PS3 Survey

After all, the PS2 was by far the worst console of last generation, even behind the Dreamcast in many technical catgories, had a vicious hardware failure rate and yet it crushed the competition by millions of units sold. I'd say there are legions of Sony fans.

You're right. What I meant to say was as soon as I can respect anyone who is a true fan of a company that likes to screw them left and right, then maybe I'll start caring.

I really don't care that I'm making gamers wait. Maybe because I'm one of them, so I know they're a bunch of impatient complaining bitches in general anyway so I just don't care to screw them over for what's only a game system. But it's also the fact that they'll be able to buy the console in another three months. It's not like an Eagles game where there's only one playoff game. You won't be able to buy a ticket to the same playoff Eagles game in three months like you can for the PS3.

I wouldn't scalp something I can respect and that's a one-time-thing (sports games, concerts, etc.). I would scalp the Wiis in a second if there was a similar idiotic demand over it.

I wonder, if it was as easy as going to a store and picking it up off the shelf, would you (or anyone else against eBaying the PS3s) -- would you buy and take the new Elmo home to eBay it? What if you could make $600 off of it? You clearly would have no intent of ever playing with it, so it would only be buying it to take it home and make $600 off other people's stupidity.

hey, at least people who want the ps3 are getting it. one could say the idiots paying 3000 for one WANT it more then anyone else :P

there are some that buy em just to destroy em and put a video on it on the internet, thats one that no one can have






and the DC vs PS2 thing... PS2 was a more powerful console, i mean obviously. even looking at the early games of ps2, it shows (not a huge difference in some cases. but i still thinkit shows). altho one of the main things was just the textures.

DC had some numbers that showed better stats in certain areas on paper yes, but overall ps2 was a more powerful console. in many cases a lower stat in one area is used entirely different by the console as a whole.

I mean I know the early PS2 games didnt really look much if any better than the Dreamcast's best games at the time. Hell, I still have my Dreamcast. But I always thought that was just because the PS2 was hard to develop for. I still thought it was quite a lot better spec wise on paper.

Then again, there was only a 1 year gap between the two right? Dreamcast was released on 9/9/99 I believe, PS2 around a year later correct?

I'd just like to tout that Ken Kutaragi originally promised 6 USB ports but as you can see, we are only given 4 USB ports now.

It's little lies and shortcomings like this that serve as nails to PS3's inevitable premature coffin burial.

What a wicked web we weave when we set out to deceive.
