Best company of the Big Three?

Who, in your opinion, is the best company of the big three?

Sony fanboy here.

Nintendo, easily. They make the most innovative hardware and they make the best games, both historically and in the present.

Neither

All are bad.

Used to like Microsoft but after Windows 8 and Xbox One I'm not so sure about that. Each company is in deep stinky pile of brownish substance. Would love Sony though, if they redesign PS controllers.

Because in the end, all three companies want money.

But it's funny about Win 8. For years, people wanted MS to change Windows and they did, and now the same people want MS to change Windows back.

People are stupid like that.

The big 3 have all disappointed me in the past, but I think Sony is the one saving face right now. Although MS did go back on their policies. Still a little pissed they brought them up in the first place. Nintendo...well I don't know what to say about them. I feel like Nintendo has abandoned me.

I think it would go something like

Sony - Don't really remember what pissed me off so much. Oh wait...yeah that 600 dollar price tag. That was ridiculous. Other than that I'm cool with how Sony has managed itself over the years. PS Plus giving 2 free games per month was brilliant and it makes me completely salty/jelly. PS4 is being handled well.

Xbox - Few decisions here and there that pissed me off, but nothing too bad. Decisions like rising the price of live because of stupid netflix and applications I can get for free on my PC. The original Xbox being tossed aside like a used condom is still a sore spot.

Nintendo - Nintendo has consistently managed to piss me off each generation. They refuse to keep up with the hardware of the competition and it pisses me off. I can appreciate their wiimotes and 3D 2 screened handhelds, but most of that stuff just is not for me. I am not a graphics whore(well i am but not to the point of hating a game) but I'm just salty about how Nintendo games are lagging behind and the lack of 3rd party support seals the fkn deal. Those 2 could be easily fixed if they stopped being so dense IMHO.

I don't pick favorites. I just go with what works the best each generation.

I suppose that is my stance, but I'd add what works best for me each gen.

I also feel people have short term memory.

For example, everybody has been talking good about Sony but forgot the entire PSN outage from attacks. It was down for almost a month and 77 million accounts were compromised.

But when the XBOX One announced it needs to be connected online, people suddenly forgot about it. And then started praising Sony for being customer focused!

Really?.........i suppose Sony had to deal with it somehow.

Yeah. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_Network_outage

They were giving away free games for peoples trouble but the games were old. They were InFamous, LittleBigPlanet, Dead Nation, Super Stardust HD and Wipeout HD.

I think it might have been "Anonymous"...They also hacked many other sites at the time.

Yeah, it might of been.

It has less to do with short term memory and more to do with who is acting like the biggest shit head at the moment. Which would be Microsoft. Sony has messed up a lot in the past but the fact that they aren't at the moment instills some confidence.

Agreed.

That is true.

Imagine that, every day, you had stale and moldy bread on your plate. You ask your father (Microsoft) for something different. He says "Okay son", and turns around, drops his pants, squats over your plate, and takes a huge, steamy shit all over your plate.

Moldy bread starts to look real nice at that point.

It isn't enough to change, you must change for the better.
