I am far from a Sony fanboy (you can check my post history) but I won't even waste my time reading that article. Any article about Sony from the inquirer is biased. They really seem to have something against Sony. As for this thread, some valid points have been made. Charlie made a good point about 3rd Party companies getting scared when they see the difference in marketshare between companies. Look at the fact that companies are more willing to do a game on PS2 than PS3, but yet they will make it for 360 and not Xbox. I always see people say PS3 has only been out for a few months, give it a chance. You have to take into consideration developers are trying to make money now. They can't wait much longer. Microsoft forced their hand by coming out a year early and having about 10mil sold by the time Sony has 1mil. Also there's the fact that Nintendo is selling ridiculous amounts of systems right now. Nintendo is doing the numbers people thought Sony would be doing right now. The funny thing is that people are saying things will pick up when the PS3 gets more games, but what about when the Wii get's more games.
Not everyone wants a FPS, Warhawk is a FLYING game, yeah they added a few new vehicles and that will add to some of the fun but addign full on FPS levels? that sucks, if I wanted to "break up the flying" I'd turn it off and go play another damn game. Alpha2
I was about to say the same thing. People buy flying games to fly, not get out and hoof it on foot. I remember playing Starfox 64 and Crimson Skies. There was never a moment where I said "man I wish I could get out the plane an shoot that guy" instead of maneuvering around and blowing him up.
[QUOTE="nickmag"][QUOTE="deadkingdg"]Seriously, I think most people who said they won't buy it anymore are just X360/Wii fanboys.
1. It will be fixed, just like it was in NA. 2. MOST games will still work 3. Since you already have a PS2, just keep it 3 months longer, that's more than it took for it to be fixed in NA. 4. All big games will surely be Sony's priority, so you only have chances of having problems if you like some darker games that no one played. 5. The PS3 is released with Resistance, Motorstorm, Oblivion, FEAR and more. You'll have enough on your hands to keep of the PS2 THE game you want to play if fixed. 1. Sony don't seem to care about Europe or they wouldn't have done it in the first place 2. MOST games won't work. Hence the "limited". 3. Some people have to sell their PS2 to be able to afford a PS3 -_- 4. Sometimes the games hardly anyone played are the best. Psychonaughts and Beyond Good And Evil anyone? 5. If you jut spend $850 on a console you've hardly got any spare money lying about to purchase $90 games. You bring up very valid points but I'm not sure your point of view will be seen in this thread. I bet most of the people that voted aren't even from Europe.
instead of pointing fingers at Ubisoft and EA, how about pointing fingers at Sony. Why are they not going out of their way to make sure demos are on PSN?LEGEND_C4A
Now that would make sense. How about you send an email to Sony and maybe they can do something about it.
[QUOTE="donalbane"]I guess your experiences are valid, but for my purposes my Media Center PC that I built to work in concert with the 360 has been reliable and does everything I need it to. And it doesn't crash on me... much. :P So why is there no competition? What about Macs... why aren't they considered competitors [sic]? Is it because they don't allow people to make clones of their hardware or what? That's exactly why. If people could just build their owns Macs as easy as they could build a PC things might be different. Plus Windows gets all the game support. You can't avoid it really. I do agree that Windows isn't as bad as some make it out to be. A lot of people blame Windows for crashing when it's really the fault of some hacked program that they downloaded from a Warez site.
My 4th 360 just broke thanks to crackdown and im not gonna lie....im fed up. So i see the ps3 has most of the same games minus the achievements (im a whore). So i think to myself maybe its time to toss the 360 and try out the ps3. Anyone have any positive or negatives on the ps3?genfuyung
I went through 3 PS2s and I'm on my 2nd 360. I didn't have to buy anything after the 1st one because I had insurance though. I can't believe you actually bought 4 360s. Even if you didn't 4 is too much. I know if the 360 I have now fails I may be missing out on their upcoming games. I did it with my PS2. After the 3rd one failed I stuck to buying games for my Gamecube & Xbox. I'm waiting now to get a black Wii (pause) and a PS3 when it's worth it.
My cousin and I ran out an pre-ordered the game right after playing the demo a few times. For me even if the game was ok I would still get it for the Halo 3 beta but that didn't even factor into it. Plus my cousin hates Halo, so you know he really likes this game. It's funny because he can't stand GTA but he liked Saints Row and he loves Crackdown.
