@ pakidan101 and avinash_tyagi

For a while I thought that the PS2 would lose that generation but that was because I believed that power was everything (XBOX), and I wasn't sure that Nintendo could do it (I was right about that). I love my PS2 though, I'm happy it won, but I almost bought an XBOX that generation... What a mistake that might have been. ;) Yeah, everyone thinks that I'm a Sony Fanboy but I'm really not, I think they should have a fair chance. My first console was the PS1, then my second the PS2 and hopefully my third the PS3, but I think that all consoles should have a fair shot. I always defend Sony because they shouldn't be picked on for some bad business decisions, and they can always turn things around... Just look at what they did last console genration, and even what Ninty is doing with the Wii. That's why I believe that the PS3 could come back, the PS2 was basically in this same predicament seven years ago. And isn't seven a luck number?


 Thats a basic definition of what a fanboy is....

How is that a definiton of a fanboy?  I said all consoles should have a fair chance...  I said I want PS3 to win because it has the games I want to play on there, if those games were to move to another console, I'd move right along with them.  I root for sony because they gave me my first gaming experience but that doesn't make me a fanboy.  If I want the sun to come out am I a sun fanboy?  If I don't want to die tomorrow, am I a life fanboy?  No, those are just things I want to happen.  Don't come into threads trolling...  Also, welcome to the forums, haven't seen you around here before.  Hope you have a good time :)

What's bolded basically.  Sony had a fair chance and they still have a fair chance.  The truth is though, they've been squandering that chance due to the bad decisions you don't want anyone to bring up.  Which makes having a discusion on sales hard.  Saying they arn't getting a fair chance is just making a fanboy excuse for why the system isn't selling as well.  It's not like the governments of the world are penalizing sony by putting large tariffs on it or something.

Either way good decisions deserve to be lauded, bad decisions ridiculed no matter who makes the system.
