Hmmm-- can't find that anywhere in this thread is what my point is
Quote: "Should we all refuse to buy PS3's and recommend others do the same because of a mistake made in the description of a game?"
Where did I recommend to others not to buy a PS3? I'm not buying one because there aren't games available for it-- fact. All this BS Sony is pulling behind the scenes is just irritating and shameless, which is why I created this thread in the first place. Do you think everything that's been announced in this thread is just heresay and non-factual, biased, etc.? If they're true, then they're true! Please point me to the articles with which you have linked to which say none of it is true.

Uh, yah, because according to the major game blogs Resistance is the "must-have" title for PS3. Of course I'm going to play it! Can you let me know of any games that are out right now for PS3 that I should try instead? We have over 30,000 games in the library at work that I can open up and play on any console, so I promise you I'll play this 'killer game' that I'm missing out on at lunch on Monday. You just have to let me know which one it is first, okay?
And what does it matter if it's been released world wide? It's going to be the same system in Europe--- you *DO* know that right?
Quote: "Indeed. Doing my own research and not relying on second hand interpretted postings."
Okay *noww* I understand. My sources are second hand interpreted postings, but your sources are legitimately backed up and notarized by Harvard lawyers. Got it.
Quote: "And yet you needed to ask me for details. Odd."
Are you in the right thread? I asked you for details on what exactly the PS3 features are that the 360 doesn't have, and all you said was the graphics are capable of being better. Wow. I didn't ask you to tell me what I already posted in this thread.
And did you read the line where I said the PS3 hardware is not more powerful than the 360 hardware? If not, please do.

I know-- it's the only reason I still have my 3DO kicking around
Quote: "Your sweeping generalization saying the PS3's hardware is not as powerful as the 360 is just seeking arguments."
I guess I'll just have to wait for your arguments, then. I only know what I have read, and I assume you the same. Oblivion was stored *twice* on the Blu-Ray disc because of the drive's slow access times. Care to comment, or are you convinced larger capacity discs = better games?
Quote: "The graphics hardware (which you have already admitted is capable of beating the others)?"
Uh, wha--? Where? Are you referring to when I said "capable maybe"? I said that because it depends on many things, including whether the developers will even use the power. If you want to get in an argument over whether the PS3 can do "better" graphics, then let me know once a pretty game is released on the PS3
Quote: "The built-in optical drive hardware? The hardware inside the controlers? The floating point performance? The networking hardware?"
Alright, since you brought it up, list out how each of those are superior to the 360s with your top secret sources then get back to me.
I am not a fanboy ok? I'm developing on a PSP at work all day, so believe me I couldn't care less about brand name. All I initially created this thread for was to outline shameless Sony tactics that they've been smearing on our faces for decades. Remember that so-called in-game Killzone 2 and Moto Racer footage they showed us at E3? That is what started it for me.
I'm a puzzle and adventure game fanboy, and I like money, so if the PS3 comes out with interesting games that appeal to me and my wallet, I'll gladly pick it up. What I don't understand is how people like yourself can defend a brand until your dying day as if you're defending your own grandmother.
