Sony's Phil Harrison: no pressure to drop PS3 price
Feb 26th 2007 4:43PM (Joystiq)Define "How you killed your brand" for us, we'll define "you're wrong"
Feb 26th 2007 4:08PM (Joystiq Playstation)And once again, PS3 fanboy(s) miss the point and look stupid.
“Since I don't really like fanboyism” Do you even know the name of your site? Hell, this site claimed the reason VF5 didn’t look as good as the BS target renders was because it was also on the 360. You guys are all about the fanboyism.
Regarding the pricing chart, he was referring to this generation. The ps3 costs the most out of this gen. And all of those consoles with ‘cult followings’ that you mentioned were unmitigated failures.
And you must be drinking deep of the sony kool aid to think that the 3DO was EVER a respected system. It was an overteched, unplayable mess. And it is CD-I, not CD-L. Nice knowledge there. The charts isn’t bad, it is simply showing straight facts. Console priced as ridiculously high as the ps3 tend not to do well.
“We've been to the moon (meaning stuff we've seen before, Microsoft) and the PS3 is chillin' there with you right now, but in a few years, Sony will create a gigantic slingshot on the moon and hurl itself right towards Helios, the sun god. Does it not take longer to get to the sun than the moon? Anyone can get to the moon (figuratively). It's harder, costs more, and takes more time to get to the sun”
Actually, Sony hasn’t reached the mon yet since it has yet to MEET let alone exceed the standard set by MS. And don’t pull this “you are buying potential,” bullshit. The consoles are about equal in power. It has been shown time and time again. There is no magic repository of extra power in the ps3 that will make it next-next gen or anything like that. Deal with it.
“Whatever. It's a facetious claim, since 4D doesn't exist in this universe. Using it against Sony is just as facetious and useless.” You don’t know what facetious means do you? Kutaragi made a claim. A bullshit claim that no one could live up to. That’s part of the fucking song, you tool.
“The XBox Live comparisons... oh, lord... of course. How long has Live been around, growing and maturing, getting updates, repairs, tweaks, and most importantly, created by a company that has pretty much built the computer/world-wide-web world as we know it today? Sony is doing what it can and it's got a pretty competent service -- plus it's free. No size limit on PS-Store files... that's how we can get stuff like Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection in 1080p downloaded. They've got a point with finding friends in games. We'd like that option... but we don't know what's coming in the update in March.”
That’s the point. Sony went on about how PNP would be the live killer and it turns out to be almost as bad as online on the ps2. I swear, Sony fanboys are the only group in history that will use the competition being years more advanced as an excuse. It isn’t Sony’s fault the online isn’t as good. Microsoft set the bar too high! Tough luck. Rise to the challenge or don’t.
Don’t get me started on the Bluray bit. For someone who claims to not like fanboys, you seem to exhibit all the signs. Bluray won’t allow for better games. Most games will be able to fit on a DVD9 unless they use vast amounts of last gen FMV, (much like resistance).
About Ebay: Don’t even try to spin it as a positive. If people wanted the ps3 bad enough, they would pay anything for it, like what happened with the wii and the 360. The fact that people were returning ps3’s to stores and that stores weren’t sold out of them shows that the ps3 suffered form reduced demand. Why buy a $600 system if a $400 system is superior in nearly everyway?
Killzone: Sony tried selling killzone as a halo killer. Thus any flack coming its way because of this is their fault. You should also know that the scored the guy showed were actually quite high. A great many killzone reviews were 7 and under. Some went as low as 3 out of ten.
The Harisson voice over is INTENDED to be obvious. It is EXAGGERATIION FOR COMIC EFFECT.
I’m not even going to bother with the rest. It just spirals further and further down into paranoid delusion. You’ve proven once agian why sony fanboys are such a laughing stock. You have no sense of humour, an inflated sense of self importance, and you are perfectly willing to split as many hairs as you need in order to to make your console seem better than it is.
Killing us softly with a PS3 song

And the SDF will have to wake up when they realizew how much junk
data developers have to shove onto a blue ray disc to use up space.
Interesting fact: Fall of man could fit on a DVD. If you only had
what you needed to play the game in your native language, and got rid
of all the extra junk data that doesn't do anything, the game is
barely bigger than 6 gigs.

Remember, you can use the 360 controller for both the psc and the 360.

Marketing group gauges interest in MGS4 on 360
Feb 19th 2007 10:05PM (Joystiq)Dude, read what he said/ His reasoning was that Metal Gear movie is being done by sony, so the game won't go to 360. But the spiderman movie is also done by sony and it went to MSt just the same.
Hense his reasoing is flawed, and you are an idiot.
