actully i don\'t think sega sucks nor it\'s hardware...i just wanted to get MR beast here mad;)

i have a DC and the only game i like to play is quake3 on-line with a mouse and keyboard...

The point of this thread is that SONY has sold 10million consoles....Sears,Bestbuy,Toys r Us, KB toys, EBworld..etc..etc would not order them if there was no demand....
. I\'ve said it before and I\'ll say it again, in terms of ingenuity, exclusivity, and console competition, X-Box brings nothing to the table except a fat wad of cash and some rehashed PC components wrapped with a DC controller and a plastic black box.----RYU

With Gran Tourismo and Metal Gear 2 comming out, expect ps2 just to sell sell sell :)
I met him 15 years ago, I was told there was nothing left, no reason, no concious, no understanding and even the most rudamentory sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong, I met this 6 year old child with this blang pale emotionless face and, the blackest eyes, the devils eyes, I spent 8 years trying to reach him, and then another 7 trying to keep him locked up because I realised what was living behind that boys eyes was purly and simply evil.

good job, you really got me riled up. gimme a break, trying to get a rise out of someone is the most pathetic form of posting, the same BS you post everyday, if Im not correct?

Sony hasn\'t sold 10 million. period. Like I said before, my Babbages and EB have tons in stock, as do the Toys R us around here (now, lazy bastages), PS2 isn\'t the hot thing anymore. ALthoguh, it is still selling fast.

And, to whoever said about reporting distributed numbers as sell through numbers, well all I can think of is Square and Sony who do that, hmmm.


BTW, like I said before, I dont hate Sony, just their business model. (I have now had a PS2 for 2 months, I just don\'t spout crap like many Sony fanboys on here the day I got it, such as threads titled "Yay! Look at Me, I got one finally", because no one really cares.)

Some people need to get over things. No one here is the holy videogame crusader.

Beast, you say only Sony and Square do these things. Do you want me to post BS interviews with SEGA, so you can judge their morals? Do you think I give a ****, if Sony says the PS2 will cure cancer? Or if MS said the Xbox prevents HIV? I don\'t give a damn what these companies say. I don\'t care if Square comes out and says the PS2 is 25x more powerful than all other next-gen systems combined. In the end, if I like what they produce, I\'ll get it. That\'s what matters. Every single person in the world talks BS @ one point or another.

The point? Games are just games. Forget the BS that the developers promise or say.

I\'m actually surprised you have a PS2. What games did you get for it (if any)? And why must you assume that everyone who posts \'yay I got my ps2 finally\' is a fanboy? Can\'t they just be excited that they finally got the console they wanted? I do agree however, not many people really care. You say you don\'t like Sony\'s business model,.. I\'ve never seen you say something negative towards the X-box, so do you approve of M$\'s business model?

These are the same funny numbers we always here. "SHIPPED" not sold through, hell if SOny will EVER produce a sell through number.


Eric Jacob


  You are totally right AlteredBeast.  Those numbers are the units shipped to the stores and not the numbers that were actually sold.  Out of the numbers that were sold, most of them were sold as DVD players.

  As much as you all hate Microsoft and say they lie.  Sony has blinded a lot of you into believing that they are sinless like Jesus Christ, when they are really like the Anti-Christ.

  I don\'t think there are as many compulsive liars in this industry like Sony.  They doctor most of almost every shot to either be Full Motion Video or to be renders (kind of like Microsoft is the only one that is supposed to be doing this) and they constantly outright lie about their numbers.

  Of course if Sony lies and such its gotta be okay right?  Its okay to be brainwashed, right?

  Am I bitter?  No way, but you know what?  I am no fool either and most of you that are loyal to sony are actually blinded by your love for this company and can\'t see the real truth of whats going on...

   Sony keeping Microsoft out of the retail market, sure thats fair right?  sure....  If it was Microsoft doing the same you all would be saying Monopoly, but yet Sony makes everything under the sun, from watches and to alarm clocks to gaming software, to music, but somehow people are silent... hmmmmm  gotta love double standards....

Altered Beast might be right but you are one little bastard that does nothing than Anti-Sony propagantha.

YOUR POSTS ARE POINTLESS!

Do you read anywhere that Sony has sold 10 million PS2???IT SAIS ONLY SHIPMENTS!!I dont know where Sony lied.

How the hell do you know if most of them where sold as DVD players?

Its not because of Sony Bill is called an Anti-Christ.
I cant find anywhere anything that show Sony trying to destroy MS fame.
People used to call him an anti Christ before.
Some people hate Bill gates even before he revealed his plans for a console.

You know?You are the only one trying to brainwash people.

Ok show me some renders that Sony said they were real time shots.

You are a fool.You are blind because of your hatred towards Sony AND US because we like PS2.
MOST VISITORS IN HERE  OWN OTHER CONSOLES TOO AND THEY SEEM TO LIKE THEM TOO!!

Why dont you go visit other forums like XBOX or GC forums??They are 100 times worse.Biased bigots most of them.

Hey dude because Sony dont do only one thing it doesnt mean they are doing monopoly.
In every industry the take part in there is always the competition.

Man you make facts out of your ass.

Are you trying to change this thread into a console war debating?

You dont like PS2 my friend?Go to the console debating.OR get the hell out of here.

data - I have said negative things about X-Box, but only in the console debating forum, where it is necessary.

and yes, I would like to see ANY interview with Sega in which they state a shipped through number and try and pass it off as a sold through number, discreet like.

I have Onimushua and Rayman 2. I havent had the money (or care) to have any of the other current games. Although I have bought a few PSX games as I can now play some of the ones I missed after my third one broke.

DWarrior - please don\'t agree with me, you make me look half-retarded. Have your own biased opinions, just don\'t track them on with my own.

Beasty,

I said an interview where Sega talks BS, I didn\'t necessarily mean shipped/sold units. Sega has spoken a ton of junk in the past, all complete lies, yet you don\'t think nothing of it. (or do you?)

And you never answered if you approve of M$\'s business strategies...

   I said I agree with you on that one subject.  I unlike a lot of people around here arn\'t going to lick sony\'s behind.  Besides, I don\'t make you look half-retarded, if you do its because you have issues.  Its got nothing to do with me.

I am not sticking up for anyone here but If I everyone else is posting pro-Sony propaganda and I do not think they are as god-like as most make them out to be, I will voice my opposition. If I were to say something like "Sony\'s PS2 is not designed that well" in a thread that already has a pro-PS2 slant. I will be looked upon as a fanboy. Even if my statement has a little bit of truth to it. I guess its just the nature of the beast.

BTW, I don\'t know how you can say someone is anti-something if they purchase that same something.

Sony has not lied per se. They are saying shipped but many of you assume and still believe that means sold. All of the companies do that and it is hard for the gamer newbies to swallow.

What I believe they were talking about is Sony telling stores to take Xbox displays down or they will not recieve any more PS2s. That is kind of a shady business tactic and I believe it is illegal. Nintendo recently did the same thing but they were telling companies to put the Xbox displays down and focus on what is available now, Mainly the PS2 and GBC.
