    More trouble for Sony?....

    I was visiting the PS3 forums on Gamespot....cause I was curious as to what the die hard sony fans were saying....

    And they say some truely bizarre things.... "If PS3 fails ...console gaming as a whole fails"...."If PS3 fails Ill probally never play on a console again"....

    They are wierdos...lol....

    *shrugs* A decent portion of them seem relatively content in owning all three systems....

    But anyway....heres the "More trouble for Sony?" part...

    Ah, good ol' Kaz Hirai, the most truthful and honest businessman the world ever saw. A perfect man for a perfect console.

    I'm placing my bets for two, maybe three years tops, know what I mean?

    lol, the end of console gaming if P$3 alone fails? pfft, don't be so farking stupid whoever-said-it-on-those-forums-guy.

    Sega dropped out of console gaming and we're still playing consoles today, if Sony fails it'll mean the end of Sony in the console wars, or at the very least the Playstation. Console gaming would continue, it's far too big an industry - which is in great demand - to stop or be stopped, ha!

    If Sony fails all it will mean is bad consequences for Sony, it'll mean Sony got too big for their boots and handled the situation terribly, the sheer corporate arrogance they have displayed in the last couple of years in regards to the P$3 is just astonishing on its own.

    Yeah I told them that comments like that were stupid....

    Because if anything Sony would likely maintain a gaming division to produce their exclusive titles... or in another senario sell off their gaming division to another company so someone else woudl own teh franchises...

    But the funniest things ...the game franchises some of these people mentioned were not even Sony.... they mentioned Tekken, Soul Caliber, and Metal Gear.... And I was like Jeeze guys.... Tekken & Soul Caliber both Namco and existed before sony.... Metal Gear=Konami ....

    If you ever want a laugh go to PS3 forums...any time bad news surfaces about Sony or the PS3....they say stuff like "Oh no...horrible news for the gaming industry"..."Gamers of the world suffer" ...blah blah blah...

    Ugggg!!! This sounds really bad for Sony.....

    But I doubt fans on both sides can really understand it....

    lol, I got the jist - basically, Sony's processor is inferior...I duno why they don't just roll over and give up and join Sega on the unemployment line ... or well, at least the line where they don't build consoles anymore.

    And if Sony drops out of the console racket - who (if it happens) will take their place and what will they bring to the table?

    Agreed, as long as M$ keep the smug off their face they'll do alright, corporate arrogance is a big customer turn off.

    R.i.p. Ps3 ?

    I was going to wait to purchase a ps3 for at least a year ... I had a xbox a few years ago , and ps2 . I gave my xbox1 to a friend in Florida , he had lost his in Hurricane Charlie 04...I dont miss the xbox1 , just the content of the games ...I hated the controler . Now the ps2 slimline runs really well , I had an original ps2 , it backed up during San Andreas regularly .I like the playstation controller design much better than xbox . I have just always liked Sony , but every dog has its day . I am still gonna wait this out 'till the dust settles , I have better things to do w/ my $ right now .If I was going to get anything , it would be a xbox 360 , it comes highly recomended by some other games enthusiasts here .I get them based on the games , but you find out later that Doom3 ( have the pc) or soon to be released Half Life 2 are for the 360 ... I will give ps2 props for Return to Castle Wolfenstien , Area 51 , San Andreas, Half Life , and Black . I loved those games . Lets see what happens ...

    When you get to grips with the new controller, oh the joy! As for Half Life 2 on the 360, just you wait until Mass Effect. It'll blow it right out of the water!

    I liked the Xbox controller.....well at least the smaller version that they eventually included with systems...

    As much as I want to believe that $ony will go the same was as Sega, I still think it's a little too early to tell. I would definitely scream a "serves you right" if the P$3 had to quit the console race.

    If $ony buggered off, I'd imagine Sega would want another crack at the title.
