Your question is like asking, "Ubuntu fans think is better than windows when Windows is kicking its ass around, why do people install Ubuntu then?". Substitute Ubuntu with PS3 and windows with the x360 (wii is like google, is winning and is great). This analogy applies to all microsoft products, and their open source competitors. So i am just glad sony is not out of the gaming industry and that is still with the "hardcore" market competing against MS.

but the funny fact is, PS3 is OUTSELLING 360 for the past 8 months, and the only reason 360 is ahead right now, is because of 1 year headstart. its pathetic

That and the times were the 360 was outselling the PS3. Like the entire year before the PS3 pricecut.

The 360 is ahead on its own merits, just like the PS3 is selling well now on its own merits.

Personally i dont see how you think it is in last place, both the 360 and PS3 have great games and id say they are very close that way,but i prefer the PS3 exclusives since they arent mostly FPS exclusives, and im burnt out on JRPG's but i do like the xbox 360. Sales wise the PS3 is winning in every region except for NA, and for the total sales you have to account for the fact that the PS3 came out a full year later than the 360 and has sold more consoles per year than the xbox, so if they had been released in the same year i think they would be close. I think it would be interesting to see how the 360's failure rate and the huge cost of the PS3 would have come into play had they been released a t the same time, maybe both companies would have issued early price drops, either way i believe both consoles are neck and neck right now with their futures depending on the online multiplayer games they can push out in the next two years, that will determine who is a failure.



I Hate the fact that all these pillows are contaminated by retard!!

I just have a few things to say.

when you're loosing, the human being has this knack to get defensive.

It happen to each console gen, Let's not forget the SEGA VS NINTENDO days.

Just for the record... I hated that commercial of nintendos mario kart in the milk truck vs sega in the ... ah fk it, check the video.

As for current gen ( PLEASE STOP with the wii isn't current gen, it's just the res SD to HD but play some games that are downgraded and you don't much difference except res)

this gen is almost finish and they will be announcing their new HW a year and half away, so tell me something I was expecting PS3 to actually destroy the 360 once, MGS4 .. I mean GOW3.. i mean let's wait for GT5?

But honestly this gen isn't like the last, and we must give props to MS for not getting swept by Sony. The real surprise is Nintendo, I remember the internet was a blaze when the PSP was announced. "the DS is doomed"... Time has gone by and it's still alive and kicking.The wii might not have the support that the HD brothers have but after playing MH3 it just shows that you can make it on the wii and it will sell ( PLEASE ADVERTISE). I rarely play the PS3 as I only love Valkary Chronicles and I'm waiting on a really good Jrpg, one that isn't on the 360 already.

Fanboys that have an alliance to one system or any systems is fine but try and not ruin it for others,I am a fan to developers/games. Capcom since Mega man 2 to present time with MH3, I do still remember the little guys like SunSoft with their NES games ( memories), but clearly Nintendo needs to bring Starfox, FZero,EARTHBOUND!!!!!! OUT NOWZ LOL

waiting for SC2 ..PC ALL THE WAY!!!, currently playing Swords of the new world on PC but once starcraft2 comes out... Protoss all the way baby.

then FFXIV... argh.. need.. to play ... all... * faint *

First.. I would like to say that Maxwell is the best mod EVER... And he is not THE Man, he is MY Man..

@OP

Hmmm.. Why would you ever think that? My impression of this site, is that it's filled with a bunch of undersexed and horny men. Guys who think that a hot woman would magically appear into their lives, in the meanwhile staying at home in front of the computer all day.. Or maybe meet a girl on the internet and fall in love with a gamer chick, who most likely is a dude. Masturbating 2 times a day, at least, to get rid of pent up frustration. Yeah, they talk about woman and sex in the off-topic section, which you probably haven't even been to, but we all know that gamer geeks don't get laid... Lies.. This site is full of liers... u____u

Xbone... the new "N" word   Apparently I troll MS now | Evidence | Evidence

Did you type this back in 2007?

The rise in sales of the PS3 makes it highly likely it won't finish last this generation.

But with that aside, Its not the sales that matter honestly, any smart fanboy(who am I kidding that's an oxymoron) would tell you that its the games that matter most.

And lately I have seen some awesome AAA games on PS3, Not to say 360 and Wii haven't had any. It's just that I see a brighter future for the PS3, IMO.



Around the Network

I do need help, just noticed I have a PC tower running my everyday apps, Laptop XPS running my pc games, and my homes consoles running on my plasma... And I have a full time gf that lives with me, time isn't on my side... to much to play...

I play MH3 and my PC mmo same time...

You are right, JerzeeBalla.
The only thing PS3 fanboys can cheer is that the PS3 is recovering its situation, thanks to the SLIM.
But it is still in third place.



It's winning in high rated exclusives games

Excuse the thread title, I couldnt get what the topic is into words. 

My question is this. I have been registered here for a while now, but this is my first (and probably last) thread. In the last couple of months I have seen numerous complaints about the behavior of Sony/PS3 fans (or fanboys more specifically.) I thought about why people are so upset at Sony fans seemingly superhuman ability to ignore that its in 3rd place and continue to speak as if it is indeed winning the console war. Almost every thread I enter turns into a back and forth between a group of Sony enthusiasts, and a group of people who swear that this site is run by Sony Nazis and the mods dont care. 

I personally think, and this is based on no kind of factual evidence, that the behavior is irritating because the PS3 is the last place console. This kind of behavior was present last gen, just in reverse. XBox fans talked as if it was God's gift to gamers, even though it was utterly destroyed sales wise. Ditto for the Gamecube. Sony fans hated when those camps had the audacity to place their "pitiful" consoles in the same breath as the almighty PS2.

Jump to this gen, and everything is switched. The Wii is crushing all comers, and the 360 is smacking Sony around in NA. Yet PS3 fans talk as if its the single most important gaming related creation ever. I think this really bothers, or annoys, a lot of people. Can anyone confirm this for me? Or tell me I am very stupid if thats the case? I just want to understand why everything that goes wrong on this board is blamed on Sony fans/fanboys. Are they the cause of every thread derailment? Are they the only ones trolling? The only ones creating threads designed to start trouble? I just want to make sense of what I am reading.

i think your missing the point.

wii is selling more than ps3, but ps3 has better games and is a better console.

if you prefer better sales fair enough, most on here prefer better games.

the best console is the one that gives the gamer the best games and best features, games are kinda comparable on ps360 and features wise ps3 is better, but i think overall ps3 will have the better games this gen.

judging from your post your obviously a little hurt!

Check my games owned list and try again. My PS3 is my primary system. I love it to death. I didnt ask for any reason other than understanding. But I imagine responses like this are part of the problem.

i am not going to say anything since the OP will definitely not believe me since i am a sony fanboy.

Why wouldnt I believe you? I have no allegiances here (although I did join the PS3 supporter list that CGI made, still waiting on my banner Cross.....) I simply asked because quite honestly, I am kinda put off by it. For instance, I was reading Selnor's Alan Wake graphics thread. He humbly took his lumps about an incorrect prediction, and next thing you know it was "PS3 fanboys run this site blah blah blah." I have seen this in at least 20 threads in the last month.

Im not saying it is or isnt true. Im just trying to get to the truth of the matter. And even if it is, was there not a time when other "factions" dominated the site? What did they all run away because Sony fans started to fight back?
