Spartan_X Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Sony CEO: PS3 games are infinitely more fun, demanding and exciting than Wii The CEO of Sony, Howard Stringer, recently commented that the is happy the Wii is running into a shortage of hardware problems as the PS3 will come into its own as its high end games are infinitely more fun, demanding and exciting. quote: "I'm glad that the last few weeks have generated excitement about PlayStation 3," Stringer said. Everyone's stopped talking about it the way they were six months ago. "I'm happy that the Wii seems to be running a bit short of hardware ... the PlayStation 3 will come into its own because its [high-end games] are infinitely more fun and demanding and exciting.

Swordnyx Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 "Apples are infinitely more delicious than pears because they come in red, yellow and green!"Some ****ed up logic if you ask me. I would've said oranges instead of pears lol. Being an all time Sony-fan, owning the original PS, PS2 "Fat", and the PSP "Fat", I have to say the PS3 saddens me. I expected much better from Sony and thought it would conquer the VG industry as it did with the PS2. Since I found out the PS3 sucks I decided, of course, not to get one. X360 is much better than the PS3, and it's just sand to see Sony in such a bad shape. As for Wii.. it's not really what I'd call a videogame console, as it is more... interactive?

shakey Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 i think consumers really need to just stop buying products from companies that prove over and over again that if it wasnt for the brand name, they wouldnt have the know-how to ever really succeed. They treat everyone, even their own consumers, like they are all retarded. If you choose to support them, eh, i guess the whole arguement is pretty futile.

+.Vamp Subscriber² Posted December 13, 2007 Subscriber² Share Posted December 13, 2007 I'm not trying to sound nasty here or take a shot at you Spartan, but is this really worth posting? Sure if the Sony CEO had said something really bad about the wii, or made big false claims, but all he's done here is what anyone in the world would expect him to do; Praise his companies product. That's part of his job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CelticWhisper Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Thanks, Howard, but I'll decide on my own what games I find most fun. Currently the DS is pretty much whomping the competition in the fun-factor arena, at least by my standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to say that the xbox or wii have been perfect, far from it (like how long it took Msoft to do something about the high failture rates) but the PS3 has been the worst of the three. Don't shoot the messenger! I'm not trying to sound nasty here or take a shot at you Spartan, but is this really worth posting?

troist Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I thought Sony had realised this kind of PR gave off a negative impression and stopped it :( Clearly I was mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kak Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I have both a PS3 and Wii, and my PS3 is infinitely more fun when I play the MP sections of games. Thats just me though. I have Mario Galaxy as well, but have yet to play it. It may be infinitely more fun than any RPG/Platformer than the PS3 may offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The question people quite rightly asked was if the PS3 was going to get through this early cycle ... I feel much more confident about that now." That's true for me, and probably will be for most "hardcore" gamers. I'll take the likes of Mass Effect, Bioshock, COD4, Halo 3 over Zelda, Mario, MP3 anyday. Not to say I don't like the Wii games, but "high-end" games are better suited to my gaming tastes. PR will never be 100% liked by everyone.... If you dumb your console down, your scared, have no commitment, and have "lost" already. If you build your console up your arrogant, blind, making false claims/promises. If you remain silent, you've lost your job in PR :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spenser.d Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Wait, so Sony is endorsing their console?!? Everyone, stop the presses, this is major news! A company is saying good things about its products! Everyone else stop the presses! There's a clueless guy in Isle #22... The problem doesn't lie in him endorsing his product, it lies in the way he goes about it - acting as if it's proven fact that his product is better in the face of millions of people who've experienced otherwise. He'd have been much better off starting that sentence with "I think ..." -Spenser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundayx Veteran Posted December 13, 2007 Veteran Share Posted December 13, 2007 If he doesn't say it, no one else will say it. He's actually doing good for the company. I don't see why everyone's criticizing his words. You can say that he's wrong or what not, but hey, the future of the console lies in his hands.
