the worst part of it is listen to the way he says "PS3 is teh doomed"
his face painfully distorts as he poors all his hate and malis into the words.

Watched the first 30 seconds of that. It's all spin. Can't be bothered with the rest.

"The PS2 is outselling is PS3 in Japan".

That's one spin on it, another would be:

"The PS3 outsold nearly a year of 360 sales in only a month"

Sad... Either spin would be sad. Just the facts, mam.

In a way it's good as it makes Sony work harder.

That looks like a html/php falsifying job. Anyone could have done that with basic save as and html editing skills. Unless there is solid proof Gamespot ever posted such a news other than that page hosted on tripod servers and not on any of the news.com servers. I think we should check that under pranks.

It's true that PS3 is in third right now, though, guys. Don't deny that.

Speculation is one thing, but you don't have to use "PS3 IS DOOMED" as your headline to get across that you think Sony will lose their crown this gen.

Fanboy attacks and defenses are both silly rubbish, and the ass of the internet. When this attitude is displayed even by so called "Videogame Journalists", it's very sad. Before you know it, there'll have to be an "Anti-Mudslinging" ammendment for the internet.

The press is just callin' it like they see it. If or when the PS3 starts dominating and the good games are rolling out they'll sing it's praises. It's a matter of time, the FUD comes with the territory and you all should really just take it in stride. Is the PS3 a failure? No. But I don't know if you've ever watched the news, FUD questions are headlines and that's how they get people to watch.
"Could you be eating poison and not know it? Find out at 11."
I say, 'meh.'

I'm saying, that's how you get people to watch the news. And G4, in case no one noticed, is a pile of crap now, and really isn't worth watching. Uh DUHHHH. It's really too soon to start calling any losers at this point. I like the guy from Geek, 'we really should be having this discussion a year from now'.

My only problem is the segments don't get the full picture. They only get the negative. But then like I said, that's the news business. The good news bad news ratio is like 9:1

The general consensus 'round the block' is, "I want a PS3, just waiting for the better games to come out for it/price to drop. One of those, sometimes both (if the person doesn't have a job).

They're gunning for the lowest common denominator.

They used to do a really good show called "Icons" about gaming industry figures, that was good. Bet they don't do that now.

LaLiLuLeLo
02-06-2007, 11:19 PM
I miss that show. When it is on it's reruns.

It's all about perception. Because I could take the same story and spin it about how the PS2 is crushing everyone (maybe not wii? dunno) still, getting the road ready for PS2. Perception is everything. Just the same they took the PS2 selling well as bad news for PS3. Whatever.

Applefiend
02-06-2007, 11:21 PM
Quite obviously the PS2/PSP selling well is bad news for Sony, you crazed Sonybot!

^What he said... :cheers:
I don't take this stuff so personally you guys are acting like he was talking about your mama... :tardbang:

I actually agree with comments regarding lack of Bluray movies and games, but that's expected with a new format & new console. I think some media outlets and hardcore gamers have unrealistic expectations... It's way too early to call the PS3 a failure. :duh:

It came out 2 months ago jackass. Xbox 360 when it launched? Some previous gen ports and Perfect Dark Zero. And that was it until march when GRAW came out. People need to relax.

They can talk all they want. My prediction stands. By end of 07 its going to be a completely different picture across both sales and media. Not to mention the proof that will show ps3 is indeed a more powerful console. I said it 6 months ago and I stick by it.

They said the same at PS3's launch, you people who live outside the states are lucky. We see and hear a lot more FUD that you are. What the hell happened to love playing games? Every single day i see same crap, Sony is doomed or stupid rumor of a lost exclusive. This society will degrade real gamers and convert them into dumb fanboys with one thing on their mind. Trash other brand and protect yours, they don't care about games anymore it becomes a disease with no cure.

I am going to laugh my ass of till I piss my pants with glee when the have to swallow those words. Those fools don't even see it coming. They can talk all the shit they want, but once the PS3 is cheaper and all he good games have come and continue coming, it will slaughter the competition. But that is just my two cents about a clearly superior machine....

BTW, who REALLY watches G4 away? They are losers with no talent. And those ever Microsoft loving turds are going to supa pissed when they are proven wrong.:duh:

Meh.

Attack of the Show is of no importance in the grand scheme, or any scheme at all. They resort to propaganda like this for ratings..

Ratings that they'd secure if they had anything worth watching.

Failure is a strong word for a console thats only been out since November. Lack of games this early doesn't= failure. Slow start...yes. Failure? No.

So, didn't 360 had it's killer app a full 12 months after it launched?, did the PS3 launched November 2005?, aren't good games coming out in march?, Isn't G4 a joke of a network these days?

I know you guys love using the FUD tag but media (print, online broadcast) has been FUD'ing the 3rd place console for over a decade.

We got the same shit with, "Is the the N64/DC/PS2/GC/Xbox/DS/PSP a failure?"

The media reports on the current state of affairs and they did no differently here.
