no ?

Condemned is not meh!

Agreed otherwise, though. Sega is giving Sony much better support.

Nice one man.

PS2 sold over 120 mil consoles. With all the anti-sony stuff going around nowadays, I have to ask myself exactly who were the 120 mil people who bought this console. Sounds like many of our dear "haters" must have purchased the console as well because I only bought 2. Maybe they just like to hate the company at the bottom or just want to be "where it's at". Talk about flip-flopping.

In my case, I'd remain pro-sony till the PS brand ceases to exist simply because I never really considered gaming a hobby till the brand came into existence. I'd never have bought an xbox or any other console I'd buy in the future if ps1 never existed. Thats all there is to it.

Now that I've mentioned that I'm pro-sony, I should also mention that I'm not anti-any other company...just indifferent. This is what differentiates me from most of the purported "haters".

This really sums up everything beautifully.

I think the arrogance of Sony and its most extreme rabid supporters is the reason why people just enjoy seeing Sony fall under its own weight because of their poorly thought out business decisions.

Honestly, I would like to see Sony continue to make contributions to the gaming industry (competition is always good for the consumer), but it is slightly satisfying to see Sony and its most delusional supporters squirm.

In loving memory of the Sega Dreamcast...smile*

I believe these people I'm talking about need to affirm themselves of their decision every time they speak about it and sadly the only way they seem to be able to do so is by throwing as much mud at the competition as they can.

@ Valkyria00 )

that was pretty offending to me as a PS3 user, why do generalize that much?

The quote that you have bolded has a lot of truth to it though.  And it's not necessarily a negative thing unless they're jerks about it.  It's ok to vehemently defend your console of choice for its real merits.  For movie watching, the PS3 was a no brainer for a long time because it was the cheapest BluRay player out there (and is probably still the NICEST one out there for the price.)  It's also a great gaming machine and has free (yet still a bit sub-par) online access. 

On the other hand, I have never seen fanboys as delusional as PS3 fanboys.  They talk as if the PS3 has been in first place for this entire generation.  They'll take one little number, spin it into something it doesn't actually mean, and then use it to justify the myriad of predicted PS3 comeback dates.  (Beginning/middle of the year people usually claim it will be in the summer of that year.  Middle/End of the year people usually claim it will be the holiday season.)

In other words, people think the PS3 is going to automatically make some miraculous comeback solely based on the fact that it's a Sony console and Sony held all the power the last two generations.  The "batshit insane" ones just assume this is going to happen and act like it already HAS happened.  I think that's ludicrous.  If someone says "I love the PS3 because (fill in the blank with a cool feature), that's one thing.  You can actually discuss that.  You can weigh the pros and cons.  You can compare and contrast the three consoles based on that statement.  When somebody just flat out says "PS3 FTW, xbox 360 sucks, year of the PS3, blah blah blah!!!!!!", it just makes me think they're idiots, and in fact, "batshit insane". And when they really get backed into a corner, they just start making giant lists of software that's coming out for the PS3, a lot of it is usually completely made up or based on really weak speculation and rumor.  Once I see a list of software in a post, I generally just stop reading it.   

Do 360 owners do this too?  Oh yes.  Absolutely.  And if the 360 was in third place right now, they'd probably be acting just as insane as the PS3 fanboys are.  But I think 360 owners are content knowing their console has a solid foothold and does not have the shaky future that the PS3 seems to have right now.  The PS3 "dying" first is not that far fetched.  After all, PS1 and PS2 had a huge hand in killing off several competing consoles.  Sony is not immune to this just because they've caused it in the past.

So 360 fanboys are exactly the same but somehow ps3 fanboys are the worst? Nice way of contradicting yourself.

And way to fit the stereo type.  You're twisting my words around to make it sound like something I didn't say.  I said the 360 fanboys aren't AS BAD because their console is not in dead last and that they probably would be just as bad if that were the case.

I'm upset with sony because I had to rebuy 3 ps2s that were broken with disc read errors and sony gave me no warranty. I swore that day i would NEVER buy a sony product again. At least MS has a 3 year warranty with the 360.

The ps3 was way overpriced and they expected people to buy it. No thanks ken kuritagi. Keep your george foreman grill paperweight system. Bribing disney , fox and WB to support blu-ray didnt help matters either. The arrogance sony has shown this generation is enough to make anybody hate them. Which is why you see the playstation brand declining across the board.

You're funny because you're still saying the same thing. Basically, if 360 was dead last, its fans would behave exactly how you think ps3 fans behave. Hence 360 fans = ps3 fans.

What stereotype am I fitting, You're making a meaningless statement and I'm calling BS on it simple as that. Ps3 gets a lot of heat because of sony's failure this gen and it's only it's real fans left to defend it. Thats why we spend so much time in it's defense.
