I hate to say it, but PS3 is going down... - GoFuckYourself.com

supermann · 08-18-2005, 05:53 PM

There has been a few threads about the new consoles, so I thought I'd make another one. XBOX360 is getting out 5 months before PS3, and 100$ cheaper. By the time the ps3 is out, and the fact that XBOX will want to make more competition, its probably going to go another 50 or 100$ cheaper, making it 200 vs400$, not to mention most people will only buy one console, and the xbox is cheaper and getting out almost half a year sooner. I think SONY will lose big time to xbox this time, as far as money goes. Maybe the games will be better on ps3, but the average guy wont wait that long to pay twice the price. This is my logic, but I know its still too soon.

BlueWire · 08-18-2005, 06:06 PM

Sony PS has loyal fans....I can't believe there are people out there that think XBOX won the last console battle

PS2 sold 5x as many consoles had a huge game library worldwide in comparison. Nobody can argue that the XBOX had slightly better graphics....but a lack of some key games and one of the world controllers ever just was too much to overcome.

It will be interesting with this new war. Its a bit of a role reversal...

XBOX has first mover advantage....and this time sony will be the 2nd to come out but with more powerful hardware. I just tend to think that those that owned a PS2 instead of XBOX (which is TON) ...will just be like..."new xbox...cool but when does ps3 come out).

The only thing that can mess it up for Sony in my opinion is if their system is not superior to xbox....then xbox's first mover advantage will blow them out of the water.

Microsoft did a great job...but they wont compete unless sony fucks up til the next generation (ps4...xbox720?

)

High Plains Drifter · 08-18-2005, 06:09 PM

Once again, the xbox and playstation will be close enough in features that the only thing that will matter is the game library. If there hadn't been a Halo, there wouldn't even be an xbox360.

Project-Shadow · 08-18-2005, 06:10 PM

Seeeegaaa....

xclusive · 08-18-2005, 06:22 PM

The XBox is going to have a strong lead but i'll be getting both and don't count microsoft out they have a lot more money to burn.

wedouglas · 08-18-2005, 06:26 PM

Do you think Sony hasnt planned for XBOX's early shipment? I think they know more about the situation than you. Given their track record, I'd say they know whats up.

P.S. PS3 will own xbox360

nico-t · 08-18-2005, 06:28 PM

no it wont

xlogger · 08-18-2005, 06:31 PM

Xbox 360 is $100 less that ps3? Seriously, i wont buy an xbox even if its $100 less that ps3. I need my GTA!!~!~!

It could be a mistake putting xbox 360 $100 less that ps3.

Gamecube was $100 less that ps2 or xbox. What happened there?

OTerror · 08-18-2005, 06:50 PM

i would still stick with my old PS1

Nickless · 08-18-2005, 07:24 PM

This time M$ stands a chance against sony and nintendo, but being first to market is just a part of it, on the US front it's a no brainer with halo 3 and EA sports titles and xbox live, but also they have secured a lot of launch titles, some of them even attractive for the Japanese market that has ignored the xbox completely in the past, they'll have ridge racer, lots of RPGs (one by akira toriyama/dragon ball) a nice osaka-designed case (seems like no big deal but it IS for the jap market) in short, LOTS of support from third party developers that will put out some good launch titles.

wargames · 08-18-2005, 07:30 PM

Like millions of other people out there i will be buying both.

tragedy · 08-18-2005, 07:54 PM

the first console to launch in a generation has never won a console war. The turbographics 16, the sega saturn, and the sega dreamcast, are all prime examples.

history says the odds are against the xbox360. a consoles average market lifespan is 5 years...makes you wonder if its being rushed to market when the original xbox is only 4 years old. not to mention that NO launch games have been annouced...

"slightly better graphics"? wake up will you...lol

"lack of some key games" -> bullshit....

"worst controllers ever" -> bullshit part III, btw what do you think about the new super-duper controller of the PS3?..sorry but that takes the prize when it comes to non-functional controllers

The Xbox controller was only bad if you had mini-barbie hands

tskkk tskkk

Correct me if I'm wrong but gamecube sold more units then xbox in the end ... I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere

OK Revolution is only slightly more than 2 twice as powerful as a PS2, XBOX 360 15 times, PS3 35 times. Think again. Revolution will nothing more than the equivalent of a slightly more advanced ps2. If it cost less than $200 it will sell to those with kids under 8 and pokemon/mario fans. As soon as XBOX 360 comes out XBOX will drop to $100 then so will PS2. So if you own a gamecube and you want better system and you are cheap then just get a XBOX or PS2 instead once the prices drop. They have just now in the last year stop making PS1 games so XBOX and PS2 games will still be made for another 4 years.

RogerV · 08-18-2005, 11:00 PM

i like my Xbox and my sony PSP it rocks when I travel

FTVGirls · 08-18-2005, 11:04 PM

whether ps3 will rule or not, their PSP is a sure winner.

Young · 08-18-2005, 11:08 PM

X-Box has outsold PS2 over the last year and a half or so. PS2 got a huuuuggge head start and the higher powered x-box took awhile to catch on.

Expect the same thing this time around but with the roles reversed. X-Box will win at first...but PS3 will outlast.

fuzzypeach · 08-18-2005, 11:27 PM

Crazy Taxi was the bomb

Greg B · 08-18-2005, 11:38 PM

Playstation has such a fan base it can't lose. The new PS3 has so many features it's scary. There's more computer power in this new PS3 than NASA has had prior to 1995.

SONY makes shitty computers but everything else they make lasts like a muhfuh.

Greg B · 08-18-2005, 11:41 PM

I just bought Tiger Woods' PGA Tour 2005 and Outlaw Golf. Outlaw Golf is a fucking riot. Easy to play and awesome. PGATour is awesome also. But Spider-Man 2 just fuckin' blew me away. I cannot get enough of that game. I have all but maxed it out and I still have tons of shit to do. The game won't fucking end! It's my idea of a great game. I can't imagine what Spidey 3 will be like. Oddworld is another masterpiece but they went exclusive to XBox after twice on PS. I hated that shit and have boycotted that game line ever since. Brilliant, brilliant game but that switchover ate ass.

Both consoles have great exclusive franchise titles that are only playable on their system.

They both win, because the majority of us who aren't 12, and don't "root" for one console over another don't give a shit who "wins" and will just buy both.

lol, kids.

PussyTeenies · 08-19-2005, 12:57 AM

well ps3 will ste be strong .. sony has a bunch of fans!

i haven't played anything on the ps2 in years .. only thing i've played was Tekken 5 few months ago.

but i'll still buy the ps3

have to get my collection complete

blazin · 08-19-2005, 01:06 AM

All depends on the games that are available when it comes out

aico · 08-19-2005, 01:23 AM

PS3 will blow Xbitch out of the water, just like they do each and every time. Nothing will change. The fact that Xbox comes out first is an advantage to PS3... it can advertise against it's weaknesses, can see what people don't like about it and improve theirs, etc, etc, etc....

Im afraid I disagree, I personally would wait a whole year longer for the PS3. I've never got along with the Xbox and its lack of good games. PS3 will be a far superior machine and the games will be amazing (any one seen the video trailers for Killzone 2?) Good things come to those who wait....

the developers admitted most of that trailer was pre-rendered so...

plus Sony likes to hype the living shit out of their stuff, example: Emotion Engine for PS2 anybody?

Acording to Sony PS2 would be able to make games with gfx as good as PSX Final Fantasy FMV sequences...

PS3 Games will BLOW Xbox games out of the freaking water. Xbox will only play Dual Layer DVD (9 gigs) while PS3 uses the Blu-ray format (54 Gigs).

It's called "First-mover advantage" and it's not always an advantage... take a fucking advertising class or two before you decide to talk about what you do not know.

Bottom line will be the games, and I am pretty sure with 54 GB to work with, compared to the measely 9 GB on the Xbox, PS3 games will kick ass.

tragedy Confirmed User Join Date: Jul 2002 Posts: 125	the first console to launch in a generation has never won a console war. The turbographics 16, the sega saturn, and the sega dreamcast, are all prime examples. history says the odds are against the xbox360. a consoles average market lifespan is 5 years...makes you wonder if its being rushed to market when the original xbox is only 4 years old. not to mention that NO launch games have been annouced... __________________ <a href="http://www.trafficholder.com/aff.php?leggytv">TrafficHolder.com - Buy/Sell Adult Traffic</a>

PS2 got a huuuuggge head start and the higher powered x-box took awhile to catch on. Expect the same thing this time around but with the roles reversed. X-Box will win at first...but PS3 will outlast. __________________ ★★★

There's more computer power in this new PS3 than NASA has had prior to 1995. SONY makes shitty computers but everything else they make lasts like a muhfuh.

Greg B So Fucking Banned Join Date: Jul 2001 Location: EARTH (for the time being) Posts: 7,014	I just bought Tiger Woods' PGA Tour 2005 and Outlaw Golf. Outlaw Golf is a fucking riot. Easy to play and awesome. PGATour is awesome also. But Spider-Man 2 just fuckin' blew me away. I cannot get enough of that game. I have all but maxed it out and I still have tons of shit to do. The game won't fucking end! It's my idea of a great game. I can't imagine what Spidey 3 will be like. Oddworld is another masterpiece but they went exclusive to XBox after twice on PS. I hated that shit and have boycotted that game line ever since. Brilliant, brilliant game but that switchover ate ass.

They both win, because the majority of us who aren't 12, and don't "root" for one console over another don't give a shit who "wins" and will just buy both. lol, kids. __________________

The fact that Xbox comes out first is an advantage to PS3... it can advertise against it's weaknesses, can see what people don't like about it and improve theirs, etc, etc, etc....
