Mero, no offense, but PR is PR. I highly doubt that the PS3 will be around for 10 years. Am I the only one who remembers Nintendo saying the GameCube would be around for 8? It honestly could have been... y'know, if not for the fact that it sold horribly. If your main problem was longevity, you should have waited a year to have a good idea of which ones were selling the best. Sales dictate if something lasts, not what internal features it has. Why do you think your original Xbox only lasted four years? It had the most features, and online and HD *are* the future, the two things it did better than everyone else in the absolute. I mean, I'm an admitted Nintendo fanboy, so keep that in mind, but I like to think I put some thought into my fanboyineaty. There are plenty of reasons to own a PS3, but "because Sony PR said so" seems kinda silly to me. |
I'd like to thank you fishamaphone for your reply positively agree with u in regards to sales are the dictator of which console will win. But I am not buying my console based on who wins. Cause, taking nintendo as an example, a console could loose and still be in the market and then enter again just like nintendo with the wii. Look at the guy above he mentioned wii2, I am not ready to buy a console and then shift to another one. 360 will do the same and in the future they might be like PS3 or better I recall that i said that the DS will lose and a year after I ate my words. No body knows how the people react to certain consoles. Everyone makes a path and hopes to god its the right one and everyone has followed. But that's not a way of life and not way of fun, risk is everything here, and I hate it. SO I cleared my mind and bought what I though would make me have fun as long as possible even if it didn't, even if it was the same as any other console, even if it failed at that pointThe The underlying truth is that I was happy with what i choose and not what the people chose for me. the discussion we are having now, is because i bought a console other than u. isn't that true? :) If we bough the same console we wont be having this argument. |
ather than a person or idea.necissarilybought a Wii based on the Nintendo Go video that was running around back in '05, I'd probably argue jWii as much. But, granted, I realize I've got some horseblinds on, and I don't always see what I don't want to see.
All I was saying is that jhorseblinds Sony says "10 years," it doesn't mean they'll even have the machine on the market for five. :-p |
Well, u could be right, the worst thing that could happen to any company is that it can't fulfill its promises. If Sony did not go for 10 years I might buy the next Nintendo console or MS. But who knows what will happen in the future. PS3 just went out, I say we let it stay for a while, then we can argue with more clarity. For now, I have the most expensive console in the market (not debatable). So when things go horrible, I can easily trade for an Xbox360 or Wii before the price drops for PS3. But I could also stick with my PS3 cause when disaster happens and there is a price drop people might start to buy PS3 and it will be the winner in this case. THUS, we dont know how people will react, I say wait for the crisis to fall, either on Sony or any of the others, in the mean time we can only speculate. Just like my friend did I expect (with explanations): 1. Wii (huge turnover) 2.PS3 (Price drops) 3. Xbox 360 (did not win Japan, although won half of the Middle East) What I want: 1. PS3 (Cause I have one and want more games on it) 2. Xbox 360 (I am considering buying one for my young bro) 3. Wii (cause I think Wii2 is coming pretty soon) Those are just speculations and has 25% chance of happening. If any one disagrees with them, just say what u think in the same way I did with explanations. |
