The Real Deal6615d ago

Wow...those are low numbers across the board. One thing is for sure. The Japanese love their hand helds. And if you ad the total sales for everything it doesn't even compare to video games sales here in America. What happened to the Japanese gaming market? Well according to a poll in a popular Japanese magizine 67 % think the ps3 is priced to high and 65 % said they will buy a Nintendo Wii and not a ps3. WOW....

MoonDust6615d ago

There is not reason for me to buy a PS3, it doesn';t offer anything that the 360 offers already.

lilgringo6615d ago

it's only a timespan of 6 days

Shadow Flare6615d ago

japanese gamers might think the ps3 is too expensive, but they couldnt care less about buying an xbox 360

The BS Police6614d ago

Ofcourse the PS3 isn't on this chart, how do you think the PS3 will sell when it isn't coming out untill November!

i think your 360 set your house on fire.
what does the 360 have over the original x-box beside good graphics.
well the ps3 has motion sensing, 20G hard drive, web browsing, and blue- ray

OMG it sounds like that stupid comment that ssj also was using all the time. Burning ones house down...

Well I bet the PSZero has more serieus problems with heath seeing their new design with lot's of airholes, the powerbrick not in the console, speed of CPU brought back, GPU also overheated

You should buy something to fight the fire you'll get in your house of the PSZero...

Unions in gaming are necessary fr fr

montebristo1d 8h ago

I used to be anti-union, it kills productivity, investment and turns product mediocre. Their games suck anyways though so what was lost? Might as well get their people paid until they are dissolved.

Unions are necessary regardless of how you feel. You know how fked the working class would be without them. As if we're not already.

montebristo1d 7h ago

No they aren’t, regardless of how you feel. Unions make zero sense for skill based labor. They are for people who press a button every 10 seconds on an assembly line. “working class” is a made up term. I don’t care about corporations or developers, I just want good games lol. Killing your incentives to appease the lowest common denominator doesn’t lead to great games imo

montebristo1d 1h ago (Edited 1d 1h ago )

I wasn’t trying to be offensive if I came off that way. The Union is an old mentality and I can see their usefulness but also the danger. We’re in the age of AI and robots and skill based labor. Unions can be dangerous these days. You could replace your entire workforce in one move. Checkmate. Look to the kiosk replacing workers in the 20 dollar minimum wage era.

Well run businesses don’t need unions. If you need a Union that business won’t survive anyway. Unless it’s propped up by the government with corporate welfare (which is the real issue). If you’re not going to spend some on your workers (Amazon, Google) then your welfare is cut off. No tax breaks. All you put together don’t match their wealth and resources, the union is a traditional memory at this point and counterproductive with this new enemy we face. They need a flying elbow from the top ropes. And by “working class is a made up term” I just mean we’re not a class system and even CEO Bobby Kotick puts in a days work lol. Or did.. It’s just a vague term that doesn’t mean anything no offense lol. People say “middle class” but that can change quick right? Up or down. That’s not a “class system”.
