While that is true, Xbox definetly gets a lot less flack than PS and Nintendo. |
Sony and Nintendo have bigger fanbases than MS. It makes sense that they would see more flack for things than Microsoft does.
| Dr.Henry_Killinger said: Its no wonder, Nintendo hardly ever taps into its wide swath of earlier ips, and why PSN/PS+ has to give away free games and and only have multiplayer behind a paywall to even be on the same tier as "XBOX LIVE GOLD" |
I can't even decipher what this part is supposed to mean. I think the moral of this story is companies like making money?
| Dr.Henry_Killinger said: There was more outrage at the PSN hack then the RROD. |
Bull shit. It might have SEEMED like there was more outrage, but that's only because 100% of people affected by the PSN hack were people who could come online and bitch about it. Many RROD victims were naturally people who don't come online. If there wasn't an extremely large amount of bitching about RROD, MS wouldn't have spent a billion dollars fixing it.
| Dr.Henry_Killinger said: I mean Xbox had the audacity to announce DRM for the platform possibly under the assumption that PS would do the same, and if they did PS would definetly get the blame. |
Kind of like how many Sony fans blame MS for Sony charging for online play? Either way, this part is just opinionated. Furthermore it goes back to point #1. Sony has a larger userbase around the world. If two companies are doing the same thing, you'll see more bitching about the one with the bigger userbase.
| Dr.Henry_Killinger said: They practically abandoned the OG Xbox in the first year of the 360, trying to force xbox owners into upgrading when the ps2 was still getting support years after despite releasing earlier. |
Same as Nintendo practically abandoned the GCN in the first year of the Wii? That's the thing, companies don't typically support things that don't sell very well or lose them money.
| Dr.Henry_Killinger said: Unlike Playstation and Nintendo, the former part of a company that has been predicted for bankruptcy for about 8 years and the later than soely depends on its profits from the game industry, Xbox is owned by Microsoft, which has tons of money, and regardless of what their investors think, they aren't going to abandon MS for the xbox brand alone, Xbox could easily out do Nintendo and PlayStation, which they only did with the OG Xbox, but now they are lagging behind PS because of their own prideful mistakes. Xbox is definetly not held to the same standard as PS or Nintendo, and it definetly shows. |
So... because they are a good business that makes money, they should become a bad business and lose money? Brilliant logic. You should have tl;dr your post and just said fans of these companies edit and adapt their opinions depending on what their companies do. You could make this same list for Nintendo and Sony fans.
