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

oldjadedgamer5024d 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_Bravo5024d ago

No but fanboys on this site do.

Seferoth755024d 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?

oldjadedgamer5024d 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.

cayal5024d 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.

nikkisixx25024d ago

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

Johnny_Bravo5024d ago (Edited 5024d 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.

asyouburn5024d ago (Edited 5024d 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

nikkisixx25024d ago

@ Johnny

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

HolyOrangeCows5024d ago (Edited 5024d 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_Bravo5024d 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?

nikkisixx25024d ago

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

Snakefist305024d ago (Edited 5024d 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

SilentNegotiator5024d ago (Edited 5024d 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.

Darkshader5023d ago (Edited 5023d 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.

ivant5024d ago (Edited 5024d 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.

Shoko5024d 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.

claterz5024d 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.

Styile5024d ago

Lol is this the real shokio? ^

wissam5024d ago

Sony themselves said this few days ago.

andy851d 23h ago

And people say it's all fake because Sony haven't said anything 😂 conveniently forget the PS4 Pro was only announced 2 months before release.

BeHunted1d 23h ago

It's fake. There's no factual evidence other than his own made up specs.

Hereandthere1d 23h ago

What were the specks Sony was afraid of showing?

Shikoku1d 22h ago (Edited 1d 22h ago )

Digital foundry put a video out saying what he leaked was exactly what they also knew about the PS5 PRO. So no it's not just stuff he made up

Babadook71d 19h ago (Edited 1d 19h ago )

If it’s fake what copyright does MLID infringe upon?

😂

andy851d 19h ago

Aye because they'd go to the effort of copyright claiming it if it didn't exist 🙃😂 you'd have to be a special kind to be thinking its not a thing by now

Cacabunga1d 18h ago

They need to reveal it with uncharted killzone or a heavy hitter like this

Ironmike1d 18h ago (Edited 1d 18h ago )

U mean the specs that we'll established digital foundry which said these are the actual specs published a video on 2 weeks ago I mean they are only one of most trusted sites for tech information but they just made up a video for the sake of it

Christopher1d 5h ago

I would love for it all to be fake, but lots of people are saying they've seen/heard the same thing. But, man, we 100% don't need mid-gen upgrades when we're failing hard to optimize current hardware.

Seraphim1d ago (Edited 1d ago )

if I recall Sony lowered sales expectations for PS5 earlier this year. if that is the case we won't hear anything about a Pro until next year or shortly before/when it's dropping. After all, if the Pro was dropping this year/fiscal year they wouldn't have lowered expectations.

As for squashing rumors. Yeah, shit like this prevents potential buyers from adopting now, just like slim rumors in the past. It only makes sense to keep things under wraps from a business perspective. Despite living in a technological age of unfettered access to information we don't need to know whats going on behind closed doors be that at Sony, Nintendo, MS, or amongst any development studios. When the steak is done we shall feast.

JackBNimble23h ago

By the time games are actually made to take advantage of the pro spec's the ps6 will be released or close to it.

jznrpg1d 22h ago (Edited 1d 22h ago )

Just announce it already! I want to preorder one asap. But in reality they don’t want to lessen PS5 sales until Pro is ready to launch so I understand the business part of it. September is probably when they announce it with an early November launch like the PS4 Pro

Ironmike1d 18h ago

Pro won't lessen sales sames ps4 pro never and the ps4 pro was more relevant at the time cos move to 4k this not needed

RaidenBlack1d 12h ago (Edited 1d 12h ago )

Yea, my brother got his PS4 (coz of a good deal) after the PS4 Pro's release.

darthv721d 8h ago

^^same here. I got a base 4 for only $100 off a guy who bought the Pro. then a few months later I found a guy on craigslist selling a pro for $100 because it was left behind by his former roommate who moved out. That was the beginning of my obsession to buy up the different variants of the PS4 that were released.

As of now I am really only missing the 500m one and the gold slim but otherwise I have pretty much all the other retail ones. https://consolevariations.c...

BoneMagnus1d 7h ago

@darth - Nice collection!

crazyCoconuts1d 1h ago

Anyone with 4K that appreciates 60fps is gonna disagree about it not being needed.

DeadlyFire1d 7h ago

They will announce it around E3 timeframe about May-June whenever they do a showcase for the year.

neutralgamer19921d 22h ago

Just announce it this thing will sell well

Ironmike1d 18h ago (Edited 1d 18h ago )

I don't think it will pll still haven't seen the potential of ps5 yet

Cacabunga1d 5h ago

agreed, but it might sell if they announce some 1st party games to lead the way. if people see the difference with the base version they can move on. for my sake I am still gaming mainly on PS4 (still not finished with RDR2 due to lack of gaming time). I have a huge backlog on PS5 I am hoping to get into.

mark3214uk1d 14h ago

why? game makers havnt even come close to maxing out current spec yet, were getting al lthese new TFlops and game maker are making crappy remakes not worthy of the ps3

Minute Man 7211d 9h ago

The guts of the 5 and X are 5 years old

fr0sty1d 2h ago

People keep saying that, yet we still have games running at near HD resolutions, 30fps, and ray tracing features turned off.

PRIMORDUS1d 19h ago (Edited 1d 19h ago )

I would take that video and upload a torrent of it, fuck that copyright bullshit. If your going to do something that has a chance of being taken down, make a torrent first share it. Then Sony or any other company is helpless and you can laugh in their faces, taunting them to try to take it down 🤣

LoveSpuds1d 12h ago

With kind of analysis and advice, you could be a lawyer for Trump!🤣

tronyx121d 12h ago

As much as the PS4 Pro didn't represent a major % in the playerbase, announcing a 'better' model will hinder sales from the 'base' model. They are right, business-wise.

Tales Of Graces Ƒ Retro Review – Holding Out For a Hero

Gary Green said: Namco Bandai heard the call of many fans asking for the PlayStation release of Tales of Graces which was originally released seemingly exclusively for the Wii back in 2009. If you’re acquainted with the Tales series then Graces f won’t be something entirely new to you, yet if you’re a newcomer then you’ll find a plethora of gameplay mechanics and nuances that distinguish this series from other JRPGs. While the game finds itself following the traditional archetype of JRPGs, such as a somewhat clichéd story, Graces has something to offer to both veterans and newcomers alike.
