Who went out and bought new consoles when the old ones were fixed for free? That doesn't make any sense.
The PS3 didn't win 2007 or 2008. The Wii did. The PS3 is still last in market share for the current generation of consoles. There aren't any numbers that say otherwise.
So you haven't seen them, then?
Getting old? Why do you say that? There's nothing wrong with this article.
The fastest way to lose bubbles is to beg for more.
I understand that the idea behind this article is to show that the way Sony represents achievement via trophies is more reflective of skill than how Microsoft shows it. But what the author doesn't understand is that people who love achievements will take the time to actually look at the achievements that someone has, not just the total Gamerscore. So the premise is somewhat sophomoric and flawed, in my opinion. There's no rule that a platinum trophy needs to be exceedingly hard to get. And th...
It's sad that it has come to this, isn't it? In the honor system people who own a product should be able to provide feedback on it based upon their experiences with it. However, children who play video games apparently have no honor as they can't be trusted on the honor system.
When I'm looking to purchase anything of value I try to find information from people who own and use it. That way I can gauge whether it was useful to them before I get it myself. Seems like with video gam...
I don't even know how to respond to that. The day Microsoft stops trying to beat Sony? This is probably the biggest fanboy moment in an otherwise civil discussion.
You make it sound like Sony was out there handing out kittens and rainbows and Microsoft just came along and stomped all over them. The hate is caused by the gamers, not Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo.
I don't think that Xbox 360 fans want the PS3 to fail as much as they don't want it to be first. There's a difference between the two.
It hasn't been the normal morons like the ones that fight here all the time that have been instilling fear. It's mainstream journalists that have an enormous sandbox to speak from. People automatically trust outlets like Wall Street Journal, so when they say doom and gloom people just believe it. Sadly that's enough to turn some fence sitters away...
That's right Kareem. Bubbles for you. Blaming "360 fanboys" and saying they've hit rock bottom right after the "PS3 fanboys" did exactly the same thing to Gears 2 makes that comment such a complete joke.
It takes a bigger man to not fight back, right?
Don't you mean retaliate *again* on a 360 game, right? This pathetic tit-for-tat has been going on since long before the LBP story came up.
Yeah, it surprised me that the Wii browser went from free to $5. I didn't pay for it, but at $5 I don't think that it's worth it.
Personally I feel that both browsers are painful to use. But that's just because I prefer my laptop.
It would be nice if they cut prices on the games that people actually want.
My Wii has plenty of games that I enjoy. Unfortunately none of them are recent. Hopefully that changes soon.
I have Time Warner and I'm pretty ticked that Time Warner would roll over on me for less than $3 per year per subscriber. Raise my bill a quarter a month if you have to. Or better yet, take it out of the last unjustified rate increase that you passed on to me.
If TWC is getting enriched based upon Viacom's programming then TWC should pay up. If they need to save money get rid of some of the more than 400 channels that nobody watches.
$5 to unlock a character already on the disc in Soul Calibur IV is a big disappointment to me.
Looks like you just made it...
I don't care what the analysts say. I like my PS3 and that's good enough for me. Whether for movies or gaming mine gets used practically every single day. So it really doesn't matter to me if the PS3 stays in last place overall, I've still had a good time with it.
To that end, I don't see why people feel the need to knock themselves out to defend the PS3. It doesn't matter if it was leading for most of 2008 or if it had higher rated games in 2008. It doesn't matter that 360's ha...
The Wii in my house gets just as much use as the PS3 and 360 do. In addition to the so-called "kiddie" game franchises that are so fun to play I like the news and weather channels.
As for the "gamer" vs. "non-gamer" garbage that so many here like to spew, when I was as young as most of this website's readers I would have considered myself a "hardcore" gamer, but now that I'm older I know that the reality is that "hardcore" equals ...
