Okay, Gran Turismo 6's confirmation has driven me to make this thread

1st and foremost PLEASE GOD LET GT6 BE FOR PS4!!!

Now it is quite obvious that Sony is known for releasing their Playstation platforms IN competition. What do i mean by this you ask? well the 5th generation was already being lead by the Sega Saturn before the PlayStation was brought to the market. The 6th Generation was already being lead by the Sega Dreamcast before the PlayStation 2 was brought to the market and the 7th Generation(present) was already being lead by the Xbox 360 before the PlayStation 3 was brought to the market. PlayStation Portable and PlayStation Vita included.

 

 

eh... ps1 and saturn launched almost simultanously, ps2 was there before xbox and gamecube. the ps3 is the only thing that came late. and btw, the saturn didn't lead anything except price ;)


yes i know but Saturn was still launched before the ps1 at the end of the day :)

 

and Dreamcast was launched before the ps2 so..


but the point was another one... the delay between saturn and psx was ridiculously small and dreamcast was no real competition, as anyone knows. the hardware was not that bad, was overall it was the wii in that generation, speaking of hw-specs. the point is: sony was late *only* with ps3 - with confidence, of course, after dominating the market with psx and ps2. it's nice to see that it turned out otherwise.


but the point was another one... the delay between saturn and psx was ridiculously small

but still ps1 launched after the saturn so that would mean that they launched IN competition like i said in the OP

 

i really dont get the point you are trying to make

and dreamcast was no real competition

umm no

Dreamcast was in fact REAL competition. Sony just made them LOOK like they weren't real competition

 

the hardware was not that bad, was overall it was the wii in that generation, speaking of hw-specs.

this is where you are incorrect my good sir ;)

the ps3 and 360 are THIS GEN consoles with THIS GEN hw while the wii is a THIS GEN console with LAST GEN hw

in order for the Dreamcast to be the "wii" of the 6th generation, the Dreamcast would have needed to have the same graphics as the Nintendo 64(the best LAST GEN hw at that time)

 

so the Dreamcast is NOT the "wii" of the 6th generation. The Dreamcast is simply the "Dreamcast" of that generation

;)

 

sony was late *only* with ps3

this is false information mr. walsufnir
