In the last two weeks(sarcasm) people realize that the PS3 only has two great exclusive games, both of which are in genres that most hardcore gamers claim to "hate," while at the same time delivering absolutely no JRPG's worth mentioning, which was the "bread and butter" genre of the PS2. Therefore, it can be assumed that PS3 fanboy jargon is largely due to cognitive dissonance, and the future promise of two games: MGS4 and FFXIII. Considering the competition the console is going up against, the poor relative value ratio, and the fact that the console is being hyped on promise rather than actually delivering, I don't find it too far fetched to be bitter when the fanboys try to tell me how much the Wii sucks. One of the major issues I have on this forum and the intenet in general is when I see PS3 only owners getting overly excited when they prospect of a new, maybe good, game comes out. Even the critics are seem to overly hype games that show any promise which are PS3 exclusives. To the onlooker, it would appear all "hardcore" gamers want the PS3 to dominate this generation, and will go as far as to spread lies to make it appear as though that is actually happening. My sad opinion's are these:
A. The PS3 has a weak library of games considering its time on the market. The library that does exist is tailored to a userbase that certainly doesn't match the core PS2 userbase. B. Sony seems to be bleeding money. C. The PS3 is currently the last place system, significantly. This will probably change, but unfortunately this change isn't due to quality games, but rather strong brand name in Others and poor hardware quality of its competition in the United States. D. The Wii has no weaknesses vs the PS3 on the marketing scene and many advantages. There is no brand name or hardware reliability advantage over the Wii. E. The PS3's lineup is roughly equivelant to the 360's. For the next year, this is too little too late, for me, since the 360 has had quality lineups like this for the past 2 years, where the PS3 has been a virtual Desolace since launch. F. People don't like constantly hearing that a system with so many problems is better than theirs. Fanboys act like I just made up these problems and they don't exist. "The PS3 is the best system I've ever owned." Please.
So yeah, I, a PS360 owner, am a little bitter about the snobby attitude PS3 fanboys have towards the 360 and the Wii. That's why others have hate for the console, and that's why I hate on it here. It's not so much the faults of the system, but rather the insistance of fanboys that none of these faults exist, and the further claims that faults in the other two consoles are worse than they are. What's worse is the shiesters trying to hock n00bs PS3's on this forum just to increase the userbase by telling half-truths and exagerations. |
I will pay more attention to your future posts.
This is a balanced and logical look at the current state of the PS3 relative to its competition.
