While other companies have made strides in ergonomics and functionality (Not even including the Wiimote!), sony have repackaged and resold the SAME SUBSTANDARD CONTROLLER for over 10 years.

I think its a bit harsh to just look at it from this perspective. Sure there are many franchises that have been produced, reproduced and re-released, but this is not the only games that are on Sony's console. To be fair the same could be said about Nintendo with the amount of games that bare the Mario name.For me this is not a negative point of gaming, I love playing every new release of a Zelda game, the new PES game is something I look forward to very much and a new Final Fantasy always gets my attention.Their are plenty of other games to keep you occupied with your console. If you have a Wii, PS3 or 360 you should have no complaint of games to play on said system. I think arguments like this can be looked at as pointless console stabbing. No real need for it unless you have a hatred of a certain console.Are these the only games that your PSX/PS2/PS3 produce? Do you have no other Rpg's to try? No other action, adventure, sport or puzzle game? I could go on forever as the first two consoles have produced so many games over the years you could live out the rest of your life trying all the games available. Give it time and the PS3 will have a huge back catalogue of titles.Regarding the controller, what the hell is the need to fix something that isnt broken? Look at the original xbox pad, it was broken therefore needed fixed? They have basically stuck with a formula that works well for the modern console.

Gran Turismo and God of War are gigantic hits. Why wouldn't they want to make more? You've got to consider that they're first and foremost a business. Don't hold any illusions that their top priority isn't making money.

Well for one thing, its uncomfortable, cheaply made, and the analog sticks are in a stupid place that promotes hand fatigue. Not to mention the pressure sensitivity is terrible, the digital buttons feel awful, the analog sticks become slippy and hard to use over time, the analog sticks FEEL crappy and they have juddery instead of smooth motion. Oh, and the sticks have a dead zone up to about half their movement range, which makes precise control finicky at best.

Well Fantasy isn't really Sony's. Square Enix could drop them at any time. And the other way around aswell.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~You guys aren't getting the point, I said lack of creativity, not game bashing. I love GT games The Sony Consoles have always had something I like to play. I'm just saying get some new ideas. Entirely missed the topic......

I prefer it when a series has the number next to its name. When it does it shows the companys pride in that game too.If it doesn't it can get confusing, say for example I wanted to play the games in order... but they all have different names, it gets confusing as to what the order of the games was. I also hate it when games names are changed that confuses matters a fair bit too lol.

well thats your opinion i like the sony controller the best it fits in your hand perfectly the buttons are easy to reach and are in convenient places and i bet you i am not the only one that thinks the controller is great.

no way man. sony's still awesome. who cares if there are repeats? if you like a certain game and there are sequels, it'd be awesome, no? thats just what i think.. kinda like.. "hey cool this game is awesome. HEY COOL THERES ANOTHER ONE." plus it gets better as there are more, usually. but it also depends on the game. and as with Final Fantasy, each one is a different story, with hints of things that are in the others, which are kinda like the Final Fantasy trademark.. so yeah. its all good.

to tell you the truth sony is isn't lacking anything but the company is stupid why would make a new game console with no exceptionally good games that could help you gain a lot of profit if sony was smart they would have came out with the system late 2007 or 2008 i'm pretty sure they're losing profit

The lack of innovation isn't that surprising or bothersome.I was just kinda hoping Sony would change the controller design somewhat after years of it being the exact same. Why not just try something fresh? They were going for it with the boomerang but got scared at the gaming community's reaction.

Uh, useless topic. Sony is unoriginal because they don't have subtitles? Does that really affect the quality of the game? No.

the reason all the final fantasies are the same is bcuz sony doesnt make the DAMN game its Suare Enix who makes it sony just exploits it for their system so back the HECK off. and the reason the controller sytem is the same bcuz its the best one ive ever seen the feel vis great unlike the poobox 3pooty and the button system isnt confusing X, triangle, O, and square arent to hard to figure out i mean u lern ur shapes way b4 u learn ur abc's so its more familiar, it would've been nice 2 keep the boomerang controller though, the joystyk is fabulous unlyk poobox who has their joystiks in two remotely different areas and use the diamond formation of the bouttons which was 1st exploited with playstation along with the d-pad so microsoft is the copycat no creativity in this book. and halo is also a repeating series so microsoft aslo loses alot of creativity points there as well. i also think tht if sony could keep a game on their side since the ps1 all the wayy to the ps3 then i give them points on tht one. and xbox 360 thts pretty freaking dumb, seriously lets name our system after angles YAY, wats next Xbox 720 lol. so anyone who thinks sony isnt original then they're and CUMGUZZLINE DUMBASS WHO HAS NO IDEA WAT THE HELL THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT.POINTS were deducted for this post by Father TorquePlease refer to the forum rules to find out why your points were deducted.

Actually that is not Sony's fault, it is the choice of Square.I don't think there is a lack of creativity. Look at Xbox. GoW, GoW2Halo, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3 ODSTIt is just most of the PS3 games that sony makes were out on the PSX, so that adds alot of years. Here is a little creativity:MGSMGS 2: Sons of LibertyMGS 3: Snake EaterMGS 4: Guns of the Patriots
