As a happy owner of a PS3 I have to disagree with just about all of the points you made about it, ZV. And frankly... well, you sound like a fanboy. You're making lots of generalizations and assumptions from a biased viewpoint. You're basically just saying "Sony overall sucks" but you're not providing much of an argument for your side.



First of all, I don't know anyone who was unhappy with purchasing a PS2. Sure, they sometimes broke down, but I don't personally know anyone who had theirs break in two years. They did break down sometimes -- I won't deny that -- but the people I know who had their PS2s break rushed out and got a replacement because they loved their PS2 collection that much. I have a PS2 Slim and I've never been unhappy with getting it, ever. It's worth it for Okami alone, but I love all the games I've got. Of course, if you have an old PS2 that hasn't broken down yet it'll probably last you forever.

You know what's funny, though? Both of the original Xboxes I've ever owned were broken (I fixed one of them so I could use it), and everyone I know who has an Xbox 360 has had to send theirs in for repairs. Never met anyone with a PS3 who had to send theirs in, though I know some people have had to.

Now, my PS3? I bought my PS3 solely for gaming and I've never been disappointed in the library, and I'm certainly not what you'd call a softcore gamer. (Come on, I'm the guy that's always speaking against Nintendo a lot of the time, remember?) I think I bought mine at a good time, though -- late 2008. At that point developers had begun getting a feel for the PS3 and as such there was a healthy selection of good games available, and in 2009 a big wave of awesome games started to come out, in addition to Sony's massive marketing push. The PS3's library appealed to me more than the 360's, and like HNS said, most of the games I'm interested in on the 360 I can also get for the PS3 (or PC, for that matter).

Here's an illustration to show you one of the reasons I prefer Sony: Portal 2. Ironic as it is given Valve's stance on the PS3 in the past, the PS3 version is undeniably the superior of the two console versions for one reason: Steamworks. Steamworks allows you to link up your PSN account with your Steam account so you can talk to your Steam friends from your PS3, getting trophies on the PS3 version unlocks the corresponding achievements on the PC version, and you get free access to the Windows and Mac versions of Portal 2 if you buy the PS3 version, as well. You can't do any of that on the 360. The reason this stuff isn't on the 360 is that Microsoft is very restrictive about what their developers can do, but Sony was willing to let Valve do things their own way, and in return we got a superior product. Microsoft and their insistence on charging consumers for content updates to games is partly why Team Fortress 2 on the 360 is so outdated -- Valve releases all of their updates at no charge. (By now there's such a world of difference in the power needed to run the game that they probably couldn't make it work on the 360 now anyways, though.)

The PS3's multimedia functionality is really nice, however, even if it wasn't a major factor in my decision to get one. I love that I have a Blu-Ray disc player and an all-in-one media hub in addition to a console with what I feel are awesome games.

As for what you experienced on the PSN compared to Xbox Live, I frankly think that's irrelevant. There are going to be "l33t pr0 omfg" players on either service, and there's going to be tame players on either, as well. PSN has a distinct advantage over Xbox Live, however, and that's free online gameplay. $50 a year to play online isn't too expensive, sure, but that's $50 I'd rather use to buy a new game or something. And now that PlayStation Plus is around, no one can argue any more that Xbox Live's servers are superior because the money coming in pays for better ones than PSN has.

Even if I did neglect my PS3 for about a year after I built myself a gaming computer, I'm still very happy I have it

HNS, the older PS3s are compatible with PS2 games, not the newer ones. Problem is, in spite of being older, they usually sell for as much as, if not more than, a brand-new PS3 Slim because they're so in-demand. I'd say it's worth it, though. My sister has an older PS3 that'll play PS2 games and I think having a console that'd play all three PlayStation generations would be awesome.

PONY EDIT:  I'd rather not have one of those thanks
What, you expect me to say something witty?

You get a cookie.

Anyway, I kinda find it funny how we went from discussion on a console prototype to another battle in the infamous console wars. But at the same time, I'm glad that we're at least remaining civil about this. Please, continue.

Yeah, I'm a little miffed that you're saying the PS2 didn't have good games. I mean, regardless of what side you're on, you can't deny it has a LOT of good ones. Shadow of the Colossus, Final Fantasy X (to an extent), Dragon Quest VIII, the Battlefronts...it has a pretty much legendary collection, in my opinion. Oh, Jak and Daxter and Ratchet and Clank. I've also never had one of mine break down or in any way have problems. Same with any of my friends'.

As for the new controller, I'm praying to God Nintento goes the 'get it in the hands of the consumer' route and gives up some of the profit to make it affordable. Will they? I don't know.

...

I'm not an expert.

*sigh*

I could probably go find all of the charts I've read, and grab all the data I've found over the years. I'm sure I could compile all the information I need to argue- but I'm a more passive person, and an even lazier one. Truth is, I just don't feel like going the extra mile to argue with a fellow gamer. We can just agree to disagree. I've tried all three consoles, and I have my opinions on them all.

Nintendo 64 >>>>>>>>>>>>> Dreamcast > Pile of steaming $#17 > Playstation
Game Cube > XBox > Playstation 2
XBox 360 > Playstation 3 > 3DS > Wii

Hopefully it will go back to being

Nintendo >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> (all the other stuff that doesn't matter)
:)

I'll always remember Nintendo for who they were and not what they are today. They made my childhood awesome- I feel bad for any kid that didn't get to grow up in 90's. We had the best cartoons and the best games. How can anyone argue?

You always seem to know where to find the truest pictures.

Huh, hard to say. It is intriguing, nonetheless.
