What are the most common misconceptions of non-informed gamers?

Some things I often hear.

1. Xbox Live is 50$ a Month

2. PSN Online is Very Laggy

3. Wii Doesnt have online play

4. Wii Plays DVDs

5. 360 Comes with HD DVD compatibility

6. 360 comes wireless ready

7. PS3 games can be played on PSP

Some other things many of my customers dont know..

1. Xbox Live and PSn have downloadable games and demos

2. Blu-Ray and HD DVD is not the same thing and PS3 plays Blu-Rays

I cant think of anymore but share if you have any.. I had a bad customer day I just dont get how they dont know anything about things they are going to put 300+ into.

Whos fault is this the industry for lack of product awareness or stupid casual "EA SPORTS" type gamers and parents that do not due research on things they are buying?

The PS3 is more powerful than the 360. ;)

Hey hey I'm a techie-- that's technically correct. The PS3 is more powerful than the 360. It's just harder to code on, and the graphics chip from Nvidia is pretty weak...

The most common misconception I hear... "[System] sucks because it's just not fun/has no good games on it"

That and right up with it is "PS3 doesn't have a AAAE{on gamespot}, it sucks!"

NVM, yes, I just checked up on it. The same guy that owns that site is the same guy who owns Wii60.com.

Massive failure. Please do not reference that site on system wars...

Errr-- without reading the article-- isn't SDF the site that was/is run by the same guy who runs a much more well known 360 fanboy site? I forget...

However, I'm pretty sure it is, and I'm going to leave with the same thing I said when I heard about the corruptness of the site the first time-- Sony Defence force-- giving Sony fans a bad name.

"You know why they called it the 360? Because when you see it, you turn 360 degrees and walk away."DuDisNow

Yay, that's in my sig. I was gonna say that one xD

Other one: "So what if I'm a sheep?" (or any other fanboy for that matter, just happens to be sheep in this particular quote case.)

I love the fact that people don't realize that it's an insult on system wars to be called a fanboy of any particular console...

Replace cow with sheep and the same could be argued of you, but it's true.

I was arguing the PS3 side because it was more bashed by your sheepness. If I was a cow, I wouldn't play my PC more than my PS3, and I wouldn't still play my 360. I guess you do have a 360 though.

And you should be more observant. GS is obviously biased against PS3. Once again, play the system before you criticize it.

I'm glad I amuse the ignorant. It, in return, amuses me significantly more.

and FYI I have played these co called system sellers for the ps3 and there's nothing special at all about them resistance was as mediocre and generic as can be motrostorm another short generic racer.

Thx for calling me ignorant btw I would insult someone to if I had no argument :wink:

A) I'm not a cow. Read my post again. I'm not a fanboy of any shape, I just hate the Wii, mostly due to sheep like you though.

B) I'm not crying/whining. I'm stating a fact. Once again, play a system open-mindedly before you criticize it. I agree Resistance wasn't a system seller, which is why I wasn't calling obvious later bias back then. It deserved an 8.6, but then again, you could argue that PD0 deserved a 7.0 when it came out. I can't believe I wasted my money on that game. Back to the point. Motorstorm is fun IMO, kinda a system seller. I was moreso calling bias specifically on the Ratchet & Clank: Future review. Deserved a 8.5 at LEAST, and Uncharted the same. Motorstorm deserved a 8.5 to me, as well.

C) Definition of ignorant:

1.lacking in knowledge or training; unlearned: an ignorant man.
2.lacking knowledge or information as to a particular subject or fact: ignorant of quantum physics.
3.uninformed; unaware.
4.due to or showing lack of knowledge or training: an ignorant statement.

Your stating facts eh ? please show me clear evidence that GS is bias towards the ps3 PLEASE.

And if im so ignorant how is it wrong to tate the truth ? that the ps3 is a total failure when compared to the ps2 ?

Ps2 = 1st place

ps3 = last

Ps2 = great software/hardware sales

ps3 = terrible in both

Ps2 = system sellers and AAAE

ps3 = 0 AAAE and no heavy hitters

Thats all fact right there and for you to call meignorant for saying so it quite stupid of you. You can deny and sugarcoat and make excuses all you want about the ps3 it dosent hide the fact that son dropped the ball and screwd up BIG with the ps3.

Compare those. Then go to compare GS and GR rankings on the Wii games and 360 games. Then PC, if you wish. It's BS if you claim that GS is a "hard scorer."

The keyword here is "fanboy". Fanboys don't need reasons. LuckyLy

Hence why I use it as an insult. Yet none of them really like to take it as one.

And just a slight argument against yours... The titles that deserve to be 8.0-9.5 on PS3 have been underrated. I mean, specifically, R&C:F... got a 7.0 here. Guess what? Gamerankings has it as a 89%, ditto that to Uncharted, which got a 8.0 here. Essentially 90% on GR. And this is coming from the site that gave Halo 3 a 9.5? :|

Yeah, right. Once again, I own both a 360 and a PS3, and I sure as hell have played many, many more hours on R&C:F than Halo 3. In fact, I still play R&C:F today because I find it so fun, yet I don't touch halo 3 when I go on my 360....

Y'know, yeah I do think it's quite overrated...

Not most overrated of all time, though. It's kinda fun to play IMO, but not something that'll replace a few other games I play now more. I kinda enjoyed it at a friend's house, but I'm not going to buy it personally. It's just not my type of game.

Grid is a garbage game.EVOLV3

Agreed, but only by opinion. I like Burnout Paradise more.
