I thought the smart gamers were all on the DS! Brain Age, Sudoku, Crosswords, all the language trainers...

You are thinking of scrabble nazis, smart gammers play EU and Hearts of Iron.

Sony experiments more and never goes for the simple option. That is the philosophy of PS3 more than you expect.

looks like sony remains the headliner in the gaming industry even at last place. Now, everyone and their grandmother has the explanation for sony's woes. A weird twist: last place console is also the most popular lol

lol, that's such bullshit. It's not any "artsier" than any other console. It's just a justification for it losing that is aimed to demean anybody who doesn't have an interest in one. Like the girl that says people don't like her because she's too beautiful, or the jguy in school who gets his ass kicked and claims it's because he's so smart and they are just jealous. Maybe, just maybe the girl is a bitch and the guy is a complete jack ass. It's not because Sony's little black box is too high brow for the masses that just don't get how refined and brilliant it is. It's because it's too expensive, there's a terrible economy, the competition has almost the exact same library for way cheaper, bad press and word of mouth, the list goes on and on. It's not because "dur, I dun get this...Killzone? What's that? I go play teh haloz now."

Pretentious jackass bullshit cock.

This is why I have always liked Sony more than the other two companies...why is being artsy a bad thing?



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

it's not. However, based on the article, I failed to see why Sony is more artsy than Wii or 360. By the same logic, I think Gamecube failed cause it's too artsy.



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

Don't forget the dreamcast, the dreamcast definitely must have been too artsy. Jet Grind Radio, Shen Mue, Sea man, that's what caused it to fail. It artsied itself to death.
