haha..........again with these hilarious comments by editors and critics alike..... none have actual experience developing a game...
I suggest reading more intellectual material ... like interviews with developers.

Do you have immunity to taking a joke? Christ, you guys get worked up about EVERYTHING posted here, and no, it's not just you, but still.

Yes, yes it is true. Many editors were told by several Sony executives that the footage was a captured real-time render running on actual PS3 hardware. Sure, other Sony representatives came forward later and "corrected" their collegues. But the fact remains that there was a lot of BS thrown around in the beginning of the expo. Good God, nobody said the PS3's not going to be able to do the graphics or that we hate Sony. All that was said was that they weren't forthcoming with the truth.
Quit jumping down everybodys throat or I'll forcibly remove the PS2 that is commanding your brain right now.

You've got to be kidding me. And you wonder why nobody takes you seriously?
Honestly, I think Sony themselves would be embarrassed to have fans like you.
And don't start getting into an explanation of how you aren't really jumping down people's throats and that you actually do have a sense of humor and that you aren't really a totally mindless, knee-jerk fanboy. It's not going to help. Trust me on that.

Attacks like this don't help the situation.
EDIT: Embarrassed maybe... but it's good to know some people follow you even through your past mistakes (PS2).

That was really funny. I've found PA to be pretty hit or miss lately, but that's definitely hit.

Who would have guessed that a member named SONY wouldn't like a joke about the PS3? I wouldn't have... ever.

I have come to the conclusion that Sony/Kyozu is a robot, programmed to spout praise to Sony and laugh only at his own jokes...
"After a quick memory scan, I am unaware of any Sony-branded hip-waders being distributed prior to Sony's E3 conference. I will present to you the final results on the matter after a more thorough scan of the Sony mainframe. In the meanwhile you might be interested to hear that before Nintendo's E3 conference, they distributed Mario mind-control caps programmed to make the user's brain more susceptible to the overwhelming cuteness of small puppies. LOL."

I'll chuckle at the joke simply for its comic relief. By chuckling, I am not agreeing with the statements made nor I am endorsing any one system or gaming company.
There, now that I've drawn that contract, I can enjoy the comic without causing any conflict or offending anyone. :)

I'm not sure which is funnier: the comic, or the resulting arguments from the comic.

I agree, this has to be one of the most amusing threads that I've seen in quite a while. I think we should all let Sony in on the joke...

By the way, Kyuzo, "It's funny 'cause it's true" is a Simpsons quote.

Man I couldn't agree more.
They've lost their fastball.
Though news that plays well with their brand of humor has been really slow lately.

It's kind of like a religious fundamentalist, if you think about it. Henceforth, I shall refer to the-poster-formerly-known-as-Kyuzo as "Jerry Falwell" so as not to actually use his current screen name and confuse it with an electronics company.

Well, I just use "Sony(Kyuzo)". Much easier than "Jerry Falwell"...

No, just redundant.
CLOSED because this thread theatens all that read it with mental retardation. Public safety is job #1.
