Americans like turn-based RPGs. Americans don't like crappy turn-based RPGs. I'm looking at you FF13.
I COMPLETELY disagree with your #2 point. Have you never played PSN or XBL download games? They can be a LOT of fun, and provide a completely different experience. They're designed to be more "pickup and play" and for shorter periods of time (sometimes).
I love videogames. But I don't wanna always fire up a lengthy, story-heavy game. Sometimes I've got 20 mins to burn and I wanna fire up a sweet arcade-style game.
Some of my favorite PS...
I heard the "MS didn't include any red lights" thing before too, but that was wrong. They just included the red light "dot" in the middle, rather than around the power button.
Either way kinda makes me laugh. Have you guys ever seen Office Space? The scene were they discover Milton isn't actually an employee but was still receiving checks.
"So you've taken care of things, and talked to him?"
"No...
Open YOUR eyes. It has been well publicized for YEARS that 360's fail at an unprecedented rate. MUCH higher than the Wii and PS3...or every other console in history for that matter.
The fact that Microsoft STILL hasn't fixed this reflects either ineptitude or ignorance, both of which REALLY inspire confidence in a hardware maker.
But hey, failing systems has helped MS keep their sales up over the years. Why stop now?
In Microsoft's defense, the poster might just be REALLY bad with technology. After all, his pictures show that he bet on HDDVD rather than blu-ray. So maybe he's just bad luck.
Way to show your ignorance man...have you even ever played a PSP?
Obviously we can't argue numbers: Clearly the DS is outselling the PSP by a significant margin. But let's not pretend that makes the PSP a failure for Sony. They are making a lot of money on the PSP, and it is a wonderful system.
I didn't even buy a PSP until one year ago, and I have absolutely LOVED this purchase. Getting to play superb games from marquee franchises like Crisis Cor...
Such an unnecessary post. Go away.
Infected:
You most definitely WERE flamebaiting. There's no need to talk about the PS3 here.
I'm a Sony-only user and I STILL think you were flamebaiting. Just because you say, "I don't mean to..." doesn't get you off the hook. You're like the guy who says "I don't want to be racist, but..." and then drops a racial slur.
This article is about the 360. Not the PS3. No need to list ps3 features. ...
I might have to pick one up..haven't yet owned a 360.
All these "journalists" are idiots. He NEVER said that "Steam," in its most recognized sense, was coming to the PS3. He never talked about being able to download other games. Or ANYTHING like that.
All he mentioned was updates being pushed directly to the console.
Look, I'm a ps3 only user. And i would LOVE Steam to come to the ps3. but that's not what he said. let's get it right.
Yes, I know. thanks for the needless correction.
The point is...analysts point out SHIPMENTS with Microsoft because those are the numbers Microsoft has been report for YEARS to overstate their success.
Have you ever played a Wii? And have you watched the Move videos?
If you think it's a wii clone, you're either an idiot or just plain lying.
And in true MS fashion, we're discussing SHIPMENTS rather than, you know, UNITS SOLD.
garbage.
N4G king--Portal 2 isn't an exclusive.
I was excited about this at first...until I found out it's just a remake of MGS3.
If I wanna play MGS3, I'll just put it into my ps3 and fire it up. This isn't going to be the "OMG I want a 3Ds now!" that Peace Walker was last year. oh well.
See it for yourselves:

Just a MGS3 remake. ::::sigh::...
LOL.
Squared "DARED" to make a linear game. Pushing the envelope!
Really? You guys don't get the hate?
This gaming is BORING AS HELL.
To say otherwise is to just blindly support anything Square does.
Did you really enjoy running straight forward for 30 hours?
Add me to the FFXIII crowd. I've been a Playstation gamer since Final Fantasy 7 came out, and I've played all since then.
FFXIII is a piece of crap.
The irony is that we're MOST likely to get the "Switch to Easy Mode" message after we fall off a bunch of cliffs...which isn't made any easier by the change haha.
Jordan on the cover doesnt matter THAT much. What matters is that the NBA2K series has been worlds ahead of EA for years now and THAT'S why it'll outsell elite.
