At IGN I was reading up on the 360 and PS3 making my decision on which to buy with my saved money I recently came up on this article http://ps3.ign.com/articles/710/710702p1.html
it has alot of intresting points concerning Nintendo and Sony here is one I found funny and very true

"When [Sony] brought PlayStation to the market in 1994, we introduced real-time graphics in 3D for the first time," Harrison commented. "When Nintendo released N64 in 1996 and it also used real-time 3D graphics, did we say: 'Nintendo stole our idea!?' No, of course not! Such innovations are made possible because of the combination of technology, cost and manufacturing capacity."

Anyway I think the PS3 is a great machine. It is by far the most powerful of the 3 consoles (Wii and 360) It is a promising systeam, once it gets on its feet and gets past launch I think we will see many titles that make it a great systeam. The only flaw I see in the PS3 is --------> > >> > > > 600$ Ouch!!!

Oh and a list of Games the PS3 will have >>http://ps3.ign.com/articles/618/618430p1.html

lol someone hasnt paid attention then. that was the prototype controler, the controller that will be sold with it looks just like the DualShock/DualShock2

(except it cant be called DualShock3 cuz there is no shock since it has no rumble anymore! :lol: )
 
Translation of the OP's quote: "We didn't whine when you did it to us, so take your legion of immature fanboys who whine we we do it to you and shove them."
 
Did nintendo proclaim themselves innovative when doing the same thing as the competition?

In any case, sega saturn also had 3d graphics, and launched before either of the other two consoles.

Did the N64 originally plan to use 2-d graphics exclusively, then switch to 3-d after seeing Sony's success with 3-d gameplay?

And as Zak said, Harrison totally neglects to mention the sega saturn, which was the FIRST console to feature 3D graphics.

It's an attempt by Sony to save face. No more, no less.

Did sony plan on not using any motion sensing, but then add it in after seeing nintendo's revelation?

It cannot be said with certainty.

True, but if certainly makes me suspicious considering Sony's track record.

Anyone remember the PSone controller before Nintendo announced it's N64 controller would feature an analog control stick and a rumble add-on?
 
I smell Fanboys. Anyway I don't feel like fighting over the issue right now cause I belive that all the next gen console a great in one way or another. PS3 is a hugly powerful systeam with the reputation and game to get to the top again. Wii is a remake of those old helmets that were "virtual reality" and were motion sensitive, but instead of the helmet Nintendo took the idea and succeseded with it by only making only the controller motion sensitive (Face it nintendo fanboys it really is an old idea just being refreshed by technology) Wii is cool but not a new idea. Xbox 360 is an upgraded Xbox with some bells and whistles that make it look shiny and inviting. The 360 does however have a couple titles that are great games and sould make an impact on the gaming world.
Like I said each console has something about it that puts it apart from the others right now I would say that Nintendo fanboys are just digging up excuses and flaming Sony becuase of it domance over the gaming world the last 2 conosle wars, as Nintendo slipped Sony was raised to the top get over it, it is called bussiness. *Prepares to be flamed with irrelavent comments by fanboys*
And hey Nintendo fans look at it this way Sony most likely may not win this console war...........
Microsoft will
 
With halo:lol:


Don't diss the Xbox(or 360). They do have some really good games, but I don't have a PS1/2/3:frown:

Personally I don't see how the 360 stands out above ps3. It just seems like a weaker, cheaper version.

I agree but since it did launch earliest and since most American gamers are only obessed with shooting each other with flashy graphics (Halo) they will jump for the Xbox360 becuase it is cheaper (For obvious Tech reasons) and the fact that Halo 3 is coming out for it yeah!!!!!!
 
Wasn't the first post in this topic rather 'fanboyish'? =/

In the end, all it matters is the quality of the games and the entertainment you derive from them. The percieved 'console war' is essentailly a marketing ploy.

I don't really care who is/isn't a fanboy, the label doesn't effect the enjoyment I get from playing whatever game on whatever system. What I can't stand is when certain individuals take what company execs. (or message-board fanboys for that matter =P) say in some press conference as the complete truth.
 
If we can't belive the Execs. who can we belive? What Miayamoto lied to me?????? (srry for the terrible mispell) LoL J/K I get what you are saying Weedler and I agree that it comes down to the games which really is a hard choice becuase each console has there very good and exclusive games. Choose gamers choose!!!!!!
 
Which is the reason I've usually played a mix of Nintendo and PS games over the years, just because there are good games for each and I don't really feel any brand loyalty or blind fanboyism to either label. I consider the PS2 controller to be better than the GCN's but that's about it as far as blatantly favouring one over the other for me. It's not a case of Sony "ripping off" Nintendo, it's a case of Sony getting in on a new technology which Nintendo just so happened to try first.

There is no excuse for the Xbox though. Microsoft needs to stick to making games for the computer, a system which will in the end always wind up overpowering consoles in terms of graphical ability and memory/speed/etc. I figure I'm allowed to detest at least one system, all things considered. :tongue:
 
Most powerful doesnt make a console.

More power or not, it hasnt shown any new and unique games worth playing for it, so far we are introduced to the same old crap from PS1 and PS2, Ie: MGS, FF.

Well, that's one way to see it. We can't really know what actually happened behind the scenes.

Also, I'm not really sure what your problem with xbox is. First of all, I'm under the impression that MS itself makes no games at all (like sony; unlike nintendo) so that whole train of thought seems invalid. As for the bit about comps overpowering consoles, I don't see how that doesn't apply to the other consoles as well... Except, PC's don't generally have 3d motion sensing, or tilt sensing for that matter.

Okay, well it still applies to the previous generation.

same old crap huh.. Reminds you of Nintendo a little huh with their Mario and the Zelda (Great games but used over and over) it is the same stuff just new so I wouldn't play the old crap card here pal. Every systeam has it's staples get used to it.

it isnt just a marketing ploy. it is the amount of market share any one company can gain, and ultimately how much money they can make. thats what the console wars are, its all about the benjamins baby :thumb:
