HONESTLY....to all you that have 360's and constantly are downing the PS3 in any way possible, what is your problem.

It dont matter what games it does not have it has not been out for a year yet, and to all that really complain about the price, dont buy it then. Frankly it really is not any more expensive then the 360. At least my ps3 came with a blue-ray player and i dont have to add on a $200 attachment. Not to mention the HDMI the PS3 has, and the buit in wi-fi. Ohh wait. The wireless adapter for 360 is $100. Combined with how much the HD-DVD atatchment is $200. That kinda sounds a little more expensive the my ps3. But anyway the point is let us PS3 owners be. I just dont understand what all the complaining is about unless 360 owners are threatend by something........Are they????

Yes, Microsoft gives you the choice to pay ridiculous prices for HDDs, Memory cards (Oh sorry, Memory UNITS), Charge and Play peripherals, an add-on for the failing HD-DVD and paid online which is the equivalent of Xfire on PC.

Dude don't be so insecure, PS3 will be fine, if you look ahead PS3 will be great, until then you're going to have to stomach with all the negativity around here or not you could go somewhere else.

Yes they give you choices, Silver or Gold Live. I like Sony's "forced" free online better.

Oh youll be suprised just how good the games look when u have a 42 inch lcd that can display 1080p and an hdmi cord and a ps3. It cost me $2,700 for everything including motorstorm, resistance fall of man, genji, call of duty 3, and virtua fighter, and I must say, every launch game including the downloadable ones, look very impressive graphically, even ridge racer 7 blew my eyes off, lmao. I now understand why sony went with bluray for making there games and I think it is a smart move. Come see me if u want.

Thats because Lems have gotten arrogant because of a 1 year headstart. They think MS is unstoppable, Let me ask you this Lems, how can MS be unstoppable when 360 is considered crap in Japan and Europe. Only NA cares about 360. I see PS3 eclipsing 360 by years end. 360 had no competition in Europe and Japan for over a year, yet 360 only manages to sell less than half a mill in japan and 3.5 mill in Europe with a cheaper price than North America's 360 price.  Deny all you want, you know i'm right. NA+Europe+Japan>NA alone.

From now on I'm only going to say positive things about the PS3 so I don't hurt cows feelings :lol: This is a games forum and we talk about the gaming industry. Right now Sony not doing so well and it's going to get talked about. No one is forcing you to read these forums.

[QUOTE="lucas_kelly"]Microsoft gives you the choice, Sony dosent. I dont need a Blu-ray player to play good games. InfamousC

Yes they give you choices, Silver or Gold Live. I like Sony's "forced" free online better.

I rather pay for something that works well than get something free that doesn't work well. I got both the 360 and the PS3 and so far PSN is a joke compared to XBL. 50$ is a small price to pay for an excellent online service. Home is intriguing but since I haven't been into these "virtual worlds" thingy for several years I'm not sure it is something for me. What I want from PSN is simple:

* Unified friendslist over ALL games
* All games support voicechat
* The ability to see what my friends are playing and invite them to my game regardless whhat they are doing on their console (ok, except running Linux on it at the moment)
* A Playstation store that isn't running like molasses (the Euro-servers opened up yesterday and it still is slow when browsing around)

Quite simply - right now PSN is quite far behind XBL. I hope they get around to fixing these problems though since I just want a good online experience regardless which system I use.

As for the original posters which you quoted. The choice been talked about there has nothing to do with online. You cannot ignore the simple fact that MS does give the gamers the option to pay for the HD-movie support by buying the HD-DVD addon or to wait until a clear winner has been decided and then get either the add-on or a separate player. I got both the PS3 with the Blueray and the HD-DVD addon for the 360 and while I have movies for both (picked up a bunch when I was in New York a week ago) I wasn't exactly blown away by the selection for either format. IMHO DVD's still will reign for quite some time so I can understand people who are hesitant to pay extra for a HD-format before they really need it.

Hey, I love Fiddle Faddle! Tasty! If you don't like the PS3 being ripped on, don't visit System Wars. Not until some really good PS3 news is released, at least. Also, if PS3 fanboys can get away with pointing out that HDMI cables for PS3 are only $10 compared to the over-priced Sony branded cables, I feel obligated to point out you can use a non-Microsoft-branded wifi adapter for far cheaper than $100. And your "PS3 has wifi built in" statement is misleading... only the expensive $600 version has that.

If you can't handle the System War's heat, then get out of the kitchen I always say!

And besides, we bash Sony for a reason, like Sony themselves didn't give us enough ammo to do so! And the fact that the PS3 is a flop right now doesn't help matters out either. That and loosing exclusive third-party titles left and right!

the PS3 is an overhyped flop- you say Who cares about the games? but errr GAMES are the WHOLE point of gaming- sure u might not care much coz uve got a 'cheap' BluRay player- but real gamers do care. I mean if you've waited a year or more for a console just because of the BluRay player when u could have bought a perfectly good X360 with a bunch of good games & save money then that says enough. the Wi-Fi adapter is pointless on a home console- sure on the DS or PSP its fine- but for online gaming on a next-gen console Wi-Fi just isnt reliable enough unless ur close to your modem & in that case an ethernet cable is FAR superior.

That kinda sounds a little more expensive the my ps3. But anyway the point is let us PS3 owners be. I just dont understand what all the complaining is about unless 360 owners are threatend by something........Are they????

so you came in here to complain about people hurting you and your ps3s feelings, only to go on to insult the 360, and its fans?


no, youre not backwards    :roll:
