As i have been saying since they announced 220,000 units at launch that they wont sell out!

it took the Wii 5 weeks over christmas to sell 200,000 so i expect EVERY store to have a few left on launch day. Retaillers will have consoles available to everyone that wants one a week after launch if not on the first day.

Play.com and Amazon.co.uk (probably will sell the most between them) are still taking preorders and I believe they will have consoles for sale on laun...

if you are right about the update been a download and not already on the system, what about users that do have the internet?

i thought they would ship the new systems already with the update

other than the setting they seem similar to me in terms of genre,

the best part of what he said was about not having buttons flash up on screen during sequences.

i really liked Indigo Prophecy but you never watched the action, you are just watching for button presses.

Still unless they bring something completely unexpected to this game, its still going to be button masher

Agree, not sure if this should be posted, its only a blog, elementx's or Deepbrown's most wanted list would just be aa post worthy if this is.

It should be free as there is a key difference between Live and Home...

surely Sony can generate enough money between adverts, Like deepbrown said sponsor homes etc, user content.

i think Americans forget that HDTV is new in the UK!

would love Sky HD, new TV and and console but that would be alot of money!

I agree that £425 for a 'games console' is alot but Sony is not selling a 'games console' it is supposedly selling so much more

I dont own either console what I am wanting to buy in May when i return to england. For a student either console is alot of money that people need to think about before purchasing.

I feel now, especially with the PS3, you are buying cutting edge technology. If you buy any new technology at the start of its life it going to be expens...

The interesting part about Second Life is that they announced that they have more 4 million sign ups but it is rumored that only 500,000 use regularly.

Well Deepbrown,

I go to University in Nottingham and have 2 lived in two of the worst ares of the city (Radford and St Anns)

Yes i agree Nottingham has high gun compared to the rest of the UK but thats because you have low gun crime compared to most other countries.

UK poverty is spoken about alot as its so high and Nottingham is a key example of over populating and an influx of immigrates and migrates.

First time buyers are struggl...

Do you realise how wrong you are Deepbrown? have you got any statistics or facts to back up what you just said?

here are some UK facts for you:

- 7th highest Employment rate in the world
- 2nd highest GDP in Europe
- out of the top 15 universities there are only 5 from europe, 4 of them are from the UK (2 out of the top 5 in fact)
- 5th lowest unemployment rate

- minimum wage per year in the UK is $19,098 compared to the US $...

"In case you've forgotten he's the idiot who offered $1200 for anyone who could find a PS3 sitting on a store shelf even though tons of PS3's could be found sitting on store shelves"

To be fair, people have a go at Phil because he usually talks alot of rubbish. One statement that comes to mind is "Rumble is Last Gen"

i think he is starting to feel better about his companies offering and is starting to realise that he doesnt have to lie to sell consoles.

I definately agree that the PS3 cant not support a title like GTA4 on it own.

the bubble system is easy to understand:

act like a fanboy = lose bubbles

post with common sense (can still be biased) = keep bubbles

Add intelligent comments on all platforms - extra bubbles

its actually a surprisingly big download, as far as I am aware Second Life is only 30mb

just out of interest, does anyone here use Seoond Life? i have had to use it at work but i have not been very impressed

Ok sounds great, I have a few questions which i havent seen answered:

- will a unified friends list be visable in Home?
- will you be able to see where your friends are in the world?
- when you start a game from within Home, will you exit to Home?

just wondering :)

I think its fair to say that it will be funded by advertising.

and by people who buy premium products (Not sure why anyone would actually want to do that but i sure many will!!!)

just keep the assists on, especially the racing line as it tell you when to brake.

There is alot of details in the game but if it is like the first one then you dont have to do alot of it to have fun with the game.

Really depends on how competitive you get with friends as tweaking can save you valuable time especially when playing drag

All the doubters you check out the 2 videos that have been posted,

they both completely blow away every other racer

the graphics also look great

To be fair, Shane is a huge Sony Fanboy, if he had reviewed Motorstorm on 1Up it would have got high 9's if not a 10.

I agree it could cool but it probably not something i would get in to. However i think most people are overlooking the fact that achievements are coming. That is alot more important than houses and a furniture.

One issue i would like to get opinions on is...

do you guys get achievements to simply get better at the game, completely f...
