Forums - Sony - Why I don't like the PS3

scorptile said:
wasnt it not too long ago it was reported disney signed a deal with nintendo exclusively?? hhmm doesnt sound too good to be for the ps3. why i dont like the ps3 is the games are 60 yes 60 dollars apiece way too much, i dont own a HDTV so the graphics will look as good as what the wii puts out. and lastly being a man with a family teh ps3 price is dumb. no way i am going to pay over 300 for something that has no staying power. and for all the ps3 fanboys out there (you know who you are) the ps3 IS the GCN this gen.

So, till some 2009 or 2010 you are not going to get HDTV? =)) And by the time of KH3 release, ps3 will cost probably 299$, so don`t woory about price. Still for so HIGH quality peace of hardware, even 600$ is good price. Come on, you buy ps3 for next 5 years, 10$ per month, is that MUCH for you? And now, it`s only 7$, for great media center, which has blu-ray player in it.

About PS3 = GC, that`s is really LOL. =) PS3 has awesome 3rd party exclusive games + amazing 1st/2nd party games, much MORE then GC had.



Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...

 If you want to lock this so fast why did you even made this thread?






With that argument you could say that Disney supports Microsoft because they support Xbox live Video Market Place with tons of movies. Square also supports Microsoft with FF XI and The Last Remnant, and Infinite Undiscovery. Kingdom Hearts will probably go to the Wii though because of the "type" of userbase.

Aha! The truth comes out. Read: Why I don't like the PS3, not why I don't like Sony. I like Sony. Not as much as Nintendo, but I've always liked them since the PS1. OK, this MAY or MAY NOT be convincing, but I guess it'll be a good read on my personal profile. This was before I started becoming a "Nintendo fanboy." It all starts once I saw the KH2: FM+ secret ending. I saw the secret ending BEFORE KH2: FM+ was even released. It appears it was possibly leaked. Anyway, I thought it was cool. I thought THAT was KH3. At the time, I was 100% sure KH3 was gonna go to the PS3. I was like "*Sigh* Whatever. Coming in 2010 probably ." I didn't care MUCH. I thought all SE games would go to PS3 by default. But I wanted a Wii, and $600 was not worth it. Even if I was a big KH fan. I bought a Wii on January 21 this year. I beat TP and was back on the computer. Still no "fanboy." February -- Ahh...the month that changed everything. I was surfing around and caught a glimpse of a KH3 Wii rumor. It caught my interest. I wanted KH3 on Wii! So I went to GameFAQs and posted some rumors, saying I wanted KH3 on Wii. Nothing else. Now I became a "Nintendo fanboy"...because of the rumors. I took this other places too. I NEEDED KH3 on Wii. Now here comes the juicy part. KH3 also has a chance on the PS3. I won't allow that! No way PS3 will take KH3! NEVER!!! So, then I fully became a "Nintendo fanboy." Now I don't like PS3. Why? It's not because of so-called "fanboyism" but fear of KH3 on the PS3. As long as I get/got KH3 on the Wii, I don't care what else happened. I don't hate Sony. I only don't like the PS3 because I want KH3 on the Wii. That's it. Lame excuse for not liking the PS3, huh? Now I know you guys will mock me, but I don't care. Luckily KH3 on Wii is starting to look up Lol.

 LMFAO I know I've asked you this before, but how old are you?

If you're going to be 16 by 2010, that makes you 13 now, which means you were about 8 when KH1 came out....at that age, how did you even comprehend the deep overtones, and depth of the story overall? Or did you just "like" the game because Mickey mouse was on the front?

lmfao that must be it..

I think with PS3 being supported by disney, and Square definitely being behind the PS3 more than any other console, KH3 will definitely be on the PS3. I think it is possible that they will make it for the Wii and PS2 as well.

I dont think that it will ever be a Wii exclusive, but its possible to be a multiplatform release. As a PS3 owner I wouldnt mind that.

 

Disney supports Sony by supporting Blu-ray...a movie format. Movies=/=games. @leo-j He acts like a kid? How? And the only Disney games coming to the PS3 are the Disney crapfest that come to every system. Yet Disney have only praised the Wii and DS for the games. P.S. Hmm...I let this go far enough Lock time.

im guessing you're the youngest person to work for disney if you're already able to confirm  that information.




Well, before we can predict which console KHIII will go to, people first need to think about WHEN the game will be announced AND be ready to be sold. Remember, the guy making this game said that he will start making the game AFTER FFXIII is done...and we already know that won't happen till late 2009 or even 2010!! That is 2-3 years away from now...a lot can happen till they announce the game, let alone start developing it.

One possibility would be that the PS3 would start to improve significantly after the price cut. Sure, they might not get their exclusives back....DMC 5 is now permanently going to be a multi-platform, MH3 will stay as a Wii exclusive, and GTAIV will have exclusive episodic contents for the 360. But maybe there might be future games that will stay for the PS3 and KH3 might be one of them if S-E decides that the PS3 is making enough of a progress to deem it profitable.

Another possibility would be that Nintendo might be working on Wii 2 by that time and the PS3 would stick with their 10-year plan and it might be worth it to make it for the PS3.

In my honest opinion, I believe it has a definite chance to come to the Wii, for a few reasons:

1) It's not as "hardcore" as the main FF series. Just like FFCC, it has the casual persona that is accessible to all gamers, from the young crowd like Soriku, to the older generations who love Cloud and the other FF characters. No matter what people might want to believe otherwise, the PS3 is indeed much much different from the PS1 and PS2 in that those consoles had every type of game to appeal to everybody. The PS3, on the other hand, tries to do what the 360 is doing, which is to go after the typical, small hardcore crowd....a crowd which contains even smaller amounts of KH fans. I say this because the KH fans are largely the casual gamers, not the "hardcore" gamers who are willing to spend loads of money to play games.

2) KH is different from the FF series because of Disney characters. And who loves Disney characters more? Casual to non-gamers who may watch loads of Disney movies or have kids that love Mickey? Or the "hardcore" gamers that love spilling blood in Heavenly Sword or shooting aliens in Resistance? I'll put my money on the Casuals and Non-gamers to loving Disney more. And these days, the casuals and non-gamers have already placed their money on the Wii or spending their time trying to get a Wii.

3) Graphics is not important, but accessibility. I mean really, did people love the KH series because of the graphics? If that is so, good luck having fun because you are only going to enjoy 20-30 minutes of your time at most since there were very few CG cut-scenes in the game. The game was fun not because of the graphics, but DESPITE the graphics of the PS2. The game was on the PS2 not because it had the best graphics, but because EVERYONE had one. And since right now it seems as if EVERYONE wants a Wii, it might be the right system.

If the PS3 gamers are going to say that S-E will not abandon their Sony fans by putting it on the Wii, check out Soriku. He is one of the many KH fans like me who have liked it when it was on the PS2, but have a Wii right now. I'm sorry to say, but it is not S-E who will be abandoning the fans, but Sony who have made their system inaccessible to the public except to the dedicated "hardcore" players who have loads of cash to spend just for gaming. And yes, you can say "Well, it is $400 now and its the same price as the 360 pro so isn't that good enough?!?" Well, look at the Wii. In a year, it has already passed the 360's two-year lead and its already well above it B4 the Christmas season. This shows that even a $400 tag price is STILL not a popular price tag for the majority of consumers. If Disney and S-E wants to get their money back + a profit, they know that the Wii is the place to put their game.

Sorry if this post is too long and sorry if I end up repeating somebody else since this took a long time to type up....and yes, I agree that it is a stupid reason to hate the PS3 b/c you don't want a specific game to be there and its too expensive....no console deserves to be hated...disliked or maybe not your cup of tea, but hate is such a strong word....the PS3 is a great system but it sadly could have been soooo much better in soooo many different ways.

 what usebase?  there isnt a single userbase not tapped into by kh.  casual-disney, hardcore-ff/action, occasional-rpg/disney/ff.  every single userbase is tapped into.  that doesnt apply to either wii or ps3 right now.

 the only reason i dont want it on wii (graphics aside, cuz i can deal with that although it would be nice) is that its meant for a system with buttons.  they said the ds doesnt have enough buttons so they need workarounds since they wont use the touch screen.



my pillars of gaming: kh, naughty dog, insomniac, ssb, gow, ff

i officially boycott boycotts.  crap.
