I acutally do agree with some of your points. The PS3 is now at the CORE level of online capabilties and even exceeds them in some areas in comparison to there xbox live competitor.
2 Additional Features:
-Cross Game Voice Messages
-Cross Game 1 on 1 RealTime Chat
*These are icing on the cake features but still create a smoother community experience.
With those 2 small additions and Home there really isnt much else to desire. Some pe...
It is the truth.
110% AGREE ON TATOOS. My fiance has 6 of them. And she is getting them ALL removed. She doesnt want her kids to see them and then they themselves want the. She admits it was a mistake and the body is not meant to be destroyed. Some people call it "Art" but its takign a wonderful creation known as your body and destroying it.
I agree 110% with everything you said. I remember the struggles and headaches I had awaiting my prized PS3. All i got was hardships and headaches from the inter-webs. I am talking over a year Before Launch and all anyone ever said was how the PS3 would fail.
This trend continued until Quite Frankly just around Uncharted, ALMOST 2 FREAKIN YEARS. I acutally left N4G because of the Xbox Blabber that would drive my love for the sony gaming system into an anger toward xbox fans, bec...
WATCH IT HAPPEN;
I made this prediction first. :D
If this is the case, PS3 will be sold out throughout the Holidays.
How did they get the characters into some of those poses? People are very creative lol.
The PS3 is a better value for what it offers. Its a smarter investment into your entertainment system. Also, the exclusive games PS3 has leading the pack are more Varied in there nature and very high quality.
(NOTE: This my MY percieved view of big titles. Not based on rating but on the Experience the game offers)

Uncharted (Action/Adventure)

I think alot of xbox fanboys and even ps3 fanboys are really missing what home is going to bring. Its going to create a Wonderful Virtual Abstraction into Game development, Buisness, Media, Social meetings, Weekly/monthly HOMECASTS, Collection Fever, Abililty to Maintain the anonomous feel while Visually seeing someone else (This is very important, alot of people dont want to see real people) It takes them out of the experience and/or can hinder it. Burnout paradise's MugShot is a cool featur...
However, Is this really what gaming is becoming? Its Idiotic at best. And this is in NO WAY healthy or safe. And ofcourse the PANTING guy "Needs to complete the race" meanwhile his breathing is all screwed up hes not paced and his muscles are getting a false sense of use. Notice theres no weight being transfered to his kneeds no movement of legs just a "Foot Patting" type movement.
This just isnt good in any sense of the word. NOT TO MENTION ITS THE STUPIDI...
I think the American Boxart is much better.
Quore is a 3rd Party thing. Not directly from Sony...........
Its like having a Playstation magazine to download with some sponsored content.
The key is "Sackboy" is a very marketable ikon. I Hope thy have 80gig bundles for Christmas, because it will sell a load of PS3's.
I want the acutal Kratos and Nariko Sackboy dolls.
And also the in-game skins. :D
Also, it sounds like 2 16yr olds with an xbox fanboy bias (seeing as how they cant afford a PS3) writing nonsense on a blog.
This is what the internet has become, a garage filled with garbage and old boxes you need to weigh through in-order to get to the valuable stuff.
infact i'm willing to say ther internet as a whole has become a place for more Bias's, more fiction, more opinions, more arguments and more young adults-kids whose parents thinks its ok for johnn...
Theres being "Sexy" and "Tasteful" then
theres being "Wierd" and "Tasteless"....
These are the latter.
IP Temp Bans or Perma Bans and it will stop really quick.
I have SSHD and 100% Trophies. There is no Platinum. The only PSN games to have Platinum's are the ones with a BLU-RAY release as well.
Ie. Socom, Warhawk etc...
I have all the Hardcore Trophies. I'm already teh "ELITE IDIOT" if you will.
I'm making an argument for the more Average gamer. So your statement is moot.
Should be "Fun and Challenging" But Attainable.
Should NOT be "Nigh Impossible", or "Luck Driven" or a "Detrement to persuading people to colledct them"
By creating such unbalance trophies and such far stretches your getting people who are gonna start to say "Forget this, I did this once in SSHD and once in Eden I'm not dealing with this CHORE again"
Hence you've turn a FUN expereince into a FRUSTRA...
When people start hosting there own weekly/monthly events to review games, make talks shows, etc...
People just dont really grasp How BIG this is going to be. Maybe not day 1. But if you put a bunch of people in a community, and give them the tools, the creative ones will shine and everyone else will be illuminated so they tool will shine. I just made that up cool. :-P
You heard it hear first.
