Last-Gen Console Discussions (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii)

Sony are like the gaming Nostradamus followers.

How many times can they claim they'll change gaming?

Too bad online distriubtion is already being done through Steam and EA.

It's funny, they claim they're changing gaming, but what theyre saying is that theyre changing console gaming, even though, they're not doing that either.

I've been saying it for years, to be honest.

Surrounded by people who say: "Nah, good games.". Finally people are realising otherwise. Although what a laugh it'll be if they all flock to Nintendo after realising that the Wii truly will be the best one.

I think the masses are already flocking to Nintendo. The DS is proof of that. I, myself wants to get my hands on a DS lite before the holiday rush.

Thanks for the advice guys.

PS3 will have good games as time goes on, just not enough to warrant a $600 dollar purchase right off the bat.

Everywhere I go in the real world (since Sony fanboys are harder to find in flocks there) people are supporting the Wii and the 360 over Sony. Any non-gamers who ask me about what's going on, when they hear just the straight facts, most think Sony is doing something really stupid. In game stores, employees I talk to are all really excited about the Wii, and loving the 360 they own, but view the coming of the PS3 more as a question of how faithful PS2 owners will be.

A few I talked to have bets on how few PS3s will sell in their store in the first week 😂

Playstation did have some good games, the last two consoles were pretty good in entertainment value.

I just think they're seriously screwing up what they have accomplished in terms of sales. They're going completly away from their market and becoming what the XBOX was.

This day in age, casual gamers are not faithful to any sort of brand and they're the big market, not fanboys.

hmm...i have some friends who say they're getting a ps3...ones outright fanboyish..("5 times more powerful than 360, 5 time more powerful then------nintendos shit, they're unpopular and shit, noone likes them-blahblahblah"😉..gets frustrating sometimes..oh well...

Well, people I've talk too are too impressed with it.

I think anybody with some sort of budget wont buy something thats 600 bucks

their loss i suppose...wii's only $3-400 here, so its definatly on my list...

All of my friends have PSX and PS2...and not a single one of them plan on getting a PS3.

I sure as hell don't. Especially what with the rumors that FF won't be exclusive anymore.

My brother and I are already making plans to purchase a Wii together.

^ Yeah Same here 😄

If FF is no longer PlayStation exclusive, then there is NO gaming reason to get a PS3. Problem solved, my worries allayed! 😄

...Hope it's true.

I really have no idea if it's true or not, but it's a rumor I've been hearing kicked around for a while.

FFX was the main reason we got a PS2 to begin with. But it seems a lot of former Sony exclusives are jumping ship. Gee I wonder why.

I thinking of doing this and usually there is a lot more bids but for some reason on this one there is only 1 bid. Is there something I am not reading or that I missed? 😆

I dont know if I should laugh or cry 😐

Well I got my XBOX360 but I also bought a Play and Charge Kit however I dont know how to remove it. Can someone help me out?

Umm nevermind, I got it out. I just didnt want to use more force than I needed too because its brand new.

well, seeing as there's FF3 on the DS and FF: Crystal Bearers on the Wii, i don't believe FF will be PS exclusive
