There's no doubting that the PlayStation 3's first couple years have been a little rocky, as worldwide sales figures currently put the system firmly in third place. The biggest knock against the system, since launch, has been its price. Launching at $500 and $600, it was much more expensive than the Xbox 360 right off the shelf. However, when you took things like its built-in WiFi into account or stacked it up against standalone Blu-ray players, the PlayStation 3 actually turned out to be a great value.
But how does it stand today? As Blu-ray player prices spiral downward, especially players launched recently for this holiday season, and with the Xbox 360 having seen price cuts this year, is the PS3 still a great value despite it being the most expensive out-of-the-box console?
Over the last 25 years, there has been a fair few South Park games, and here GameSpew has ranked them all from best to worst.
We are going to see a lot of crap South Park products since they sold out to paramount years ago. It's their IP they can sell out, of course; it just means the quality of their show has tanked and other products as well. Nevertheless, they put on excellent musicals, but those haven't been sold to a mega corporation.
Game Rant chats with the creator of No More Heroes about who he would like to see play the role of Travis Touchdown in a live-action adaptation.
Actually Ryan Gosling makes a ton of sense.
Edit: If this can be done in a Scott Pilgrim movie kind of way that would be dope.
The Opening Levels that hooked gamers from the outset.
IGN forgot to add the costs of an xbox 360 controller charger and the $50 dollars a year for the xbox 360 live. Other than that, I do agree with almost everything that was written in that article
Buy the console u want to buy.If u want to buy both like me then do so.If u cannot afford a ps3 then wait till u have enough money to buy it... ENOUGH SAID..... (-_-)
What ever fuels the fire?
After looking at the options for both of these systems it kinda makes me wonder why the Wii is so damn expensive?
The thing is people know what they want. You have different people who want future proof hardware and knowing that the games from their previous console will eventually be release on the new hardware, and you have people who just want a cheap console with some good games here and there.
When or if the 80gig ps3 drops in price to $299, people will be asking microsoft to justify why they should buy the 60gig 360 for $299 when the ps3 has built in blu ray, wifi, 20gig more hdd space and free online play.
Basically what i'm saying is that the p3 has value and people who do their research know what to buy. Lets not forget that half the PS# fanbase hasn't upgraded to next gen as of yet.
The final thing i must point out is that, this console gen will be decided on the games that are exclusive to a platform. Games for the ps3 are coming in quantities and quality in the near future and with games like killzone 2, uncharted 2, MAG, gow3, gt5, war devil and many more along with some exclusive PSN titles the ps3's success is surely inevitable.
OBAMA!!!
