Samus was so hot in Other M.

How hot? Teenage hot.

Yeah and I'll bet you nobody would give a damn about it if it was running PSX graphics, sad reality of today's gamers when it comes to anything shooting. :P

Why I stayed with Nintendo? Mario!

Nintendo is my favorite gaming company. I play many more of their games then I do Sony's. The do things that are absolutely atrocious (hardware and online wise) but their games interest me much more than any one else.

I bought a PS3 this gen, and tried all of Sony's new IPs. Uncharted 2 was fun once, but overall it was superficial, and I don't feel any desire to play another entry. LBP was fun because everyone was creating levels for a while, but the next installments didn't catch my interest at all. I don't like racing games, and GOW is not my cup of tee. The only IP from Sony that I really liked this gen was Infamous. I loved both of those games.

Sony is great, I love their online commitment, impressive hardware, and their ability to try new IP's, but Nintendo games are just a lot more fun for me. Nothing wrong with having the opposite opinion.

As far as I remember the PSX had FFVIII (Gunblade! ;o), MGS, 3 MMX games, a few Resis, all with depth as well as gameplay :) Gamers were okay with them. Of course games where story/world is involved benefit from technological advancements to better present the characters, worlds, environments, but that's with any genre that attempts to captivate in an imaginary world with visuals and story.

I'm pretty sure you would have enjoyed Metroid Prime and Mario Galaxy less with PSX graphics too!

Who cares? You're comparing two horribly shallow games. As the saying goes, "It's Like The Special Olympics, You Can Win But You're Still Retarded.". Now lets compare some real games eg. GT series Vs Mario karts? Team Ico Vs Zelda? Metroid Vs Killzone? DMC series Vs ???? Every mulitplatform-game-this-gen vs all-those-games-that-didn't-platform-over etc etc etc etc etc..........

I rest my case.

OT: On one hand, it's so good to see many 2013 users, thank the new generation the site really needed some activity. However, even though he switched, Rol has disappointed me, how could've he considered to a Sony fan/supporter. It saddens me, I mean I own a PS3, but it's been relegated as a dust collector (and boy!, it's a good one, it really does everything!), but that's it, no love for the SW, nor the company.

Fortunately you don't have to play Sony games to get enjoyment out of a Sony console.

I hated FF8(draw was the biggest piece of shit design ever, story was also corny as fuck), I still think MGS is the best MGS game though, Megaman also hasn't been that good since the PSX days TBH, the best ones are still on the original Nintendo since 2D platformers depend much less on graphics. Tells you that we really haven't come that far though, it's pretty sad. I still have The Last of Us and Beyond 2 Souls to look forward to though!

For me its the opposite, I am 40 years old and I don't want cutesy kiddy graphics and games. Nintendo have failed to grow up in terms of offering something different for the mature gamer. Nintendo also fail to do anything from the norm, its the same old tired genres and games, how many times can you release a Mario Kart or Platform game.... they fail to deliver new experiences while imho Sony continue to push the boundaries of new ip and different games.

But then its all a matter of opinion, but your initial argument is a bit weak to be honest....
