Well, E3 is here, and eh, does it look like the PS2 is finally dead?
There are no major PS2 announcements from Sony.
No top quality Sony games, no nothing about the PS2.
No online wants, no single player wants, just nothing.
A not very interesting announcement about Cell workstations by the end of the year, and a hand held device.
So, the PS2 finally dying?
We've got Metal Gear Solid 3, and Gran Turismo 4 to look farward to as exclusives, woohoo :D
My Xbox might be my favourite console in the coming months, Doom 3 Live, Halo 2 Live, The Red Star, PES Live, and the full EA lineup Live, yes I want NHL on my Xbox.
Microsoft are now THE major player in the games console industry, and Live has swung it for them.

First of all, I'm not trying to support the playstation intentionally, you keep saying this fan boy thing because you want to make me look inferiour, so that people would support you, I'm telling you, you're full of crap.I've only been saying facts, if you suffer from a mental problem with ps2, then don't keep babling about it here, you're always assuming, you never mentioned a fact that actually exists during this conversation, and for your definition for an opinion, well then, if you want to put it that way, I have the right to state the following as my opinion:
" All games suck, except for Lilo and Stitch which is best game ever!"

Of course the word is opinion. It is my opinion of the game as it is - from what I have seen/read/been shown. If I think it looks crap, it's my opinion. If I think a better looking game will be better than it, again it's my opinion.
How can you have an opinion on something that doesn't exist yet.. if there's a word for it it's not 'opinion'.

Oh, so there are rules on opinions now? Chuff me matey, I thought opinions were part of the free speech initiative. If I want to say Halo 2 will be better than Killzone, I bloody well will do. If I want to say Killzone is crap (just an example - I actually like the look of it) - I bloody well will do. Since the game is not out yet, it must be my opinion - why is that so hard to fathom?
Maybe you should refrain from your hypocritical, fanboyish trolling posts and fark off elsewhere unless you have something decent to say.

Wrong . I am right. It's true, I've read many reviews including ign's and a translation of the famitsu review saying that there are flaws with the game, and when I said this to people on this very same forum, they totally disagreed and said that they love it, and the reviews are wrong, I didn't make anything up, I just read some web site reviews , and some people told me their opinion, why on earth would I make it up ?

I am talking about the majority, at least people of this forum, there was a thread that had 50+ posts about mgs2 being a big disappointement, but yet that doesn't mean it's a bad game, actually it's a great game, it's just that mgs1 had a better story, that's all, and that's why many people got disappointed, and they are from this forum so don't keep saying that I made it up.

That's not what I meant. i meant to tell you not to go arround saying that this game is bad and this game is good, and this game is better than that game, before playing them, if you want to create a pre-purchase opinion, you can only give general ideas, for instance you could say"this has improved" and "that looks great" but you can't say "this one is better than that one", how on earth would you know ?

ATI are the only current manufacturer to support 3Dc compression in hardware.
If I was making a console, I'd want the new ATI chip in it.
3Dc is a hardware implementation of Polybumping, the technology which helps make the models in Doom 3 look so damn fine :D
Anyway, Sony official sources rubbished the Nvidia GPU claim saying that Sony are designing their own graphics chip for the PS3, the same way they did for the PS2.

False. Some major game reviewers did like it, while I'm sure a fair amount of gamers didn't. You're just inventing your own facts here.

Well, unless you've experienced the same thoughts as the whole MGS2-playing population, I don't think you can really form an opinion on whether or not people like or dislike the game. You're just being a hypocrite on this occasion.

I'm guesing those statistics came from the same land of hype that the 'emotion engine' did.
Sony are kings of hype, I wouldn't believe everything they say if I was you.
