Silly Xbots still pretending the dead HD-DVD format is relevant.
Here's the real headline(de-Xbotized):
"BluRay drive manufacturing prices continue to plummet leading to cheaper PS3 and standalone prices"
This is that crappy BioWare game with the last gen graphics right?
With the 360 dead in two out of three console markets I guess handing out 10/10s for crap is all the Xbots have left to try to save the Dreamcast 360.
This week's Media Create numbers:
Wii 27,502
PS3 18,785
Down to just 50 percent more. And the biggest Wii game just got released to mediocre sales, only 130k for Super Mario Galaxy.
Next...
40 gig models come with 1.92 currently.
First, who the hell would ever visit a pc game fanboy site like Shacknews for advice on buying a console?
Second, the 20 and 60 gig models are no longer are produced and aren't an option anymore outside of buying a used console or from some store that still has a few remaining models in stock.
40 gig PS3 - Plays all PS3 games, plays all BluRay movies PS1 BC, no PS2 BC
80 gig PS3 - Plays all PS3 games, plays all BluRay movies, PS1 BC, PS BC
*RRoD 40 percent failure rate
* 60 dollar disc destroying/scratching drives
* Jet engine loud drive and fans
* Forced to pay 50 dollars a year for the privilege of playing games online - add 200-250 dollars to the price
* Crappy online service - no dedicated servers, the infamous Xbox P2P lag in games like Gears of War, Halo 3
* Crappy online game sizes - only 8 players max for Gears of War, only 16 players max for Hal...
Nelson points at Master X 24's dead HD-DVD format...
"Ha Ha!"
Not only is it wonderful that the superior tech BluRay won the next gen media format war, but the awesome feeling of knowing that thousands of Microsoft fanboys/Xbots are burning with rage and despair over the fact is simply priceless.

Rock > Dead HD-DVD Format Player
back in the REAL WORLD...
BluRay utterly dominates Japan.
BluRay utterly dominates Europe.
BluRay utterly dominates North America.
There are about to be sold more BluRay playing PS3s over the next two holiday months than the dead HD-DVD format has sold in its entire time on the market. And that isn't even including standalone players.
No one cares about a one day sale of a crappy discontinued 1080i only player for a dead format.

What you tried to write: "Price cut spurs Xbox 360 sales at Japan retailer"
What actually came out: "Dreamcast 360 still dead in Japan"
Just give up on Japan, stick to trying to spin European sales where the 360 isn't as obviously dead in the market yet.
It just keeps getting better and better!
The Xbots have finally turned into Dreamcast freaks completely. Desperately sitting around in console forums trying to convince the world that their crappy and underpowered system is worth owning.
Love it! So amazingly pathetic!
You know those pathetic Dreamcast freaks who pop up in PS2 discussions every once in a while until they get laughed right out of the forum?
Xbots, that's you in two to...
"universally praised for it's graphics"
LOL!!!!
Oh god, you're going to make me shoot Coke out my nose if you keep it up!
Gears of War, the crappy UE3 based game that:
* Has usually no more than 2-5 characters on screen at once.
* Tiny, constrained rooms to limit the poly count/draw amounts.
* Outside areas that have usually no more than 20-30 foot draw distances.
* Backgrounds b...
"Overall I think it looks great, better than gears of war"
That is hilarious! You are actually using Gears of War on the 360 as some sort of graphical benchmark???
LOL!

"Infinity Ward personally assured us that development occurred simultaneously on all three platforms, and that there wasn't a base system. With that said, the console similarities end when it comes to textures, lighting and resolutions, because those three areas make the PlayStation 3 version definitely excel over the Xbox 360 SKU. "
Watch the ...
What a bunch of pathetic losers!
GOTY!!! LOL!
This is just a clearance sale of the old model players. People are probably picking up copies to sell years from now as novelty items on eBay.
Looks at worldwide BluRay vs the dead HD-DVD format sales.
Yep, HD-DVD still dead...
Another Unreal Engine Disaster.
Golly, another UE3 game that looks like crap once the REAL in game screenshots finally come out. BioWare use to be such a quality developer, now all they care about is putting out pathetic UE3 marketing renders of silly alien faces.
What's next for Rare?
Another crappy 360 exclusive that is hyped by the usual Xbot sites like EGM and 1UP and does nothing to help worldwide sales of the floundering console.
