PS3 Supreme or a flop?

Hey everyone,

I've recently been hearing alot about the PS3 from various sources and some issues are bugging me. To begin with, why are most people going into frenzy mode everytime the PS3 is mentioned? I mean it hasn't even been released in the UK yet and people are already passing judgement on the console, with this being mainly good. But to me, is it wise to rate the PS3 so soon? The Xbox 360 has been a great success with the majoirty of users being more than satisified with what Microsoft has produced and the number of these people is constantly increasing. As for the PS3, it hasn't even been released yet and people are already slagging off the Xbox just because the PS3 is supposingly more powerful when compared on paper. But wait a minute! Havn't the public been messed around with for too long? Haven't they been promised things that Sony have failed to deliver? What makes Sony so sure that people are going to want to purchase their console which has an astonishing price tag attached to it?! Furthermore, no solid proof has yet been given showing that the PS3 is as good as it is made out to be! In my eyes Sony have a lot of work to do if they are to even come close to Microsofts success, which at current has an extremely good line up for game releases this year with titles including Assassins Creed, BioShock and Two Towers amongst others. It is just ridiculous that people can be so vain when it comes to this and i expect that half of the people who are saying this stuff havent even compared each of the consoles sufficently enough with a variety of different games and other areas such as value of gameplay and vlaue for money!

Well enough of me blabbing on, what im after are your views about this issue from those who are both loyal to Microsoft and Sony. I myself do not favour one from the other and are basing what have i stated from what i have heard from the past couple of weeks.

So if anyone has anything they would like to say please feel welcome too!

Thank You!!!

is there an "in between at the moment" option?useLOGIC

I agree with you. When I finally get some good games this will change, and when sony finally allows their music and movie catalog available on the store, then it will be a big hit.

Most gamers do a little research before spending thier hard earned cash on a next gen console. PS3 doesent deliver anything really special to gamers.carl2tan

That's pretty much the case.

It's not a flop by any means, but its not exactly reigning supreme right now either.

i think it's a really useful sytem. I have talked to alot of people and they say that it hasnt really shown yet what its capable of. But i think with the upcoming games this year it will really show what the PS3 can do. I personally have one and it hasnt frozen, dissapointed, or broken on me once. Those who say that blu-ray players are useless don't know what they're talking about, because thats the same driver that runs the soon-to-be massive PS3 games. Blu-ray and DVD is like when it was VCR and the other video tape format. both were very popular but depended on which one the public wanted and was more accessible. I can see blu-ray being more accessible in the year 2007.limitbreak32

Sony makes you work on Sundays?!?

Sheesh.  Another reason to hate 'em.
