Con: Playstation 3

Counters: The crux of your argument

PS3


"We talk about the superior features of the PS3 and you guys bash them, but never explain why the XBOX is actually good."

Oh how wrong you are.  The truth is PS3 owners ONLY talk about "superior features" (which are BS), while 360 owners talk about what really matters, the games.  Any company can make up numbers to try to make their system appear better, like Sony with their Cell architecture.  When they make claims about how powerful it is, they only talk about what the PS3 could do if the system was working at 100% efficiency.  In reality, a system with 7-8 CPUs will not run anywhere near 100% efficiency. (I say 7-8, because 1 CPU must be used for the O/S)  The more complicated you make a console, the harder it is to program for, regardless of how much potential it has.  (3 cores are easier to program for than 7-8 CELL CPUs.  Plus the CPU MS used is familiar to everyone in the gaming industry, while the CELL architecture has to be learned from the ground up)

You can talk about system specs all day long, but when it comes down to it, games are the only thing that matter.  Since cross-platform games look the same on both systems, and 360 has more exlusive titles, then the 360 is the better system.  If 360 had a Pentium 2 chip as its CPU, and it could still equal the graphics of the PS3, then that just proves the PS3 is a piece of $#!T.  So if an "inferior" system can produce the same graphics as your "superior" system, then your system is NOT superior.  If you want to claim that your PS3 is better, then show me the games that look better on PS3 than their 360 counterpart.  But you can't do that.  All you can do is talk about the superior "features" of the PS3.  Go play your "features", and tell me what level you get to! hahahahaha

"You keep saying that the 30% failure rate is a lie... but MS openly admits it."

Ok, show me the source where Micorosoft claimed a 30% failure rate.  C'mon, show me.  Oh, you can't??  Because MS never said that? hahaha  Maybe some $ony Fanboy blog claimed 30%, but Microsoft did not.

"Your other argument seems to be that the superior technology is expensive and not worth the money."

Why do $ony Fanboys have to lie to make themselves look better?  I never said PS3 was superior technology, I said it's equal to 360.  So why pay more for essentially the same thing??

"Apparently you are a fan of short system life cycles"

You're the one who bought the system that came out a year after the 360.  By my count, the 360 has (and will continue to have) a 1 year longer life cycle than the Foreman Grill 3.  Anything else you can say about this is pure speculation. (And I could speculate that $ony will come out with a new system first, since they're in last place.  Just like PS2 beat XBOX, so XBOX 360 came out first.)

"And then that other clown chimes in and acts like low sales figures are some sort of determination about the quality of the system."

Then what do low sales figures show?  A great system?  Oh wait, I think you're trying to say that the original XBOX was a better system than PS2 because it had lower sales figures.  Makes sense.

" I really just don't understand your logic at all.  You defend all that is ****ty about the 360.  I should probably just stop responding to any of these because your absurd points are doing a better job than I ever could."

I could say the same about you, but honestly you're not as bad as other $ony Fanboys.  You're what we call a "moderate Fanboy".  And I'm not really defending the 360, I'm insulting your precious PS3.  I don't own a Wii, but I still say it's a good system.  As far as I'm concerned, both PS3 & 360 could have been good, but $ony dropped the ball and screwed over its loyal customers.  This generation of video games is NOT about video games for $ony.  It's about a Blu-Ray vs HD-DVD media format war.  $ony wants to make $$ by winning its first media format war (They lost Mini Disc, Betamax, Memory Stick, etc.  PS1 & 2 are not media formats).  They acknowledge that their consumer electronics division is dead, that's why they expanded into music & movies.  So in order for $ony to survive, they MUST win the Blu-Ray vs HD-DVD war, so they can sit on their fat @$$ES and collect royalties.  Very noble of them.  So they slapped a Blu-Ray drive onto every PS3, and released the most expensive system in video game histroy.  They beat the old record by $200, yay for them.

$ony is failing, and you just wasted $600 on a Foreman Grill that can play $30-$40 DVDs.  Good choice.  I feel sorry for you.  But unless you demand a refund, then you're digging your own hole.  Jump ship now while $ony is still in the hardware business.
