      They have a picture of a DS Lite next to comments saying "hardly portable" and "Fisher Price design". I thought they were taking a jab at the Lite without giving a proper explanation.

      Hence my original frothing at the mouth post.

        It aint gonna happen unfortunatley. U might see 1 programme ranting about the PS3's high price but that'll be about it. People will be stupid enough to buy the PS3 even at its ridiculously high price.

        The world has been brainwashed by Sony & the PS2.

          i've never listened to media reviews of console stuff (i remember focus magazine cussing the saturn, one lady on the panel calling the saturn a 'dark and lonely world' - it nearly made me cry ), so again here it's not like it's gonna stop me buying a ds lite.
          as for cussing sony, i bet a sizeable few on this very forum will be more than willing to plump for (is that the correct usage?) the high price, maybe even more for an 3L33T jap machine, with super-duper massive wife-stealing stepdown.

          besides, we weren't brainwashed by sony and the ps2 - just remember what gaming was like before the playstation.

          kinda like in V for Vendetta, when he says "i know WHY you did it - you were afraid, etc...". i would say we only have ourselves to blame but i'd be lying, mainly cos i just don't see how sony 'ruined' gaming.

          nowadays i just might hear ppl in the pub talking about psps, pro evo and whatnot. i've never ever heard a mario vs sonic argument in a pub

            The day after the infamous Sony conference they were saying on Radio 1 that Sony had just taken all of Microsoft and Nintendo's ideas and slapped a massive price tag on it with the PS3. Obviously none of the actual journalists said that, but that's what they gave as the consensus from the listener feedback.

            Either way, whenever you get pissed off about the BBC trying to be authoritative and serious on this stuff just think of this...

              ^^ LOL


              Hey, if that was the case, at least Radio 1 told it how it was unlike Edge and other mags.

                That's what I reckon, too.

                The world has been brainwashed by Sony & the PS2.
                I wished that the world was brainwashed by Sega and the DC instead. But that's a different story...

                  If games like DoDonPachi, MushiHimeSama, Guitar Hero, Shadow of the Colossus, Raiden 3, Katamari Damacy, Frequency, Flower, Sun, and Rain, etc, keep coming to their systems then they can continue to brainwash me and many others for that fact.

                    lol always a comedy element when ninty fanboys are complaining about something trivial. i mean i read ages ago about a campaign to bombared a guy's email account with abuse as he made some negative comments about N and pimped Sony, uncalled for imo, you can't expect everyone to have the same views!!

                    completely agree, games that make the console not the label

                        Very comendable line. Means you've been away from the net or TV for some time!

                              Yes it is, I think Nintendo are the most affected when it comes to fanboys clinging on to them.

                              DS Lite and its Apple Computer influence... sure, it's a design trend, but if that had been Sony they'd be citing it as another example of Sony's lack of innovation.

                                amen to that

                                unfortunately, while i do love my saturn and dc, if sega did brainwash us it'd probably not be much fun

                                we have to remember that business is like that - companies are at the top for a while, then they make way for other companies. sometimes a company stays at the top for quite a long while, that's just how it works.

                                it's like that evolution thingy by that beardy guy - survival of the fittest? now that gaming has become such big business, i doubt companies like nintendo or ms will be on top as they can't claim that 'lifestyle' appeal that sony has, with their numerous other products in different sectors that people will at least know about, if not own.
