I think Sony, is like the new Sega.Supporting all 3 consoles at once,The PS3 the PS2 and the PSP, like sega did back then, saying the consoles arent competing with eachother.and the PS3 is going the way the Dreamcast did.
I think you forgot exactly what happened to the Dreamcast.
And, God willing, they won't be first party next generation.
I really hope Sony dies soon. I would die of happiness if it were to happen.
Why all the sony hate?Doesn't anyone remember the glory days of the ps1?I remember when the PS2 and the xbox came out, and everyone who had an xbox was a complete faggot.I guess the tides have turned.
>>26551370I'm not hating on Sony, I was thinking about how theyre similar to SEGA now
>>26551370or perhaps we just judge companies on what their current performance is now since that's what matters NOW?
>>26551370>the glory days of the ps1You mean when the N64 was the supperior console with better graphics and most memorable games?I sure do.
>>26551405What did it do wrong? It's superior to the other consoles in every way, and costs $100-$150 more. How is that bad?
>>26551614The PS1 had way more games than the N64.
>>26551652LOL MORE GAMES THE BETTER
I don't remember anyone ever saying "DREAMCAST HAS NO GAEMS."
>>26551652...and 75% of those were shovelwares and shitty games.
>>26551213It died. That's the point dumbass.
>>26551714DREAMCAST HAS NO GAEMS.
>>26551614That doesn't mean the Ps1 wasn't good. Stop being a maggot.
>>26551652Yeah it had more games, but not as good.

>>26551748NO UR THE MAGGET
>>26551614Oh I see, you were a kid with an N64. Kids with N64s were always spoilt, undisciplined faggots, but that's neither here, nor there.N64 and the Saturn may have had better graphics but the PSX had better quality games.
I actually owned an N64 and PS1. Had way more PS1 games. All in all, the N64 had about 20 good games on it.
>>26551754They're all the same.Your argument is now invalid.
>>26551837N64 list:Ocarina of TimeMajora's MaskBanjo-KazooieBanjo-TooiePokemon StadiumPokemon Stadium 2
>>26551819I happen to agree, but you're a fucking moron. Kill yourself.
Sony as a hole is in a shit ton of trouble not just their gaming division. They need to make some serious overhauls in all of their departments. The PS4 will happen and hopefully Sony can give some real competition to the competitors by getting their head out of their asses and focusing on what gamers want. Good games and lots of them.
>>26551721God dammit, you stupid fucks have no clue what shovelware even means any more.
The PS3 itself isn't a bad console.Sony just fucks up a lot with it's marketing.
>>26551886>WAAAAAAAAA HE OFFENDED ME
>>265518702 points. The N64 had way more fucking good games than that. And Pokemon Stadium isn't on the list of good games...
No. PS3 will sell well before the generation ends. The brand isn't going away.

>>26551614>>26551694>>26551721>>26551749Hey guys... apply these arguments to Wii vs PS3PS1 beat the N64 down as hard as Wii is beating down PS3 now. The parallels are actually quite staggering (Superior hardware, higher price-point, many fewer games (though of arguably higher quality), former market leader throwing out their brand-name recognition except to the most hardcore fans, losing marketshare due to the extreme amount of new "casual" gamers the cheaper more accessible competition brought, etc...)
PS3 is the Saturn, not the Dreamcast.- Botched launch with no third-party titlesGoogle Saturnday. On the PS3 side, MASSIVE DAMAGE, $599 US DOLLARS. Speaking of which- Priciest consoleSaturn was $349 to PSX's $299 to SNES' $99. ... well, $599 US DOLLARS.- Stupidly overcomplicated, "faster" hardware that's never faster:Saturn had 9 goddamn processors and bits of RAM scattered all over its board, and was a nightmare to program for. I remember Sega reps comparing Saturn to PSX by comparing an orchestra to one guy on a guitar. Somehow every multiplatform title was better on PlayStation. Well, everything was better on PlayStation. Sega fanboys insisted that it was just because lazy devs didn't want to learn to code for Saturn's awesome multi-CPU architecture.
>>26551312>>26551312well for all the hate i have for the xbox i dont want it gone its healthy competition. so please kindly shut the fuck up

PSP = Game Gear
if you like the n64 more than the ps1, its because you were 6 years old and couldn't play daddy's bigboy games.
Sony isn't the new Sega. They're name still means something to a lot of gamers. They've just marketed the PS3 wrong during this generation. They need to get the system to a price point that isn't intimidating to the casual audience. People have to know the games that the system has and why they should buy it over the competition. Look at Killzone 2. That thing should be absolutely everywhere with marketing, but I haven't seen a single commercial or any online ads for it anywhere. This recession will force Sony back to basics and hopefully they will be able to save some face by the end of this generation and be ready with lessons well learned for the next gen.
>>26552099>REHASHAN GAEMS
>>26552131Lolno.
PS3 is the Nintendo64 of this generation.It's more powerful, it's got better games, it's getting it's but kicked by the cheaper competition with more games.
>>26552018PS1>N64. Will you people get over the nostalgia, I grew up on the N64, but there is nothing the N64 had which the Playstation didn't offer. The Playstation had better RPGs, Racing games, Survival horror and action games.
>>26552174So are all the Crash Bandicoot, Final Fantasy and Resident Evil games on the PS1.
>>26552174The only rehashes I see are the Mario games.We got a whole fuckbunch of rehashes on the PS1 instead.
LOL GUISE I THINK PS3 IS THE NEW XBOX 360:-THEY BOTH HAVE CONTROLLERS-THEY BOTH CAME OUT AFTER 2001-THEY BOTH HAD GTA4 ON THE SAME DAYLOL AM I POPULAR NOW GUISE?
>>26552048>many fewerWeird, you usually don't see such stupidity this late on a school night. Oh wait, it's friday.
>>26552131lol troll 3/10
>>26552117PSP = Atari, NES, SNES, Genesis, Gameboy, GBC, GBA, PS1, N64, etcall in 1
I owned both a PS1 and an N^$, noone excpet fanboys can say the N64 was better. it only had a handful of good games compared to the many many many good PS1 game
>N^$>N^$
>>26551987You're right, your immense stupidity is pretty offensive.
>>26552256Funny, you usually don't see pathetic retards who desperately jump on minor grammatical errors when they can't refute actual points on /v/...Oh wait, it's a day ending in y.
>>26552369>N^$
>>26552369>a handful of good gamessee>>26552099That doesn't seem like a handfull to me.
>>26552437Did you have an actual point? It looked more like a general observation to me.
>>26552180Uhh, the PSX was more powerful
DC has better games than the ps3.
>>26552369>PS!
No company will ever be as awesome as Sega was
>>26552059Sony have sorted out all of those problems now, with the big exception of the price.
But the dreamcast was good...
>>26552495
>>26552482Oh, so you agree with me, just you have a problem with grammar that isn't up to /v/'s usual high caliber?
only trolls believe all this sony is dying bullshiti cant wait until 2009 and every kid is asking for a ps3 for christmas.
>>26552618>i cant wait until 2009
>>26552610>Avoiding to say retarded shit like "many fewer" is high caliber grammar
>>26552450he said good. most of the bullshit on that list sucked. n64 was mostly platformers, and anything else that came out for it was horrible to play because of that fucked up controller. ps1 had a much more diverse selection of games.
>>26552686i lol'd
>>26552689>Avoiding to sayyou could've done better
>>26552767>youYou could have also.
>>26552048>implying PS1 had superior hardware to N64Grainy jaggy low polygon count graphic is superior? Hahaha. Go back to bed kid.
>>26552767You could have put some punctuation.
>>26552817heh no
>>26552717>BAAAWWWW I DON'T KNOW HOW TO HOW THE N64 CONTROLLERIt is only hurting in the few minutes of gameplay, but after that, it's an amazing controller.
>>26552835>Implying any platform had amazing AA and high-res texture in the PS1 era.You need to wake up retard.
>>26552835Have fun with your 6mb games.
>PS3>more powerfulITT: delusion
People only whine about the N64 because it wasn't a disc based system. It wasn't "cool" to be using carts still.Enjoy your scratched and unplayable discs, as ll the PS systems are notorious for having shitty lenses.
>>26552941>hurtDamn why would you even play it if it hurt you Jesus Christ.And you still have not touched on the N64's lack of diversity in its games you butthurt faggot.
>>26552941yah, dick! that shit was FUCKING AWESOME to play fighters on. n64 and gc controllers were stupid playskool designs/quality. you KNOW you're a fanfag when you defend those 2.
>>26552978
>>26552944>Thinks that the PS1's graphics were the best they could do.See this motherfucker?This made the N64 the best console of all time, and game it the best graphics for it's time.
>>26551370>Why all the sony hate?Because Sony does nothing to help the industry at all.>Doesn't anyone remember the glory days of the ps1?You mean when the 3rd parties carried the PS1 to market share dominance over Nintendo? The PS1 wasn't my first system like it was for you, I am not blind by that nostalgia>I remember when the PS2 and the xbox came out, and everyone who had an xbox was a complete faggot.All I remember are gloating Sony fanboys who would troll whenever a new game gets announced exclusively for the PS2. >I guess the tides have turned.Karma's a bitch.
>>26552953Sure looked better than the PS1. I guess those disc only hold about one MB huh?
>>26553059A 360 could probably run thatIt runs at 720p and covers almost decent textures with blur
>>26552978Enjoy having to blow and lick cartridges to play.Enjoy not being able to run games like MGS1 and FF7.Enjoy your console not having any form of multimedia support.
>>26552989n64 was notorious for having no games
>>26553062Even without it the N64 was better graphically, the only difference being the size of the carts prohibited the developers to truly use the system's potential(that, and there was no point, the PS1 was selling better).
>>26552953Have fun with your loading screens.
>>26553062I'd repeat your post with a Cell processor and PS3 substituted for n64, but I'm feeling lazy.
>>26552941>I DON'T KNOW HOW TO HOW
>>26553090>>26553097You're butthurt is delicious.
I really can't wait for 15 years down the road when children born this year will argue that the PS3 "beat" the Wii as clearly the better system.
>>26553090>Enjoy having to blow and lick cartridges to play.That only happens if you don't know how to take care of your belongings, which sadly is most of /v/>Enjoy not being able to run games like MGS1 and FF7.MGS was a lost, FF7 not so much. And the trend of endless mediocre jrpgs wasn't miss as well>Enjoy your console not having any form of multimedia support.Heaven forbid a gaming system just plays game. You see, back in my days your consoles just played games.
How exactly did N64 have better graphics than PS1? I seem to remember the N64 having only solid colour textures in the majority of its games, I guess thats why it was smoother. PS1 actually tried to make games realistic and did quite well for the time. GT1 is a good example.
>>26553097Kind of like PS3
posting this again
Number of PS1 games with a combined score of 90 or higher: 30http://www.metacritic.com/games/playstation/scores/Number of Nintendo 64 games with a combined score of 90 or higher: 17http://www.metacritic.com/games/n64/scores/Number of Sega Dreamcast games with a combined score of 90 or higher: 15http://www.metacritic.com/games/dreamcast/scores/hope this helps your fighting, guys!!
>>26553210They were just better.That's all.Just look at Conker's Bad Fur Day and compare it to other games like MGS.
>>26553089The 360 has been around a year before the PS3, it's notoriously easier to develop for and still hasn't reached this level of quality. I hope you know graphics aren't just resolution.Also, no game has the scope of Resistance 2 on the 360, and MAG will only make the gap wider.I don't believe PC is the platform holding Huxley back...
PS3 doesn't have anything equal to sword of the Berserk
>>26553210>PS1 actually tried to make games realisticHeavily pixileted mess of models =/= realistic. The only games with decent characters were games with pre rendered backdrops.
>>26553153nah, man. back then, we all felt really sorry for the 64 owners. EVERY SINGLE ONE of my friends who fucked up and went n64 bought a psx, as well. it didn't work the other way around.
>>26553110After some time however, the Nsiddyfo was able to play some games that the PS1 needed two discs for.Case in point, RE2. The n64 version is vastly superior to the PS1 version. The only big pitfall for the N64 during that time was the lack of JRPG's. We had Quest 64, and Ogre Battle 64.Wait, That's a good thing, those two games where better than 95% of the JRPG's that Sony shoveled on to the PS1.
>>26553243>LOL I CARE ABOUT REVIEWSGodHand got shitty reviews, but it was an awesome game. Your argument is invalid.
>>26553210>realistic
>>26553268The DOF looks like shit.
>>26553268I hope you realize you have no fucking idea what you're talking about. Gears of War 2 alone looks better than anything besides KZ2, and that's without a 6 year development cycle that KZ2 got.Logical Fallacy 1: you assume that the 360 is incapable of doing this because no one foolishly spent 50-60million dollars and 6 years on a generic fps
>>26553266I seem to remember that had both a poor framerate and draw distance.
>>26553059I can't see anything in that gif it's too dark
>>26553307Then by your logic what constitutes a "good" game is completely subjective, and therefore makes it impossible to determine which system was "better" because everyone will have a different point of view.
>>26553307Godhand wasn't a good game.And there you go. On /v/, "hype" = "good".
>>26553361>Gears of War 2 alone looks better than anything
>>26553285N64's library was arguably better than the PS1's. Before you rage uncontrollably, quantity =/= quality.
>>26553191>back in my days PS1/N64 is pretty far back, dude. I'm sorry Nintendo was (and still is, actually) too backwards to add more value to its consoles.At least the DSi will play music in a single shitty format, right?
>>26553312I will now say to people that Runescape is a badass game; it's graphics are as awesome as Final Fantasy VII.
