Can't the same be said for Microsoft?  Nintendo has only ever looked up at one company you know....lol. 

Edit: Actually, did Xbox 1 beat Gamecube? Perhaps I spoke too soon lol.

The Sony head offices are much taller than the Microsoft or Nintendo ones... they obviously have a greater epeen or greater need to show it off.

Hey, Sony isn't all about the epeen.  They even have a highly advanced black vibrator coming out for the ladies.  Truly, Sony and the PS3 do EVERYTHING.  Although Kinect can really make an impact in this area if utilized properly. 

You say "Hey, Sony isn't all about the epeen." then you go on to say that they have highly advanced epeen, "They even have a highly advanced black vibrator coming out for the ladies." You sir are a total contradiction as is Sony. You say one thing and then directly contradict it with your actions or words immediately afterwards.

But yes, as you said Kinect can make an impact in this area for it's total lack of epeen. It is the untapped virgin market which Microsoft is going for, Kinect is for people who don't feel confortable touching epeen.

By the way. I heard when Sony were developing the DS1 Ken Kuturagi the famous and ballsy executive whipped out his package and placed his balls on the schematic paper and traced a circle around each one. Each ball became one of the famous pair of analogue sticks first introduced with the PS1.

So Sony's epeen.......made the greatest controller of all time?..................*head explodes*

And about the first part, Sony's epeen is not utilized for the enjoyment of said epeen, but for the ladies who use it.  Big difference, Sony needs those soccer moms.

And I think it's a little morally murky for Microsoft to release something for "people who don't feel confortable touching epeen" while also having a violent sex simulator on their console.  You know Mass Effect, as famously exposed by FOX News for its hours of debauchery.

Honestly, we should focus on the cause of all this epeen business.  I mean, Ninty named their console after it.  That's just sick.

MS doesn't even put out that many shooters. The 360 just happens to have a huge shooting fan base courtesy of Halo.

This is just Sony spewing out crap because they can't win sales of that genre.

Same as Turn 10 crapping on GT.  Corporate banter.  What's funny is that they don't care about this stuff one/zillionth of the amount that we do lol.  I don't really care, I just like smiting misinformed people I think.  :D

From what I read, Turn 10 basically claimed they developed a better racer. They hardly crapped on GT.

From what I remember, they threw a number of digs on separate occasions, and topped it off with jaw dropping arrogance.  Both companies hurl crap.  We make it more serious than it is.

I figured now would be as good of a time as any to debate the perception of the 360 as a "shooterbox." Peter Dille didn't exactly say that, but it's directly implied with his comments about Microsoft.

Anyway my take is that this is pretty ironic considering that the PS3 has more exclusive shooters and more shooters published by Sony than the 360 has by Microsoft.

Taking a gander at the list:

Sony:
Resistance
Resistance 2
Resistance 3
SOCOM: US Navy Seals Confrontation
SOCOM 4
Killzone 2
Killzone 3
Warhawk
MAG

Microsoft:
Halo 3
Halo 3 ODST
Halo Reach
Gears of War (also on PC)
Gears of War 2
Gears of War 3
Left 4 Dead (also on PC, published by Valve)
Left 4 Dead 2 (also on PC, published by Valve)

So that's 9 to 8 Sony or 9 to 5 Sony if you wanna discount the "console exclusives." What does everyone else think of Dille's comments? Is it coincidental that they were made the release of Halo Reach?

 

He is talking about genre. Microsoft's library is...well, pretty heavily packed with one particular genre. Most of what 360 got is shooters where as PS3 has a variety of different genre besides shooters. You have to agree with that. Unless i'm mistaken.



CPU: Ryzen 9950X3D
GPU: MSI 4090 SUPRIM X 24G
Motherboard: MSI MEG X670E GODLIKE
RAM: CORSAIR DOMINATOR PLATINUM 32GB DDR5
SSD: Kingston FURY Renegade 4TB
Gaming Console: PLAYSTATION 5 PRO

Turn 10 was definitely a little arrogant, but their comments weren't that bad. They even praised the GT series.

It doesn't contradict his statement if Sony has more shooters.  Sony has more of EVERYTHING.  They just make more and more varied games. 


Microsoft's actually published more racers, RPGs, sandbox and strategy games than Sony so far this gen.  Sony's published more shooters, platformers, sims, sports, adventure and casual/party games though.



It makes sense to put out games in a particular genre for a system if they're selling large amounts and making a large profit.  I have to wonder about the business sense of Peter Dille for even calling Microsoft on that.  You can even read his comments as a swipe against the PS3 for still being unable to outsell the 360 even though they're taking far more risks (and still making less profit) than the competitor.



Fire Mission, Fire Bullshit for Effect! Thats a Solid copy Sony PR once the Tsunoda Fire mission is complete we will commence with yours, Bullshit out.

The guys from Turn 10 are dicks and they have made some pretty bad comments...

"Which could explain why the GT franchise has been so stagnant in the racing genre since GT3."

“I don’t know if Move is going to bomb, but at this point, nobody gives a shit. Even Sony fans would rather talk about Kinect.”

"It’s an unfortunate time in the world of gaming; one of my favorite developerswas caught with a little bit of red paint on their hands, hence making them red-handed in an outward attempt to fix a recent poll being held on CNET regarding Forza Motorsport 3 and Polyphony Digital’s Gran Turismo 5." Referring to Turn 10 trying to rig a poll.

But Hartman sees GT5 as more of a theory than reality. "I haven't heard a ship date. So I'm really not worried about it until I hear a ship date."

They've said and done alot more stuff, don't act as if one company is innocent over another.

Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.
