A product starts making profit when it reaches break even point and not since the first day of sale. What about the fixed costs like research and development costs which Sony incurred for years prior to launching the PS3? It takes at least takes several months or a year if the product is being sold at a profit to reach break-even point and actually earn profit. Sony was selling PS3 at a loss so they took even more time to reach break-even point and earn profits. The PS2 also earned most of it...

If you havent included Chrono Cross, Xenogears, Final Fantasy 6 and Chrono Trigger then you dont know what you are talking about. No soundtrack list is valid without these games included.

Do you guys want Sony to be profitable or not? You want $800 worth of dollar features for $400 at the launch and now you want Sony to sacrifice whatever profit they may be able to earn from this redesign. Sony is not performing financially well and I see this redesign as a way to increase profitability for PS3. If they reduce the price as well then the redesign is meaningless. They will reduce the price once they are more stable and secure financially and when it direly needed. Price reductio...

Well, it is kind of funny state of affairs in the gaming media. There is always some platform that the media loves to hate each generation. Before WiiU, the PS3 was the favourite whipping boy of the gaming press. Oh well, at least the PS3 has been given a rest from the doom and gloom predictions since WiiU came on the scene. Now its WiiU's turn to enjoy the whipping and spanking.

@StanSmith

Bro, the scenario you are presenting is a different one. When a new generation starts all of the franchises make the shift and people buy the new console to enjoy ALL of their favourite franchises in neg-gen iteration and not just one. The old consoles have become outdated and are being abandoned so their is no option but to move on. In the current scenario the PS360 are still current-gen with comparable hardware performance to the WiiU. All the of the franchises s...

The problem is that people do not want to pay $350 dollar and then $60 for playing Bayonetta. They want their favourite game sequel to be released on the console they have already invested in. People do not have the money to waste on a whole console for playing a single game. That is why they are feeling angry that they are being blackmailed into buying a console IF they want to play a sequel to their favourite game. It is not fanboyism, loyalty or being butt-hurt. Nobody would have been angr...

Man, I dont understand what all this debate is about!? Why the hell are people comparing the supposedly "nex-gen" WiiU with PS3 and XBOX360?? If it is a nex-gen system then compare it to the upcoming PS4 and XBOX720. If it is a current gen system then it is almost 7 years late with marginally improved performance so no big deal even it somewhat trumps them. Seriously, it is just an underpowered 7 year late console. What is so incredible about it that Nintendo fans are defending it l...

My favourite as well. It was the first Final Fantasy that I played. Check my name. :-)

The game looks really choppy. There is no detail in the animations and movements. They just kind of happen without any gradual movements. Character and enemy designs are ugly as hell without any hint of creativity. The game looks easy as well with no depth in the combo system. Damage to Dante's health bar is too low. Moreover, why are the noob previewers able to pull of such long combos and stay in the air for 15 seconds at a time?? They cannot possibly possess the skills if this game req...

PLEASE NO MORE SE!! For God's sake, have mercy on our poor souls. We only want FFVsXIII and a good main numbered game in the series. Is that too much to ask??? Well we also want an FF7 remake but no use asking for that since you are stubborn as a mule on that issue.

Where are all the PS Vita bashers now? Just yesterday they were whining how Sony only released 9 PSone games as soon as the compatibility was made available. These new 26 games will surely shut their mouths. More games will be coming soon!

Man, these CAPCOM execs are really delusional. Come on! Just release the game already so you guys can wake up to reality when you see the sales. I will speak with my wallet! Even if I ever feel like playing it I will just download a pirated version on my PC but I will never give CAPCOM my money!

I agree that they aren't real and nothing to drool over but it is better to have to look at something beautiful than something ugly. I just mean that Namco should improve their Tekken female character models to look more feminine and proportionate body-wise. No more giant hands, feet and shoulders.

It is a SHEMALE!! LOL! I have always felt that Tekken in-game female character models look ugly. Look at Dead or Alive 5; now those are some cute, hot and sexy females!

There is nothing wrong with the Final Fantasy franchise and killing it will solve nothing. Each Final Fantasy is a different game so they can return to the roots any time they want. The problem is that the current management is not admitting that they are going in the wrong direction with the franchise and do not realize what the old fans want. Moreover, sadly the times have changed... western games have risen and western people feel more at home with their characters, stories and gameplay. T...

CAPCOM will do their best to curb the negative backlash from the old fans and one way to do that is to pay the gaming media to hype DmC. I just do not understand what do the media find so interesting and fresh about this game? Is it the gimicky transforming city, the ugly westernised characters, the 30fps dumbed down gameplay or anti-corporation theme? I have read many previews which state that it is REALLY easy to pull off amazing combos and I really fear that the gamplay has been dumbed dow...

First they said that about Leon's campaign and since now the truth has been revealed they are claiming the same thing for Ada's campaign. They cant do both things of attracting the shooter crowd and keeping happy the survival horror fans at the same time. They have to make up their mind what they want the series to be. Capcom used to be such great publisher with classic Resident Evil, Breath of Fire, Dino Crisis and Megaman. Now they are runing franchises one after another; first resi...

"Dante's combos are easy to pull off". I am worried even more about that statement than Dante himself. I might have given the game a chance if I was sure that the game-play and combos still required skills and knowledge of the gameplay mechanics. I really hope they havent dumbed down the gameplay like what happened to Ninja Gaiden 3 just to lure the casuals and new kids who avoid a game at the slightest hint of difficulty or challenge.

LOL! You really summed it up bro. I liked how you put it. Yeah the PS2 was the golden age and some may even argue that the golden age was the PS1. Anyway PS1 and PS2 days were when we had complete games on disc where we could unlock everything just by accomplishing different feats instead of buying them. It was the era when we could easily find AAA games in any genre and play them. It was also the time when games were artistic with emotions, story, music and lovable characters. Therefore, yea...

You are right. I am tired of all these doom sensationalized articles. One quarter of losses and suddenly a multi-billion dollar is going bankrupt?? Bullshit! Just an advice for all the PS3 gamers here; do not click on any anti-Sony/Playstation article link and give the website a hit. Just do not pay attention and they will die out on their own.
