This is me too. I bought the PS3 because it was the cheapest BD player on the market and upscales DVDs. I did do a fair bit of gaming on it originally, but the entire update process really turned me off to it. I hated how I would decide to play a game, or buy a new one, and not be able to play it for a half hour or longer. Eventually I just stopped playing games on it. I haven't logged into PSN in nearly 2 years now and only turn it on to watch movies.

Has this update behaviour been changed with PS4? The only thing I can compare to is Steam, which seems to update installed games on its own. Even if I go a long period of time between playing something from Steam, it never says I have to wait while it updates the game first.

Got the same feeling I guess that am to fucking old and the fact that am always saying that better graphics/sound not necessarily means that makes a better game, I do play games from the 360 but playing a game that punish me every time that I made a mistake (Metal Storm / Bucky o' Hare) and that really put a challenge on it's a lot better than one that practically gave you a save point every 5 minutes.

Haven't purchased a PS3 and it seems that I will never gonna purchase one ;D

Here's my 2 cents.

Games don't have as much replay value as they used to because they require a big time investment. Shorter games don't require that.

I'm into a lot of these indie games these days. I wish they weren't all download only, but I'll take it how I can get it.

I spent a lot of time gaming on both the PS3 and 360 and find them both far from boring, the PS3 more so. There were "experiences" on these two consoles that I would have missed out on had I not owned them. Game like Bioshock, Uncharted and Borderlands have stuck with me as some of my favorite games. Multiplayer came into it's own on these two consoles (I know online was available before, but these two systems really took it mainstream) and for me, there is an undeniable, huge amount of fun I've had with this. Playing Halo Reach online with my friends was a blast and teabagging noobs has left a permanent warm spot in my heart.

I could go on and on about all the great games I played, the fun multiplayer sessions that kept me up past my bedtime and the incredible stories I experienced.

I actually really enjoyed the Kinect when I used it, and I played a *LOT* of Rock Band on my 360. That and Catherine were the big reasons why I picked up a 360 of my own after my roommates left and took theirs.

Oh, that and games like Castle Crashers.

I didn't start collecting for PS3 until near the end of its life, and I never had a way to play any of them until about 2 years ago. (Still haven't really played anything on it actually, now that I think of it.
