Some of you new here to System wars are no doubt wondering WHY PS3 fans ( COWS ) hate the Xbox 360 so much.resulting in the countless THOUSANDS of graphix king posts and '' 360 is Doomed''posts over the years.the answer is simple, PS3 was supposed to FLAT OUT DESTROY the 360 and it didnt happen. somehow the 360 is thriving, Making BILLIONS in Hardware and Software sales, while PS3 sits on the outside looking in.( And all of this is without KZ3 and UC2, the PS3's Graphical saviors )

lets look at Sony PS3's time line of Fail.

2006 when PS3 launches it will be GAME OVER for the 360. RESULT, FAIL ( Gears of war Launches, gears ends up bieng the title that Defined Graphics this gen, and Sony fans have been wanting Xbox 360's HEAD on a Pike ever since!)

2007 is the year that PS3 overtakes the 360. RESULT, FAIL ( HALO 3 LAUNCHES, Crushing all sales figures, worldwide Halo 3 sales 10 million copies )the chances of ANY PS3 exclusive , or All of them COMBINED!, EVER catching up to this ONE title is a Lost cause at this point. but at least KZ3 looks better i suppose?


2008 when MGS4 and LBP Launches, its Over for the 360. RESULT, FAIL ( MGS4 and LBP were an Amazing games that had little to no marketing from Sony. Gears 3 launches to a Million dollar media blitz that year, we already know the rest. )

2008 When PlayStation Home launches its over for the 360. RESULT, EPIC FAIL + Self Owned! ( Playstation Home launches on PS3, AND ITS FREE! but apparently Sony doesnt seem interested in Marketing the thing?? )

2009 when Uncharted 2 drops, its REALLY over for the 360. RESULT, FAIL ( While Uncharted 2 garnered Mass critical acclaim, Multiple GOTY awards and FINALLY gave Sony fans a measure if revenge, the real Winner was Xbox 360, who walked away with over 4.9 BILLION in software and hardware sales for the games and devives division. )

2010 When God of war 3, Heavy Rain and GT5 Drop, its over for the 360. RESULT, FAIL. Xbox 360 records its Biggest year EVER in 2010! Kinect overshoots its sales estimates and all of the Top selling software in 2010 was either on the 360 or the Wii. Heavy Rain, GT5 and GOW3 are nowhere in sight on NPD'S top sellers list. Once again despite PS3 throwing its HEAVIEST punches ( God of War 3 and GT5 were THE MOST eagerly awaited ip's in PS3 HISTORY ), Microsoft STILL walked away with the Lionshare of profits. Noticing a TREND here?

2010 PlayStation Move ( in reality a Wii-Mote copy ) will signal the END of the 360. EPIC UNPRECIDENTED FAIL! ( Kinect and its bundles outsell Move nearly 5 to 1 and software nearly 13 to 1. ) This could be directly contributed to marketing, Sony spent a a few Million in Move Marketing, while MS Spent HUNDREDS of Millions. Noticing a TREND here?

2011 PlayStation 3 hacked. ramifications of this still to come. RESULT HELLA OWNED! ( this could either mean that PS3 sales will double now that the machine is hacked, or Capcom/ Activision and EA could get REALLY mad that their games are now part of an epic Free for all . you pick which one is more likely )

2011 KZ2, Infamous 2, Socom 4 and UC3 will REALLY be the END of the Xbox 360.

By now we should all know that 2011 will end just like the last 5 years.
its been a constant race of '' were catching up, and '' were closing the gap for 5 years now? When Exactly in System wars does Logic actually begin to seep in?
unlike the rest of the posters on this site, i own BOTH consoles, always have since the PS2/Xbox 1 days. but its been past time to look at reality.

the 360 isnt god like by no means, the RROD fiasco is a black mark on that console that will stick with MS forever. but the truth is hard for some to accept. and that truth is that 360 has owned PS3 this gen.
if graphics somehow make you feel better than by all means feel better. but its time for the delusion to stop and for the TRUTH to slowly seep in.

PS3 has lost exclusives, lost market share, PS Home failed miserably, PlayStation Move failed and whats worse is that The PS3 Brand doesnt ( or Will Not ) market their games to maximize sales at all, the company has operated in the RED for years ( only now turning a profit, which is the same as Closing the Barn Door after the Horses have Escaped ) and they are woefully behind the curve in software sales when compaired to its competitors. but perhaps as ive been told several times, 2011 is the year of the PS3. one can only hope.

so long 360...LOL.

wow.... there is so much truth in this thread, especially the perception that the PS3 would destroy the 360 and it hasnt. Too bad you just light a match in a room full of gasoline, because the cows are coming over the hills for you as we speak.

edit... you will hear things such as "you cant play sales" and "kinect will destroy gaming and youre rooting for it" etc... just prepare yourself for the nit picking even though the overall theme of your post has validity.

Are you new here? The problem is, your topic is based on a fanboy group, which is a no-no in SW.

nah... I think its a good retrospect of the past few years and false hype about the ps3 as compared to the 360. I find this to be a pretty interresting topic and very much related to system wars.

haha... wha? I didnt hate the ps3 at launch, matter of fact I actually thought about buying one, that is until the 600 dollar announcement dropped, then I laughed and said, "yup now I hate it". Sony would never admit this, but I honestly believe they priced that console however they wanted believing that they were the industry leader in gaming and nobody stood a chance... poor choice to take the consumer for granted.

I do aswell. Don't get me wrong. He needs to change up the title and possibly some of the post, lest TC wants it locked.

Yeah, someone is going information digging atm probably. But TC you summed up the history of system wars pretty well. If you included the Wii being shunned and the DS fans saying the Psp has no games it could be a complete timeline.

Good post. Most cows I know in real life are mad that PS3 crashed from 1st place to last. And they try their hardest to convince others that ps3 is worth owning.

Um it, was the PS fans that started in on the 360 at the launch and started the 'just wait' mantra. Nice selective amnesia...

Well there you go you hated it, never have I seen such a hate movement against a console in my life. The lems and sheep were disgustingly hating on the PS3 for a long time and went to such extremes as to create whole organizations of fakeboys to give the PS3 a worse name (the Sony Defense Force). So you really can't blame cows now, you had it coming ;)

Honestly I can understand cows frusturations, everyone thought, including me, that the PS3 would DESTROY the 360, I wanted to get one at launch, it was a no brainer ...then the price was announced ...and you know the rest, have to give props to MS for the position they are in now, I don't think we thought they had a chance surpassing Sony, yet they are doing great, it's just amazing, I always love when the underdog surprises,

There is a lot of truth in that post. Sony and their fanboys thought they had the gen wrapped up just by showing a bunch of trailers E3'05. They claimed the 360 was doomed because of the "white console curse," that next gen begins when sony says it does, or simply calling the 360 the "dreamcast 2." Now it's been almost 6 years later, and the 360 is still here.

This is not fanboy wars... Those sites have no bearing on what happened here.

The fact of the matter is though that the Ps3 is last this gen in objective data. That is why noone cares that it gets games like MGS4 or KZ2 because praise for those games is subjective.

Your looking at sales. I look at quality. PS3>>> 360. It's not like I love both consoles, (I advocated for Too Human for the longest time), It's just if you want something more then the odd one a year AAA title.. you gotta go PS3.

I dont know what a sony defense force is, but it sounds like something I have little interest in. As I said, SONY put me off from purchasing their console when I heard how much it would cost. I have a family, a house and I work hard for my money and that wasnt an option for me. never will be. My other reason for backing MS this gen, was bioware support. I didnt hate sony and I dont hate them now, I just didnt want their product at that price and to be honest, I still dont. Im more than happy with the 360 lineup and I dont see that changing. oh and speaking of system wars making things up... uh, remember when Bioshock came out? god there were a lot of cows who all of a sudden found themselves top end rigs quick... hmmm.... its the nature of the beast friend.

When's the last time a PS3 fan congradulated the 360 on anything? Everytime a 360 game gets AAA, the Sony fanboys flood it with how over rated it is or how MS paid everyone off to get the score.

So how much have you spent on your 360 since launch? Did you buy the wifi adapter? did you pay for online? chances are you already spent more on your 360 than you will ever on your PS3 due to the PS3 being an actual complete package. Also the Sony Defense Force was a bunch of lems and sheep who created a whole organization just to hate on the PS3 so why are lems complaining now??

Honestly I can understand cows frusturations, everyone thought, including me, that the PS3 would DESTROY the 360, I wanted to get one at launch, it was a no brainer ...then the price was announced ...and you know the rest, have to give props to MS for the position they are in now, I don't think we thought they had a chance surpassing Sony, yet they are doing great, it's just amazing, I always love when the underdog surprises,

Everything you just wrote is pretty much exactly how I felt and how I believe the every day, invested "hardcore" gamer felt... The over abundance of cow posting and claims of ownage even from their position is basically a direct result of feeling like because MS has decided to spend time supporting their new endevour (kinect) and not focusing on hardcore games for a bit, sony and cows have somehow pulled ahead in every concievable way with their year of sequels... I think the intelligent gamer can read between the lines and see that yup, if your a sony gamer then you have a great year, if your an xbox 360 player your gonna have a fine year too... the spin about the unbalance in the two consoles this year is waaaaaay over blown. the general public knows this.

There is a lot of truth in that post. Sony and their fanboys thought they had the gen wrapped up just by showing a bunch of trailers E3'05. They claimed the 360 was doomed because of the "white console curse," that next gen begins when sony says it does, or simply calling the 360 the "dreamcast 2." Now it's been almost 6 years later, and the 360 is still here.

Do you remember all the "Where's the next gen?" topics? PS3 fans loved taking shot at the 360's graphics because they had their CGI trailers. lol

[QUOTE="kuraimen"][QUOTE="TheEroica"] haha... wha? I didnt hate the ps3 at launch, matter of fact I actually thought about buying one, that is until the 600 dollar announcement dropped, then I laughed and said, "yup now I hate it". Sony would never admit this, but I honestly believe they priced that console however they wanted believing that they were the industry leader in gaming and nobody stood a chance... poor choice to take the consumer for granted.TheEroica
Well there you go you hated it, never have I seen such a hatement movement against a console in my life. The lems and sheep were disgustingly hating on the PS3 for a long time and went to such extremes as to create whole organizations of fakeboys to give the PS3 a worse name (the Sony Defense Force). So you really can't blame cows now, you had it coming ;)

I dont know what a sony defense force is, but it sounds like something I have little interest in. As I said, SONY put me off from purchasing their console when I heard how much it would cost. I have a family, a house and I work hard for my money and that wasnt an option for me. never will be. My other reason for backing MS this gen, was bioware support. I didnt hate sony and I dont hate them now, I just didnt want their product at that price and to be honest, I still dont. Im more than happy with the 360 lineup and I dont see that changing. oh and speaking of system wars making things up... uh, remember when Bioshock came out? god there were a lot of cows who all of a sudden found themselves top end rigs quick... hmmm.... its the nature of the beast friend.

Yes I was the same way, I was a huge fan of Sony's consoles having both a Ps1, 2, and psp. Then they announce the 600 dollar price tag that was like a middle finger to fans.

Also that is true, even my friend used to tell me that Gears of War and Mass Effect were not exclusive because he could play them on his computer... His computer could barely run Rome Total War though...

Could be, seems a little extreme though.

Maybe they are really mad

Yeah, I do. The "UT 2007" pics, and the other trailers shown then were posted all the time. The 360 was absolutely BASHED up until Sony announced their pricing the following year. Even sites like IGN were writing things like PGR3 and the rest of the 360 game lineup, looked so underwhelming compared to what Sony had shown, even if it was CGI. Then there were all the topics of how it was impossible for a console to sell successfully with a $400 price tag, etc.

So how much have you spent on your 360 since launch? Did you buy the wifi adapter? did you pay for online? chances are you already spent more on your 360 than you will ever on your PS3 due to the PS3 being an actual complete package. Also the Sony Defense Force was a bunch of lems and sheep who created a whole organization just to hate on the PS3 so why are lems complaining now??

haha... we're not gonna have a conversation like we would've in 2006 about wifi adaptors and online pricing. the point was that they were options and thats where microsoft did people right... they made it so you didnt have to purchase certain things in order to get gaming, and as far as XBL was concerned, well, this has always been a complaint... but not by lemmings or happy 360 owners. its the cows that have always been so concerned about the two cups of coffee I spend a month to have the best console online service on earth.

Good point. You can't say a year that has titles like Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Gears of War 3, Mass Effect 3, The Elder Scrolls 5, Crysis 2, The Witcher 2, Dragon Age 2 ect. is a bad year for the platform. 2011 will probably be a better year for the PS3 than the 360 but that is still an excellent lineup by any standards.

I think its good that Sony is in last place this gen. It will make them try harder. Even though they don't get the sales, they should spend million and millions developing exclusives.
