You've got an interesting point, tho I'm going to disagree with you on the PS3, restecpfully, of course.Saelune said:
Whilst the PS3 of course doesn't have the library of games the PS2 had (which would be a noteworthy accomplishment for any console) it still has an ever-growing library of damn good games. On top of that it has full blu-ray compatibility, full HD support, free online access with a great store and a really good online store, future Steam support from what I've heard, as well as a bunch of free applications like Mubi, that are like video stores at home.
Of course it's not just a console, but in this day and age, what is? Just like mobile phones have evolved into multi-purpose platforms to help with our daily lives, the PS3 and 360 are both multi-purpose machines built for entertainment.
Sure Sony has made a bunch of stupid moves, but who hasn't? Microsoft and Nintendo sure as hell have.
*pant pant* Wow. . . I really don't know where that came from. I'm gonna get flamed for this, so I reckon I'll log off for the night XD
Well, this only applies to me, but most of that I dont care about or need. And most of the games the PS3 has that the 360 doesnt, I dont care for. Though, to be fair, 90% of the reason I bought a 360 over a PS3 was for Oblivion which was origionally not on the PS3. (Had it been on the PS3 but not the 360, I would have gotten it instead)captaincabbage said:
The biggest sell for the PS3 is movies. Whether you like it more or not, you cant deny that it was its Blu Ray player that was its paraded feature. I dont mind paying for online for XBL. It keeps Microsoft interested in keeping it good. Though the free PSO means if I do get a PS3, I wont need to pay for online that I will rarely use.
I agree completely. People need to STFU already and stop acting like spoiled twats.
It seems we've somehow achieved recursive complaining.CM156 said:
People do need to settle down and stop complaining about everything, even for a game they haven't played and isn't even out yet.
Also hasn't anyone noticed that compromise is a alien term to game forums. I mean every post about games for making them better and such is mainly a "do it this way or the highway" sort of thing where their is no compromise.
For example the thermal clip system in ME2 everyone demands that they revert back to ME1 system. Well how about a mix of the two where we have thermal clips and if you run out the rifle will revert to the ME1 rifle system and you can keep firing until you overheat. That way the fans can have their favorite weapon system and Bioware can keep the thermal clip system but honestly I don't have a problem with the thermal clip system.
Compromise it can work just give it a try.

"Stop complaining" is a bit too generic of a request. We don't "owe" anything to game companies, and they don't "owe" anything to us. People are vocal because they want game companies to know what upsets them. This helps game companies because they sometimes use that information to determine their next move.
Besides which, complaining is often reasonable. Obviously, if it were discovered that a game company forces its employees to eat babies, then we'd think they're pretty awesome. ......I-I mean, we would complain.
And even if you don't agree with the complaining in question, spouting off at them for it doesn't change their opinion. You're free to ignore them on forums (usually) but you may have to the simple fact that this many people hold that opinion.
Still, I kinda agree that certain whiners are unhelpful either way; we all know the all-caps kind who believe that X company has ruined Y franchise by introducing/removing Z mechanic and never backs up their opinions. Just recognize that once in a while, their opinions do hold water, and you can't universally dismiss them - we'd never make progress if we didn't know where people are going wrong.
