360 cheaper than piles of sh1ts and still people dotn want it

if 360 cost less that cow manure and people buy that more than 360 that shows cow sh1t has far better value for your money and far more use

PS3 sells more only because of BR. Summer is movie season. Bad software sales proves that.

morganfell6147d ago (Edited 6147d ago )

When is the other big movie season? That's right, Thanksgiving thru Christmas. You know, the big shopping season. You are also wrong about people only buying the PS3 as a Bluray player. Just ask EA who their biggest software seller happens to be.

theKiller6147d ago (Edited 6147d ago )

stay in denial, thats the only way for bots like u to survive!
ps3 outsold 360 even in winter and spring!! is that movie season too??
it even outsold the 360 in 2007 with a high price and no games as u bots say!

and it will outsell it this holiday season and in 2008 and in every time! the only time 360 have a change to outsell the ps3 is in NA and when there is AAA game release! even price cut is not doing any good for 360!!

MS 360 is in desperation now and trying to cut the prices of their cheap console!!

nothing will help the 360 and i mean nothing, if there was something we would have seen it already with the year of 360(2007)

why so serious bots??

whoelse6148d ago

With the Elite and 80GB PS3 at the same price, it clearly shows that the PS3 has far better value.

BrotherNick6147d ago

Value maybe in the way we perceive it...most people just look at price and games.

DavidMacDougall6147d ago

Soon the xbox will be free but live will cost you 200 dollars a year

KingME6147d ago

Is the the original BC 80gig you're talking about or the 40 gig version with a hard drive upgrade.

whoelse6147d ago

The PS3 has the best lineup of games this year and next.

DJ6147d ago

Microsoft doesn't even want to show off their 2009 lineup, and the only big 360 game left for this year is Gears of War.

AAACE56147d ago

120 gb vs 80 gb...OK I guess! But that's not important!

At $199, I think the threat goes to the Wii the most, and 360 has potential to steal some fire from it, especially with the RPG's coming!

Ps3 and 360 will battle for a while so that debate can get discussed at a later date! But the Wii is the real leader of this war, and it looks like MS are not only 'trying' to beat Ps3, but are desperate to take some of Wii's sales... Hence the $80 price cut!

This should be interesting!

chop 150 bucks off of that Elite and i'll bite.....go ahead MS, I'll wait.

chrisnick6147d ago

a price cut now wouldn't make much of a difference...i figure even if they do manage to outsell the ps3 in the fall (which is unlikely looking at the software exclusives lineup)....the drought of exclusive games after gears2 won't help against the ps3's lineup around christmas and all of 2009.

iMad6147d ago

If so, then you are not a gamer at all...:)

KingME6147d ago

Just simply being an exclusive isn't good enough (i.e. Too Human) The exclusive also must be a system selling exclusive to really have an impact as an exclusive.

So instead of blindly counting exclusives, you should be counting A - AAA exclusives.

chrisnick6147d ago (Edited 6147d ago )

i never said all that now....gears will be played and beaten within days...fable2 as well.....but what im saying is......after that.....what is left for hardcore gamers exclusively on the 360?....and we all know gears2 won't push sales alot for 360 and in november gears may very still be competing with lbp and resistance still...from october there will be a downpour of the ps3 lineup... gears will sell, that's a no brainer, but sony's lineup owns both consoles after that....that is, unless ms has some stuff they're not telling us is huge and exclusive.

solidsnakus6147d ago

what are you talking about? what does sony have thats so spectacular? all i see is LBP, and resistance 2. thats one killer fall line up alright ... meh.

chrisnick6147d ago (Edited 6147d ago )

sigh... always hated being one of those "list the games" ppl........but here goes...lbp,motorstorm2,resista nce2,socom,naruto,wipeouthd,bi o shock,singstar2...i think that's it for pre gears, uhh...after gears?...mostly 2009 but here it is.....flower,rag doll kung fu (LBP makers),KILLZONE2,the agency,fat princess,RATCHET&CLANK SEQUEL,eyepet,afrika,dc online universe,FFV13,GT5,HEAVY RAIN,INFAMOUS,JAK AND DAXTER :LOST FRONTIER,MAG(hopefully),ROCKST AR PS3 EXCLUSIVE,TEKKEN6,TWISTED METAL,WHITE KNIGHT CHRONICLES,..........ok im tired of typing...i think those are all the exclusives for ps3 from october till 2009...if i missed any let me know....there u go man...one fall into the next....now be quiet.

Esena6147d ago

For exclusives sure...but you also forgot about SOCOM (which has a huge online fanbse) and Motorstorm: PR which is the most impressive looking off-road racing game i've seen. I am personally interested in the Valkyrie Chronicles game coming out and also Bioshock and Eternal Sonata (even though they were previously on the 360, they are new to ps3 this year)

It sure is the best lineup, including all the multi-plat games (Fallout 3, Dead Space, Far Cry 2, etc...) The 360 has a nice fall ahead of it as well...but I just don't think it can compare.

solidsnakus6147d ago (Edited 6147d ago )

i dont see how you say ps3 has the best lineup when all it has is LBP,R2,and motorsttorm2(since when is that a AAA game?) and socom i guess. the 360 has GeOW2,fable2,left 4 dead,tales of V,infinite undiscovery,lost remnant,and gta4 expansion, oh and halowars but its probably only B average. and then theres the entire remake of the 360 dashboard+game installs! sorry but you probably forgot about all the rpgs when you were thinking about the 360s lineup or dont care about em . but the 360 fall lineup is way stronger than sonys measly 2 AAA games.(M2,and socom arent anything special)

iHEARTboobs6147d ago (Edited 6147d ago )

"i dont see how you say ps3 has the best lineup when all it has is LBP,R2,and motorsttorm2(since when is that a AAA game?)" - Motorstorm on metacritic is on par with Fable. Last Remnant is also going to be on the PS3. As for left for Dead, what's so special about that one? It looks average. Nothing special. No AAA there. But that's my opinion and what it all basically comes down to, everyone's personal opinion. And as far as Socom, it has a large following so it is something special.

Tacki6147d ago

Though you may not think SOCOM is anything special... it has a larger following than that of Fable... and you put Fable 2 on your list. Even if you don't like the series... many do. Just like I'm not a big fan of Fable, but I respect those who do enjoy that title and understand that gamers can have differing opinions. There's no right or wrong in most cases.

Which is why when it comes to who has the 'best' lineup... it's all depends on your preferrences. Personally, I have more games I want this fall for my PS3... but I think both lineups are pretty solid.

Well its MS news... those are usually pretty dry, unless it has something to do with another game being ported to PS. then its top of the pops.

Oh look no further than the "Upcoming layoffs at MS" topic. It will easily top the Hottest of the week.

Special guests like Mr. Dead might also show up. You just watch.

Playdead co-founder slammed with lawsuit as bitter row with co-founder escalates

Playdead co-founder Dino Patti is allegedly being sued by his former studio and business partner.
Patti was threatened with a lawsuit earlier this year after he posted a now-deleted LinkedIn post that shared an "unauthorized" picture of co-founder Arnt Jensen and discussed some of Limbo's development. Patti said Jensen demanded a little over $73,000 in "suitable compensation and reimbursement," adding that he had "repeatedly" had such letters over the last nine years.

The score for the first Plants Vs Zombies is such great, iconic music that it has a timeless quality. Not quite the level of Minecraft, but wonderful in its own right.
