Massive damage! Second jobs! Spider-Man font! Boy, I'll tell you what, the PlayStation 3 has been entertaining at times—and that's not even when the console's switched on. The PS3 has produced some of the best (and most loved) memes of this generation.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
"According to Kutaragi, said the PS3 is "for consumers who think to themselves 'I will work more hours to buy one'. We want people to feel that they want it, irrespective of anything else." Anyone get a second job to pay for theirs?"
THIS has always bugged me. KK took a gamble on an expensive console and tries to raise PR morale in the original interview by bestowing confidence on the console's capabilities and the upcoming games. This obviously failed because of the GPU downgrade, the early dev tools and games not only having delays but not meeting expectations upon release. STILL, before all that happened, Joystiq took that small portion of the inter AND EQUATED IT INTO THIS:
"In other words: Get a job! Get two jobs, ya lazy bums!"

I still use the "Massive Damage" one, usually on COD games when my bullets do nothing but one bullet from someone else does massive damage to me.
Oh I remember when Xbox fans kept saying no games. Funny how the tabled turned short after that.
PS3 has no gamez. ;)
