[QUOTE="ParasiteEveLust"] But we all knew that. Why now? Why after GDC? Skylock00

And about Motorstorm, that's about the downloadable content, right? I don't know about that.

"But PlayStation Home will certainly have its applications. I look forward to getting invited to the private spaces of other users so they can show me their vast collection of ripped DVD porn films and mind-blowing animated GIFs. I also look forward to going to the Sponsored By Big Summer Movie Area, where I can watch the trailer for Big Summer Movie and perhaps even acquire a T-shirt with the logo for Big Summer Movie right on it!"

This was completely unnessesary. I don't understand. They do have ads in here right?

Fumpa ^ ,your point about overreacting bears some truth.

But in all honesty,I believe it's more to do with the article's timing that makes people believe GameSpot are being biased.It's like,Sony finally gets something right,and instead of GameSpot shining light into what they got right at GDC and give them their props,they attempt to put them down again.

To me it doesnt really matter:I've played games on Playstations since the days of TestDrive,a negative article on Sony wont change nor affect my view on the greatest videogame company to date.

I'm also a bit shocked. Not sure what else I'm feeling at the moment; mixed reactions. Still some effort has been put into the article. Even if it's not taken down, some parts really need to be edited. Way too blunt and/or unjustified. Especially on the Home service which is still not out yet so no one knows how it works in practice, yet is being criticised on. I found "Sony needs to rip off Xbox Live" to be really offensive.

Edit: As the internet doesn't portray tone very well, I'm not bashing GS at all. I am just expressing concern about the article.

The intent may have been there GameSpot, but this feature just does not deliver. It seems like the title should read "10 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Buy A PS3", because thats all anyone can take away from it.KeyWii

To those who say we are "overreacting": quite clearly, an overraction of this scale must mean that something is wrong. Look at system wars. Look at the PS3 forum. Regardless of the sticky that says calling GS bias will impose upon you a minimum 5 day suspension, I've seen many today who disregarded that warning. So many people unanimously drawing the same conclusion... surely, that's basis enough to say we have grounds for "overreacting".

 I think I speak for others when I say we know what GS was trying to do by pointing out the PS3's faults. But in a manner that is so degrading, THAT is unacceptable. Quite frankly, I just don't think "Basically, Sony needs to rip off Xbox Live. If Sony can do that, then it will at least make the decision to purchase an Xbox 360 game versus a PlayStation 3 game a little less one-sided" (along with other glorious quotes) should be said, even in an editorial, by supposely-credible people who review games. It may be an opinion, but it's expressed unprofessionally.

By the way, thanks to everyone for keeping a such a heated topic like this civil.

Edit: Props to Brad Shoemaker and Aaron Thomas for their part in the tipping point. I feel that their approach to writing it is how the rest of the article should be.

once again you guys must be 16 years old.

the ps3 looks bad without this article, he tells the truth, i own a ps3 andbesides motorstorm i dont use it, i have no friends on it, chatting doesnt work well and its not made for online as of now.

But  a guy makes an artivcle which almost every site till now has basicaly said and you guys cry like children.

The ps3 has no games and has no unifies system, it has power and potential but i pay to play not to wait 3 years, it must hurt you all knowing that the 360 is doing so well and does everything so much better then the ps3 for now.

i don't see why they complain about the online, if any console needs that talk its the Wii.  and as for hardware problems yes they have had their problems, but the ps3 has been without any big problems so far, gamespot should have meantioned that at least.

the whole trophy thing was horrible and pointless, compare it to achievements its the same thing, different form but their not complaining about that.  as for the high price point, as people have meantioned over and over again, you are not gonna just spend $400 on a 360 and call it good, your either getting live, microphones, hddvd, or other "choices".  microsoft just did a good job of dividing the costs to make it look cheaper.  sony just said, here it is, you get everything that should be included, no addons.

and gs was kinda selfish in that article.  it was all me me me, i want this, why can't i get that.  just because they think that will make things better for sony doesn't mean it will, although I'm sure some things will.  This type of journalism isn't helping the gaming industry, if they want their jobs they need to support it.  and im not saying to lie, but that article was not written well. 

they should either rewrite it or take it down
