Whatever makes you happy, dude.  Games like Halo, Fallout 3, Uncharted, and Mass Effect changed nothing, huh?  OK, man.  Hope you feel better soon.  I intend to keep enjoying games, however.  :D

They didn't. Hence the qualifier.

I'm attempting to rule out the possibility that Platinum would be to blame if Bayonetta 2 is "toned down". Any resulting fallout should be directed at Nintendo. And if/when that happens, I have so many nasty trollish things to say to people clamoring for "mature content". Right now a part of me is laughing very hard.

Whoa, Sony. WHOA! That's some haterade right der!

Wow, the amount of butthurt in this thread is incredible. Especially considering this is obviously fan made. As if Sony could call Mario by name and not get in trouble for it. They would have said "Plumber Boy" or "Mustache Man." If a fake ad can get the fans of opposing companies so riled up, I can't wait to see what the actual announcement does. I smell fear.

They better show something mindblowing. Why? No matter what Sony shows, fans will make it like something mindblowing. They could show a turd with pencils in it and the internet will go nuts over this anyway. It doesn't matter which games are shown or teased, the internet will go crazy. Look at the games Sony released last year. Some guys here said PSABR will be such a great game and even predicted sales in the 4-5 million region. Look how people got crazy for The Last Guardian in... I guess it was 2009. It actually won E3 awards for best game of the show (which tells you something about those awards as well). Look how people praised the NGP, which became the Vita. 3DS was basically doomed for months. I expect a few teasers and trailers and the internet will be like 'Sony has the best 1st party lineup of all times!'. In reality, it is freaking hard to work with Sony as a studio these days. Vita was praised because people believed the price was good and because people believe games were coming. The hardware is obviously awesome, that's what people saw at the time. Then Nintendo dropped the price of 3DS by 30%... I give this post overall 2/10 Last line = wat? You appear to be breeding a lot of hate. Let it flow through you. Honestly, I think he's just upset MS isn't getting nearly as much hype as Sony for their next console.  Sony is getting hype not just from diehard fans, but the average gamer, as well.  I got a couple of guys from work who gamed on nothing but the 360 this gen, but said they are jumping ship if the Kinect 2 rumors turn out to be true.  They also don't want to pay for LIve, anymore.  Read similar things from posts on gaming websites, including this one, too.  It's kinda like MS is getting anti-hype, except from diehard fans, from their leaks.  Next gen is going to be interesting.

I lol'd.

Sonys hype is internet-exclusive. Just like the hype for the Vita was and the hype for every Sony published game in 2012.
99.8% of the video game market don't even know about the PS4 reveal.

And for what exactly should MS get this hype for? They haven't said anything.

Sony's hype is internet exclusive? Is that why they are inviting ton of press to this release? Gaming sites alone wont fill up the venue. This will be reported on news channels just like the Wii U was. Also, I'm pretty sure you made up the statistic. You expect only 150k Ps3 owners to know about the Ps4 reveal... considering I expect major of current gen system owners to have access to the internet on a daily basis the majority will know about it plus people who don't own the systems. When someone makes up statistics you know it's damage control at it's best.

=D

look at Sony 1st party games with exception of GoW and GT everything is short living success, even broken ports like Skyrim sells better than almost anything Sony throw on market.

sales performance of CoD on Vita is excellent illustration of their mindset, they buy anything what is cool regardless of the quality, kill them 3rd party support and the entire PlayStation became failure of colossal proportion almost overnight.

Neither has Sony. 

I really don't think you know what you are talking about lol... Sony didn't buy CoD (if they bought it at all) knowing the quality it would end up with. Just stop talking. You are making yourself look bad.
