Hello Player 1

Every now and then we get PR emails from Sony that compare the PS3 to the Xbox 360 and the Wii. The comparison is done up in a nice-looking chart that spells out the benefits of the mighty PS3 and shows how superior it really is compared to the shlubby Xbox 360 (which is the preferred gaming console for pedophiles) and the ballsless Wii (which is for kids and stupid people).
Seriously, if you don’t have a PS3, you are missing out on some truly amazing titles. You are probably also a loser. Here’s what the PS3 has got that the Xbox 360 and the Wii do not:


But wait! Creamsugar has responded with Nintendo’s chart to remind us the Wii exists:

4cr insiders at Microsoft tipped us off that the company was working on their own response to the Sony release. Keep in mind this is an early draft:

All in all, a highly informative chart that taught me many important things, mainly that the PS3 can’t even play Gamecube games with its own separate Gamecube.

This site used to actually be decent.
Very disappointed seeing this kind of crap.

AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH…………………………..
This honestly made my day.
We should have functionality charts for everything now. Like the functionality between DVD players VS. PS3… or how about the Toaster Oven VS. PS3…. maybe a Tool Box VS. the 360.
Internet meme anyone? Anyhow basically sums up how I feel about the companies out there and rabid fans alike.

WTF? I thought this site was just about good games. I’m sure Nintendo or Microsoft never send you random shit about an imminant release of some crap or other. Honestly- just bin the spam and report something awesome!
Devastated on August 14, 2009 at 12:45 pm
Thanks for ruining my day, 4cr. I hate you guys SO MUCH. I am listening to Meatloaf and crying right now.
Shaun Hatton on August 14, 2009 at 12:47 pm
I’m also disappointed in 4cr, but moreso because they should have dumbed this down more. What was this site thinking trying to address the silliness of that Sony release with subversion?
Greg on August 14, 2009 at 12:51 pm
Wow, you guys are giving us shit for this dumb joke, but you didn’t say anything when I ranted about the Kool-Aid Man?
CrèmeSugar on August 14, 2009 at 12:51 pm

It’s a madhouse… MADHOUSE!!

Honestly though the PS3 is really handy mostly for when you’ve got an HD TV, if only for the up-converting DVD and Bluray.

Jon (AKA MoldyToaster…well now his Youtube is Moldytoaster3000) did it better, but I still got a laugh out of this.

The posters in this comment section have given me an idea….
Kool-Aid Man Vs PS3. We must make this happen.

Are all these people talking about leaving the site and whining about this article joking? It’s like you got 4chan’d or something.

Too hilarious, not to mention the comments – this is why this site make me warm on the inside, while my Gigantic consoles make me warm on the outside.
Dann on August 16, 2009 at 5:47 pm
You are all right. This site is a bunch of crap.
You should all go here, its a million times better, and has blu-ray features and kool-aid men.

Charts like this are the only reason I stay here.

Kool-Aid Man on August 17, 2009 at 1:18 am
