Yes, it's still has a quite good support.
God bless You.
My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+
When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019

no, the ps3 is dead since 1 1/2 years. no games, no support. no sales. not even a single word about ps3
Considering what day it is, yes they have. The PS3 has had a good long life, despite it's controversial launch price.

-Achievements -One year exclusivity with Netflix -charging for online play -external HDD support for 360 and One -App snapping -ability to install every 360 game for better performance -IR blaster to control other home devices -Cortana support -AA batteries in their controller Boy, that Microsoft couldn't wipe their own asses if Sony didn't show them how! /Sarcasm. I could point out several featuress that Sony has copied from M$ and Nintendo just as easily as I could point out several things that M$ had copied from Nintendo and Sony (and summer things I WISH they WOULD copy!). And I could do the same for Nintendo. And I could point out several things that are totally unique amongst all three companies. A lot of things all companies do are in response to their fans and market demand. |
AA batteries are supposed to be a good thing?

Yes, eneloops exist and are just awesome in comparison to battery units that are not meant for exchange and that don't last as long.

Not at all--even though one of my old PS3 controllers refuses to hold a charge (though, admittedly none of my Xbox 360/Wii charge and play kits still work--i use Energizer rechargeables, now). I was just pointing out things that they did differently or first since, according to the post I quoted, everything M$ does is a direct response to Sony.

Said in an interview one time that the 360 has a lifespan into 2015 thanks to Natal (Kinect), nothing regarding Sony whatsoever.
You do realize Nintendo supported more than one platform for a decade well before Sony ever did, yes? Wouldn't that make it a Nintendo strategy that Microsoft is supposedly copying? Also, what about the PS Vita? How can it be some grand Sony strategy if it only applies to certain platforms? The Vita proves that this idea of 10 year cycles that you have is crap. To put it simply, Sony is still supporting the PS3 because there is money in it. If there weren't money in it, they'd have moved on. Again, like the Vita. There was money to be made with the 360 a decade into its life, so MS supported it. Hell, according to the criteria in this thread, they still support the 360 eleven years after release. Why? There's money to be made. With the Xbox, they were losing money, so it was different. Again, like the Vita. If there were no money to be made on the PS3, they'd have moved on. Like they did with the Vita :)
As for the topic, whether they support it or not depends on your definition of support. Have they released anything other than MLB, a yearly sports game? I honestly don't know, I ran away from the PS3 OS as fast as I could once the new consoles came out. That and putting games on sale is enough for some, probably not for others. I think both Sony and MS are doing a fine job of still keeping gamers on their old platform engaged, with sales, a game every now and again, and "free" games on PS+/XBLG. Nintendo did have the Nintendo Selects push this year but other than that have not done much.
I believe the NES had a great extended support as well, mainly the Famicom actually, but PS3 is having more support than Ps2 had.

No. You said that "Sony are not actively supporting it" even though they've released numerous big games for it after the launch of PS4 and still release their MLB games for it. If you had said that "the main support comes from 3rd party" I wouldn't raise a single one of my two fat eyebrows. Because honestly walsufnir, my good man, what 10 year old console has ever gotten the majority of its new games from its manufacturer 3 years after the launch of its successor? |
Good question.

Forza is an annual sports game, have it launched for X360 this year?
