People only buy PS3's at Amazon or something? Well.. If you are trying to say Amazon sales only represent a small fraction of consoles that are sold brick and morter, then the PS3 must be selling like CRAZY there, no? It's not like because it's Amazon, they prefer to sell the PS3 you know? If the 360 sells X copies vs the PS3's Y copies on Amazon, it probably sells around the same ratio in brick and mortar stores. Get it?
Sounds (and reads, lol) like the 360 is perfect for you then, buddy.
"Sony will have to resign themselves to never making up the 5 million plus sales lead the 360 has and work on making their next console more successful"
This is one of those things Dreamcast owners who never saw Sony's sucker punch used to say. Bookmarked for a future guffaw.
Hold on to your hat. The PS3 is going to absolutely *slaughter* the 360 this Xmas.
And Wii360fan, you must mean MS's new dashboard update, their foray into trying to no...
Has only been reported by a MS email. And while it wouldn't be surprising to see that surge, it's longevity that matters, don't you 360 owners understand that word? Longevity? The ability for something to last? Slumping sales, dying systems, failed HD movie formats, lack of innovation in games and instead milking already shallow gameplay ideas.. Does anything last over there at MS? If it wasn't for hype, why.. They'd have little now wouldn't they? Hype only carries you so far and the fa...
Sony has what you call a "lineup of games that are innovative" and not just rehashes with enemy grabbing abilities. Also, Bluray is a huge draw seeing it's the only HD option for movies and HDTV's will be sold en masse. No retail person would suggest the 360 over the PS3 to an intelligent consumer and the price is just right for the features you get. Consumers know this.
For the first years of the PS3, owners of the system had to endure CONSTANT beratement against Sony, the PS3, and everything revolving around it from not only fellow gamers, but also devs, the entire industry was nearly taking a big crap on it. Now.. Things are changing and dev's are saying nothing but positive things about the PS3 and things have done a 180 on the 360.
Now that things are good for the PS3, the same 360 fanboys that were lambasting the system a year or so ago ...
Sony isn't going to put the PS3 in the bargain bin like MS has done out of desperation to sell consoles. Sony is selling PS3's like crazy now and you don't have to do that. By the holidays, maybe. But with hot titles, BR, and everything else going on with it, it's selling itself.
Now, this "news item" is nothing but expected. Of course sales will increase right off the bat. But it reeks of the *one* week the 360 actually sold more than 12 units in Japan and it wa...
Yes, Fishy Fingers.. An email from Microsoft's marketing dept. is much more reliable than actual Amazon sales figures. Yeeaahhh.. Do you even hear yourself? MS is the king of spin in the gaming arena.
This Bioshock install is such a.. shock? There's been plenty of games that install stuff. Not to mention hard drives are very cheap and easy to install. Get with the program and get a 320 gig HD already and enjoy the premium experience that the install brings to the PS3.
Eat it, Microsoft. Or shall I say.. "MICRO$OFT" - MUAHA.. MUAHAHAHA... *MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! !!!*
... ahem. Little Big Planet it going to rock, that is all.
E-yuck.
And was surprised by how well it played considering how the reviews went. Granted, I've only played TF2 so that might be the issue but man that is some fun stuff. I play on the PC quite a bit also and yes, it sucks using controller sticks to move and shoot, but it's still fun in front of an HDTV with the surround going.
You can get it right here at GameFly for $25:

2009 is going to be a nightmare for the 360.
I can finally play RB and GH3 with both guitars assuming the patch also allows RB guitars to also work with GH3. I almost sold my GH3 and bought another RB guitar too, close one.
As the devs don't have to deal with space limitations and they know every PS3 is capable of getting on the internet for free. Every PS3 also has a harddrive to store larger titles meaning your audience with that storage capability is much larger.
For gamers, it's an easy win as the titles on the PSN are much more varied and original than what the 360 offers. There are no R&C's, no downloadable Burnout or Warhawk, none of that big stuff on 360.
This line here:
"CVG brings you 10 new PSN downloads you have to try..."
In the statement above, before you click the link. Sorry if that's too many words for you guys to read and the title is just right, but uuhh.. Not much else to say. Product as advertised, non-readers.
Also, to be exact, the original post never said he only read the title. Which is funny as you said *he* should read the comment haha..
For your average, non-sitting-on-the-internet-al l-day PS3 buyer, they have no clue Home is coming and in turn aren't disappointed like some are acting. When it comes they will be blown away due to the fact they never saw it coming. The delays were only to increase the quality of the service, not to infuriate fanboys, despite popular opinion.
What you're referring to as "buying" as HOME is free unless you're looking for that sexy virtual pair of pants you just have to have.
Guys, Home is a free service. All of the games, videos, and other things I cannot discuss in Home are all complimentary. Not $5 a month, not $.99 per login, free. So be patient and stop overhyping something only to be disappointed when it gets delayed.
"I'm not playing it unless they release it now." some will s...
It sounds like you were never truly excited for it in the first place is all it takes is time to cause you to lose interest. Once it's here, you'll be in it and loving it now STFU and stop being so melodramatic.
Making the game the best they can on every platform is *much* better than catering to the lowest common denominator. Imagine if they made CoD4 but used the Wii as the basepoint. PS3 owners feel the same about 360 games. We don't want shoddy ports like Mercenaries where the textures were lower res for 360. We want the full benefit of the console we purchased and it would suck hard if gaming devs catered to making the game work and look the same on each and every console.
