PS VITA = LIFE

The official Vita thread http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=130023&page=1

The Chinese invented Removable type and the printing press. Gutenberg took these ideas and refined them with a more mass-marketable device and got all the credit.

History repeats itself with almost every device.  The credit never goes the the original creator, but the one who sells it to the masses.  Think Edison with his Lightbulb and Microsoft with Windows.



Six upcoming games you should look into:

 

  

its all relative. this argument can go on for days. but in the end nobody wins. theoretically you can argue sony or nintendo did it first. but that wouldn't be entirely true. although i've made a case for sony in a nintendo forum. the truth (witch is also something i argued)is neither. its been in research for years so there u have it. even before sony or nintendo did it. they just didi it the best, and sony won't haft to release a move motion pluse because  of 1:1 tracking.

When Microsoft copies: "Oh look, Microsoft is up to its old tricks."

When Sony copies: "Shame on you Sony. Be more original like Nintendo."

When Nintendo copies: "Everyone copies someone at some point. It's normal."

I completely agree, to me it seems like people only rag on Sony for coping, or doing something similar to other companies. Look at both the original and the xbox 360 controllers, they are basically copies of the dreamcast and dualshock controllers respectively, but most ppl especially 360 users say microsoft simply improved on those controllers. I wouldnt care as much is 360 users didnt rag on sony for implemeting things currently on the 360 and wii, but move is imo a ripoff of the wiimote but if its better idc.

Completely false. Had Sony kept their trap shut about the Wii for the previous 3-4 years noone would be giving them crap for it. Its not that they copied or are percieved to have copied, its that they dissed the Wii first and then they copied. Look at my signature for illustrative purposes. Sony as an arrogant company are getting what they deserve.

The reason why noone gives a crap about the similarities between the Eyetoy and Natal is because Microsoft didn't first go around and tell everyone at any available opportunity how much the PS2 + Eyetoy combination sucked. What Sony has said in the past is again coming home to roost.



Tease.

to ne honest they all copy each other. it generaly goes in the order of nintendo copy something from fairley low key people. sony then copy nintendo and make it better than it was before and microsoft copies sony then tries to pass it of as an all new expiriance until they realise there not folling anyone :P



Sony's eyetoy and sixaxis were a bust. How many of you have and use your eyetoy or use the sixaxis in playing your ps3 games?
Not alot, actually barely alot.

If sony would hav just improved their eyetoy and their controller, they could have done something with it
