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

oldjadedgamer5030d 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_Bravo5030d ago

No but fanboys on this site do.

Seferoth755030d 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?

oldjadedgamer5030d 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.

cayal5029d 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.

nikkisixx25030d ago

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

Johnny_Bravo5030d ago (Edited 5030d 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.

asyouburn5030d ago (Edited 5030d 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

nikkisixx25030d ago

@ Johnny

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

HolyOrangeCows5030d ago (Edited 5030d ago )

Better than when Live didn't work properly for over a week.

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_Bravo5030d 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?

nikkisixx25030d ago

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

Snakefist305030d ago (Edited 5030d 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

SilentNegotiator5029d ago (Edited 5029d 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.

Darkshader5029d ago (Edited 5029d 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.

ivant5030d ago (Edited 5030d 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.

Shoko5030d 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.

claterz5030d 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.

Styile5030d ago

Lol is this the real shokio? ^

wissam5030d ago

Sony themselves said this few days ago.

Spenok5030d ago

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

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis11h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast10h ago

It's worth a play through today.

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.

jznrpg1d 6h ago

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv721d 6h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast1d 7h ago

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

LucasRuinedChildhood1d 7h ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK1d 4h ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

anast10h ago

The game went downhill at Fallout 3's release. This is when they started to cut corners.

gold_drake1d 3h ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.

anast10h ago

Usually, you have good comments but this isn't one of them. It just rides the mob. We can do both condemn the actions and not let them use it for other things.

I can say I received a death threat and everyone needs to shut up. People are not honest and will use horrible things to their advantage.

Armaggedon22h ago

Not all games “look” current.

anast10h ago

Their games always look like the gen before it.

Armaggedon59m ago

Yeah, but thats not the result of laziness, incompetence, or a bad engine. Thats what happens with their type of open world games. Its hard for people to find a point of comparison because no one makes games like Bethesda does.

gold_drake3h ago

mh ok thanks, i still think ur wrong in this mate.

anast2h ago

No problem. I'm not here to convince you. I'm only stating an actuality. What your words do if we look at them like events.
