I seriously hope that the PS3 doesn't die so quickly and my friggid $700 on it are gone. I'd be kind of pissed. RELover00Don't worry about it bud. When you see about a dozen or so PS3 exclusives and/or multi-platform games become XBOX exclusives, then you can start panicking. You got a great system that Sony has committed to supporting for the next 10 years. That is why it costs so much. It's a longer term gaming investment.

But that doesn't matter. Sony's not going to let it die.

While that in itself is not an earth-shattering achievement, it is still pretty amazing when you consider that they accomplished this while in Sony's juggernaut shadow.ghaleon0721I think this is the only line I disagree with in your post. That and when you said they released a system one year early. With the 360 able to boast about being the only nex-gen console, it was in no one's shadow and I think this helped persuade some gamers who wanted to the top of the line all of last year. Maybe I missed something but when I read that they released 1 year early I immediately think that you are saying compared to when PS3 came out, which would aid in success. IMO.

It may be a slow start, but what system has a fast paced start? They all start out slow, so lets give it sometime to grow.
[QUOTE="ghaleon0721"]After yesterday's nonsense I went home to think about the discussion, the systems, the games, and the events. And I have to admit, though it pains me so much, that the Xbox 360 is a pretty good system. I mean, look at what Microsoft has done. MS has released a system, 1 year early, SUCCESSFULLY. At first it looked like another Dreamcast-like debocle. But they've managed to gather developer and consumer support for the system to the tune of 10 million units worldwide. While that in itself is not an earth-shattering achievement, it is still pretty amazing when you consider that they accomplished this while in Sony's juggernaut shadow. So I say, good for you Microsoft, may the best system win. Competition is a good thing. It's the lifeblood of America. Competition breeds innovation and that means nothing but good things for me, the consumer. What's wrong with a 3rd party games coming out on both systems? Nothing. It only forces Sony and MIcrosoft to come up with more 1st party stuff, or provide innovative hardware in order to gain an advantage. I'm not about to go buy a 360 just yet. I think I'll stick with my free online play, blu-ray player, and sixaxis controller for now. Ooops, I almost violated my own truce there. As long as there is nothing cowardly or underhanded going on like Sony or MS paying for exclusives or worse...buying a 3rd party developer in order to secure an exclusive I'm happy to coexist with the Xbots of the world.blitzinger123Sega was a stand-alone game company which is why they lacked the funds to support a consumer and developer base for the dreamcast. MS is a multi billion dollar giant. They will throw as much money as needed into any of their products and make sure they stay in competition at any cost. So to come into a PS3 forum and wave a "truce" and then talk about how great the 360 is really a waste of time. People here either already have a 360 and also chose to buy a PS3, or they decided they wanted a PS3. Maybe in your head you have a war going on but here, we post about a solid system with a solid reputation with solid features that will soon get solid games. We dont need a "truce" because most of us could careless. No truce or "top 10 improvements" or false media about our system is going to make us sell it or show appreciation for a system we dont have. If we wanted to listen about how good a 360 is, we'd go into a 360 forum.

I think a truce is a great idea, when a gaming company loses, ALL gamers lose too...Â
Xbox 360Â premium comes with free xbox live.
[QUOTE="donmohsin"]Competition is good but the thing is Micro$oft doesnt like competition.feryl06And Sony does?
 sony doesnt bribe all the dev's to make there games exclusive, ac6 going to 360 when there are more ps3's than xbox's in japan? it doesnt add up... its just the example of the american money grubbing monopoly playing dirty.
[QUOTE="donmohsin"]Competition is good but the thing is Micro$oft doesn't like competition.feryl06And Sony does? Sony does not have MS attitude (ONLY ON XBOX!! wtf, "its exclusive for the xbox, buy this, we want to conquer the SOny empire", FECK OFF), reasons MS made the XBOX was that, its a great industry, (eh... has anyone noticed this... XBOX, when written in caps is the same font as the original console...
That is very suspicious, NO not a coincidence, meaning GS loves MS, or is being paid off, more plausible reasons, most 360 games which suck over in Europe, (don't know and don't care about the US market because its MAD over there) are loved by a good phew American sites except reviewed UK sites(if there are any) and edge.co.uk...),
But that console (XBOX) flopped to the fair superior corp, and older corp, Sony. One of the oldest, richest, smartest corps there is, not just in consoles(not the smartest, because they don't have that much experience, but do deliver), everything else, they have their own film studios for god sake, worth a lot more then MS, and could buy em out, they are all evil, but MS stole ideas, same with Sony.
But through the starting up of MS, they stole what started them off, windows, originally an apple idea. Yes well done for going against "the Gods", in marketing, but make your console good, or not at all, the white box, MS's second console, is very bad, (note MODS, I did not give out about or spit on the 360, because I haven't mentioned its name in context of spitting at it, I have said not spitting at it, yes I know crazy, but I'm very sick (physically) so I have an excuse for writing this up...)
The white second console of MS, is unstable in a % of areas, I myself have experienced that, and through the amount of complaints on these FORUMS ALONE, it reaches to over 160 the past 3-5 months, imagine what the rest of the world is like. Yes MS have sold 10 million consoles, but have replaced a % of that which is very funny indeed.
SONY have not replaced any consoles that even comes close to MSs number, there are vids on Sonys console, that are clear lies, the drive not working? aha that's just a second disk in the drive, why do Americans hate the PS3? cost too much, realise what you are getting, not many games yet, you impatient fools, yes it is more expensive in Europe, but I don't compare the EURO to the DOLLAR, we earn a lot more then you per head.
And Ive only seen 20-40 people complaining about the PS3s price, yse it is expensive, but worth it. ALSO, aren't all Americans patriots, or a majority, despising foreign products, heh, well Europe loves em, besides the small amount of negative crap we do get.
And no, I dont hate America, part of my family is American.
I was thinking about the same thing...why the hell is there a "Only on XBOX" Logo? is that some kind of psychological reassurance that they are getting...some game that they can brag about? I dont know are 360 fans that needed of someone to remind them and reasure them that they made the right desition? well with titles like Bullet Witch and Bomber Man Act Zero with the logo I can only laugh at the situation
Well ist funny cuz Sony NEVER implemeted that in their exclusives cuz the consumer already knew that they made the right desition :)
