Sony, the great pretender. The stealer of ideas and destroyer of the sacred. They have brought nothing new to gaming, they tried to turn 'game' consoles into 'home entertainment' movie players, they tried and failed to emulate the PC in a 'closed' environment. Simply awful.

The fathers of gaming were (in no particular order) Atari, Microsoft, Amstrad, Sinclair, Commodore, Apple, Sega and Nintendo. They popularised gaming, they brought us the first real home consoles or produced operating systems and PC's designed with gaming in mind. Sony copied, and were successful, but brought nothing to the table that hadn't been done before, all the while using their muscle and marketing power to push others with smaller budgets to one side. They nearly succeeded in their quest for total domination and the smothering of innovation, but people saw through the lies eventually.

The classics of gaming, the highest rated and critically acclaimed titles of all time, did not come from Sony and nor will they. Ever. Oh they had a well loved console or two but I say that had they stayed out of the market someone else, someone better, would have created something more wonderous. When they bow out next gen I will be glad. Someone new, someone with real ideas, will step in and fill the gap. Exciting times :).

Don't forget, historically accurate documentation tells us that giant crabs will attack your weak spot, for massive damage, if you disagree.

Sony made console gaming more mainstream than any company ever. Twice, that at it, and they have one of the highest rated games of all time in Uncharted 2. I thank them for that.

They've brought nothing to gaming, except two of the greatest consoles to grace the medium. Beyond that, how about the hundreds of IPs that have existed due to them?

This is nothing more than a wannabe-hipster post. Guess what? We've all heard of it!!

fearing the risk of being attacked by giant crabs, i must say that several of the highest scoring games of all time include the likes of gta3, uncharted 2, tony hawk 3, mgs2, devil may cry, mgs3, mgs4, and god of war. these all debuted on sony systems.

Nope. The PS1 and the PS2 are the best consoles ever (and I say this as a Nintendo fan), especially if you're into JRPGs.

Yes, outside of the immense third party support of those two consoles and a few first party games here and there, Sony is pretty forgettable overall and they do suffer from a lack of original ideas. Still, the incredibly robust libraries of the PS1/PS2 more than make Sony's hardware efforts irreplacable.

I don't feel the same way about PS3 tho. PS3 is just a slightly sexier Xbox 360 IMO.

I agree to a point. I do not wish Sony to go away but they really have not brought anything. They have had some good games but that is because of the developers not Sony. Naughty Dog for example was making some great games and Sony bought them but it is not like Sony the company made those games but instead it was the people from Naughty Dog.

Those IP's, mostly third party, would have existed on other consoles. Sony simply bought the market and third party devs sucked it up because it was the only choice left to them. They tried to buy it again with the PS3, they took such a hit, this time it failed. They did kill the, arguably, better HD-DVD format on the way though.

That is an assumption, not a certainty. Also, Sony offered third parties distinct advantages over developing for Nintendo.

Sony has a great history in the games industry but this gen that have been nothing more than a "me too" company. Nearly everything they do is influenced in some way by somethat that MS or Nintendo are doing. This isn't always bad (look at Samsung copying Apple for example), but Sony fails to deliver a superior product than the competition even though they are copying.

Listen to what you're saying as it sounds too stupid. If this was the case no console should be here because the mass majority of games are 3rd party. Especially MS!

I understand your point and those consoles were great because of the games on them. My reasoning though is that they basically paid for the market and someone else would have done a better job if they had left the space. I think they actually stifled innovation during those times and those games that made the consoles great would have been on another system anyway.

Agreed. Sony fanboys know that this is the truth, but admitting it is just too painful considering Sony's PS1/PS2 dominance.

Would have, or could have? Assumptions don't help the matter. Regardless, Sony brought out 2 of the highest selling consoles in history, and that attracted 2nd/3rd party development.

How did they "buy" a market?

It certainly is arguable. Most of the benefits of of HD-DVD have been brought to Blu-Ray, and it's major advantage was production cost (touted at around 10% more than DVD's). However Blu-Ray costs have dipped considerably.

Some of them would have been on another system anyway, but I don't think that's true for every title. I don't think the PS1 FFs would exist (which were essential titles of that era) in their current form if not for PlayStation.

Exactly, as I belive the driving factor behind the change was due to the CD format of the PS1.

That is not true. Nintendo has many great games from studios they formed and not bought already formed studios. 343 is a recent example of a studio made. There may be successful studios Sony has formed but I do not know them. I am just saying Sony did not create its great games they were from studios formed before Sony bought them.

You do realize that this is how most companies work right? Nintendo's nearly the only exception to this, but otherwise most companies bring things by giving the funds for their first-parties to develop with.

I know you know this, but the reason I'm saying this is because ND bringing something is Sony bringing something. First-party is first-party.

I agree that it was. However it was merely another studio funded by Sony, not actually Sony themselves. Sony's DNA is that of a hardware company and they really haven't ever showed their prowess at that. In fact the horrible build quality and lack of power compared to their competitors in all gen's they have been a part of is proof enough of that. Granted MS dropped the ball this gen too and I also hate the direction they are now taking.

Indeed, which is partly my point. Sony (metaphorically) forced it's hardware down peoples throats with massive ad campaigns and by buying studios that previously would have produced for other consoles. Sony had the money in those days that others didn't and they used it to dominate. Not blaming them for doing it, most companies would, but I still didn't like it.

what companies did Sony but? Yeah none. Squarenix? Rockstar? No

They bought exclusivity rights to IP's, it amounts to the same thing really.

3DS price pre-sony intervention-250 dollars

3DS price post-sony intervention-150 dollars.

Thats 1 very small example of why Sony is nice to have around.

most games don't come from first party developers. nintendo would be the main exception.
