It's a great milestone for Sony...but I'm not exactly jumping for joy. 

This thread is a bit crass to me. 

How so?


because there will always be pessimistic people :P

You know... it's a Shame the "Castle Vidcon" comics stopped.  It would of been fun to see how the PS3 and 360's general rise would of been portrayed in that setting.

I wonder if the 360 and Ps3's general rise, was WHY castle vidcon stopped updating though...

don't know because I'm not a "Something Awful" type person so I can't talk about it's various members.



Im surprised the guy didnt call the thread "CGI Qualitys Playstation 3 50 million Sold celebration thread"

Guess so, or maybe he doesn't like the stipulations.

Curse me for wanting a completely peaceful topic!

It is exremely obnoxius to try and limit conduct to only positiveness in threads.

I always lose a little respect for people when they do attempt it.  It always just feels like people can't accept anything negative that might even be the truth and would rather live in a fake world and not look at things objectivly.

No offense, but I do usually take it as a main idnicator of unhealthy bias.

I like to keep celeberations for my own achievements or those of loved ones, and Sony is neither. 

As I enjoy my ps3 I am certaintly glad but I won't be celebrating anything.

For All News/Info related to the PlayStation Vita, Come and join us in the Official PSV Thread!

PlayStation 3 is the console that finally has replaced the Sega Saturn as my favorite of all time. And this says a lot! Kinda funny how both PS3 and Saturn went strong in Japan but not in North America. Hopefully though PS3 is much stronger overall.

Congrats Sony, I hope PS3 keeps pushing towards 100M .



I remember back in 2006 the day before the PS3 would come out  a friend and I decided to camp in front of Walmarts to make sure we got one each (yeah in order to sell them on ebay). Camping on October-November isn't such a great idea in Canada since it's cold already. The girlfriend I had at that time wanted to come with us so we brought her. All Montreal's Walmarts already had campers in fron of the stores and it was only 4 in the after noon so we decided to change city. We went 150km farther to find 1 spot.

My friend and I were depressed so I had the great idea to leave my girlfriend camping alone with the other people in that city (not such a great idea that was... I still hear about it even if we're not together anymore). We went all around the province of Quebec to our despair traveling more that 700km from town to town to being dissapointed everytime... there were campers all over the province. We even encountered other people looking for places but to no success. We ended up in a strip club in a city called Drummondville (what a dirty place that strip club was) and my frien almost had a fight with some fellas over a dance he kind of stole from a stripper, anyway. We continued the search taking pictures here and there of people camping.

In the end we went back to the city my girlfriend was (she was so pissed alone in the cold with gamers all around) we found a convenience store that was still selling alcohol at 4 in the morning (after eleven it's illegal to sell alcohol) after we told our story to the guy... he laughed hard I'm telling you.

Then came the morning, we were the firsts to enter, we got 1 PS3 which was mine (technically it was my girlfriend's) (the other campers got theirs). It was expansive as hell: $699 tx = $781. I tried to sell it on ebay the same day and failed. I ended up selling it for $900 3 weeks later... I was shocked and thought that this would never sell. I sincerely believed that the PS3 would die 1-2 years after it's release.

Now we're almost 5 years later and it's still going. Geat job Sony, congrats.



Congrats to Sony and Playstation. Now keep going!

I have been without my amazing NHL 11 online experience for some time now.  But I'm not complaining.  I've had two customers call me at work asking about trading in their PS3 becuse they were sick of waiting...

I don't get it!

I love MY PS3.  Day ONE purchase and I have fixed it myself when it came down with the YLOD! I will never let go Jack, I mean PS3.  I will wait as long as I have to.

I'd like to give a shout out to my Blu-Ray movies, whatup!

Sorry, my PS3 pics are NSFW...
