2007 Gaming Letdowns

"Letdown: The PS3 In General

Why: Sony fanboys love pointing out that the Xbox 360 had similar problems in its first year, but fail to disclose that a successful company learns from the mistakes of its competitors. While the Xbox 360 was blazing new trails with downloadable content, achievements and a great network infrastructure, albeit with some speedbumps along the way, Sony appears to have never once taken note. Here we are a year later with little signs of improvement. The PlayStation Network remains a poorly designed environment, not a single game has justified the existence of the PS3 and every week seems to start with a new SKU announcement. It's clear the PS3 was rushed to market without proper focus on how to win, if for no other reason than Sony believed the PlayStation logo was all they needed. "

LoLLOLLOLLOLOOLOLOLOLLOLOL! Saw that coming! Good thing nobody spent $600 on that crap! hahahah That's funny cuz people did! They call themselves Sony Fans what they really are though is idiots!

Mass Effect was awesome man I was expecting a little more from it though. Its a game every rpg fan should play though.

Dr Pepper6720d ago

Honestly, the game (Mass Effect) is incredible (in my opinion). I think the story is awesome and the gameplay is really fun. It has never frozen on me and I have had a framerate problem once. The one thing that kind of gets on my nerves after a while is the texture pop-in (at least after you load a game).

Overall, It's my favorite game of the year and no RPG fan (or gamer in general) should pass it up. I can't wait for Mass Effect 2.

hotshot1276720d ago

but failed to mention that microsoft hasnt exactly fixed the rrod either. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... ...

but what can you do, since everybodys old arguments about the ps3 are falling apart, they have to bring up nonsense and try to get all there anger out before the year is over

PS3 owned again.

littletad6720d ago

Ouch. What's worse is it's pretty much true. But hey, 2008 is on the horizon. It might not be enough, but there's still some great games to be played.

xboxlj6720d ago

I feel like the 360 is a letdown. My system is in repair for the second time after getting this past update. And even though they claim to have a 3 year warranty, I had to pay $100 because I don't have all 3 red lights. And the idiots at M$ customer service can't understand English and are very incompetent.
Therefore I am going to purchase a PS3, 2008 will be the year that Sony takes over.
Time to change my avatar.

fopums6720d ago

biggest letdown in 2007?

GAMING JOURNALISTS

christ, the PS3 had its issues but so has every console, if your riding the negative press at SONY garnered at this point your not a journalist, Your a fanboy with a glorified myspace.

Slayer OP6720d ago

its not even out yet. Someone fire this guy!

tony6720d ago

i own mass effect. it taking dust in my living room.

TwissT6720d ago (Edited 6720d ago )

WOW Ps3 in general... its the fricken fact that he said "not a single game has justified the existence of the PS3" is what pisses me off, i guess he thinks Uncharted, Ratchet, Heavenly Sword, Resistance, Eye of Judgement arn't games. But other than that the ps3 did ok but 2008 is around the corner and the ps3's lineup is looking awesome
