Which proves my point that it's an exaggeration. Languages give us a range of words to acurately describe certain things. "no" effort is thus wrong. Also, Pokemon and Mario are bad comparisons. Pokemon has always sold by far the best on handhelds (so your comparison would be better if you were talking about wiiu) and there have been multiple Mario games on every ninty handheld to date. 

I will end this here. Sony tried, but not enough and did not make the right decisions on several matters. Whether people's expectations were unrealistic or they lack the ability to appreciate what they can get is a different matter.


I don't think anyone expects their next console to get less games.  Those are totally unrealistic expectations.  I don't think people expecting to see more games in year 2 and 3 for their console than the 1st are unrealistic expecations at all. They are totally the standard expectations.  

There was no exagerration. Learn english.  

  • 3Hardly any:you’ll be back in no time

First of all, attacking someone is a clear indication that you've lost an argument. I won't stoop to that level and respond in kind, but here's why you're wrong:

"In no time"  is an expression. You can't use "no" wherever you want instead of "hardly any", as in "there is no one in the house", "you have no evidence to back up this theory". Hence you have:

1. "You failed your essay because you hardly put any effort...", which means that you put some effort, but it was not enough. You might have needed to use at least 10 references and used only two. 

2. "You failed your essay because you put no effort...": suggests that you read the wikipedia page and paraphrased what you read there instead of doing any proper research. 

While the first essay would get a 35/100 (with 40 being the minimum to pass the course), the second would get a 20/100, because it was terrible (though still on topic. An off topic essay would get a 0/100).

 

You can disagree all you want (you're entitled to your own opinion), but attacking someone is not a very respectable way of expressing your disagreement. Also, when you criticize one's language skills, make sure you're at least correct.
