"Sony thought of it first"

After getting dangerously frustrated with red faction last night I decided to cool off with something else, Don't ask me why i kept it but a free disc was given away with the old playstations called demo one. It's packed with playable demos, videos and other cool things.

I put on the porshe challenge demo and i used to own the full game but didn't have the analog controller at the time. The led came on showing that the sticks were supported and then the left one was your steering and the right one was your accelerator/brake, not as sensitive as the dual shock 2 but it's proves a point that Sony did think up the idea WAY before anyone else.

Porsche challenge is made by SCEE and is almost FIVE years old, dreamcast ain't made yet so they couldn't have ripped off the triggers and come to think of it i don't think Nintendo even had their rumble pack out yet, which is another thing this game used.

Nintendo may have been the first to have a directional analog stick but Sony took it one step further.
res :-)

hey you, stop it :-)

Sony have thought of some cool things, there's a list in this PS2 mag, the betamax vcr, the 3.5 inch floppy disk, the world's first cd player in 1982 and the PSX :-D

Don't think I'm supporting Sony or anything, personally I don't like their microsoft type attitude but they gave me the Playstations so, me happy :-)

Nintendo released their rumble pack with Lylat wars, it cost £80 at first!!!!!!

That was in... 1996 I think.

DEATH TO YOU RES! :o)

gc will stop 'em.

And just look at the success of the PS1 and 2... Is there any stopping them?

Best point in the whole thread. SOny are just a company that takes an idea to the next level. they never really come up with anything original, but just swipe ideas from the next company and produce a better product...i dunno if i'm just chatin crap now or what, but sisnt Sharp bring out the first Mini-disc player? its just that i remember my mate bringing back a Sharp MD back from hong-kong before i had even heard of them. but today, sony do make the best MD players.

Then theres the VCR. JVC created that, but sony make the best ones...then there is TVs...well i dont know who created them but nothing messes with a sony wega.

Sony thought of something???

Good god.

Ah yes, I kept my Demo one disc. It's got that cool sound to light thing that turns your tv into a funky disco when you play a music cd.

I've only got 3 PSX games now, mind you, as I got rid of them when I gave away my PSX to my brother-in-law. Not that I had that many in the first place.

I might start collecting them again now that they can be picked up for £5 each. Modern classic gaming (or something)

Ok, here we go.

What is there for dinner?

Anyway, I've had enough. Engage legs and take me home.

Don't ask me; I'm only your mind, and I wasn't paying attention.
