Is it me, or the blog sites/website have general bias against PS3. I know definitely for sure www.kotaku.com is very pro MS, more like a lap dog for MS. So only coverage of PS3 is anti-PS3 article and MS quotes about PS3. No worthwhile PS3 article. I thought Joystiq was neutral, but I do not see any decent PS3 coverage for E3, its all about 360 and Wii. gamespot.com has been good, PS3.ign.com has decent coverage, but I feel I got more information from here than PS3.ign.com.
I would like to know what other feel. I definitely would like to boycott Kotaku and Joystiq for their anti PS3. How about this forum starting a blog for PS3, XBD? I would like to see a blogsite that does talk about PS3 in positive light and only about PS3, no talk about or compare with 360 or Wii. Not like all the pro-xbox site which are more worried about their competition than about their products? Trash talking their competitor product...

www.psinext.com That is our Sony site. Blogs don't have a very good credibility rating to begin with so I wouldn't suggest you search them for news.

Kotaku is pretty much Pro-PS2 then Anti-PS3. So basically everything but PS3, it's actually the entire Gawker network that's anti-PS3 which is why I stopped reading them. Engadget and Joystiq :)

Yeah Kotaku coverage pretty much seems as if PS3 is the black plauge. I have to give credit to Joystiq though, they have been pretty neutral from what ive seen so far.

btw Who else thinks Kotakus new layout looks like crap?

Everyone wants to take down the king...
Just like everyone loves an underdog, that's why nintendo is getting so much love. Also, I do have to say Nintendo seems very sincere with the "it's all about the games" vibe...

Do you have any idea how many sites are considered pro Sony on MS boards.

This goes both ways.

True, it goes both ways, but I am basing it on the blog written on Kotaku & Joystiq. After SONY pre-E3 conference, the blog written in Kotaku was MS dismisses SONY statement and not bothered. But no blog about SONY conference. For me pretty much that summed it up. Also one can search kotaku to see how many articles are there for PS3... Oh yes and also if xbox management sneezes, there would be blog in kotaku...

Im not familiar with Kotaku but instead of spear heading pro MS sites lets just attack every damn bias sight on the internet.

Pari, it's a blog. Nothing against the people that run them but if you want news go to a real website. Blogs tend to be far more bias than news web sites.
