Your oppinion of Sony
Just wondering what your oppinion of Sony is at the moment. For the record, I hate them with an undying passion at the time being. Here is a few reasons why.
1: They had to recall thousands of laptop batteries because of a tiny flaw (they kinda exploded and all) 2: They secretly installed rootkit on your computer. 3: crappy optical drives that users had to void the warranty just to fix 4: Suing Lik Sang out of business for selling Japanese PSP's (which were not selling well to begin with) to European gamers. oh yea, speaking of sales, the game to system ratio of sales says they are selling more PS3's than games (much more) basically implying most ppl are just buying it to resell it on eBay at a higher price. Yea, I hate Sony with a passion since that last one, any other oppinions (Maddox sums up my grievances quite nicely in one rant. http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse....=sony_bull**** So, what do you guys think of Sony (and not just in terms of gaming)

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
No, they are all Sony.
Look up some information. Also, try the one where Sony put copy protection on their CDs that installs spyware on your computer. |

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
I don't like their business practices, but I enjoy their gaming consoles.
PS2 was the best video gaming thing to happen to me. |

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
I hate Sony with a passion. I am not even a fan of their consoles. I am a fan of many of the games for their consoles, but the systems themselves are largely pieces of crap.
And Sony doesn't design ****, guys. Don't call them a video game designer. They got into the video game market by selling consoles that appealed to the largest market at the time, and because of that, they built up a large support from good third party developers. If Nintendo had gone to a disc-based format with the N64 instead of going with cartridges, I fully believe they'd still be on top.

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
I don't really care, but I consider the PS2 to be the best console since the SNES.

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
One of the reasons they took back the exploding laptops was a safety issue.
I mean, would you really like to keep a laptop that exploded? Not only that, if they do explode, Sony would get sued and I know they wouldn't like that. ~Tsugomaru |

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
I don't like Sony.
1. Computer technology sucks 2. Took the idea for motion sensor game controller tech from Nintendo. 3. Gran Turismo HD ( for the have to pay money for unlockables) And any other reason to hate them as well.

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
Sony with its playstations 1 and 2 have more of a balanced and wide range of games than any of the other system. They may not have the best marketing strategies, but they still have a good lead on most of their equipment. Also, didnt microsoft make the xbox because they knew it would appeal to more gamers? So how is microsoft very different from sony in the first place?
BTW, learn to spell before you post a thread. Opinion doesnt have to p's. Last edited by slipstrike0159; 11-15-2006 at 06:05 PM.. |

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
Nintendo and Microsoft consoles always seem to have a few nice games.
But the Sony consoles always manage to have a whole lot of them. For those who remember, the PS1 lasted even longer than the PS2 did, and the PS2 could play PS1 games, making it last even LONGER(than it would without it). Also, it could play DVDs, a useful utility that everyone could use. It could hook up to the internet, unlike the Nintendo. It also had many great games rather than just a few, unlike the Xbox. |

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
There's a difference between overlooking some faulty code and releasing a product that has the potential to KILL PEOPLE, or at the very least cause serious wounds and destroy said computer. That's kind of a big oversight. That'd be like including razorblades in the middle of Snickers bars.
Also, that IS why Microsoft entered the playing field. However, they did it with the intention of appealing to the GAMER. Sony entered the field with the PS1 using CD format more or less to appeal to third party developers, who at this point have more or less access to everything they could want as far as power of a particular system goes. Upping the stakes by leaping to Blu-Ray isn't going to be their boon this time. I hope it'll be their downfall, but it's ****ing Sony we're talking about here, so it's not like they're going away any time soon. Sony's success has very little to do with they themselves. It's purely because they jumped in the video game market at an opportune time when Nintendo decided to stick with an out-moded, expensive, restrictive media type and in the process alienated their strongest supporters (like Square, for example.)

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
I'd say that Nintendo will be the first one to go out of any of them. Sony's my favorite, but I'll have to say it'd go second.
Microsoft, well... One man in Microsoft could probably give a dollar to everyone on the world. They're staying a little while. |

Re: Your oppinion of Sony
just get two Play Station 3s and you could've bought a used car, lawl trick some rich sap in buying them. Dunno who would fall for that, but there are a lot of gullible people.
On my wish list: I'd get Wii first and then XBox360 at least xbox360 had more games to it by the time PS3 came out, but ehhh, i'd still rather get Wii. :3
