let me guess...you went along with 'ps3 haz no gamez' for longer than it actually didnt have games?
I went PS2 > PSP > PS3 > vita
Next on the list will be PS4.
ive played the other systems but nothing really wow'd me enough to buy one....plus my trophies would be fragmented into achievements and whatever the nintendo equivalent is.


 

If only Nintendo gamers had the joy of collecting trophies for all of their games....which I just found out they dont.

But they all seem pretty excited about Super Smash Bros getting them.


So you've moved the argument from "my achievements/trophies would not be in the same place" (to which the "first world problems" picture was about) to an attempt to throw an insult out there to people who do not care?

I know what you're trying to do, and I find it  a lot more hilarious than anything else you're remotely trying to make it out to be.....still, that's what keeps me on here, seeing people get so uppity about trivial things..


Why would you give me a lecture about insults after posting that pic?

You're kidding me, right. You really got THAT insulted over the pic? Well I guess it was enough to post an tempted snide remark that did absolutely nothing.

Normally in situations like this, it would call for an apology, but for sometihng this trivial, I'm afraid I only feel pity for you.

May I suggest that you try not to lose any sleep over it. I most certainly wont...

It wasn't insulting, it was fun to watch one's devotion to hunks of plastic and electronics reach points where jabs at them become personal insults to the person, and given the agressiveness of your reply after the pic, I can tell you tried so hard to insult my piece of plastic and electronic in an attempt to rile some kind of hostility back, when in fact, I'm just taking amusement in your reaction. Please, feel free to continue.....



TLOU and free online made me switch from 360 to PS3.

I can assure you that as much as you think I considered your feelings, the point was always that I couldnt obtain trophies on nintendo systems

sorry to disappoint you.

and if you were so amused, what did you want an apology for? at this point im starting to expect a 'thank you' from you.

Oh I see, you msread that. By that I meant it's normally customary to apologise to the one who was insulted. In this case, it was you being insulted over that pic. You have it the other way around...

BOLDED: No, the original point was, as you can see from your first post, that all your precious memory values otherwise known as trophies/achievements would no longer be in a central location. Classic first world problem if ever I saw one...

tbh anything on this site would be classified as a first world problem, especially your replies.

and if nintendo did have trophies, I would consider making the centralised location nintendo over sony, ofcourse this is not an option since they do not offer the service or the third party games.



I switched from Sony to Nintendo after the PS2, mostly because of motion controlls on the Wii and Pokemon on DS. I've stayed there since, as I find their games superior.

I still play a few games on other systems, but I just find myself returning to Nintendo so I'm currently unsure if I'll invest in another next gen system.



My first console was a Sega megadrive I remember playing it for a year or so ( I was quite young so can't remember) then I remember my parents buying me a PS1 with tekken 3 and Spyro 2. I'll never forget sprinting home everyday after school to play my PS1 :P after that I started getting into Final Fantasy and other RPG's once the PS2 launched I remember seeing FF10, being the RPG fan I was I NEEDED to play that game :P so parents brought me a PS2 and FF10. By the time the PS3 was out I was old enough to buy my own consoles, I was actually going to buy a 360 but the fact that FF 13 versus was meant to be a PS3 exclusive made me not jump ship lol

Fast forward 6 years and FF 13 versus still isn't out and now its a PS4 game with a different name lol, oh well staying on the PS3 made me discover some amazing titles I would have other wise never played.

I also grew up playing GB with pokemon and Donkey kong but once I hit 13-14 It became the "uncool" thing to do so I ditched playing handhelds up until I hit 18 when I ended up getting a psp for FF CC then found love for handhelds again buying a DS aswell.
