Yeh, I can't believe the sun turned out to actually be a guy! :0

All the digital game pushing and we can't even play the games we purchased. I remember the good ol days when the systems were all backwards compatible. It was nice to get new features on a new system with the older games that one still played. As it stands now it's pretty much a stand-alone system not related at all

My car wobbles if I press down on it. Stupid cheap engineers!!!

Well DUH. This was obvious to anyone with a brain the second they started pushing digital downloads and games even on the PS3 and Xbox.

I loved ICO, But the lack of an inverted axis option for both Ico and Shadow of the Colossus made me not even play Shadow of the Colossus after a few minutes. I finished Ico, the camera was annoying, but it was an enjoyable game. Its really not that hard to include a few extra control options that many people use.

Munchkin brings out the rule-lawyers, who are ironically one of the butts of the games point. And munchkins...

Time to cancel that demo download. Sounds.... thrilling. Do I get to freak out over a zit on date night? OH THE THRILLS!

Online console gaming has been in place for Sony, Sega and Nintendo for years at no charge - and I don't recall the months-long outage that Microsoft's paid version had a few Christmasses ago with those free versions, so.... I don't know what to tell you.

I have the same kind of ps3 as you, which has an option to turn off that feature. You just need to go into your System Options and turn off "What's New" like I did. Voila. The Xbox, on the other hand, does not want you to have the ability to turn off the ads. So... yeh, that's why it is worse.

Then you haven't turned off that feature, which is an option thankfully. The scrolling ticker in the upper right? That ruined the award winning design of the XMB, in my opinion, and looks ridiculous. If only they had provided an option to turn that thing off as well. But still, Sony does not have as many ads as

They exist, therefore they takeup too much space. But seriously, there are really ads all over the place on the dashboard. Remember when internet browsers were like that? That's why the Google homepage was so attractive to millions of users. I used to have a TiVo unit, until they started putting ads on the homepage. I

Their dashboard full of ads (powered by X Box Live, which was originally promised to be dedicated solely to gaming for better speeds and connections - how many remember that empty promise?) Turned me off of the Xbox 360 years ago, and it's still sitting on my shelf, while my ps3 gets all the love. Of course, with the

I'm very appreciative for the beta footage, but it sure is painful to watch the player. Watching him hang back with his spear - scared to poke when he is clearly out of the enemy's range, watch him run into walls and try to roll through buildings, and his general horribleness.... I really wish someone who was familiar

The stars he received say otherwise. Yours? Well... you can count.

Probably for the same reasons it won't do many things people would benefit from. ;) The PS3 isn't excluded from this critique, either.

Your points are well taken for SOME games - which are not the only games in existence. Having buttons that are just buttons are (and have been) perfectly fine for the majority of games and consoles that habe existed. If a game "needs" triggers, then make them an add on rather than specializing a controller for a few

Drive a commercial lawn mower. Are the levers cockeyed? No, because that would be stupid. Play the old arcade Virtual On, and apply the above. Play Katamari Damacy on the Xbox and see how unnatural it feels. I buy 99% of my games for Sony because their controller engineers aren't idiots (well, except for when they got

Thank you, didn't notice. Why'd you betray Igrid, by the way? She really liked that thing you do with your tongue.

Videos are gone. I love when people send emails to Microsoft to ask them whether something is real, and then they force the person to remove it. I never even got to see it.

My original died playing a Dark Souls marathon. :( So there went my BC (which I DID use) and some of the better SACD features as well as the 2 extra usb ports: all of the above which I used. Seeing as Dark Souls 2 is coming out on PS3 and there will be no way to play that on the PS4 - I haven't seen a single reason to
