Credit for your mature response, JOY, although I never implied that you reported certain stories, only that some of your fellow 360 supporters did.
However I feel that perhaps a reason why "sony loyalists are notorious offenders of picking and choosing the news", as you put it, is likely because N4G has a larger proportion of PS3 supporters than 360 (which I doubt you would disagree with), rather than a higher common propensity among them to censor the news. It only tak...
Look JOY, I'm not disagreeing with your point... but to make the accusation: "....childish Sony loyalists react by trying to censor the news according to their personal emotions" is a little on the hypocritical side, wouldn't you agree?

Hmmm, that kind of short-sightedness makes me think of certain companies like, I don't know... GM or Ford? Because some might say they shared similar thoughts. Check the newspaper to see how well that direction of financial strategy got them.
Bl00dVayn3, maybe its best you pushed back from the table this time and call it a day. From someone observing this argument between the two of you, your not really helping yourself here.
Darkride66, bubbles for your logical contributions to what should have been an interesting discussion. Its good to see that sometimes, just sometimes, N4G posters can indeed provide well thought out discussions instead of hitting the disagree button and running away.
Very well, Mr SNP. For starters, I did not gloat about my 'intellectual economic intelligence', but rather the author's lack thereof. Selective interpretation can be misleading, my friend.
I will keep this simple, since several posters, including XboxOz360, has already stated much of what I will write. The PS3 is not manufactured in Australia. By my understanding, much of it is manufactured and assembled in China, Japan, or both. Since shipping costs are involved, then comes in e...
I agree with XboxOz360. It seems this author, and several readers replying to this story, have never heard of Economies of Scale, taught at High School level Economics.
I'm not going out on a limb to defend SCE here, but in this circumstance the author appears to have an economic intellectual ability of a 5 year old. There are many basic factors involved (much of that is listed above), rather than just looking at the exchange rate and being an armchair economist.

You don't mean Syphon Filter (for the 360) do you? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty confident Syphon Filter is a exclusive franchise owned and developed by Sony's first party studios - I'm looking at Syphon Filter Dark Mirror on my PSP right now.
In addition, Syphon Filter (at least the newer PSP versions) is a 3rd person Stealth action game, while Ninja Gaiden 2 is a "Hack & Slash" game...

"The problem with this generation is the power of the internet." – That’s the smartest comment I’ve read on N4G today, mate.
There has always been fierce rivalry in the past as well as the present, with supporters on both sides as passionate and unyielding as their predecessors. But like NJShadow said, the power of the internet, (and more specifically) the accessibility and freedom of information, has now allowed for any man with a computer and internet connection to ...
I doubt I`m the only one finding your comments alittle ironic, since it was you that posted this comment an hour ago:
"Best Graphics: Gears 2. Nuff said.
Don't come and cry Sony fanboys."
http://www.n4g.com/NewsCom-...
And yet you are the one that appears to be doing the crying here. Perhaps you might wish to put your foot ...
"It would be hilarious seeing dudes arguing over which is better, later to find out both were from the same system"...
Agreed, although the funny thing is, this *kind of* already happened with the infamous PS3/360 Grid comparision when both videos was PS3. Of course, GameTrailers hadn`t actually done it on purpose and was subsequently snapped, as far as my memory goes, so probably not very funny from their point of view.
Point taken though, it would ke...
I would hesitate to say that Sony were somehow "immune to such scrutiny"... If you were referring to fanboys, perhaps, but hypocrisy flows both ways so your argument is moot. A quick look at N4G headlines for the past few days indicates to me that Sony is under just as much scrutiny and negative news as any other beloved company out there.
-- This message was PM-ed to me from Kuest, as he has run out of bubbles to reply. His reply is directed at my above post and is unaltered as follows: --
In case you failed to notice, i didn't have any bubbles, so I am unsure as to why you would claim "[I] don't have the time do so [debate] again". Nor do I have the capacity, my friend. But, through your generosity, I may earn that chance, as it is only fair that I respond to your accusations.
The first...
I think perhaps what most are taking offence to here, is the implication that the PS3 will end up like the Titanic - which according to my memory, sank to the bottom of the ocean in one of the biggest maritime disasters of our time.
CNN therefore is implying that Sony has gone from complete dominance to one of the biggest failures of the world - 0% market share - which they haven’t. It is like comparing the PS3 to the US Auto industry – once a former glory, now months away from...
I'm alittle confused by your 1st post statement: "Remember Sony was doing alright compared to what they were doing despite Sony always losing money up untill Sony's competition adjusted their stradegy."
So... Sony was doing alright, but always losing money? Please clarify what you mean, if you could be so kind.
By the way, your 2nd post shows little understanding of branding and price point differentiation. For instance: Porsche sell the model 911, a good p...
Bubbles, Blademask. That ranks up there with one of the more humble posts I have read in a long time. You forgot the posters JOY and PP... they seem to figure frequently.
Yes, many people here seem to relish in complaining about the 'PS3 fans' but conveniently forget that last year this site was overrun by 360 fans - of which, are doing most of the complaining now... who knows, maybe it will change again next year. Personally I believe: don't give it if you can't take it - Except...
For once, I agree with Bloodmask.
Isaac, that rant was pretty poor and to think that all cultures share the same preferences as you shows little understand of basic dynamics of different cultures. One would hope that we live in a world that embraces different tastes and diversity, and not succumb to stereotyping like you.
Correct me if Im wrong SC, but isn't the Cloven the "original, pure breed" of Chimera?
On the level set in the Canyons in the single player campaign, Dr Malikov talks about the original strains of Chimera, and he said; "I believe you call them, the Cloven"... There are also some frozen Cloven in the same room. But if you meant why you didn't get to fight them, good question.
