its about abandoning the PS image to be more like XBOX.


You're missing the point. It's not about abadoning an image but having your Western developers cater to the Western audience. As the industry continues to change and evolve, so do the styles of developers to match the ever changing taste and expectations of the gaming public.



but consumer decide that outlaw, not developers ... and consumers have spoken ... KZ3, LBP, Resistance series, Infamous have ALL failed to meet the success to there predecessors and are in decline. Its also ignorant about western developers catering to a western audience for 2 reasons: as a developer you should be catering to as many ppl as possible regardless of region and then they wonder  why they cant penetrate japan..., and this western audience is not what made playstation.. playstation fans are not a western audience ... thats XBOX AKA point of my thread.


How many successful Eastern games did Sony MAKE last gen again?


Gawd Fuckin Dammit

Attention everybody: Capslocked for clarity

THIS IS NOT ABOUT EAST VS WEST... THIS IS ABOUT SONYS 1ST PARTY SELLING OUT TO CREATE MORE XBOX STYLED GAMES IN FAVOR OF CREATING THE RE PERSONAL STYLE OF GAMES THAT MADE THEM POPULAR TO BEGIN WITH

THIS IS NOT ABOUT SONY CLONING/COPYING MS GAMES

THIS IS NOT ABOUT EAST VS WEST

THIS IS ABOUT PLAYSTATION SELLING ITS IDENTITY THAT IT WORKED UP TO THIS GEN TO CREATE IN FAVOR OF GETTING THE XBOX CROW..PPL WHO DID NOT CREATE PLAYSTATION *GASP FOR AIR*

keep up with the thread.. or i wont nswer u anyfuther jay520



I was replying to the statement where you said playstation fans aren't a western audience...

Either way, Sony's isn't copying from Xbox. They may have borrowed a few elements from a few games for some of their games. But that's what happens when you actually have some competition. A company will naturally try to pull consumers from another audience. I don't see why you have a problem with that. It's not like all of Sony's studios are following the Xbox route. You still have original PS style games like Ratchet & Clank , God of War, Modnation Racers, Gran Turismo, LittleBigPlanet etc. All those IP's coupled with the so called Xbox 'clones' like Killzone, Resistance, etc. And you have a pretty diverse library. You got a decent amount of games for 'core' PS fans along with a decent amount of games to attract the Xbox owners.

I don't see how typing in caps or using such profanity is supposed to help this discussion. It just makes reading your posts an annoyance. If that's the way you're going to communicate, then I'll happily leave.
