PS3 your paying for Potential!

To the Stringer man


So apparently now HS stated that you are paying for the potential in the PS3. Great strategy there sony!

What potential might that be?

" Potential counts for nothing until it is realised"

So it' s not the blu-ray player we are paying for... but the potential?..

Now imagine everyone was like that...

Nintendo and M$ would charge for their next 3 consoles because they have the
" potential" . So why not charge for that potential in the 360 and Wii?!..

Sony has gone past annoying, and I don' t think their main corporate bodies
actually talk to each other..

I still wanna work for Sony..

There are two rules to success:

1. Never tell all you know.

Those WHO dont appreciate POTENTIAL will never understand it.

I SEE it as an investment but to be honest if it turns out i dnt have the money by launch then i not gonna rob a bank or end my life. CHANCES are ill just by the console.

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

You' ll just buy the console with the money you don' t have?!

Dude, how old are you?

So apparently now HS stated that you are paying for the potential in the PS3. Great strategy there sony!

I seriously don' t get where Sony is going with this. I mean, it' s a stupid comment that can easily be taken the wrong way. Why even bother saying it?!

Stringer slipped up in an interview a couple of weeks ago and said he was obsessed with Xbox 360. I don' t understand what Sony is up to because a multi-national company like Sony don' t make this many schoolboy errors.

This Gaiden BLACK (like you could possibly complete that game) is why Sony is getting so much critism. We' re not willing to sit back and kiss Sony' s ass like you. We want to know why the market leader keeps embarrassing itself and it' s userbase.

What are you trying to day Majik trying to be funny again.

I said that if im able to buy the PS3 ill probably just get the console, but i always said that life wouldnt end if i coudnt get one.

UNDERSTAND

Hehee.

You know you giving me some of them chicken wings..

Gaiden BLACK, have you completed NG Black yet?

To be honest i dont give a shit about how much stupid stuff SONY say because at the end of the day if a game on PS3 comes out that i like im gonna get it regardless THATS if the money is there.

im NOT kissing no SONY' s ass itz just I DONT really care PLAIN and SIMPLE

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

Not yet

NO longer have a xbox BUT I like the style of the game and just cnt really be arsed to complete it.

You see it as an investment, but if it turns out that by launch you don' t have the money, then you' re not going to attempt to get enough money for the machine by say robbing a bank, and you also won' t kill yourself because your life is worth more to you and killing yourself would be dumb.

So, after you' ve said that, why go on to say that you' ll probably just buy the console?! I mean, if you don' t have the money by launch as you previously stated is a possibility, then you WON' T be able to buy the console on day one.

You said everything you needed to say in the original paragraph.



Where are you from Gaiden?!

Oh and i love your signature....

KILLZONE inGAME u better believe it.....

...but you know it wasn' t right?

MAJIK are you really that BRAIN DEAD and unable to understand sum1 unless THEY DUMB it down so much.

AND i went on to JUST say that ill be only getting the console at launch. SORRY I DIDNT break up the paragraph it was JUST another comment. SO STOP trying to be a SMART ass this aint no ENGLISH forum.

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

SO STOP trying to be a SMART ass this aint no ENGLISH forum.

Are those words in CAPS for a reason?!

Also, you never answered my question about the Killzone trailer not being real. You know it wasn' t ingame right?! If so, then why when you didn' t know whether the signatures were enabled or not (they' re not) would you write that?

finally BACK to talking about games

YES i put that signature there because that KILLZONE 2 TRAILER shown at e3 2005 was USING THE Guerrilla Games engine.

i wasnt sure about it myself at first but IT was finally confirmed by my LECTURER who spoke to an employee at E3 last year.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Classic!

it´s really weird to listen to sony directors and fanboys talking about how PS3 is best because it´s the most powerful next-gen console and how graphics matter and all.

but when xbox came out it was more than 3 times more powerful than ps2 and had a hard drive in it (no memory cards needed and faster loadings) and at that time igot sick of listening sony directors and fanboys just going saying " nevermind the potential...it´s all about games man"

so screw you sony and your freaking potential....this time i´ll go with the " it´s all about games" talk

so screw you sony and your freaking potential....this time i´ll go with the " it´s all about games" talk

Right now, and right until Christmas, Microsoft will be playing Ludacris feat Mystikal - Move Bitch right outside Sony' s window.

" Get out the way, get out the way bitch, get out the way!

OH NO!

The fights out.... I' m ' bout to punch your..... LIGHTS out!"

i hope that comes true

Damm u GUYS really have somethign againist SONY dont ya?

i see the potential of GAMES coming on the sony CONSOLE

blu ray = bigger and better GAMES (thats potential)

some peeps say they are gonna wait and see thats a great idea and but theres no problem if they decide to buy it ON RELEASE day if they believe there gonna see a difference in games straight away.

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

Ok, and so realistically; what do you think?

i dnt think we' ll see the best straight away but im not gonna go laugh at sum1 who buys it believing that the games that they are gonna get on release are gonna be different frm last gen.

Oh they' ll be a huge improvement over PS2 and Xbox games, but they won' t be like the Killzone and MotorStorm CG' s from last years E3.

Heavenly Sword as i' ve said previously is a game that i have huge hopes for. It' s just a shame it won' t make launch.

Fatal Inertia is going to be bad. That' s been obvious since it' s announcement. SingStar doesn' t interest me as doesn' t EyeToy in it' s current form and Resistance looks like a let down. The inevitable sports games and quick ports will suck and until Heavenly Sword is released they won' t have any impressive titles.

Ofcourse, DMC4 or other significant Japanese deleoped games could be announced a launch titles at TGS in September, but we haven' t seen anything of them so far so it' s unlikely.

Thats true there hasnt been anything AMAZING shown for launch, but lets be honest this time next year there will be. EVEN in the next 2 years the amount of quality to come is really exiciting especially for sum1 who believes in the POTENTIAL of ps3 frm the start.

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

No doubt, but it' s naive to think that just because Sony has done it twice already they can do it a third time.

Ofcourse Sony will do well, but a lot of people are pissed that they' re being forced to pay for Blu-Ray when many don' t even have HDTV' s. Sure Blu-Ray has potential for games, but it' s not going to be realised any time soon.

Sony keep making themselves look like idiots. It' s probably a good thing that people also know that it' s the games that sell Sony' s machines and not the machines themselves. Perhaps Sony should take note of that and focus more on their games.

I think SONY will focus on the games but at the same time there next gen machine has to be able to compete with the competiton. Thats why they have things like blu ray, it may not be fair but at the end of they day with mircosoft and SOny itz all business. ITZ NEVER REALLY ABOUT THE passion of making GAMES

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

Whilst I am not particularly marvelled by the PS3, I do understand why people
would buy it... Again mostly fanboys...

I liken this situation to the way I will buy Shenmue 3 if they release it.. I don' t know
jack about the game, but I AM going on the reputation of the experience that
the game has given me, be it one I like or don' t like.
One thing I don' t do is attack SOny fanboys for liking the console, I just want
to find out why, and if all they can say is PS3 is the best with no substance, then
don' t say anything.

If someone says they don' t like Shenmue, I can accept reasons why, but if they
say it is crap for NO reason, then shut up. What I have found is that
Sony fanboys tend to be insecure about the products so they blindly attack in
rage!

You guys HOPE the PS3 will be everything it is cranked up to be, and you pray
that Sony bypass the bullsh!t they have been spewing and deliver

Some people have grown up on Playstation, and only know Playstation so I can see
why they would go for the PS3.

Now, the only thing that is annoying me about people that buy the PS3 is when
they see Sony lying to them boldly. The deficit of difference between E32k6 and
E32K5 being one example, but hey, some people like to be cheated out of their
product.

I respected Kutaragi up until now, where before he said:

PS3 will be expensive.

You' ll have to work to earn your PS3.

Fair enough, whilst they are ludicrous statements, they are honest.

Now:

PS3 will have twice the power of 360.

It is a computer.

Those 2 statements alone made me lose respect. There are more, but I feel those
2 are enough.

Most people that are media smart about the industry will get the PS3 for one reason
and that is they are Hardcore

So, I know there is always at least one fanboy every month but, you can
understand he just wants to defend the reputation of his console/company.

I would probably feel the same way about Shenmue, but as soon as Sega start
vomiting bullsh*t about the game and how it will make your tea and walk your dog,
I am officially no longer a Shenmue fan.

There are two rules to success:

1. Never tell all you know.

I really think the PS3 does seem to have lots of potential and if you buy a console at launch you can' t really buy it for any other reason than potential.
I don' t buy consoles at launch because I want to play the launch titles and then never play that console again. I think of the future, what more will the console bring me? That' s what potential is about and that' s why I think he used the word potential. The PS3 looks very unimpressive with bad/lacking launch games and the high price and other issues but if you see the potential of the future then you get interested again.
No launch games? Who cares, there' s potential for more games in the future.
High price? Who cares, it' s a long term investment.
Hard to develop for? Who cares, the console has potential that will be seen once the developers learn the hardware.
The PS3 really is all about potential so I see why a word like that was used.
However, I do think that the 360 and, especially, the Wii has even more potential. So the PS3 can go to hell!

YES i put that signature there because that KILLZONE 2 TRAILER shown at e3 2005 was USING THE Guerrilla Games engine.

I hope you know by now that it wasn' t in-game. That' s 100% proved.

People can SAY they dnt like sumthing and not really give a reason at the end of the day thats their opinion idoit or not. I MEAN i might give you reason WHY SHENMUE is the biggest piece of SISINA shit ive ever played, but the reason might be the most stupid one and so u dont agree.

juST LET them be

To be honest if ps3 didnt have blu ray and was still priced that high then i might be a little pissed (not really). The fact that Blu ray is in there is way itz soo expensive so really what peeps shud be doing is stop bitching about it and accept it.

Nuthing is perfect (expect ZOE 2)

theres alot of people out THERE who listen to sum of the FUNNIEST piece of bullshit that SONY say and still arent really bothered by it (ME BEING ONE) so really itz done to the person if they wanna BITCH.

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

To be honest if ps3 didnt have blu ray and was still priced that high then i might be a little pissed (not really).

if it still was high priced and no blu-ray (which you said it was one of many wonderful reasons to buy a PS3.

so even if sony was kicking you in nuts would you still say " yes...i want a PS3." ? or " make it more expensive... i will still buy it" ?

if so then you have a real problem man....

Ps3 cost a lot more money thanks to blu-ray,thats why,you' re not gonna get a better console in terms of graphics,but you gonna get a console that can play blu-ray movies.

If you think that is potential...then allright.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

so even if sony was kicking you in nuts would you still say " yes...i want a PS3." ? or " make it more expensive... i will still buy it" ?

I don' t think PS3 is as bad as a kick in the nuts.lol

As painful as it is to pay for that, there' s a nice bandaging kit of hi-def in their
to sooth the sting, for those early adopters..

There are two rules to success:

1. Never tell all you know.

Yes,there is no one denying ps3 is gonna be a next gen console with awesome graphic and games.

However their PR Team likes to spit lies about it being stronger then it is.
ANd they charge a lot more money adding lies in why it cost a lot more.
Its thanks to selling movieplayers that they gonna charge you more money.
But they would never be honest and say that.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

What people like Gaiden BLACK fail to understand is that Sony have openly stated that they aren' t so much concerned with their status in the videogame world as they are with their place in the next-gen media format war.

Sony KNOW Blu-Ray isn' t needed for games. They also KNOW that including Blu-Ray in PS3 is the quickest way to get ahead of HD-DVD. If Sony can win the DVD format war then they stand to make more money from Blu-Ray movies and associated technologies than they ever would with games.

if they put a popcorn machine instead of blu-ray then i would definitly buy it right way

hidemoto to salesman " what? 600$?...give me 2 please"

It makes sense now why sony would push back their br player yet again a) to keep their costs down until they' re finished with the ps3 production and or b) to make the ps3 look cheap in comparison to the hd-dvd players to non-gamers.

It' s true popcorn is a medium that stays the same, so its only a choice
between Butterkist, toffee, sugar and salt. Great STuff!

Movies all look the same...

But popcorn... Wooh.. Talk about sales perks!

1. Never tell all you know.

well...about PS3´s price...

it´s no surprise that it´s so high since all other sony products are usually more expensive than other brands...for example: tvs or cd-players

but this time around there´s also another great product in the market (360) but cheaper...

so they say " there´s a lot of potential in PS3" ...yeah there is...space shuttles also have potential but not everyone has it

I just feel that this: http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/comic.php?d=20051104
is how Sony is treating their customers. I know it' s probably very old, and I don' t know if the online infrastructure argument is still valid, but this perfectly sums up my thoughts.
