Sony Are Not The Enemy

[SSaxdude]

I hate Sony because both PS2s I've had have had many problems, the PS2 was so overrated that the Dreamcast failed, they act like everything is ok when it's not, they shut down lik-sang for no reason, and many other reasons.

So there, I hate Sony not just because they don't want me to play emulators on my PSP, but for other reasons.

No, it's NOT. Nintendo can provide nice warm retro-gaming fuzzies without scalping their customers. Sony aren't capable of doing that without having an agenda to push.

well thats nintendo, you cant expect every business to be like each other

Basil, you're lucky you primarily hang out at DCEmu, because anywhere else, you would get fried.

is that supposed to be a threat, cause its empty, everyone has their opinions which hold facts, oh and btw, i'm not primarly "hanging out" in DCEmu, i primarly "hang out" in QJ.net Forums.

If you see the screename basil zero, you can see why, when looking at my post count.

DCEmu, i only come here for news thats it, if u look at my post history, 95% of my posts have been made in the news sections.


ALSO, i made my statements even in QJ, and unlike "most" people, fanboyism is like a disease, which leads to bias information and lacking of any actual evidence.

Well you cant blame a company just because a small margin of people had defective ps2s, i mean come on, not every system or piece of hardware isnt perfect.

And because of one system's death isnt the fault of another system, though it may contribute to it, if you think about it, what happened to all the sega fanboys who left sega and went after other systems?

I can expect a great many things. What I can expect is only limited by my imagination.

One of those things that I expect is that companies that desire my custom do not take unnecessary liberties in attempting to obtain it, nor do they attempt to coerce me into buying new products by withholding features of the product I have already bought until I do so.

True, you CAN expect things to improve, but once again, thats up to the company's decision, the only other way you can convince them to change what they are doing is if you work with them(high class employee), other than that, nothing much but to speculate of things they can do.

Nothing we can do, we're just the consumers and not the producers.

The difference between nintendo and sony at the moment, is that nintendo seem to be doing things right and sony, wrong. And I expect sony to be like nintendo in the way of making me, and many other gamers happy.

The producers are supposed to be making us, the consumers happy, and giving us what we want, it's how they make money and keeps us happy. The problem is that, sony is failing at that at the moment.

Well, like i said, you cant expect all companies to be the same, there will be ups and downs on every company.

Sony made people happy with PS2

Alot of people were disappointed with Nintendo's GCN

Now, its reversed.

The producers are supposed to be making us, the consumers happy, and giving us what we want, it's how they make money and keeps us happy. The problem is that, sony is failing at that at the moment.

I wouldnt be saying that Sony's failing right now, if your saying, because of lack of sales compared to Wii and Xbox360, well lets check the factors:

1. PS3 is 600 dollars, not everyone can afford it

2. Xbox360 is more than a year old

3. Wii is cheaper, and nintendo is more accepted to the gaming community due to the great achievements over the past few years.

I expect sony to do better with PS3 in a matter of 1-2 years , just like i said about PSP, which is doing well in 2007.

Thats the sad truth with Sony. It doesn't seem the truth with Microsoft and Nintendo though. They actually LISTEN to their customers. Such as, customers say they want awesome games, and affordable system. Nintendo makes the Wii wireless remote. Microsoft makes Bishock, Halo 3, Gears of War, Mass Effect, Too Human, Dead Rising, ect.

Sony sticks a Blu-Ray player in the PS3 for an extra $300.

WTF? Where did that come from?

:rofl: that's exactly my point.

Much as I hate Microsoft as a company, I'd much rather have a 360 than a PS3. And I already own an XBox. Two in fact (just bought a second for £30). Admittedly, I only use it for XBMC, but that doesn't change the fact that I did play games on it once, and enjoyed them too.

Which is a hard admission for a man who has detested Windows for years.
