I recently posted a thread on here talking about me selling my 60gb ps3 because of "lack of games". I still strongly support my statements, the other thread got locked bc I posted the link to my ebay auction.
Here is link to the thread-http://www.gamespot.com/pages/forums/show_msgs.php?topic_id=26567176
In all honesty, I have always been a big Playstation kid, I've had the first one since I was 6, I still have it. I remember playing hours upon hours of Hercules on it, and I played alot of platformer titles on the Ps2. So then I waited for the Ps3, I saved up over $600 for launch, then the launch didnt come. Well, time flew by, I finally saved up enough money (in the meantime I bought an xbox 360). I got the 60gb ps3, which will be leaving me tomorrow.
For over 6 months, I researched every possible game for me to buy, always looking if Killzone 2 was coming around. Some games like R:FOM made me like the Ps3, it just wasnt the system I imagined it to be. It had the great graphics, the online, but not the gameplay that has made Sony such a household name. Well, again, time passes, and motorstorm came out, a great game, I played it alot (the most actually out of my ps3 titles).
For 3 months it was a fun time spender, I enjoyed it honestly. But I still hadn't gotten the amazing experience. Again, time passes, I waited patiently for Home, it didnt come out. Little updates here and there, nothing much really changed. Oh yea, and in the meantime only a handful of normal fps came out. Heavenly Sword was amazing though, it was obviously made to be a good game. I rented over 15-20 games over the whole 2007-2008 year, even some in 2008. But still, I wasnt getting that Ps3 experience. Hoping that GTAIV was going to be good for the ps3, I researched it, only to find out it was causing fatal errors in Ps3s. Thats when I drew the line. I waited over 5 years for a console that didnt have good games. Well im tired of the waiting, tired of the promises, and tired of incompletness. Sony had the potential to win me, but overall, it failed.
I know some people are gonna say "you just like xbox 360", or "there are great games coming out", but why arent those "great games" out yet. Heck, I even tried to get some sports games for the ps3 over time, each had big errors. And home was still not out.
Even my step-dad, a loyal Playstation fan from his days in the Army hasn't enjoyed the PS3.
Sry for this rant, but I didnt mean to look like an a$$ in my other thread, im just completely unsatisfied by promises, incompletness from Sony.
