They hate on it because it has a bigger player base.. WoW gets ripped on all the time and its the biggest MMO - most of the time its just to knock on it.

I believe it is because of PSN getting hacked. Lots of people were pretty pissed off that they got hacked and couldn't play online for a while. Oh and the fact the PS3 was $1000 on launch. That was WAY too expensive.

I believe they are both good consoles and it depends on your own opinion.
Where the fuck do you live that a PS3 was $1000?
Australia, the PS3 was $1000 at launch while the XBOX 360 was $400.

Although we pay double what the rest of the world pays :(

It's equal dislike between the two. The PS3 is not against the world.
lol Wii players jump in it anyway they can with their "nintendo is the gaming only innovative company the rest copy us!" crap, it all boils down to how many fanboys on are that particular thread when the outbreaks start. PC, consoles, mac users will all jump into a fanboy war if it sways more into their favor over the others.

Oh and the PS3 gets a lot of hate because Sony are a bunch of cunts. Not saying Gates aint a **** also but Sony really are just a complete and utter bunch of cunts.
Nah, I'd say the PS3 gets any form of hate not because "Sony is a bunch of cunts," but because it's a Sony product and will pretty much explode if you spill something on it.

Well that and continuously fighting the losing battle against piracy that screws over no one BUT the people who do pay. Sorry, Sony, but I am not downloading another fucking patch every single time I want to browse around the god damn store.

There has always been hate in the gaming community. PS3 isn't hated any more than 360.

If it's hated, it's probably because the haters secretly want a PS3 but are too poor to get one.
Heck, I can't afford a PS3 and I want one. Even though 90% of the games I want on it are also on the 360... I just happen to have a hatred of Microsoft. Not trying to be a fanboy, and I'm not saying one is better than the other, I just hate Microsoft.

Also this isn't coming to the 360. [http://www.namco.com/console/tales-of-graces-f]

No, they don't. That's a what-do-you-call-it, a hasty generalization. There's no 'everyone' or even 'most people' in this statement. In reality, no side winneth, no side loseth. Anybody saying different has an agenda.

You're damn lucky I even bothered to read that block of text with absolutely no spacing. *Felt like saying that* Next time try some spacing to be easier on the eyes. :D

Not in an offensive way you do sound a bit like a fanboy defending PS3 so vehemently and attacking the xbox 360 so aggressively. :3

Well I mean who cares? Does it really matter what other people on the internet of all things think of a system? :3 I think not. Live life and be happy buddy.

My hatred of the PS3 comes from when it was hacked. Specifically, because it took Sony a WEEK to tell us that all of our personal information was gone. Adding in the fact that they had to give us COMPLETELY wrong timeline that couldn't possible be more off. Bear in mind, before the incident, I was a MASSIVE PS3 fanboy.

Well, fanboys will be fanboys obviously- so there's bound to be hate.

Either way, I don't hate the PS3, though I have a 360, I just prefer that the Xbox is cheaper (since I'm totally broke). I don't use online features so the paid/free online cost doesn't factor in.

Besides, while I like some of the exclusive titles for PS3, these days of multiplatform release makes the console wars mostly pointless- so it's not enough for me to justify the additional $100 it would have been when I was debating which to buy (which is two or more games worth of budget right there).
I do wish Microsoft would just bite the bullet and buy the rights to some of the PS3 exclusives, but not as much as I wish the fanboy bitching would stop.

Anyway, it just comes down to what personally fits you best.

Its just fanboys. Everyone hates them, and I use to have a ps3 and a 360. But I'm going to go 360 and nintendo from here on out. Its what I prefer, and ps3 has a ton of geat gams, like all the other consoles.

XBOX is better than PS3 because it gets all the dlc before PS3 does.
Xbox gets most of the dlc first because most games are orignally made for that system and are then ported to others.(Like CoD. We get the dlc a month later.)

Nobody hates the PS3 except people who don't have one. And those people's opinions of the PS3 are irrelevant since they don't know what they're talking about.

Also, welcome to the internets.

Dude, it´s the Internet. Worse, youtube. I also have a PS3, but most of my friends have Xbox´s, and we don´t argue even once if one is better than the other. They´re both good.

Also, "Microsoft is evil" isn´t exactly ground-breaking news.

The "console wars", as fanboys and people acting as fanboys for the irony factor call it, is just a trollercoster that some people use to bash others just because they can.

Wii users stay out of it cuz they don't have much to bring to the table. I only own a ps3 so I'm biased, I admit it. I haven't seen much ps3 hate though, so it is easily avoidable

Only 2 things I hate about the PS3 are the L2 and R2 buttons, they don't feel very comfortable, and some of the games I have played, RE5, COD and something else, the fire button has been moved to L1 and R1, why change it, the PS2 had L2 and R2 as its firing buttons so why change it?

My brother owns a PS3, though ONLY for MGS4, he hates it, but only because when you press the power button it takes a couple of seconds to turn off, and apparently when you switch it off incorrectly, you get the old nagging Windows 98 message of you not switching it off properly, and when he first played GTA4 on my 360 he was stunned about how quickly it switched off (immediatly). Then again my brother gets impatiant when a game has to load, seriously its mental, so I really don't know how valid these points are, but I thought I'd share.

But in short I'm a bit indiffrent to the PS3 and as far as Youtube PS3 hating goes, I hadn't noticed, I always thought there was more 360 bashing on there.

I never use my PS3 for the fickle reason, that its trigger buttons drive me mad! If they were not so squishy and thumb numbing, I would be more inclined to use the damn thing!
Uh, I feel like if you're using your thumbs to press the trigger buttons you're probably doing something wrong...

i'm sorry if i come off as a fanboy, i was pretty damn enraged when my XBOX LIVE membership expired, i was angry about it for a long time because i couldn't go online for a year, and then i finally got around to buying a 3-month membership which also has expired. i'm not trying to be a fanboy, i've just had a lot of anger building up that i just kinda blew up, i lost it for a while, y'know?
I hope you take this constructively, but you seem to care a lot about what other people think of you. You might find yourself more at peace if you were to tone this down a bit and the internet is probably as good a place to practise this as any. Also there is nothing wrong with being a fanboy. It's sounds like a derogitory term but when you wrap your head around what it means is it really so bad? I hapilly called myself a Halo fanboy this time last year (in anticipation for Reach).
