I think Sony really screwed up with the marketing of Home. Not a knock against the product because it has been turning the corner and will one day be pretty cool. But by releasing an unfinished product, Sony will never be able to capture that "Buzz" that a product needs out the door to become relevant.
Magazines already did there reviews on Home so it's not like they will all once again do reviews on it again. News stations won't run special segments on Home and the mess...
I've never seen Sony Fanboys so scared of anything like this before! Any mention of Natal puts them in a frenzy.
It must be because it's generating so much Buzz that there scared that if it does possibly work, it's a Game changer like nothing else before. It's getting people who never talk about gaming to actually listen. Quite the oppisite of the Sony control which has generated no buzz.
I still love to hear when Sony fanboys say, "yea, but it's still selling as fast as....." Only system it's selling as fast of is the GameCube. Numbers don't lie!
This will change gaming forever! Good or bad is still to be debated!
So with your arguement, Naughty Dog and Guerilla are lazy too for not developing for the 360???? Stop with all the crying already!
Anyways, the PS3 is self admitted to be harder to develop for. And we all know time is money, so sometimes it's not financially feasible to have to hire or spend the time training people to perfect the PS3 development process. That is why you get the quality you've been seeing. It will improve over time though.
Negative opinions from someone who doesn't own a 360 and a self admitted Sony Fanboy??? LOL
Anyways, I think the new system is awesome!! Took a day or so to get usto but now I LOVE it! Hope they just add to it and leave it how it is. And how cool is it gonna be when we'll be able to operate it with Natal! Sweet!!
The main problem with this site is that everyone sees the market thru there eyes. The fact that we're even on this site makes us hardcore gamers. Love them or hate them you gotta admire MicroSofts brilliance in marketing. They have positioned themselves for another outstanding holiday season even after being doubted earlier.
They have big name games coming up that will appeal to the casual gamers. Halo, Forza, Splinter Cell. They also have great games for the hardcore market as well li...
"people don't give a crap about this title except for people who only have a 360"
Same can be said about GT5, "only people who own PS3's care about Gran Turismo." And the fact that there are more 360's out there doesn't help your arguement does it!
I don't think I like the direction this game is taking Max Payne! Jungles??? WTF!!
But as a Payne fan I'm gonna buy the game regardless. I'm a hoer like that!
Can't freakin wait for this game! First day buy for me!!
Reasons like this is why M.S, is winnig the console race so far in the U.S. Even though they have a weaker product they know how to market the hell out of it!!! Kudos to them!!
You guys sweating a little bit there?? LOL
And I love how Sony fanboys try to compare Natal with a EyeToy! LMFAO!!! Dude, the eyetoy is equivalent to the Vision Cam that MS already has on the market. that is why you can play games like Your in the movies with it already.
Natal Is SOOOO much more!! That is why everyone is talking about it. If it was just what you say, MS would already have it out in the market making money off of it. It's so advanced that the...
Too bad America is the media capital of the world! And you just happen to be on an American webpage by the way. Take your hate elsewhere.
Sony fans can cry all they want but the mass perception is that MS won because they created the most buzz and set themselves up to win another Christmas season.
EVERY news organization was talking about the Natal the following day! It was that groundbreaking that they were talking about it everywhere!
YES, Sony had a very good presentation for us Gamers...but that's the thing, only for us gamers. At this point of the game we don't really matter in terms of sales because...
The other article you guys were reffering to was just a blog on Cnet. It wasn't anything official.
Huh???
What's to disagree with? It clearly say "The Gadget BLOG" on the top of that article!!! Silly kids!
Not a proper venue??? Didn't they announce pricedrops here before? I'm thinking it was just bad choice of words.
Looking forward to one before the holiday season like MS did last year to spike sales.
I think MS won because they created the most buzz and set themselves up to win another Christmas season.
EVERY news organization was talking about the Natal the following day! I mean even my mother who knows absolutely nothing about gaming heard about it on Good Morning America.
YES, Sony had a very good presentation for us Gamers...but that's the thing, only for us. We already have our gaming systems so in all honesty we don't matter in terms of sales in this phase of...
We're not laughing cuz we want the game. We still think MMO games suck. We are laughing cuz how foolish Sony was made to look with this news. LOL
This isn't a knock on the PS3...just a simple marketing analysis.
I really don't think the PS3 motion controller will be very successful for two main reasons.
1. It has generated no Buzz. Zero!! The only reason it was ever even mentioned was as a throw in mention in Natal articles. Why are people gonna care to buy a product that nobody is excited about??
2. It doesn't really standout from the competition. I mean, it will be the most accurate o...
