Offered NO FUCKING GAMES and OBSCENE development prices.

Had the world accepted the PS3, we would be in a mindrotten sony monopoly filled to the brim with shit. I don't think we would even call those things videogames given the utter disgrace of the diarrhea of moviegames that ensued.

It's a disgrace that the PS3 can't fail again because by god it deserved to. Fuck you. Fuck Yoshida. And fuck Cerny. That goddamned piece of crap was so, so, so, SO bad that it grabbed a company from the very top of the console industry and dragged it low enough to set the first stages to its disappearance.

/v/ stands for VIDEO GAMES. if you would rather parrot shit about consoles instead fuck you and kill yourself.

The 360 was more expensive specially if you bought the cheapest one
Anonymous No.717794507 >>717805157
>>717793953
It ofteb had inferior versions of multiplats, compared to the 360, which is unacceptable for a console that marketed itself as the most powerful.

It technically was, except every "advantage" came at the expense of gaming.

It had a GPU shoved in at the 11th hour because madman Yoshida expected the cpu to do everything. The cell was shoved in via Sony fiat because they could get the development costs back in supercomputing.

Blu-ray also needlessly drove up the price, it served no advantage due to slow read times and Sony just wanted to win the format war. Which they did but it didn't matter because Blu-ray sales NEVER EVER eclipsed DVD sales. Also you can still find marketing polls from 2009 stating that most PS3 owners didn't fucking know they owned a blu-ray player

Also $600 is like $900 adjusted for inflation

All fanboys are subhumans, but Snoyniggers are somehow far below all of them. You are 100% correct but even with the "failure" of the PS3 we still get movie games everywhere with retarded budgets. I just think of all of the awful TV shows and movies that have come out recently based on video games is because normalfags think video games "should" be something more than video games.

I'm sorry you were bullied in high school, but the Sony Playstation 3 is a garbage console.
Anonymous No.717797742
>>717792845 (OP)
>>offered you free online
This just meant PS3 online was full of poorfags with garbage connections. PS3 online was also consistently behind on features compared to XBL.

>>offered you seamless PSX/PS2 backwards compatibility
Actual, although the sheer price meant it was doomed to eventually be removed. Developing a high quality PS2 emulator would have been a better use of their reaources

>>offered you a wirless controller with a charger (the only of the three that had this)
AKA tethered you to the console when your controller died instead of quickly swapping batteries and staying wireless

>>offered you built in WIFI without using a shitty dongle
Again, this ensured PSN was full of shitty connections. I noticed a massive drop in the quality of XBL when they released the S model with built in wifi.

>>offered you 60GB right out of the box
Actual feature. Microsoft's decision to launch a "core" model without the HDD hurt them with how long the generation went. If the PS4/Xbone were launched in 2011 MS's gamble would have worked.

>>offered you standard SATA HDD's instead of propietary ones
Actual feature.

>>offered you new state of the art Blu Ray player
Value add, although the PS4/Xbone standardizing to blu ray is what caused the massive install size bloat to begin.

>>offered you great first party games and JRPG's
Where?

Words cannot describe how much I miss free online. I never looked at sony the same way after they started demanding ps plus for online and from there on it keeps getting worse as time goes on.

The ability to easily load save files to/from a USB drive being removed completely on the ps5 and it ONLY being available via the ps plus cloud is just one of many things.

Never suck corporate cock, never fanboy they don't give a fuck I shot myself in the foot because I was a blind sonyfag. Being a fanboy of anything in this day and age is pathetic when Sony and M$ are porting their own shit to eachothers console. Consoles have lost their identity they are just PC's at this point

PS3 online was notoriously shit, even with a wired connection. Better point would be that wifi was built in, unlike 360.

PSX was good, PS2 was shoddy as hell. Also, that model was prone to exploding.

They fucked up by revealing a fucking boomerang and then dropping rumble.

Yeah, sure, but at the time that wasn't noteworthy for your average consumer since nobody thought about INSTALLING games.

It did not actually. Unless you liked playing Resistance and only Resistance, you were shit out of luck.

As was expected with the PS2 being backward compatible.

No-one liked the six-axis; the PS3 controller was despised until Sony settled the lawsuit against them or whatever & brought back rumble.

Which was nice, but slower than the ethernet connection and households didn't have a ton of ethernet-connected devices at the time.

Show me three (3) (III) news article at the time that touted SATA, AND got replies from people who also praised this decision. Literally no-one cared as no-one who bought the PS3 was thinking of ever needing to swap out their PS3 HDD. That was a PC thing that console peasants didn't understand, so they didn't care.

PS3 considered real-time weapons change and attacking weak points for massive damage to be revolutionary new gameplay features.

$600 in 2006 was like $1200 today. Also it was a year late to the market, and for $600 you could get both a 360 and a Wii, both which had a ton more & better games. And at least the Wii didn't suffer from constant breakdowns, and at least Microsoft kept replacing your console for free if it did broke down - PS3 broke down as often as the 360, probably more, but had worse warranty support.

>offered you seamless PSX/PS2 backwards compatibility
Yeah for the launch unit, then they dumbed it down, then they removed it.

>offered you new state of the art Blu Ray player

Wii did have some garbage and some of the worst entries in franchises. PS3 started Unsharted and TLOU. Two of the absolute worst games and series ever created. Only retarded normalfags think Uncharted is anything good.

Don't forget the part where Sony kept suing everyone who tried to run Linux on the console. Microsoft paid for the guys legal defense and gave him a free windows phone to tinker with.

There was no reason to stick with consoles at all after 6th gen was so thoroughly left behind by personal computers, so the success of a console depended entirely on its marketing and memes, both for its audience and to attract devs.
