thats a BIG MISTAKE and im going for a microsoft win

sony are at a catch 22,because ps3 has alot more potential left that ps4 is not needed as much as a new xbox

oldjadedgamer5031d ago

Except Sony isn't going for the "win." In reality there is no such thing as a console war.

Sony might compare the PS3 to the 360, but not until neither are still in production. All the care about is profit.

They don't see PS3 vs. 360, they see Ps3 + PS2 + Psp compared to the years before.

Johnny_Bravo5031d ago

No but fanboys on this site do.

Seferoth755031d ago

Yeah there is no war.... That is why Sony called itself the winner the past two gens? You Sony fans are so funny. Sony is in 3rd so of course they now suddenly don't care about winning..
I guess they still dont care about motion controls either huh kid?

oldjadedgamer5031d ago

Where does Sony say they have won the past two? I don't even own a PS3. I do own logic. Too bad you can't buy that.

cayal5031d ago

The ONLY thing Sony (and Microsoft and Nintendo) care about is money.

That's it.

The only reason they mention sales and winning is because they want people to buy their product.

nikkisixx25031d ago

yeah its a big mistake to take their time and make sure their are little to no flaws.

Johnny_Bravo5031d ago (Edited 5031d ago )

Except for the little flaw where every PS3 in the world (excluding Slims, I had one thank god) was unplayable, even offline?

EDIT: http://www.gamespot.com/ps3...

You can't deny facts

Whats sad is the whole problem that caused millions of players not able to even play their system, was because Sony had their calendar wrong.

@asyouburn - Judging by your edit, you didn't even click the link to see what the article was about.

EDIT2: If you had a Slim PS3 then you where ok, its all the people who had the fat PS3's that had the issue. I for one had a Slim, so it was no problem.....kinda. I tried to play MAG and there was only 300 people online the whole day....which sucked.

asyouburn5031d ago (Edited 5031d ago )

and i ve had ps3 since 06.
EDIT: im not denying anything. ive seriously never had any issue where i could not play games. you can pull whatever article you want, but its true
i read quickly. and seriously,look at my trophy list. i'll bet i even have trophies awarded on the days that this happened. im not saying it didnt happen, just not to me. PSN adam138

nikkisixx25031d ago

@ Johnny

OH NO!!! we couldnt play on our PS3's for a couple hours!!! the world is going to end!!!

HolyOrangeCows5031d ago (Edited 5031d ago )

Better than when Live didn't work properly for over a week.
http://www.engadget.com/200...
That was a fun Christmas. Lots of new games, live gold recently renewed, aaaaaaand....nothing. They sure put those millions of our $50 to good use.

And a lot devices had an issue turning over to the new millennium. Let me guess, "DOOOOOOMED"?
Most of those issues were resolved and we got on with our 21st century lives.

Johnny_Bravo5031d ago

Ahh yes, but we could still play our games offline, any game we wished. That day on PS3 you couldn't, except for a few games that where really old. PSN also has maintenance all the time of the course of 2-4 hours, when was the last time Xbox was down for maintenance?

nikkisixx25031d ago

all the time? wtf? you obviously dont own or use your ps3 much because my gaming is never effected by 'maintenance'

Snakefist305031d ago (Edited 5031d ago )

"I tried to play MAG and there was only 300 people online the whole day....which sucked."

Dude Mag plays 256 players online not 300 players.U completly blown ur coment by making tat up so it's full of lies and my ps3 also never effected by maintence.

And abut Mag,MAG is not for 12 or 13yr old gamers like COD MW wer u run and kill like an idiot,mag is abut teamwork and help eachother.If u dont like it so go play somthing else.

BTW My PSN ID is Jokerkid20

SilentNegotiator5031d ago (Edited 5031d ago )

"every PS3 in the world (excluding Slims, I had one thank god) was unplayable"

BullCRAP. My phat worked fine. I played Red Faction Guerrilla all that day.

Darkshader5030d ago (Edited 5030d ago )

I have my PS3 on launched day. Yes i experience that error you've mentioned but it was only down like not even a day. And SONY was able to fix it by a patch i believe.

I went to work that morning and when i get home maybe around 8pm SONY was able to fix it. So you are trying to make this a big deal when the RROD made XBOX 360 console unplayabe for several weeks? pathetic!

PS2 released after the Dreamcast.
Am I forgetting wrong, or didn't Ps2 outsell the Dreamcast? :)

I'm afraid it's a BIT more complicated than JUST release dates.

ivant5031d ago (Edited 5031d ago )

Absolutely true

The xbox 360 has done well with the year head-start with no competition, plus the gaming experience it has delievered

The xbox360 would have even done better had the had no RROD and other h/w quality issues.

Microsoft won't make that mistake again. The new slim 360 shows how they can improve their h/w if they put their mind to it. Plus the new xbox will likely have a proper motion controller + kinect + Bluray

It will be stupid for Sony to release after, unless the gaming market is firmly divided in the Nin, PS, X fanboys.....enabling all three companies to make money by focus on their respective user base.

An ultra slim PS Revolution( an improved Ps3) at $250 with at least twice the Ram, improved CPU & GPU ( nothing radically new), motion controller standard, improved Game OS could be released at the same time as the new Wii & xbox, and would seriously pawn the competion.

Shoko5031d ago

It makes sense for the PS4 to come out after the next Xbox and Wii, because the PS3 has more stamina this gen than the 360 and Wii. Nintendo and Microsoft will have to make new consoles since their consoles are kinda maxed out. Yea, Nintendo can improve the Wii's online, but they might as well work on online for the next console, it's too late now. The PS3 on the other hand STILL hasn't been maxed out and has thousands (exaggeration) of features. (Im not a PS3 fanboy, just stating facts)

Now, I also disagree because Sony has seen the affect of releasing a system after the competition releases theirs. I don't think they want to be beat by Microsoft a 2nd time (Sales-wise). So they just might release the PS4 with the next Xbox. Also, I remember Microsoft saying that the 360 will last one day more than the PS3 (lol, btw), but I doubt it. But who knows, we'll see.

claterz5031d ago

I don't think it's a bad thing that playstation consoles launch after the competitors. Imagine how many things were added to the PS3 in the last year of development, I'd rather Sony take time to develop the PS4, because we've all seen what happens when companies rush a console to market just to get one up over the competition. The PS3 overall is the most future proof console anyway, so while this gen comes to an end, the only console worth playing will be the PS3, while other console owners will be praying for the next gen systems to come out.

Styile5031d ago

Lol is this the real shokio? ^

wissam5031d ago

Sony themselves said this few days ago.

Spenok5031d ago

Lol, how would you get a disagree to this? Its mearly fact. Lol some people baffle me.

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

ChasterMies13h ago

Some of these low paid video game “news” writers weren’t born before 2007.

just_looken8h ago

Here here

Those that were around before 2000's i am sure are like me that think we entered a world of non readers or those that follow without question.

I can not wait to see fallout 3 a goty game even though it was about water with non content until you add the dlc/updates then you got the performance/crashing

CrimsonWing691d ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker1d ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo1d ago (Edited 1d ago )

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing691d ago (Edited 1d ago )

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos20h ago(Edited 20h ago)

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

Gameseeker_Frampt12h ago

Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.

2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.

just_looken8h ago

It still amazes me we got over 7 rockstar games ps2/ps3 but 3 for the ps3/ps4/ps5

Dragon age 1-3 and mass effect 1-3 in 7ish years what a generation.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos1d 6h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto1d 5h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger881d 5h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

ChasterMies19h ago

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
