PS3 sales spike on Amazon after SGD '07 event

Apparently the plethora of triple-A title announcements and jaw-dropping screen shots from SGD '07 drew up a fervor of PS3 interest for UK customers. Amazon.co.uk listed the PS3 as the coveted "most popular item." In comparison, the Xbox 360 Premium console is listed at number six, with the DS Lite "Black" at number five and the Nintendo Wii at number eight. With all the excitement over the last few days, it's good to see the PS3 install base growing with some praise and much-needed attention.

I'm telling you guys, they don't need a price cut, they just need to get the games out and people are starting to see that the games are coming.

gta_cb6177d ago

sorry but i disagree, with the competition from MS and Nintendo Wii, i DEFF think they need a price cut. com on its not like you wouldnt want them to get even more people buying it... is it? ;)

consolewar6177d ago

fanboys. They need a price cut if they want to sell as good as the PS2. PERIOD

Robotz Rule6177d ago

Expect some MAJOR PS3 sales come 08.

alsef076177d ago

KEEP EXPECTING, I GUESS ITS EVERYTHING THAT SONY CAN DO FOR NOW

ElementX6177d ago

Fools............. only a moron would buy a system because of future releases. By the time most of those are released, maybe the PS3 would come down in price, that's when i'm going to buy one.

XxZxX6177d ago

hmmmmmm there are games to play in PS3 and Blu-ray movies to watch now you know.

gta_cb6177d ago

same here. also with the Xbox 360 line up, i will deff be spending all/most of my time on the Xbox 360 if i brought a PS3 anyway.

Torch6177d ago

"...only a moron would buy a system because of future releases..."

XxZxX almost took the words right outta my mouth:

Then what would you call someone who would buy a system because of HD Blu-Ray movies, a decent lineup of current games, AND future releases?

ElementX6177d ago (Edited 6177d ago )

When I bought my 360, I bought 4 games with it. Condemned, Kameo, Call of Duty 2, and PDZ. Right now I don't see 4 games on PS3 that I want to buy. I don't care much for HD-DVD and BluRay movies. My DVD collection looks just fine to me. No need to spend extra cash on re-releases of movies I already own. I'm just talking about me, I'm sure others can justify their PS3 purchases now, but I just don't see the reason AT THIS TIME.

Torch6177d ago

Nothing at all wrong with that.

Different strokes for different folks, right?

Mine just happen to include all the juicy goodness that the PS3 has to offer...including Blu-Ray movies.

ElementX6177d ago

Yes, different strokes. I prefer the left-handed....

spacetoilet6177d ago

Those four games you bought when you got that 360 are all crap.
Simple as.

bootsielon6176d ago

For 3 reasons:

1. Virtua Fighter is awesome, and it was gonna take a long time to arrive on 360 (I'm a fan of fighters).
2. The PS3 in the states still has the Emotion Engine, so I didn't want to wait till the PS2 chipset was dropped. Yeah, cheaper perhaps, and they might have been able to achieve 100% compatibility by then. But you never know... so I took the safe root.
3. There are plenty of upcoming games I want.

The last reason wasn't my only reason, as you can see, but it was definitely one. If these reasons were isolated, I wouldn't have done it, but I bought it for the combination all 3. So no, you're not necessarily a moron if you bought it for that; you are a moron if you bought it exclusively for that, and you have no plans to play any games currently available on PS3.

ElementX6176d ago

Sorry for my ranting last night :( I had too many beers :) and I was a little upset over my evening plans falling through :(

He did a track guide for Neurnberg 24 in GTsport.

We have had no more content since then, maybe a few time trail modes, I believe there was one from Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstapen as well, due to the red bull partnership.

Back to Lewis, He STILL wears the Gran Turismo logo on his caps, every weekend Formula One races take place.

I was expcting more from this sponsorship, oh well. This video, is kinda rubbing salt into the wound, for me

LG_Fox_Brazil2d ago

That Driver tutorial still haunts my dreams. That parking lot saw me fail a thousand times

Not a single Reistance? Fuck this article.

mastershredder3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Starhawk over Warhawk?...... Dude, NO ONE should listen to you.

Odd choices for "best" more like you settled as these being the "best" that available to you at the time, cause a lot of these blow or were average to poor performers that ended up in bargain bin.

Missing too many great sci-fi titles here. The Void, The Resistance Series, Killzone 2 and 3, Enslaved, man.. there were so many, this is redicu-list.

FreeckyCake3d ago

Nobody should listen to you either with that attitude.

OtterX2d ago

I agree that Starhawk shouldn't be above Warhawk, however I must say that Starhawk multiplayer was incredible for its time! Many people wrote it off bc the single player was quite terrible, bc it was basically 1 huge tutorial for the multiplayer. But I can tell you never spent any significant amount of time in MP. It was doing incredibly tense base building w air, foot and land vehicle (and mech!) combat long before Fortnite was ever a thing.

I bet it would have been much better received if it had just ditched the story mode all together. So many people like yourself completely wrote it off based on reviews by reviewers that let the criticism of single player weigh heavily on their scores. I bet you didn't even play it.

Friendlygamer3d ago

The riddick games are some of the best stealth titles ever, highly underrated

YourMommySpoils3d ago

What games? All recall plating was Escape from Butcher Bay.

Friendlygamer3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

There's also the less acclaimed 'assault on dark Athena'

( also, not saying this to you specifically but there's both resistance and killzone games on the list, it's amazing how even something so simple and innocent as a game list can be turned into misinformed vitriol here lol )

jznrpg3d ago

Glad to see Resonance of Fate. Enslaved was pretty good too. I’m sure there are others nobody has listed but I’m too tired to try and think of anything
