Forums - Sony Discussion - Does The PS4 Deserve More Respect?

I've mostly enjoyed mine. It's really rather bland, but that's primarily what people seem to want. The Wii U, meanwhile. Is a very unique experience, but it lacks the kind of games, graphics, and online features you find on the PS4.

I really can't see myself owning just one of them, but owning both is wonderful. :)

I think the thread will be fine... its a dumb thread...

PS4 is already the most praised console and best selling. Its funny that still isn't enough for the OP. The sad thing is many Playstation fans seem to share this sentiment, it seems they don't like any competition. Some people don't even like me calling X1 competition to PS4.


After reading through the thread and seeing your posts, you're acting awfully grumpy about this thread over nothing. If this thread is so dumb, what the hell are you posting in it for over and over again? Buy a punching bag or something and take your bitterness out on it. Save us the grief.    

 

Stage, puggsly, snoopy and vasto all do that to sony threads.


To be fair, stage and vasto don't really do that though. Stage is neutral most of the time and vasto has gotten alot better about it. Just my opinion. 



I don't respect a thing, I use that object to play video games.

I don't think any of the consoles are as respected as they should be.

Such is the internet.


Pretty much this. I think the 3 of them are disrespected a lot.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

/thread. I respect the company and developers not the thing.

Why would you respect something just because of sales? Do you also respect Taylor Swift for selling more records than anyone? I doubt it. Transformers was the highest money maker at the box office last year. Does that make it somehow better? Do you respect it more? To me it's still just a shitty summer popcorn flick.

Also, if the console is the most powerful, why would multiplatform games looking better on it, command respect? Seems like it should just be expected? If this were a real thing, wouldn't PC's be the most unappreciated platform ever? Seems so.

I mean.. just last gen, how much respect did the Wii get? Virtually none. In the end, who cares? If your console has games you enjoy, then what does it matter if others disagree? And if the console gets no respect on the internets (which is a joke.. hell, GAF alone provides enough for the whole Internet), does it really matter when it's leading in sales?

I think you could easily make a case that the other two consoles don't get enough respect.

Nope, Sony played it the safest this gen. Going with all power and taking a wait and see approach. Letting the Bone take the risks and if it fails on one thing, laugh and point fingers. Boring approach, but it has pretty graphics 😍. Entertain us and wow us, boring bitches! I didn't get a PS4 to play 8-bit games and multi-plats with extra lines of resolution. I want Sony to really dominate with a mighty hand and just crush M$ and Nintendo and make their followers cry.

I'm sorry, I spoke without thinking. Please don't punish me, mighty Sony Gods. 😓 I know... Greatness awaits, I will wait.


Didn't Sony announce the PS4 first?

MS made the wrong choice, Sony didn't chance what they were doing but they certainly did capitalise on MS mistakes.

Any rumours that they changed their plans are just that.

And I've pointed this out before, check out the meaning of 'await' before making that same joke. (You're not the first)

I'm not bitter, I just think its silly someone thinks PS4 needs more praise. Hey, look at the responses of other users as well.

I have no idea what it means to respect a console, beyond buying it.



I guess I understand what he's looking for. When Wii was dominating, this site was full of Wii topics. Media was all over it lol, news about it was everywhere. PS4 on the other hand hasn't received anywhere near the same attention. Not exactly sure it deserves it though.
