Forums - Sony - My friend sold his ps3

People believe what they want to believe. It really shouldnt matter if he sold it or not. Why we even have this thread to discuss someone selling a system in the first is questionable. To sell or keep a system is each person rights either it be through outside sources or inside that made him decide is still ultimately his choice. Judging him on the fact he sold his system from news and word of mouth is the same thing as judging someone on buying a system base on news and word of mouth.

I think he was influenced by his friends as well..they all have 360's (huge fanboys ) and his brother hates the ps3 to hell, I think they made him sell it or something..

Systems generate a buzz about them. If the PS3 has generated a buzz of being a flop, then he would feel that and feel the need to dump it as soon as possible. Sega faced this with the Saturn and then the Dreamcast.  Maybe he feels he only needs one system, so thus, the PS3 is out.

Any hobbyist gamer should keep systems they like, if the have games.  I have personally bought systems on the way out, to get games for them that were unique and worth owning.  It is why I bought an N64 on its last days, and even have an N-Gage for Sega's Pocket Kingdom.



selling a console is the stupidest thing i've ever heard. why not just keep it? why are people ashamed in owning a certain console. it can't be about the money, i refuse to believe it



The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is the best Zelda title ever made.

Oh take comfort, there is absolutely zero , nada zip chance that anyone and I mean anyone could F*ck up things worse than the last one.

With the possible exception of anyone who would sell a system they liked based on the gaming press.

Again its perception basically dont try to put that person in your shoes instead put yourself in that person shoes and try to think of reason why they would sell instead of why you yourself wont sell.

He had a 360 since gears of war launched, and yes I know he loves his ps3 because he plays(ed) with me every single day, and said that he wanted the ps3 to do well because its such a good system.

He sold it because its not doing well, I think its stupid of him, he blantly tells me this on msn and then signs off.

You gusy really need to get out more!

 

WHAT?  That would make them Wii owners!

 



I have a friend who sold his Wii because he kept reading about the weak holiday line-up.
