That's what you get for being underage. Also, the sales differences between the two are easily explained:
PSX was fucking massive in its time and brought vidya to the mainstream for sure. It was the time vidya stopped being "for children". If you were around, you would understand it, otherwise there would be no need to bring up "pop culture".
meant "didn't steal PS2's mojo" obviously
The cognitive dissonance is amazing.
Not to mention you're basing this entirely off of anecdotal evidence, your only other argument is name-calling and you have absolutely nothing in your favour other than "Microsoft are assholes" and "Microsoft wanted to sell their product" which is true for both companies. Which is why you should never support either of them.
You should really take a step back and re-evaluate your life when you try this hard to defend a shitty company like Sony or Microsoft. Ever since Wii there's nothing positive to say about Nintendo either.
Seriously, grow up.
I explained the reasons WHY I think the OG Xbox harmed the industry much more than PS2. "Muh sales" isn't enough of a reason except for simpletons. I'm not even defending Sony, just describing what I perceive to be reality. It's almost as if you ignored the arguments of my original post and you decided to act like a fanboy retard. PSX & PS2 got good japanese presence, they dominated both platforms, we got a continuation of the philosophical design principles that we already had in the 8-bit and 16-bit era. We didn't get paid online + bastardized PC games (and before you mention the PC to PSX/PS2 ports, these games were designed for PC first and didn't gimp the PC versions to sell more on consoles). PS2 was the last console that had a clear distinct old-school philosoophy. Xbox were making money by bringing gimped PC-style titles. Halo's success ruined FPS forever, Morrowind success ruined CRPGs forever, games were dumbed down to fit on consoles (Thief 3, Doom 3, Deus Ex: IW). Western games stopped being "PC first" with the Xbox.
I give you a 8/10 bait for the fact that you made me reply seriously. All your posts in this thread so far have been shit and devoid of arguments. I won't bother with you next time.
Yes I'm sure sales has nothing to do with profitability/viability from a business standpoint.
Grow up.
Oblivion's release is close, but they still put out a pretty good expansion with shivering isles, and the base game was meaningfully complete.
Horse armor was the real turning point.
This is why we haven't seen aliens. They were kiked but because kikes are parasites, they didn't survive without their host race.
In the vast darkness of space, there are thousands of dead, kikened worlds.
