Josh Robinson's blog on PS3/XBOX360

Uhhh, he's obviously talking about final dev kits.

 

The truth of the information is competely secondary to why he was fired, breaking an NDA or pissing off your employer often has nothing to do with the validity of the information you proclaim.

I'm wondering how you managed to pull this out of what he said, that's quite rich.

 

Accurate. Hahaha. Oh Hardknock, you'll take anything.

 

No it was a stretch to completely dismiss a man that works for sony, has industry connections and know's far more than the majority of posters on this site.

 

Right....

Was it actually confirmed this guy has been fired/his identity is correct? Probably the case but damn if it isn't easy to fake an identity on the net.

Your list is cute btw.
Heres mine:
1) On schedule according to all official reports and indications.

2) According to multiple sources, some independant, this isn't the case.

3) In public, MS thinks they're equal. Carmack thinks the PS3 is more powerful. Multiple developers and companies have gone on record saying PS3 is more powerful.

4) This was posted before final kits existed. Bzzzt.

Edit; You know you're setting yourself up for more falls. You had enough over the Xbox360, don't you get tired of being wrong on pro-360 FUD and anti-PS3 FUD?

 

We'll see in a few months now won't we? Personally I feel they were trying to spoil 360's launch by saying they were launching in the Spring. Nothing more nothing less.

And what sources would these be?

Carmack said he thinks PS3 has more "peak power", but the 360 was easier to develop for. What does it matter if you have more theoretical power when it can never be utilized?

Nobody knows when final kits went out.

 

Ignore Hardknocks, his agenda will always likely be anti-Sony.

BTW, I don't feel sorry for this guy, since he risked being owned when he posted wrongful information already.

 

We will see in February.

Apart from nearly all Sony developers (inc. but not limited to KZ devs, Factor5 devs, Evolution Studios and Deano in this very thread), and independantly - Tommy Tallarico.

Who says it can't be utilized?

I've said it before and I'll say it again: When Microsoft can't decide whether the Xbox360 is weaker (E3/TGS), the same (pre-launch) or stronger (post-launch) than the PS3 you know it aint #3.

We know they weren't meant to be out 'til December.

OMFG exclusive Sony ahead of scedule.

 

Oh please, I just spent over $800 on the PSP just last year.

PSP system
5 games
1 gig memory stick
3 UMD movies
System case + extra battery

And this was all at launch. Stop with the act, you don't know me at all.

I'm tired of the misinformation going around about the PS3 and it blowing the 360 away. The closer and closer we get to the PS3 launch (which again I'll be purchasing on the first day) you'll see that I was always right

Yeah champion him losing his job because his opinion didn't gel with your console of choice.

If all his comments had been positive you people wouldn't have had a problem at all.

 

Unfortunately I think that is most likely correct as well.

 

You do a damn fine job of spreading misinformation around many forums about the PS3 in retaliation, I must say.
Btw, you weren't right on 1/4 of the posts I saw from you on Xbox360

This line of thinking is stupid. If he had've posted positive comments we would've brushed it off as "well thats expected he works for Sony".

Same as why we don't take comments from SN systems, Factor 5, Evo Studios, Guerrila + more into serious consideration when comparing power.

 

Really don't know how you managed to interpret it that way, as he's unambiguously saying some time ago and first generation dev kit.

Please explain.

 

You can't find a single quote from me posting inaccurate information buddy. Nice how you try to discredit a man that worked for Sony, and now me because I speak the truth. This man has worked on the PS3 and has infinitely more knowledge than some f@nboy on a messageboard. He was not too impressed. Deal with it.

Oh please, now you contridict yourself. Here you say you wouldn't trust a developer that is exclusive to sony.

But here you'll believe a PS3 exclusive dev that hints their games are the same quality of their E3 demos... Riiiiiiight....

 

What is that suppose to mean? Anyone can buy a product from a company they hate, but you on the other turn right around discrediting the PSP's 3D ability and claim that the DS's 3D capability are on par withthe PSP at RA.

You should take one's suggestion and read the actual thread before trying to defend a guy who was mostly talking in regards to his limited abilities.

BTW. what are you trying to prove here anyways, since you claimed you haven't followed this thread? Because it looks like you're only trying to add some more comments to your anti-Sony agenda over the net?

 

No problem, I'll explain. It really wasn't hard. If you notice he states:

Then he states:

Several does not equal "5" in my book. It's clear to me he was refering to two seperate dev kits.

 

WTH? You're confused, because I've stated no such thing. Hell I bought the PSP because of it's superior graphics to the DS!

And me spending $800 on a company I hate is just laughable, do you read what you type before hiting submit?

I've since read this thread from top to bottom. Pay attention.

 

Product support does not always equal company support. How hard is that to understand?

I'll let this argument die, since you'll probably fail to understand.

If you would have read what was posted from Mr. Robinson blog. You would understand that he is very limited by what he knows.

 

I've read his blog, and I've also read his resume. In case you missed it:

The man doesn't seem to be "limited" at all.

 

After reading this from the first post about Robinson's blog, he automatically loses all crediblity afterwards. How hard is that to understand?

In a court of law, he would lose all credibility and his comments afterward would not be consider as any form of hard evidence.

 

uh... you just don't see the word

FIRST GENERATION DEV KIT

Anyway, was he talking about two different devkits, the one being the batch of 5 that could be final dev kits, and the rest being the "several" that clearly are first generation dev kits.
He's not continuing the sentence where he talks about these assumed final dev kits, he's not saying they are the first final devkits delivered.

I really don't know, but they might as well already have received one or two "final" devkits earlier, and that one of five would be just that, one of five devkits delivered to US.
I wouldn't be surprised if Sony didn't deliver all those devkits from 4000 that are supposed to land in US at once, in one plane or boat (what if that plane crashed? all those devkits would be gone ), and how's it possible this guy (an artist) knows so exactly how many kits exactly US devs have received and when. Even with many real developer friends I'm sure all he would get are rumours and guesses, to have an exact nuber as that he'd need to have a contact in every developing company in the US who knows how many devkits the company has received so he could get reliable data.

Anyway, the "information" that can be extracted from that "article" is vague to say the least. Not worthy of a three star thread
