You understand don't you that if Sony did that, that would be the biggest mistake they could have ever made. Giving Microsoft even more time to secure 3rd party support, being unable to acquire the first party support they needed, and taking so long to enter into a new generation of gaming consoles would have cost Sony a lot more in the end than launching a $600 console.
"Plus they could have worked on the software which is still not up to par with the competition.&q...
It is the M.O. of a 360 fanboy with no real argument to continue griping about a feature that A)Was always optional, B)Has no effect on the primary function of the console as it was intended to be, C)Was barely known about even among those who COULD use it, D)Was used by less than 1% of those that could use it, and E)Was primarily only used by special interests groups who, to this day, still have the option to use it with either avoiding the updates or having access to the special SKU's t...
When you know that the hardware is the most prone to being faulty, and you can say "hmmm, well it's only $200", not only does that make you a sucker, it also makes you a tightwad yes.
Besides, Nintendo has the 2 highest rated games this gen, and Sony has the highest rated exclusives so your example fails.
*EDIT* Wait a minute, why did I even bother saying Sony has the highest rated exclusives? Just because it's true, doesn't mean I shoul...
it's the tightwad way. they exist the world over.

One Republic FTW
And Microsoft still hasn't addressed the real problem. It isn't hypocrisy to point out that MS is CONTINUING to make the same mistake on purpose. And I thought that we were in a new generation of game consoles? I didn't realize people were playing the PS2 and Xbox. I thought they were playing the PS3 and Xbox 360. Sorry, my bad. *rolls eyes*
MS: "Blu-Ray isn't needed."
MS: "HDMI isn't needed."
MS pre-2010: "Sure Wifi capability is included.. for $100."
MS: "3D won't catch on... but we still have it... just in case."
just saying.
Except you said "good" product.
PC VERSION!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHA!!!!
Oh man, I'm tempted to give you a bubble for that. REALLY tempted.
He's a PC elitist who thinks PC is the Messiah to gaming and nothing can stand a chance. The game could be photo-realistic, 3D, and in resolutions the human mind can't comprehend, but as long as it's on a console evrfighter will never be "impressed".
Luckily, no one has to care what he thinks about it. I wish N4G would have "PC Elitist troll" as an option for bubbling someone down.
OT: I remember fanboys saying that the FFXIII ...
Let's take a game and make it conform to a lower standard of quality so that everyone can play trash. That is a much better idea than adhering to the principle of exclusively high end quality production.
Because, as we know, the average gamer prefers a sub-standard quality game to an exclusively developed, high production value title.
Now everyone knows, and knowing is half the battle.
Source? And also, how have you disproven my point? Can you prove that the PS3 userbase DOESN'T have too much variety?
Final Fantasy, no matter how bad the game may be, always sells. Pedigree is the reason. No, not the dog food.
Fits your comment perfectly. Bubbles.
Nintendo loves telling people what they like. They always have.
This is probably fake. And even if it isn't, there are a few things to discuss about this. First, Sony could probably easily change the way Dynamic Themes work on the PS3, rendering this particular hack useless, or they can change what information is allowed to be accessed via USB using firmware. And even excluding all of that, the amount of work required means that most won't bother with this anyway. The thing about hacking the PS3 is that to get any results, you have to do things th...
Because the EyeToy wasn't out before the Wii... oh wait.
You shouldn't be too proud that Halo and Gears sell that much. Seeing as how those are basically the only exclusive heavy hitters of the only genre that the 360 is capable of selling adequate numbers with. Take a look at games from any other genre on the 360 and you'll see they tank, and heaven forbid you release a no name shooter and expect it to sell as well.
PS3 gamers have too much variety to buy, we have to pick and choose what to buy first among the f*ckton of A...
You know Sony is doing something right when Snukadaman (yes, I remember that name from way back) still reaches for something to bash with.
And what better than Microsoft's very own gifts of a nice assortment of scratched discs coupled with a very Christmasy Red Dot of Death to go with your new Xbox 360S. Why, if he hurries, he can avoid the Christmas rush and pay $50 a year to play online games, paying twice for a full game. And, if he acts now, he'll get the priceless satisfaction of knowing he purchased hardware of substandard quality, manufactured right in the good ol' Communist Republic of China. China, where 5 y...
