Are you truly trying to say that people think of Gran Turismo when they think of Playstation? Yup, that's what I'm saying. It may be Sony's best selling 1st party title but it is not what defines the playstation. Actually it is. Defining titles get to be defining titles by selling copies of the game. If no one buys it then there is no one to call it a defining ttle. When I hear people talking about Playstation their is a viariety of titles they boast about. Of course they do. I bet they boast about many titles, and that doesn't make them all defining. I bet some PS3 owners boast about Madden. It doesn't make it defining. When I think of popular titles on the XBOX, what comes to mind? Who cares? You don't own a 360 and you seem to despise it. No one would think of you as a source of information regarding the console. Halo and Gears, Fable never even passes my mind until someone brings it up. If someone is bringing Fable up to you, that would fall under "defining" with the definition you gave me. Go ahead and check. Same goes for Nintendo and Mario. They have become synonymous with one another. Wii branded games have now become synonymous too with Wii. Frankly I don't even know why you're fighting me on this one. 80 million in sales across four Wii branded games is pretty telling to how defining it is for the Wii.

You are seriously delusional to think otherwise. That's just the alcohol. I'm usually fairly undelusional. Any self respecting gamer will tell you the same thing. Find me one other than yourself. Preferably a multi-console owner.

And you refute it as if it is being explained in this thread as a bad thing. No one is saying it is or isn't. Yet you find the need to bring about arguments that previously never existed. You brought the argument into existence. I merely replied to you with a rebuttal.

And it was obviously not a dodge tactic for I still answered to your reply in the same post. You answered very little of what I originally wrote to you. I was just stating an observation of your primal need to find some kind of underlining fanboy rant in everything I post when their isn't one. Are you serious? I give honest???, unbiased??? opinions and you always try to put me on the chopping block because of it. You've got to be fucking kidding with that last bit. If so then bravo. You are the new RolStoppable. Find me somebody on this site that thinks you're unbiased that is also familiar with your posting history. You can even make it a PS3 owner. Please poll this site for the answer, becuase I'd like to see the results.

 

 

I dont beleive sales dictate what defines a console. Plenty of games sell well but that doesnt mean that they are a gamer's favorite series. That just means many people played it.

check my other post to Parasitic to see how I conclude what games defines a system.

unbiased doesn't mean I don't have a preference or that I cannot decide between two opposing views.

I like Playstation, big surprise. But I like Playstation because for me it gives me more bang for my buck. I have an all access media player which rarely gives me proprietary mumbo jumbo, a gaming system that offers me some of the most robust and quality titles around, and at a reasonable price(exspensiveness gauged by what Im getting for my dollar). It also gives me free online. I love the fact Sony seems to work against the grain just to get out what I want in a game. It is not irrational or imcomprehensible.

I dont hate the 360, I do hate Microsoft, a company that has spent it's entire lifespan sucking up smaller more talented companies and ruining their quality with mediocre content. I hate the fact that the 360 has such an outrageous failure rate, forces proprietary accessories on you(a step back from the XBOX) with the illussion that you save more money on the system. I hate the fact that you have to pay for live, even though MS is one of the wealthiest companies in the world.

I may not own a Xbox or 360, but I have thought about purchasing them. I initially was going to get a Xbox after years of only owning a PS2. Yet that was annexed after MS stopped supporting it just aftere the 360's release. I also thought about owning a 360, then I saw the failure rate. In my mind, I gave them both a chance.

I can make a decision and still be fair about it...
