MGM, Disney and I'm sure a lot more will be delivering content on XBL.
All these Blu-ray supporters will be on XBL and I still do not see where this format war may have hurt MS?
MS strategy was an Open one and they will go whichever way the wind blows..
-Killa AAA titles on DVD9(that's right blu-ray never meant quality)
-Software sales up the yingyang
-Attach rate is crazy
-Developers taking notice, and more games to come.
with the amount of DOE MS has, this big number of users was not expected...
They will add more servers in the farm. Actually I would like to see a picture of this server farm. Anyone?
all the talk of ultimate 360 BS.
So disney, MGM and all other people soon offering stuff on XBL. Well all of them Blu-Ray supporters, so where did MS loose in this again?
MS is gonna have a great year...
For the guy above me this is not E3, WTF were you excpecting? A new Xbox ultimate?
One can say the same about PS3 hardware vs software sales...
beats me..
Sony exits future Cell development
Japanese electronics giant pulls out of research and production facilities for high-powered processor; ramps investment in image-sensor tech.
Notice RESEARCH keyword.
"Last month, Sony confirmed speculation that it would be selling its stake in Cell manufacturing plants to development partner Toshiba. Although financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, Bloomberg reported that the deal will raise $860 million for...
but will follow. There is no need to lead. Of course sony will not win a price war either. With Ms software sales, a price war can get nasty.
I clearly fail to see how fanbosy attach HD-DVD to MS when the 360 doe snot use the drive for gaming purposes and uses DVD9. For some reason it is still proving you can still make AAA titles, without the need for big space.
Sony has had Blu-Ray from the start, and look at their software sales, hardware sales and attach rate? 3rd Place.
Blu-ray has not mean much, and still does not scream quality. Space is nice but looking at the 360/wii's hardware sales that's m...
you people just don't know technology. Most of you fanboys probably hear toshiba and think HD-DVD.
Do some research and you'll see Toshiba is involves in lots of things just as sony.
did you even know there are a big part of the cell technology sony uses in the PS3?
This site has a bunch of dums dums on here..
now what will really hurt Sony is the news of the format war in relation to who is really buyin gthe console as a movie player or just a gaming console?
The fact remains the games have not sold like they should. I wonder if there will be a spike in sale of the console as movie enthusiest rush to get one.
Only big software sales can lead us to believe the majority is buying the console for games. I'm not talking about 3-4 games coming out next year, not every own...
that gamelist fails hard....
wow all your comments are cut and paste, now your spamming.

What the little network issue live had for 3 days all the sudden nobody wants to buy the console? It's funny any little hiccup the xbox 360 might have, all the sudden nobody wants to buy it.
now the RROD issue was big for 2007 and if any problem that could of crippled the sales of the 360, it would of been that issue, and while it did bother some of the sales, the console still sold well enough, besides the wii catching it.
Just like your satellite tv may go out ...
Ever since that 2.0 upgrade something changed with the fan kicking in more often than it used to.
You know I just thought about something,
XBOX games have always looked better then PS counterparts in any generation. It has been no different with the 360 year start.
Then again this guy wants everyone to buy his game.
I'm not sure if this has anything to do with xbox fans, I've heard worst stories than that. I forgot this is n4g.
Well don't they just love eachother.There is osme thing more serious here than an xbox.
so the first xbox 360 martyr.
the next gears of war 2 should of been a prequal, which would showcase some of the history of feenix's father.
with this game would it be before everything went under water.
it's only one format. People act like toshiba is going under or something. Sony knows how to handle these format defeats better than anyone.
what will be interesting is the next console, since toshiba is in on the Cell with IBM, notice sony copt out.
is right where they wanna be. Fix them RROD issue and you'll sell more consoles. We already know the software sales is killin em.
Maybe some surprise games would be nice...
Yeah but look at
-Software
-Attach Rate
-Hardware sales(Steady)
-XBL infrastructure and the content on there that sold.
-The AAA titles that sold well over 1 million
-Game of the year nominations
-IPTV
See stop thinking small, there a lot that goes into a big year. Now if MS can continue with Top Games and Content, and erase the RR issue, there are golden in 08, regardless of what the competitors do.
