It doesn't suck but its hardly problem free, to be honest a large amount of the problem actually came from Sonys bumbling PR. Telling consumers they will buy the console even if it doesn't have games, telling them rumble is 'last gen' then adding it and saying that BC is an important part of their strategy then dropping it like a rock are just some of the major screw ups their PR team has made in the last year or so.

However if you want me to list some problems with the console;
Unnecessary use of HD media adding to the launch price
Said launch price being far too high
Actual physical size being extremely large
Apparently extremely hard to develop for leading to huge dev budgets
Far too many changes causing large amounts of confusion (20GB, 40GB, 60GB, 80GB)
None of them make the console suck by any means though.

lol I quoted that onto my Microsoft OneNote app so I can post it again for reference, and I have you as the quoter. I also saved the link to this thread as reference as to end all PS3 fanboy hate threads.

To answer the OP, I don't think it sucks. I just hate how Sony marketed the system and how they try to lower the price by lying and backstabbing customers on the commercial, BY NOT SAYING WHY THE SYSTEM COSTS $399. They NEED to mention WHY the 40GB model is being sold at that price and what features, or lack there of.


 I really don't like you, and you don't seem to understand that commercials aren't telling you why something costs what it does, its representing the console.

Again, do Wii commercials tell you that the Console is $250 because it uses old technology, does it tell you that it only costs $150 to make a Wii, and they are charging you a full $100 extra? No. Your argument FAILS. Honestly, do you really think ANY company would say what their product doesn't have? Use common sense.

Even if you were to argue that it is only $399 because they dropped BC, it's still well worth it. AND it still has more features then both other consoles.
