The PS3 is not the future of gaming in my opinion and I agree with his statement. The future of gaming is more then just having the amazing lineup of games that the PS3 has and the horsepower to create beautiful games.

Take a look at what Nintendo has done with the Wii. Its innovative and expands the notion of console gaming to the next level. The same can be said for MS and XBOX Live, it presents something new and keeps the industry fresh.

The PS3's innovation is Blu Ray and as far as I am concerned that doesnt enhance my experiance as a gamer what so ever. I can watch HD movies but then again is that what I bought my PS3 for? Moreso, Sony has tried to integrate what MS and Nintendo have done into its product. Sixaxis? Home? The middle button on my controller? These concepts are pruely to combat and imitate companies who are actually working to deliver something new to the gaming world.

Everyone says that PS3 is the future of gaming but I disagree. The future of gaming encompasses so much more then the PS3 and Sony brings to the table. I will give them kudos for the hardware innovation but future of gaming...no.

May come across that I am bashing but I own a PS3 and definetly am looking forward to what is coming. I simply do not feel that Sony will be the benchmark that everyone will try to follow into the next gen like they did last gen. It is obvious that vast majority of gamers are more concerned with innovation then pretty graphics as is the case with both the Wii and 360.
I was honestly going to butcher this guy, but its not even worth it. Facts friend. Theres nothing in there. Just because you say a console is more innovative doesn't mean it is.
Past the Wii-mote, whats so innovative about the Wii? Its not gamers buying the Wii, its casuals first off. The Wii isn't beating the PS3/360 directly, its just going to another source.
XboxLive? Are you serious? The ability to send messages in game make in innovative? Or is it achievements. Other than that, what are you talking about? Graphics? NO. Game scale?NO. Its easier to make games on, MSFT pays for exclusives. THAT SIMPLE. The 360 does NOTHING the PS3 can't do.

 

Ok ill try to use smaller words for you:

1. Past the Wii-mote, whats so innovative about the Wii?

Hmmmm you realize that because of the Wiimote you have to play games completely differently then using a PS3 or 360 controller right.  Think about it Wii Fit, Wii Sports etc, the games you play are completely new and "innovative" because you play them in an entirely new way.  Try COD2 on Wii and then try it on the 360, you notice a difference?  That my friend is known as innovation, simple enough to understand.

2. XboxLive? Are you serious? The ability to send messages in game make in innovative? Or is it achievements. Other than that, what are you talking about? Graphics? NO. Game scale?NO

Ok this was a pretty dumb statement but yes they are innovative.  MS has definied, set the benchmark if you will for online gaming on consoles.  I am not going to even go into detail cause its apparent by your comments that you do not undertsand innovation but in any case yes its innovation.

3. The 360 does NOTHING the PS3 can't do.

You sure?  I was almost sure that the 360 can do everything that the PS3 can do and more?  Does the PS3 have integrated online yet? No sir enough said.
