      I think the system has some good games, but I'm also sort of bitter since it was the beginning of games chasing casual gamers with endless tutorials that treat you like a moron, almost every game having brown/grey graphics, a majority of games being shooters/sports/racing games, and so many amazing franchises from the PS2 era and before completely died off because they couldn't sell in the primarily casual market. Some of those problems have been fixed since then with subsequent generations, but others are still an issue to this day.

    Fantastic work on this video!

Recently hit 400 games in my PS3 library, PS3 will never die!
