To be fair, Nintendo and Sega was pushing 3D gaming before Sony entered the fray. And we all know N64 was superior with the polygons.

When PS1 launched they made a platform that did a pretty good job pushing polygons. But people still give them way too much credit, Sony came into the industry because it was already thriving. People seem to think video games weren't popular until PS1.

It never thrived as much before the PS1.  Sony and PlayStation are what helped push gaming into the mainstream.  Deny it if you wish. I know sometimes the truth can hurt if you don't want to except it.

who is denieing that sony opened u the gaming market for the casuals?   gaming was a growing subculture long before sony entered the race.   i dont have a problem with more gamers, but i have a problem with the culture shift that came with it, the casuals were okay with mediocre games, and cared more for Cool games than for good games...  and now we life in a world were  EA can publish battlefield hardline for FULLPRICE and people go out and buy it...
