If brand loyalty stops you from enjoying games then you having bigger issues than what system you play.  They are games designed to be enjoyable and MS isn't going to do anything special for you if you don't play the PS3.  It's rather amazing that you'd give up enjoyment of a variety of games due to loyalty to a company who will never do anything special for you and could probably care less about you.  You deserve to miss out on the plethora of great games spreading many consoles.

 

Brand loyalty is an assumption... No where did he state it was because he was loyal to Microsoft.

If someone had a Sony TV in the living room and a Samsung in the same room as well, having one TV does diminish significantly the potential usefulness of the other TV.

 

 

Brand loyalty my have been bad assumption but he states in the OP that he is biased towards the 360 so my point still stands.

Nope it doesn't stand at all. The value of a 2nd console is far less than the first, especially in an age where the consoles themselves are networked. You can't access Xbox Live on the PS3, you can't play with your Xbox 360 friends on the PS3, if you have games on the PS3 which are good for local play you can't justify the purchase of a 2nd controller to take advantage of them as easily. You don't get achievements playing a PS3 game and the same applies in reverse if the PS3 is your primary console and the 360 is your secondary console.

Naturally anyone who gravitates towards one would see much lower value in the other, hence bias. Even splitting your time between the two consoles is an inconvenience to the average person.





I haven't touched my PS3 for ages, however, my Swiffer Sweeper has been getting a lot of action as of late.

 

 

 

 

 




It could be anything really, from an inate preference, to game interests, to even just going through phases, which explains how I game. I go to a system, play a few games on it, and then go to another system for a few games.

I think the "problem" is your personal taste, but it isn't really a problem. I wouldn't say that this has anything to do with bias. It's a matter of opinion in the end and when PS3 games don't appeal to you it isn't your fault.

I mean, I play PS3 almost every day, but I haven't used my 360 for 2 months now.

unfortunantly, I have the opposite bias for my PS3. I play way more of their exclusives. Its really stupid and silly as they both offer a great product. Still I am probably not that bad because I really just like to see good competion in gaming. If gamers didn't support Sony they might have moved out of the console business and I think alot of great experiences would be lost. Plus Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo are great because they push each other to maker better games.



Umm... If you have a nice TV then Uncharted1&2 should make you fall in love with your ps3.



My problem is not getting enough play time on my PS3.

It's not my only problem... just sayin'.
