Why are so many people on message boards threatened by PS3?

Just let them rot in hatred my friend.

The truth I found is this, or at least the way I LIKE to explain it:

Many people hate the PS3 'cause it's not PS2. Many of the haters are people who were actually "fond" of the PS brand and many of them even loved their PS1/2. However, not many of them were able to afford the PS3 and they hate Sony for that. Some bunch of these now turned haters did buy the PS3, but hated it after a short while since its first year it had close to no games and the world had been caught up on this "Live" thing.

Sony just didn't deliver in time and to the expectations of these people. And most of them had to turn to Microsoft, and these so-called "Xbots" won't say it, but underneath their most wretched hate for the Sony system lies the HATRED for their OWN 360. Lol, yeah this is crazy, but they actually also hate Sony 'cause they had to content with this RRODing, disc-scratching, online-taxing machine.

Many of these haters loved blindly their previous PS systems. Don't let any of them hypocites tell you otherwise, If they owned a PS system they certainly LOVED it.

Then there's the little bunch who never bought/owned a PlayStation. Nevermind about them, those are not (or were not) gamers (or were not on this Earth at the time), one or the other, there's no other explanation.

Now the haters profess this love for the 360 and like to call Sony names like "liars and arrogant" when the MS executives never had the ballz to pull out their ridiculously deffective garbage off the shelves and make gamers run chores with their consoles like pampering it with towels and singing lulabies to it. Sending it every off week for repairs and paying a service if just to play a game mode included in one of your games just for once. Seriously, I would hate Sony too I'd have to put up with THAT just because that arrogant Sony mess it up.

So I say to you, pay no attention, these people are RRODing inside.

 

I bought and owned a PS1 for 8 months or so and I was one of the first people to buy one right when it came out.  Guess what???  It overheated like most of the first generation PS1 right after the warranty ran out (think it was only 6 month warranty back then).   That is why I dislike Sony and that is why I will never buy another Sony product again.  PS2 probably sold so many from rebuys since so many people had to rebuy another system due to it being defective.  There are some that claim to have never had any problems with PS2 but there are plenty that had many defective systems (2-3+).  My hatred toward Sony might be a little over the top but when they implied to me while on the phone with them about the PS1 that it was my fault that I played it on carpet (which the carpet was barely any shag carpet but very small almost like a wood floor) was the reason that it had overheating issues (the vents were never blocked) was the last straw.  Also, GoldenEye was released around this time and I then switched to N64.  I did get another PS1 (I sent back the first PS1 and paid the $75 for a new one, the 2nd generation one) but I eventually sold it.  Their customer service is what lost me for good.  To imply people that simply didn't own a PS1 or PS2 as non gamers is probably the worse statement I have seen in awhile (besides most of BTFeather55's arguements).
