On NDP, you see that the PS3 sold many more consoles when it was $599.00, then what it sold AFTER THE CURRENT PRICE CUT.

Why on earth do people think a price cut will affect the outcome this time?

free3sixty in another comments thread said this:

The hardcore gamer doesnt care about the price and has all consoles at home. But the casual one will always take the cheaper one.

"Also if you look on NPD sales, you will see that the PS3 sold better for 599 USD as now for 399, lol. Its like MART says, the hardcore gamer dont cares about the price and has all consoles at home. But the casual one will always take the cheaper one."

whoa, I didn't notice that.

Bubbles up for that gem.

the real ownage is that the 360 doesn't have those exclusives and the PS3 is STILL behind.

The amount of resources it takes to develop for the PS3 is very high. The reason why first party devs (and some third party devs) have such success with the system is that they are subsidized by Sony Entertainment. This is where Guerilla got the sixty million ($60,000,000.00) to make Killzone 2. Other companies that have been subsidized by Sony are: Naughty Dog, Insomniac, and Factor 5 (for Lair).

Third party devs that DON'T get any subsidies, are forced to work with their ...

One of those games that looks so much better in motion. The shots are good, but I think the animation will make the outlook on this game more whole.

I sure hope it won't pit console players against PC users...I played this the other day and got stomped. And I was on a mouse.

...maybe I should just break down and get the xfps sniper or xim or something...

I think they're trying to make Avatars the new collectible item or the baseball card of 21st century. I honestly think that there is a little girl in every gamer that wants to play dress up with dollies and relive their lost childhood...

No one would have expected the trailer to be the result if Sony hadn't touted it to be a "target render" for the final product. The failure to deliver the target render tarnished a lot of names. It's important to note that this method of "promotion" is no longer used by anyone because it only sets the consumer up for unrealistic expectations.

Good for Motorstorm.

Honestly, though, this was one of those games that notoriously hyped itself out of sales with the most mind-bending carnage filled trailer only to significantly disappoint with a game that, although being impressive and fun, was considerably less impressive physically and graphically.

A new Wing Commander could be a franchise glory. I wonder if EA can still get Mark Hamill and Malcolm McDowell...

This is the only intelligent comment thus far.

This viral marketing full of rumors and fuzzy photos of advertisements is just an awful way of trying to foster hype. Just awful.

What kind of bombshell can affect someone who has suffered these speculations for nearly a year.

It's frustrating.

If this is the real price, I will definitely pick up a PS3. Just gimme some certainty so I can start setting some cash aside.
