Is it even hate, or is it just a general lack of confidence?

I mean, saying "the PS3 won't reach 10m" a few years ago doesn't seem any more off-base than saying "the PS3 will outsell the 360" now. It's all speculation based on little-to-no real data, just pessimism or optimism.

Now, saying "the PS3 will end this generation in dead last, according to a linear regression of its current trends," however, actually has a great deal of merit.

 

 I think at this point the PS3 has become a parody of itself, and as a result gets opened mocked.  Even more entertaining is when "MGS4" or "KZ2" is supposed to quiet the detractors.  Quite simply, PS3 owners don't "get it."  They have become part of the joke.

Thanks for the awesome sweeping generalisation. Not just fanboys, but all PS3 owners. Here I was happy with a good console with lots of good games, not particularly phased by the 360 having higher sales currently, but yeah, totally agree with you, PS3 owners are jokes. Because being an epic 360 fanboy, thats just way cooler, and clearly shows all us PS3 owners that your net-penis is many times bigger than ours. I am truly humbled. I just wish I had the energy and time required to hate a piece of consumer electronics.

 

 

It's OK.  I'd be mad too if I spent $600 on a Bluray player when clearly digital distribution and holographic disks are the future.   If you bought it to play games, don't worry.  I'm sure they'll come out with something good eventually.
