No, my sentence was not poorly worded; the only thing that is quite possibly poor is your reading comprehension. :rolleyes
I said, "You argue reasons to buy a PS3 are all these games that have yet to be released...so when is the last time someone argued a reason to buy a 360 is the price drop this fall?" in response to, "For instance, it's 'stupid' for me to say 'In July' there are good games coming out, becuase everyone pretends that 'July' is a 'long ways away'. Yet it's 'fine' to say the 360's price will drop 'in a few months' yet a 'few months' is in freaking NOVEMBER. Somehow it's wrong for me to say ONE MONTH isn't that far away, yet 6 months is 'a few'."
Do you realize how stupid that point is? If I am correct, you are trying to say: no one should be burning on you for saying "a good reason to buy a PS3 is for the games are going to be coming out in a month or two," while they themselves are saying "the 360 price drop is going to come in a few months."
Why is this stupid? Well for one it is made up, as no one is "pretending" these games are any further out than they really are. Most people simply look at what is CURRENTLY AVAILABLE, while you talk about these games like they are already sitting on retail shelves. Secondly, it is a completely dumb and irrelevant analogy, as they do not correspond with each other at all, nor is the 360's price drop a reason people are using to warrant purchase of the 360. Do you get my point yet? :bash
And for the last time, I KNOW the other systems are not perfect either. The only difference is that I have 3 systems right now, and two of them actually make me feel as if I have received my money's worth(hint: the PS3 is not one of the two). I have COMPLETELY acknowledged the fact that Nintendo has an extremely poor excuse for online at this point. I praise the Wii for other things besides online, like the fact that it has already been graced by what I would consider TWO "system sellers" while the PS3 is still sitting at zero. Does the fact that the Wii has no online change the fact that PSN still pales in comparison to XBL? No.
I have also SAID MYSELF that MS should give you more for your money, or at least price cut what a gold membership costs for XBL. But seriously, what other "services" offer better feature sets? PSN? You've got to be joking.
Please find when I said the PS2 was garbage? I loved my PS2, I own over 20 games for the damn thing. The laser was a pretty big problem at one point, as 4 of my friends had to send in their PS2s to get them fixed. I fortunately never encountered this problem. I believe you yourself have even acknowledged the fact that the build quality of the PS2 was not up to par. But please, find me a statistic from a reliable source that shows the 360 has had more trouble than the PS2. Also, I have never "ignored" the build quality of the PS3, but in actuality praised the thing for some of the features Sony included (i.e. shutting itself off if it is in danger of overheating).
I also never said the PSP was a failure, far from if you look at the sales numbers alone. But compared to the DS it is a failure, as it lacks compelling software. Unless you like playing crappy PS2 ports, the PSP does not really serve for much. Movies? UMD was a failure. Music? Got an iPod. Games? Rather buy a DS.
The Wii IS a great console. Despite its drought of games, and again, I have said it is just as bad as the PS3, yet it did not cost me HALF AS MUCH and has a few things the PS3 does not. Granted there is no Blu-Ray player, it has two games that virtually ANYONE can literally pick up and play, and have immediate fun with. Please name a few games on the PS3 that can do the same. The Wii also has two system sellers at this point, which is two more than the PS3 has. Be as sarcastic as you want about Paper Mario and Zelda, but the truth is that they are both better games than anything the PS3 has to offer. And let me remind you once more, it costs $350 less.
No one is overlooking shortcomings besides you. I have acknowledged the weaknesses of the 360 and Wii, yet whenever a weakness is brought up about the PS3 you get super defensive and throw a fit. I do not have a bias, I just feel ripped off. If I pay 600 fucking dollars for a system, it better feel like I got $600 worth out of it. And at this point it feels like it is worth maybe half of that.
Also, the Wii is more powerful than a GC, and you know this. Now you are just twisting the truth to undercut the Wii even more. And no, you just answered your own question. If I am getting MORE AND BETTER games for a system that costs $350 less, Sony should probably re-evaluate their price point. The Wii also has backwards compatability with ANY GC game, while the PS3's is limited. The Wii also has internet and downloads. But yeah, just keep labeling it as "waggling" a controller, because if it was only that I guarantee the Wii would not be selling like hot cakes.
You contradict yourself all the time, and the above post really reveals your true colors. For someone who has bragged about how much they think the PSP is a piece of crap, you sure defended it just now for who knows what reason, and for someone who admitted the PS2 had terrible build quality, you again just defended it, UNPROVOKED. :hehe Add that on top of the fact that you are in love with a system that is not worth the price of admission, and it seems you have a love for anything Sony while viewing anything and everything else as inferior. My own view is that the PS3 is a very powerful machine with some awesome games in the works, but as of RIGHT NOW, still fails to feel like it gives me my money's worth.
The bottom line is that you only see what you want to. I have acknowledged everything you just said, yet you frequently say I "ignore" all these things that I have actually said myself. You twist my words, as there is a big difference between me saying "the PS3 has no games" and "the PS3 does not have enough outstanding exclusives to warrant purchase." People view you as arrogant, because as you again just displayed, you view everything from a biased angle and consider any opinion different from your own as automatically wrong.
