This is not flame bait just want to hear people opinions on why they support Sony.

First my opinion. I never supported sony because I don't like their lying ways. however I decided to buy a playstation system this gen.I missed out on way to many rpgs last gen and it hurts. The only problem is the price I will have to wait until the price goes down. Sony is actually a great publisher because I can only say basically all of the new IP's and most innovative games last gen came from them. I never experienced any of those games I hated the playstation for destroying sega. Obviously it is not Sony fault, but i blame them anyway. So I am going to join the playstation universe when the system price goes down. I can't wait to play games like ico, SOTC, okami, and hopefully God of War 3.

I'll enjoy my 360 until then.

I love Sony because I was brought on Sony. Simply, I think they make good products. Except for the stereo in my car, every electronics I have is made by Sony. I believe in loyalty too. It's what makes a good person better.

Games (Quality and Variety), customer support, hardware quality, media functions. Now, this does not mean I won't support another company for similar reasons. If I had the money I'd have a 360 as well.

Yeah except Microsoft can be believed when they say anything ever. Anything Sony says you have to take with a grain of salt and that's a fact.

why do people like you keep saying you don't want to support bill gates. I thought you was a gamer. Gamer support games not companies or who it is run by. I want a PS 3, yet I don't like Sony lying ways.

I support Sony based on my own personal experiences. SNES = God I hated it. Nintendo is finished. PSX = God I loved it. Sony is OK. Xbox = God I loved it. Microsoft is OK. BUT! Near the end of the console's life, it began experiencing disc reading errors. Not cool at all having to pray each time I inserted a game hoping it would work. Couple that experience with the whispers that the Xbox360 isn't the most stable console in the world (red rings of death anyone?) and bam, Sony is the only one left. Simple huh?

MS is not bad because they made the Xbox360. They care what the customer want, and not having to force you to buy an unproven format. They also have better online. That shows how much they care for the gamers. MS is doing everything right. It's like we're telekinesis or something. I love MS and you should too.

So you believe in being loyal to someone who just lied to you. I would never be loyal to a company like Sony or any of the other companies because none of them care about you. If they did they would make a system that is easy on the wallet and provided quality games. I don't care about blu-ray so I don't see the need for it. If it was standard I would understand, but it is not and find blu-ray and hd dvd movies overrated.

I can understand loyalty making a good person better but to a friend/family/partner, not a corporation that's making money off of me.

With that said, the reason why people support Sony is the same reason why people support Nintendo and Microsoft: They like their product. It's not that difficult to understand. Why someone would blindly support them is an issue that we would spend all day discussing.

Sony never lied to me. I knew what what in the PS3 the day I bought it. The key word is: "bought it." marinate on it.

sony has the most experience, except maybe for nintendo, but the fact is that the PS2 will probably go down in history as the best game console ever. seriously, it's still selling better than the 360 today. I trust sony to get the same kind of success with their new strategy this time.

Blindly support = People who would swear by their company to the point where they act out as apologists. Also, they take any criticism to their chosen company personally and will never admit when their chosen company has screwed up.

Ok you found out that the pS 3 will not make the visuals of those Killzone and Motorstorm CGI trailer. But they told you that those were the visuals. I consider that lying. I would have bought a PS 3 at launch if the game delivered on the visuals like that. I would have believe $600 was worth it. However i find most 360 games to look better then most PS 3 games. The only reason I give the PS 3 a chance is because I've seen some impressive stuff that interest me, but nothing that couldn't be done on a 360. Paying $600 I expected the Killzone trailer graphics.

I bought my PS3 two weeks ago...When they said it was CGI. How does that make you feel right now?

Then people should take that attitude with the 360. Saying they don't support Microsoft, but the support the 360. I'm tired of hearing threads about how the 360 sucks, doesn't have any good games when it is far from the truth, and because they don't want to give bill gates money.

actually i like Sony more than M$. at least Sony has some amazing TV's and movies. but windows has made me cold towards ms. especially including DX10 in vista and then the $300 price tag for vista which is basically dx10 (because most of the other features are unnecessary).

there's yet to be any product I've purchased from Sony that turned into a disappointment. 

and the Playstation franchise has been nothing short of stellar.

if you believe the hype, you deserve to get what's coming to you,  sorry.

um I don't feel anything. That is because you spend your time in the forums. How about those who believe games will look like that on the PS 3 that do not spend time in the forum. Heck there are people in the forum who believe killzone will look like the trailer. Obviously your an inform gamer and I can assume didn't fall for the hype. However I can't see why anybody would want a PS 3 right now. What games warrant it purchase right now. I bought the 360 because it had PD0, Kameo, Condemn, and DOA4 within its launch window. Besides resistance why should someone fork over $600 to play the same multiplat games until good exclusive games come out. I'm not saying you should of bought a 360, but why not wait until there are more worthwhile games to play that you can only get on that system.

You know what I don't like fanboys. I thought you was just someone who like to play fun games, but you think every 360 game sucks. Why do you even own a 360. Get rid of it. You shouldn't own a system you just don't like.

  1. Sony never killed a console and force people to buy another
  2. All best games end up on Sony machines
  3. Sony allways wins
  4. The biggest variety of games are on Sony platforms

i bought the Xbox and im not gonna buy a X360
this gen i only gonna buy a PS3

* 5 gen - PS vs 2
PlayStation - 106,49 millions
N64 - 32,93 millions
Sega Saturn - 10 millions

* 6 gen - PS2 vs 3
PlayStation 2 - 115,36 millions
Xbox - 24 millions
GameCube - 21,52 millions
Dreamcast - 10,6 millions

* 7 gen - PS3 vs 1
wii is on a diferent market, not vs PS3 or X360, so time, really, you think PS3 is gonna lose? double check those numbers

That's not the case at all. When people bash the 360, they bash the machine itself. But When people bash the PS3, they (usually) bash Sony for their fake promises, lies....

Truth is you don't want to see a reason to buy a PS3. If I told you that "I" bought for just the Blu-ra player. You'll probably say something like "YOU" don't need a blu-ray therefore no ones need a PS3. Keep in mind you did say "why ANYBODY would want a PS3 right now". So, you not speaking for yourself you now speaking for anybody. Somebody my want it for a Blu-ray, Genji, Sixaxis, HDMI, PSN Network. I personally bought it for the games like MGS4 and VF5/Tekken6. This lying business is just foolish. An lame excuse to hate a company. But hey I'm not speaking for ANYBODY. I speaking for personal experience.

There systems have in the past had some of the best support I've seen on consoles. Very few of my libraries for other consoles have touched that of Sony's PS products. Realize that I'm not really supporting Sony, but more supporting their support.

To be honest I don't know how someone could pass up on either the PSX or PS2 in the past, or how a gamer couldn't be interested in many of the greatest games during those times? Oh well to each his/her own I guess.

  1. Sony never killed a console and force people to buy another
  2. All best games end up on Sony machines
  3. Sony allways wins
  4. The biggest variety of games are on Sony platforms

i bought the Xbox and im not gonna buy a X360
this gen i only gonna buy a PS3

* 5 gen - PS vs 2
PlayStation - 106,49 millions
N64 - 32,93 millions
Sega Saturn - 10 millions

* 6 gen - PS2 vs 3
PlayStation 2 - 115,36 millions
Xbox - 24 millions
GameCube - 21,52 millions
Dreamcast - 10,6 millions

* 7 gen - PS3 vs 1
wii is on a diferent market, not vs PS3 or X360, so time, really, you think PS3 is gonna lose? double check those numbers

I can agree xbox was killed off, but if microsoft wanted to win the next gen they had to do it. I mean even nintendo killed off the gamecube, and they are doing better this gen too. PS 3 is hurting because of the success of the PS 2. You should still consider a 360 because it actually more diverse then I expected it to be. Xbox was a terrible when it comes to diversity. The 360 remedy that early on and they even said they are not going to be in a rush to go into next gen again.

What people don't understand, is you owe Sony nothing. They didn't make those amazing game that defined their generations. Other companies did, because of FINANCIAL VIABLITY. more consumerbase, means higher sale, means more money able to be invested. Sony won the PS generation because of Nintendos blunders and arrogance. They won the PS2 era thanks to their headstart, and a naive public who believed in toy story graphics, that won't be seen until at least next next generation.
Sony lies blatantly to your face, and expects you to believe. Their products are, while of good quality, are becoming exceedingly expensive. In virtually every field sony is in, there are cheaper, better alternatives.

They do not deliver on their promises, and their goods are way overpriced. Did they consult game developer in developing the PS3 as did MS? No. They slapped together a half a**ed proccessor, and hyped it ridiculously.
Now they're expecting you to wage a fool's war with Toshiba.

have loyalty to game developers, not Sony, or MS.

[QUOTE="too_much_eslim"] um I don't feel anything. That is because you spend your time in the forums. How about those who believe games will look like that on the PS 3 that do not spend time in the forum. Heck there are people in the forum who believe killzone will look like the trailer. Obviously your an inform gamer and I can assume didn't fall for the hype. However I can't see why anybody would want a PS 3 right now. What games warrant it purchase right now. I bought the 360 because it had PD0, Kameo, Condemn, and DOA4 within its launch window. Besides resistance why should someone fork over $600 to play the same multiplat games until good exclusive games come out. I'm not saying you should of bought a 360, but why not wait until there are more worthwhile games to play that you can only get on that system.shungokustasu
Truth is you don't want to see a reason to buy a PS3. If I told you that "I" bought for just the Blu-ra player. You'll probably say something like "YOU" don't need a blu-ray therefore no ones need a PS3. Keep in mind you did say "why ANYBODY would want a PS3 right now". So, you not speaking for yourself you now speaking for anybody. Somebody my want it for a Blu-ray, Genji, Sixaxis, HDMI, PSN Network. I personally bought it for the games like MGS4 and VF5/Tekken6. This lying business is just foolish. An lame excuse to hate a company. But hey I'm not speaking for ANYBODY. I speaking for personal experience.

No that is not the truth I buy a gaming console for games not the format it uses. You bought the PS 3 as a cheap Blu-ray player, understandable. I not going to decide what format I use until one becomes standard. Obviously you would have bought a PS 3 if there were no games at launch because you looked at it as a cheap blu-ray player. I never said you was wrong for your purchase just didn't understand why someone would buy it now when there aren't a lot of quality games atm to buy it. You say blu-ray so I understand.

the topic of this thread gives just as much validity to the question: "Why do people support Microsoft?" as it does to its own premise. this thread died in the womb. send it back.

Sony's a corp. like any other who primary goal is to make money. I mean it pisses me off that they killed off one of the best, if not the best, localization company (read: Working Designs), but thats not going to stop me from playing awesome/great/good games. Simply put I'm a gamer, I care about the games, anything else I can swallow my pride (or whatever you would like to call it).

Why are people trying to make Sony look so bad, we all know MS is worse and yet nobody talks about it.

OXIIIIXO

Have you seen the charity work Bill Gates & wife are doing...... when was the last time Sony put time, effort & money into charity.... Bill Gates has also gone on record that the majority of his funds will go to charity when he passes.

All the MS / BIll Gates haters are just jealous they arent filthy stinking rich, too.
