With a bad e3 showing,high price for the console,specualted extreme high price for the games,specs changing in a negative way from last years e3 to this one and a laundry list of dissapointing news swirling around Sony's new console i was wondering what it would take to keep a sony fan from purchasing the console?
P.S im not trying to start anything just seems like a whole lot of bad things going on and the ps3 takes a lickin but its fans keep tickin...

lol, funny topic, I suppose nothing can stop me at least, anyway the xbox 360 is only an xbox 1.5, an add-on, the ps3 is more a revolution, you a a personnal computer in it.
in order:
-bad e3, I think the baddest was M$ because they just showed halo 3 and gears of war
-high price? wtf, it's the same as xbox360 :S I mean, the ps3 core is the exact same thing as the premium x360. no wireless network, HD of 20gig, no HDMI but HD conponnents, no media card reader, and it's the same price, the core ps3 let you play like the xbox 360 premium let you play, and the ps3 have a blue-ray player inside...
-high priced games, yeah that's bad, but The future xbox360 games will have the same price ex: gears of war
-news and specs... I dunno, the specs now are better than the x360's specs anyway, so why bother, anyway at this point you won't be able to tell witch one is the best, at least not from the 1st gen games.
-finally, square-enix are with sony and I'm a RPG FAN, I know mistwalker is doing great games on the x360, but 2 games... I suppose when the x360 will cost less, I'll buy one too. ( in a loong time )
to me, the only way to keep me from buying a ps3 is the money... if I don't have enough, but for worse, I'll just buy it later :S. I suppose it's because we are loyals from the ps1 ( was soo good ) and the ps2 ( SOOO much better than anything for now ), So surely the ps3 will continue the saga! =D
and ps3 will sell more in japan, and THEY make the games, lol.

Just saw this today. If it's true then things just got interesting. That standalone BluRay player is starting to loom large.

PS3 hardware slow and broken
You end up with a console with half the triangle setup rate of the 360, a crippled CPU that is a bitch to program, and tools that are atrocious compared to the 360. To make matters worse, you have an arrogant set of execs telling us that twice the price is worth it for half the power, a year late. If it isn't already too late, Sony had better do something about this recto-cranial inversion or it may very well sink the console.

LOL, you guys kill me with all these links but no truth to the rumor...I dont care.This will not stop me from buying a PS3 or anything else you guys post(dnglebry).Sony sold over a 100 million consoles(not even counting PSP) so that would speak in vol how good there product is.But every game system has there flaws.This Blu-Ray vs HD-DVD thing is not going to be a battle after all there are alot of companys that is going to build a player that is going to play both formats also up convert your DVD's.

You just answer you own question dnglebry its the press who said that everything in the press is true which most of it is not.Its only spec thats all these guys dont even own a PS3 system yet.When people in the press speak like this its only there opinion,But they press it like its the truth.

Why doesn't the press like Sony to outsell MS?
Why do they have this negative attitude towards Sony?

You got to relize that people in the press like takeing on giants because it will give them a name for themselves.The press job is to make Headlines not to worry about if something is true or false.Most of the time press these days dont look in to the story in do research for them selves it alway what someone else say.

But we're not talking about Nintendo fanboys.
Why is the PRESS mad at SONY?
Did Sony do something to piss off the PRESS?

Exactly can we please stop covering up the sony woes with comparisons to other systems.I said nothing about the xbox 360 or nintendo wii but all im seeing is fans comparing ps3 to other systems.Your opinon that MS had the worst showing at e3 is just that because the fact is that they were voted to have the best showing.I have only seen a few logical replies to the actual question so please stay on topic.

"lol, funny topic, I suppose nothing can stop me at least, anyway the xbox 360 is only an xbox 1.5, an add-on, the ps3 is more a revolution, you a a personnal computer in it."
if xbox 360 is a 1.5, the ps2 compared to the xbox must have been ps1.1, lol, you know its true.
and my answer to this actual comment, is not an answer but a question to any ps3 fan who can answer it.
ok if the xbox 360 is so crap and the ps3 si so great why?
- did ign give best of show to xbox 360 and 2nd placve to wii.
- did bioshock (xbox 360 exclusive)get best graphics for console, with mass effect (another xbox 360 exclusive) coming in 2nd place and finally assasins creed in 3rd (so why the hell am i going to pay an extra 200 bucks for worse graphics)
- did bioshock get best of show award with mass effect again in 2nd place and mario galaxy in 3rd, where is ps3 i ask.
- did nearly everyone at e3 say the same thing, xbox 360 had loads and loads of great games at the show but ps3 had barely nothing (do not say b/c the xbox 360 has been out a year, b/c normally you guys are always saying that ps3 games will own so you obviously have seen them.
- did ign say that the ps3 online is a complete replica of xbox live.
- gears of war win best multiplayer for ign and best action, and console for offical e3 awards, why did resistance win anything as good as that.
ok i got all my awards from ign,but i feel they are ver unbaised website, considering they went into e3 saying in their podcast that they expect ps3 to steal the show again but they actually went home disspointed wuith sony.
anywasy try and answer those points, they are all facts, and i am not trying to start anyhting here, but i really want to know that if the xbox 360 really is a 1.5 and the ps3 is the holy grail then why does everyone at e3 (who played the games, saw the games and spoke to the developers. not just fanboys on forums who assume something) say that ps3 is no better than the xbox 360.

My question still stands:
Why is the PRESS targeting Sony?
Can BAD PRESS keep fans from buying the PS3?
