Its still somethin. Plus, ps3 will have better things on the internet

XIII Heartless · July 28th, 2006, 03:33 AM

Like heck it will. What's going to be better on it's online service? The Wii and the 360 are both going to own the PS3 in the online department.

Spic Steve · July 28th, 2006, 03:36 AM

No it wont. The 360's is the one left behind.
Wii-Browser, plus 24connect,multiplayer,chat(i think)
PS3-Browser, Multiplayer,Possibly chat.

XIII Heartless · July 28th, 2006, 03:49 AM

The 360 has way more than what you just named. It has browser, multi-player, chat, shopping, downloads, and more. And what does the PS3 have? That's what I thought.

Spic Steve · July 28th, 2006, 03:56 AM

1) browser can have shopping.
2)I overlooked the downloads. They arent confirmed, but im sure they will be there, knowing sony

Sony already proved it sucked in the online depatment. It should stick to graphics, although, IMO, that won't be enough to save them.

Spic Steve · July 28th, 2006, 04:18 AM

Just stop with the saving. As long as there are consumers and fanboys, sony, microsoft, and nintendo wont die......at least not this turn

XIII Heartless · July 28th, 2006, 04:24 AM

Whatever, dawg, your opinion, not mine.

Spic Steve · July 28th, 2006, 04:27 AM

Thats what i think right now, cuz of the market crawling with gamers. Plus, the economy isnt fully in hell yet, so i know these gaming giants wont die.....yet.

XIII Heartless · July 28th, 2006, 04:37 AM

Now it isn't but it will be sooner or later. Probably sooner.

Spic Steve · July 28th, 2006, 04:41 AM

Just watch. They CANT die. They all have money in the bank. Sony has cameras. Microsoft has computers. Nintendo has Games. If nintendo did die, theyd still make games like sega

XIII Heartless · July 28th, 2006, 04:44 AM

Sony has more than cameras. I meant in the game area.

I love how I'm the fanboy in this when I am not focusing on one system. And your arguments against me are flawed.

First off to XIII, I had opinion, yes, but it was factual opinion, ie. I was discussing hardware, not just pulling it out of my rear, as well, I have also openly admitted that PS3 stands a fair chance of failing, yet still I am a fanboy. And as for it being an ignorant comment, it is far from it, I have discussed this point with others in the same program as me (Im studying Game Development for your information) and we have found the statement to be true, henceforth I don't really care about you trying to argue that.

I love how XIII and Counter Shock contradicted eachother "Its about the system" vs. "Its not about the hardware"... Wonderful.

Onto Counter Shock. I never disputed why you would buy one system over the other, the only thing I was stating is that the PS3 is not a flawed system, much to fanboy dismay. As for what you say, the 360 has more games, yes, why, because it has been out for a year. This is where consumer bias comes in, I, as a consumer, prefer specific styles of games, on the 360, I do find enjoybale games, but only games I would play with my friends at a party or something, nothing I want to purchase for my own. On the PS3, I see the same I saw in the PS2, a system that has games that fill my taste of genre, in that sense, my consumer bias will direct me to purchase a PS3 over a 360.

I know Im not a fanboy, despite your comments, as I frequently play on all the consoles and enjoy what they have to offer, Nintendo is for quick, entertaining, multiplayer fun... XBox is for FPS mayhem(even though there are other genres, I would not play those on the XBox), and Sony is for the RPGs and all the games I can play when my friends aren't around. Each have there own strengths and their own weaknesses, it is the developers that utilize the hardware provided to create fun games to play.

This is the last I am stating and will not be coming back to this topic, I bid you adieu.

Then you're all ignorant. I too will be playing all three, but I will be unable to buy a PS3. I prefer the Wii out of all three, but I'm glad I got the 360, too. As for you not coming back, you said that last time, so forgive me if I don't believe you. Counter and I agree on some things, not everything. Don't compare us. As for your "factual opinion", many professionals and developers find the 360 to be very next-gen and as you are still only studying to develop games, I pick their opinion over you and your wannabe friends'. You've already stated you are biased toward the Playstation, so I'm going to write off everything you say as fanboyism.
