Too bad A) GameDaily sucks, there was even a thread here on Giant Bomb about how everyone hates them, and B) Everyone else thinks the exact opposite so thats pretty pointless."

gamedaily is fine, they just tend to make strong statements in their things like this. They have editorials that actually give the opinion of a person, not the more socially correct way.

So far in response to the game daily link here are the common feeling.

Im a sonyfanboy and therefor if they think its gonna be bad then they are bad and they suck.
Opinions that do not mesh with my own suck.
People that have opinions that are opiset of mine should not be allowed opinions.

Thats some really sad feelings there.

Hmm I don't know if i would say the 360 is best console ever but i can see ppl making a argument for it to be. I mean it has good games, it has a great market place, It is very ez to play online. I think the main thing that holds it back is the hardwear itself. If it didn't breakdown as much as a PS2 i think that would give it a stronger case.

I'm actually not like that at all...

I just feel they lost credibility after the whole 360 thing.

You know you're slipping into convenient delusion when you cite GameDaily as a source. Those are the same people who put Xbox 360 as the best console of all time."

Actually, to be honest, the xbox 360 is one of my favorite consoles. Granted, I never owned a dreamcast or actually any sega system, but when people call the dreamcast the best console of all time, I just dont see why. It had a couple of great games, but died in like 2 years. The 360 is definatewly on pace to outdue the ps1.
For me:(out of what ive owned): Xbox 360> Ps1 > SNES > Ps2 > N64 >PS3> Xbox > NES > Wii
The ps3, 360, and wii positions are assuming from what is out and whats we see, will stay on the same pace.

Have you ever played a game called Garry's Mod?

Case in point.

Most people don't even know anything about it and haven't heard of it. The only group that seems to be hyping it is the online game fanatics (like us).

Wait ppl thing the dreamcast was the best system every? When did this happen? LOL i think to have a best system you have to last more then 3 years. I look at it this way, Best system has to fulfill 3 things

1) System Game quality
2) System longevity (aka how long the system is out on the market)
3) System stability (aka it don't break down)

I say these 3 cause systems of old didn't have online stuf... heck some systems now still don't have real online stuff. =P
"

PS2 is still supported after 8 years and sure it broke down a lot but it still has the most games and was a beast. 140 million units? Holy shit man.

360's been out for not even 3 years, breaks down, and isn't exactly the best ever. Factually it's delusional.

With the amount of hype it has going in it seems like it will be really hard for LBP to live up now.

People say Dreamcast was best console at the time vs the ps1 and n64 graphic-wise plus you could play burned games without modding the console :P
On another note, I think LBP is a bit overhyped, I guess we'll just have to wait and see if the quality of the content created by users its enough to keep the game fresh or if it will only be good for a few days.

amount sold shouldn't be a factor in how good a system is due to the fact that gaming has incresed in popularity after NES. For me SNES was the best system, it had games, it never had a problem (if you took care of it), it lasted for just about 6 years. PS1 and 2 may have lasted on the market longer but they just broke down to much for them to overtake SNES in my mind.

I'm not comparing the PS2 to those consoles, just the 360.

I'm glad that a game like Little Big Planet is over hype, they're too many big name games always taking most of the glory. Maybe if LBP is hype up enough, it'll capture a lot of gamers interest into buying it.

As long as it isn't priced as a full-retail game, I think I'll check it out, but I can see sony getting ahead of themselves with all the positive press its been getting. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to charge full price for it and people will think twice.

I'd say a game that depends on the users creativity will have a hard time not to fail.

why?
Do you even have a xbox 360? I know you don't.
The 360 is my favorite console as it's going. It's just delivered a constant flow of great titles from all genres and has the best online setup ive used.

If you're going to argue that the ps3 is better, is it not true that it's essentially waiting on games? I have played every single title worth playing on the ps3 basically, not on the 360.
The Ps3 reminds me of the xbox a lot and the 360 with the qualities i liked of the ps2 but also with support all around.

Overhyped? As much as I love the look of LittleBigPlanet, I think it'll struggle to sell millions. Definitely not overhyped.

I reckon it'll be somewhat like Psychonauts, a brilliant game, loved by game journalists and everyone who has played it, but just doesn't sell very well.
