Sony feeling the strain - Bach

[TacticalBread]

Please... Microsoft av never made an original product in their life. Sony made the gaming scene wat it is 2day with the ps1. The ps2 was the outright bestselling console of the last generation why should things change now?

You may be right, but Nintendo basically started the gaming scene with the NES, and they are and have always been the most original. If you don't think Nintendo is original, then you are an idiot.

nintendo started the gaming scene? i guess you were too young too remeber the atari?? the coleco? intelevision? ( ok most of them are crap but they were first!)

[TacticalBread]

What I meant was Nintendo didn't necessarily start the gaming scene, but they made it what it is today.

Well...yeah.

In fairness, I take all console slating from the opposition with a pinch of salt. consumers voices should be heard . . . not the usual bashing from the opposition.

of course this "strain" will be temporary, look in about Q3 2007 and beyond, and u'll see sony steadily yet slowly coming back on #1

In my opinion, Sony will never be top. Their unoriginality will be the death of them.

Atari 2600 started it all for me. A very happy Christmas at the time. Space invaders, missile command, asteroids were many hours of fun:thumbup:

what a $#@!, I dont think he could fit up his own arse any more than he is already.

Im a big Nintendo fan, always have been ever since I 1st played SMB in like '86, yet I still own 2 psp's & not yet a DS.

I bought a 360 just a few weeks ago simply for Dead Rising & now ive a 2nd title, Oblivion.

But the fact of the matter is, when GTA IV comes out next Oct, the 360's going on ebay (if it hadn't already) & it'll be trip to the shops for a ps3 & a copy of gta.

Sony at the moment, i admit, do suck & I dont buy umd's because of this, just homebrew. But im sure it'll smooth out & be long forgotten with in a fair few months, but with loud mouth suits like this $#@!jockey, microsoft to me will always be trailing behind Nintendo & Sony (& prob apple with there release of a crap ipod rip off).

i've been reading though the comments to this post and i saw something that i've seen over and over before. people hating sony because they are "arrogant". everyone's opinion is their own, but is it really arrogance? if we lived in japan, would the way our culture has raised us make us see this so called arrogance as an entirely different word all together? sure they have made mistakes, but so haven't other companies. I personally think all three companies in the game now need to stop being so cut throat to each other. [or at least figure out a way to make their fanboys less fanboyish] but I don't whole heartedly agree with the use of "arrogance" to deem sony as the worst thing since DDT.

i'm sure no one will really get what i'm trying to say, but just take a minute and do a self inventory of your understanding of the word "arrogance" and see if it really globally applies, or if you just want it to.
