Kaz Gunning For Profitable PS3 By Next Year

VishusBurn — Tue, 08 Jan 2008 00:34:55 MST

@InsomniaBob:
Its not that complicated to tell who is online.
you just go to the friends tab and look at their name and picture.
If there is a blue dot next to their name; it means that they are online.
If there is a red dot with an x through it; it means that they are offline.
You get a notification when any of your friends come online or go offline in the top right hand corner.

If your PS3 is randomly shutting down; either
A. exchange it or B. get it repaired. The system is launch was little more that a year ago and it comes with a one yeah warranty. I'm pretty sure you're covered.

It may just be over heating. The PS3 shuts down when it gets too hot rather than burning up like the 360.
If you have it a case style entertainment center try opening the doors when using it.

@Garo: Well, Blizzard alone was responsible for bringing Vivendi back into the black from the loss-hole it was in. They have 8 million customer paying about $15 a month. Microsoft has had what.. Halo 3 selling well into the millions territory and a few other games barely breaking 1 million units sold. And they continue to bleed money with each Xbox 360 hardware unit sold. So yes, I do in fact think that Blizzard is making a hell of a lot more money than Microsoft has in the same time period.

I think the problem with PSN is that Sony let the devs have too much freedom and didn't force them to adopt certain features for all online games.

All Sony first party games have in-game friend list and messaging. Most third party games don't.

Also, Voice chat but in Sony games but NOT across different games.

If Sony had "forced devs" to do this for all online-enabled games, we would have more consistency and less confusion about the PSN's features.

The XMB also has a "Players Met" category that shows recent online people met. I have only seen first party games show up on here and maybe Cod4 (not sure) but definitely not all games show up.

I think 2008 will be a great year for Sony, but I don't expect the profit for PS3 to really kick in until 2009. Takes time to recover costs.

But I would predict smooth sailing from fiscal 2009 and on on with the system.

Well, if that's the case, then the XboX and 360 never cut it, except for the three weeks that Halo 3 pulled the XboX out of the fire; other than that, Microsoft's gaming division NEVER made a profit.

@Insomnia Bob:

You might want to read your manual. If it's turning it off it might be saving itself from overheating. If you can hear the fans above a whisper that's a warning sign -- it's not a jet engine sound like the 360. Do you keep it inside a little entertainment center?

@Garo:

Innovated not having working service for about two weeks? XBL is just an extention of old PC services, but centralized auth with peer based gaming is often the worst tradeoff. If you'd stick to the topic you won't get a troll slap down as often.

@Sixtail: "were just lazy and didn't want to sink the millions into online like Microsoft did"

I think the problems that were mentioned were the lack of friends list and recently played games... or is it more than that? I find it terribly easy to play online. Anyway, this is more of an example of cosmetic information that only experience can provide. (patch on the way)

@aphex242:
I think you may be off track here, Sony's mainstays on the ps2 were RPG's, Adventure games, fighters, and single player games. most of the time i just went to my friend's houses to play, online just keeps people from human interaction IMHO.
@muu: LOL no way would they pull out of gaming. They've hit 100 million twice with a lifetime 2-3 years longer than any console gen they were in.
@Sixtail: I think he looks more like the Japanese Arnold Shwarzenegger.
@Insomnia Bob: maybe you're an ms shill, maybe not, but as far as I can tell. Ratchet&Clank, Resistance, bladestorm, Gundam Musau, Uncharted, Heavenly sword, gaiden sigma, MH3, Folksoul, and many more to come this year... it doesn't bite, maybe you just don't realize how different the games are for ps gamers.
To me your only beef is the online and your ps3 turning off in mid game.
2. Send it back
1. Give it some time, ms had since the xbox to work on Live tweaks, and then plenty of years with internet explorer.

I can play games online for FREE, that's all I need. I don't need any of that message friend bullshit. Of course this is my own preference. When a game says on the back that you can play online, I don't expect to pay extra for that if it's a feature that's included with the game you purchase.

fuchikoma — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 09:22:43 MST

I think it'll become profitable and hit its stride... they've certainly lost this race, but like the PSP, they can at least beat MS in Japan and make a decent profit with it.

Go ahead and talk some smack, Kaz... it'll make it sell better if you're confident, and with all the other things Sony has said, you can't really dig yourselves any deeper, haha.

aphex242 — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 09:21:23 MST

@Garo: The reason PS2 owners aren't used to online play is because they didn't have it. I fail to understand how this is a justification for the PS3 being a bit of a dinosaur when it comes to online gaming, as you yourself have admitted.

That's like saying "Well, we don't put antilock brakes on our cars because our customers have suffered without them for years, and they don't expect them in our cars. See how good we are to our customers?"

It's a silly argument. PS3's online support sucks, and Sony better do anything and everything they can THIS GENERATION to remedy that before they find themselves solidly in the backseat.

Being an apologist for them isn't going to make your PS3 better. Holding them accountable for what's wrong with your PS3 will. Get it?

rawg — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 09:04:54 MST

@Insomnia Bob: It makes sense that going from XBOX Live to PSN would feel like a step down. Based on everything I've read, XBOX Live is a superior online experience.

However, for me, the PSN is my first and only online experience on a console and frankly it seems okay to me. I wasn't expecting that much, just the ability to play online and I've had no problem figuring out how to get online to play Resistance, Warhawk, COD4 and the Burnout Paradise Demo.

True, I don't know what I'm missing on XBOX Live but I guess that's my point. I'm not disappointed with my experience at all. A lot of people (and there are a lot) have never experienced how good XBOX Live is and to them the PSN works just fine.

Also, I'm glad that XBOX Live has set the bar so high since hopefully it means PSN can only improve over time.

@Garo: Actually he is right. Online gaming is the way of the future. If you think about it, they only need to find an online hook to attract casual gamers, in much the same way the Wii attracted them with a gimmicky control. Look at World of Warcraft and how all kinds of people from little kids to grannies are playing it and forking over an unbelievable amount of cash for Blizzard/Vivendi, more than Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo could hope to earn in 5 years.

jetsmanfoley — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 06:45:30 MST

@muu: That can't be right. Gaming is a huge industry for Sony and they're not going to just dump the whole thing because the PS3 hasn't sold as much as they'd have liked for a year and a half. They are still making money on the PS2 which is what, 7 years old?

And don't forget the implications it has in other areas of the company. A lot of their investment in the PS3 comes back in terms of increased demand for Bluray and HDTVs (although the results for TVs are much less tangible than Bluray titles)

Xbox Live is only really better than PSN because of the friends list and recently played with gamers list, it doesn't actually host any games, so it isn't necessarily better when it comes to lag.

@InsomniaBob:

Yes the PS3s core audience that came from the PS2 isn't online orientated as the former XBox owners. How can you deny it? Was Online so important for the PS2? No, but it was for the XBox.

Is Online gaming the future? I say yes and on the other hand I say no! Do you really think the Wii and the PS2 gamers think about online gaming 24/7?

That's the reason PSN and "I don't know how it's called on the Wii" are rather poor in their implementation than XBL. Why is this so hard to understand?

Companies like Sony and Nintendo know that their core audience isn't like the MS one, and that's why they are rather cautious! Is this a excuse for the Online thirsty PS3 gamers? No. But from a business standpoint it is reasonable!

XBL just beats PSN on every level. To be honest, I don't understand why more of an effort wasn't made on making PSN more useful in the first place.

Live stuff is coded into every single games but how would past PS3 titles handle Home when there's nothing on the disk to deal with it?

As for making a profit on the PS3, I don't see it happening unless more features get the axe. After all it took two years for the 360 to just reach a point where it wasn't losing money didn't it?

This might not be the time or place, but I don't care.

I'm super pissed at the PS3. I finally put down the cash, pay through the NOSE for the damn thing, and I'm sorry, but it SUCKS.

The online offering is a joke compared to XBL. Managing friends and checking who's online is a massive pain in the ass. The game lineup bites. Only a handful of decent exclusives... I know it's only a year out, but still. If it bites, it bites. Hope fully both of those factors will be improved in '08, but for now...

And, most damning of all, my PS3 is now randomly turning itself off in the middle of a game. I finally get a copy of Warhawk, and I'm actually enjoying it, but now this crap. Hopefully I'm covered under warranty. If not, I'm out a lot of money.

And, just to put things in perspective... my 360 died on me week before last. BUT. I got a good two years out of that thing, and it didn't set me back $500-600 to replace it. ($279) The PS3? Had it less than two months.

Okay, rant over. Fanboys, feel free to tell me how I'm a M$ shill now.
