PS3 a bust.

[Rocket Edge]

I'm still gonna buy the PS3, so i'll judge it when it comes out. Worrying though..

[~*~Celes~*~]

My dad is obsessed with getting a PS3...I'd rather have a Wii myself, but meh.

From what I saw, the PS3 has some nice stuff. Also, a friend of mine was on ebay, looking up how much things cost, and saw a NEVER OPENED PS3 for over $1,000 USD. Didn't include games or anything. If someone's willing to pay that much for a PS3, I'd say it's NOT a bust, but a buzz.

You should disregard anything that article said when he/she started making the genital jokes.

People at Gamestop were saying before it came out the ps3 was the best thing since sliced bread, now they say they're selling more Wii's and Wii accessories than they ever thought possible.

Wii > Ps3

[Edit] I noticed how alot of people were saying that all the ps3's shipped were bought. Just because a mass amount of items are bought doesn't mean it's that great, once they rip the box open and realize what-ever-doesn't-appeal to them is there, they prolly just figure they'll wait around until the big games come out. It's the hype and the various games that make it a seller. Kind of like the PSP, I wanted that just for luminus, then I realized it'd be a really REALLY big waste of money.

A massive amount wasn't bought anyway, because a massive amount wasn't made.

[Madame Adequate]

Well sure the launch was a bust, anyone can see that.

I'll get back to you in three years about whether the console itself is a bust, though.

I'm sorry, do you own a PS3 to make that kind of claim? How can you speak for other people, and say that they are disappointed in their purchase.

My sister brought hers down when she came to visit, I wasn't too impressed, I did like the fact there weren't many pixels at the edge of things and things were shinier, I guess I'm just not one for graphics that look -that- 3D graphicy, I'd rather watch the games than play them. I wouldn't buy it given the money or the choice. Plus the guys at Gamestop were right, unless you have an HD Tv graphics arn't going to look as great.
My dad's big Tv is new and is prolly why everything didn't look as shiny as the demo's at Gamestop. If I did buy one ever, I'd buy a new Tv to go with it.

[RiseToFall]

Well the reason I said that was because my buddy got one with a copy of Resistance, and let me try it out for a while. I thought it was great, and he's damn happy with it. I know there's this whole anti-Sony thing going on right now, but some of the things people are saying are just ridiculous.

[The Fat Bioware Nerd]

I'm not going to buy a PS3 because I refuse to pay six hundred dollars for a console. I'd rather buy a Wii for two hundred and fifty dollars.

Virtua Fighter 5 comes to 360.

The launch most certainly sucked. But it seems as though that eventually, I'm going to have to buy the darned thing.

[Vivisteiner]

The launch was crap. I have no idea how successful it will be overall, but the only thing tying me to the PS3 is Final Fantasy.

Now look at your next paragraph.

Did you notice that you try to rag on the PS3 for selling out, even though you use sales as your argument for the Wii being better than the PS3. Come on now...

As far as people buying into the hype and then being dissapointed; I had a friend who thought the Wii would be the greatest thing since sliced bread (and coincidentally is the biggest Nintendo fanboy I've ever met). Once he played it at a friends house (played Wii Sports, Zelda, and a few others) even he agreed with me that it's not really worth buying right now, and would be better off waiting for games that make better use of the controller and have a little more depth to them. I don't bring this up to say that the Wii is bad or anything, but more to show that your point of people buying into the hype and then being dissapointed applies to every console. It's all a matter of personal taste.
