scam? how can a well known company selling there new console be a scam?
What a funny word it is, and it sounds so negative.
The fact of the matter about the word is. it only enforces others to have some form of control over another's opinion, Saying how can you say that, that's hypocritical, is like saying you just said something contrary to that, how can you say this new thing now?:confused:
Fact is, you can say what you want, when you want too, without worrying what other people think of your opinion, in fact
The simple matter of things is. people may or may not change there minds on a whim, or may have a conflicted opinion on certain topics. others may not like it, but they'll just have to deal with it..
I'm all about the wii these days, and I've all but forgotten the psp ever existed. And I was once a devout psp supporter, But just because i'm not now, doesn't make me hypocritical, It only makes me free to decide my own opinions. which wont be alienated or pushed around because someone else wants to start slinging the (H) word.
In fact.. ill change my opinion right now,! poof! the ps3 is the bomb, and the wii sucks!! got a problem with it? well calling me a hypocrite wont change it any.
Gosh I love the ps3, its so much better then the wii!!!!! damn its so sexy
Oops! opinion shift!! Now the wii's king once again and the ps3 blows donkey particles.
got a problem with it. ~~Deal......
Ohh now the ps3 and the wii both suck. I like Cheese dammit!!!
Cheese is King of the next gen!!! Got a problem with it? So what!!
Oops, Now the wii is back on top again.. wow aren't opinions fun
And isnt it strange, HOW PEOPLE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE THEM AT WILL!!:mad:
People would do well to remember that, and stop there crazy nit picking..
I don't know how long it'll take. But in time. something will strike my fancy and make me forget all about the wii. Just as something happened to make me forget about the psp. and the x-box before that.
For a real lesson in what hypocritical truly is, Stay tuned to some of my posts in future months, If Ihavnt changed my mind completely about the wii by then. Well that would just be totally out of character for me
Times and opinions change, I can guarantee that:thumbup:
Don't you see that even saying 'stabbed in the back' when talking about a multibillion dollar corporation is ridiculous? Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft, Nike, Coca Cola, Ford.. none of those companies give a damn about your feelings or anyone else's. The ONLY thing they care about is money, making as much of it as possible is the entire reason they exist. Getting emotionally attached to a console or any product is just plain foolish.Quote:

The only reason they've created the Wii and the DS is because they realised they had no chance of competing head on with Sony and MS. If they were so keen on innovation why didn't they release the DS earlier? Because they had no need to, they dominated the handheld market with the gameboy and kept milking gamers with rehashes and tired old NES technology.
Oh and by the way i'm not a big Sony fan at all, i'm a fan of no big company.. i like games regardless of the box that plays them. It just irritates me to read the countless moaning and whining about Sony, if you can afford a PS3 then buy one, if you can't then don't. It's really simple. In fact the best system currently is the PS2, massive selection of games and cheap.
I haven't played anything else since getting my Wii.
Everybody in the house will play the wii, but only the "youngsters" want to play the xbox or the playstation..
I haven't played anything else since getting my 360. I only know one person who's bought a Wii and that was for his two young children. Without the software to back it up the Wii will quickly get boring, so far only Zelda has the depth to keep playing.Quote:

This is not a negative thing! Many older gamers also enjoy games fulfilling those requirements, i do myself! Games companies will always try to appeal to as wide an audience as is possible - simply for money. For example, the female audience is attracted by the singstar, eyetoy and dancing games on the PS2 (not to mention that sony releases all of its consoles in pink...sigh...something ninetendo has recently emulated - as well as producing ninentendogs for the female gamer).
I myself am a hearty supporter of the PS3 for: its pure power, in terms of hardware; the beautiful graphics, that i know that that hardware can render; the controller, for its ergonomic/comfortable design and the motion sensitivity (which i believe is more suited to me than the Wii's controller); my, maybe misplace, loyalty and love of Sony; the fact that Sony's consoles have so many games on them that it there has to be SOME good games - just due to the laws of probability and finally, irrelevantly, OMFG it looks so indescribably, beautifully, magnificantly, wonderfully SHINY!
I am unfortunately/fortunately English because: the PS3 doesn't come out until march and is expensive/everything else due to England being the greatest country in the world.
(BTW the last comment is me being patriotic, not racist - the boundaries of the two are, regrettably, beginning to fuse.)
I'm making a judgement based on what I have seen. The PS3 is definitely geared towards teen and mid 20s males. The wii and nintendo in general seem to just cater for people who want to pick up a game, play and then put it down.
I quite agree with your comments. I was one of the first in line for an original psx, and more recently a psp. The psp has let me down personally. I wont get a ps3, although to be fair I wont be able to get one due to short supply and they are so expensive.
I never got a 360, although I still play (or use) my original xbox nearly every day for movies and emulators.
Sony dont rate highly in my book any more.. which is sad as I used to be quite a fan...
Fair enough. But, might i add, is a good thing to just pick up a game and play it then put it back down - i don't want to spend a huge portion of my life on my games but i feel that games should have more playability than that.
Its a pity that your no longer a fan - but they have done enough to deserve it, so theres no faulting you.
PS3, Wii or Xbox 360 - its like arguing over apple pies, mince pies and cherry bakewells (no particular comparison between pie and console, though i prefer PS3 and apple pie). Everyone will have something different to say and nobody, apart from the big G-man, can say which is the best.

Look here. Nowhere does it say "Over Priced Gaming Console Scam."
Therefore, I'm pretty sure PS3 is not a scam, just an over priced gaming console, that isn't nearly what it was made out to be.
How can the PSP let you down? It does exactly what it says on the box, it's a portable playstation that also allows you to play music, display photos and video. The games released for it are down to the publishers and developers, if you've seen Crisis Core then you'll realise it's quite a powerful machine in the right hands.Quote:

Microsoft have always been bully boys with their attitude of destroying the competition or if they can't beat them just buying them outright.
Sony have dropped the ball lately and made some stupid mistakes.
The point is no company is perfect, they're all after your money at the end of the day and nothing more. They feel no emotional attachment to you so why should you feel any different towards them.
Well i dont .In my opinion Wii sucks and PS3 doesnt.Quote:

I hope this time around, We see that kind of gen war again :thumbup:
Bring it on, fun times!!, and third party devs scrambling to pick up the slack for any console willing to throw down enough money.
If all goes well in this generations gen wars.
And things heat up enough, we may even bare witness to a new renascence age in gameing once again.
Wouldnt that be nice?
Entire new series will be born.
inovation will sweep over every console.
I have to say. To coin a phrase from wraggy. Its true. interesting times indeed for us fans :thumbup:
By the way. weather nintendo wins this next gen or not, ~ i myself hope they do.
But one thing nintendo rarely ever does is abandon a console. we will see new games for the wii for many years to come :)
Bottom line. I dont have time to play video games 6 hours a day but id like to have a little bit of fun every now and again. I also cant be spending $500 on a console. Ive just got more important things to spend my money and no one at my age under my circumstance can just shell out that sort of cash at any given minute. The wii looks and plays good enough for me. In fact it plays the best for me :)
Well obviously. You appear to be a Sony fan boy. Excuse me if you're not, but it sure seem that way.Quote:

You're in serious danger of being shown up as a dribbling fanboi.. there are no other 'awesome' Wii games yet but i'm sure more will be coming sooner or later. The current crop of games are mostly above average gimmicky efforts or ports with the Wii controller shoe-horned into the gameplay poorly.Quote:

I agree that if this war of consoles is half as heated a sthe SNES vs Genesis era then we will be in for some fantastic games on ALL systems, some of which will be exclusive, meaning that to play them all you will need to own several consoles, it's going to be a tough time making desisions, but dont critisise others if they do not share your fondness of "x" console, just agree to dissagree and enjoy the games you have.
most people bought their wii's for zeldaQuote:

I never mentioned the PS3, you're the one bringing the PS3 into it with this mature comment!Quote:

I dont disagree that the wii is lacking in software at the moment. but much like the PS3 it was JUST released.Quote:

Ironic. The same could be said about ps3 thus far. I know you probably meant this sarcastically but its true. Resistance : fall of man is the only memorable ps3 title thus far I can think of. That may be due to the fact that I dont read every magazine and internet review site on the internet (like I used to do 2 years ago) but i think thats about it so far. I am sure you will come up with more but surely the wii lovers will too ;) . But the point is.. you cant decide who is superior in the software aspect because both consoles are in their infancy.Quote:
"Unlike the PS3 then?:rofl: "
capn' 1 time is right, as a matter of fact PS3 has a shitter line up so far, as resistance is surely not as good as zelda. also, to the point of this topic, i think the wii is a novelty but just 'cos its a novelty don't mean it aint fun and worthwhile. anyway i shouldn't really be posting as i cant be assed with sony and am not buying a wii; getting 360! (ive mentioned this in like 3 posts, sorry if you are annoyed but just so psyched man!)
Well to be completly random and butt in, has anyone played Trauma Center: Second Opinion? I played UTK and loved it and was wondering if anyone has given the Wii version a tryout....yea wrong place but like i said, randomness :D
rofl. I have it, but I don't have a Wii yet D:Quote:
