Seriously, what the hell?

Let me start off by saying that out of the Sixth Generation of consoles, the only one I owned was the PS2, and as such I consider myself (for the moment at least) a 'Sony first' video game player. I do not own a 360 or a Wii and plan to buy a PS3 when it launches here in March. So by anyone's measure, I would be more inclined to be biased towards the PlayStation brand.

But the more and more I read posts and comments about how the 'Editors of Gamespot hate the PlayStation 3' or how 'They are so biased that they only post bad Sony news and review PS3 games lower' I get more pissed off. Let me make this perfectly clear: Gamespot is not against the PlayStation.

Want to know why only bad Sony news is being posted? Perhaps because all news about Sony has been bad for the last 6 months. How about why PS3 games are being reviewed lower? Because Gundam, Genji and NBA 07 are awful games.

Tony Hawk's Project 8 was reviewed lower on the PS3 because it had no online play and every other version did. Look at the wider picture, Sony had a bad launch, there is one game worth playing on the PlayStation 3, and Sony has been messing up in a major way since E3.

How about why 360 games are being reviewed higher? They are better, that is why. That is by no means whatsoever saying that the 360 is a better console, but it has been out for a year already, and collected some real gems in its catalog in that time. Gears of War, Viva Pinata, Dead Rising and Rainbow Six Vegas all look phenomenal and a console which has been out for a month cannot really compete game quailty wise with a console which has been out for 13 months. By this time next year, the PS3 will have a fantastic collection of games and will be rivaling, if not already surpassing the 360 in terms of quality.

The games which are out now on the PS3 have, for the most part, been rushed out the door to make it to launch. They cannot compare to the 360's current lineup as much as you would want them to.

So in the meantime, quit posting ridiculous accusations towards the Gamespot Editorial Staff and look at the wider picture. The PlayStation 3 will be a great console, it just needs some time.
