And we will be watching N4G for all the complains, "It's taking 20 minutes to load GTA on my POS3, WTF?"
Huh? Not sure where you are from or what you are talking about, but games are released on Tuesdays.
Jack Meahoffer is completely right. When MS does it, they suck and are greedy, but if Phony does it, "it will make the POS3 sell better." Interesting how that works. And as for is MS putting my kids or myself through college, yeah, they do since I have my MCSE and soon to be, MCDBA.
Phony could give GTA 4 away and it still won't do better than on the 360 and that's a fact.
Do you know how many people I have heard complain about the BD tray on the POS3? There are defects with every electronic device. Who really cares if MS fixes the RROD issue or not. I have a warranty and if my 360 blows up, I go to Target and "buy" a new one until repair is done. I have only lost one console. It's no big deal. We just keep coming back and there's nothing you can do about it.
So is Phony, Apple, and just about every other business out there. Think before you post.
Another prime example of how the Phonyboys jump all over the most ridiculous "news" on the internet. It's a blog! It's one person's opinion. I fail to see how this is considered news, much less how or why this was posted?
You must be talking about Phony when say third place because according to official numbers I am reading, Phony is still a long ways behind. And after GTA 4 hits, they will be even further behind. Besides, a Wii-like remote can't be any worse than Home or gay Trophies.
"Hey Big Richard, let's go gay around Home 4 hours and then hold hands looking for Trophies the rest of night!"
"That's sounds like a swell idea, Little Richard! Then after that,...
How creative and original-"Tru-Blu" Hate to burst your bubble, but the POS3 is only selling well because of BD, not because of games and certainly not because you can mingle in Home or hunt for gay Trophies. Bring on MGS and Gran Turismo, big deal. So you will actually have one title that sells more than 2 million copies for a change. If Phony spent more time on games and less on movies, we could have a serious debate. Until then, go pop some popcorn and watch Alvin and the Chi...
Why do people make Pachter's comments the final world on everything in gaming. The guy has been wrong many times before.
What the hell is this tool talking about? Live hasn't had any problems since Christmas. He needs to get a new ISP.
Eagle21, the only reason why the POS3 had a surge at the beginning of the year is because of BD and movies. It's that simple. It's not because the POS3 offers anything groundbreaking and certainly not because it has quality games, because it doesn't. In essence, yeah, have fun watching movies while we are playing Mass Effect, Gears of War, Bioshock and Halo 3.
N4G is responsible for giving POS3 owners a platform to be dumb. Face it, GTA 4 on the 360 will clobber POS3 sales and there's nothing you can do about. 6 million on the 360, less than 3 million on the POS3, per usual the 360 wins again.
I really want to be a smart ass, but I will put down the armor and axe for a minute and say that I truly believe that MS, Sony and Nintendo and their consoles will all be around for many, many years. MS being the newcomer, is going nowhere because they have the money to do what they want to do for as long as they want to do it. Sony and Nintendo and the pioneers of the console. I see the opposite of the article happening- PC users will migrate to the console and in droves. I used to be a ...
Which leaves "some" other areas that I am sure the 360 comes out on top. Obviously you don't read reviews much. There's no question in mind that GTA on both consoles will look and perform better in certain areas, that's expected, but as a whole, we all know that the 360 version will be better all the way up from pricing to peformance and experience and in sales.
This guy is writing his own confirmations now, what a tool. Nowhere and no one from Take Two has said that the POS3 version will even run, for that matter. And if you weren't an idiot, you would know that even Rockstar has claimed that if you want the best overall experience, get the 360 version. On top of that, the 360 is lead platform for GTA 4. Not to mention, based on the history of these consoles, the 360 version will outsell the POS3 version, easily and like all other titles. Then o...
OMG, stop this bs man. This OP is obviously very scared that GTA 4 on the 360 will completely crush the POS3. It's ok man, it's only a freaking video game. Do us all a favor and get a life. Who really cares about Australia?!?!?
Wario, what games? Grand Turismo? GT will sell 1.5 million if that. Resistance 2 will sell less than 2 million. Killzone 2 will sell less than 2 million. MGS is about all you got and that's not saying much unless you like playing a character who is 80 years old in tights. Even with these so-called "games" coming out this year the POS3 just won't see the success like the 360 in terms of software sales, ever. Our titles this year look amazing, exclusive and cross-platform. Gea...
Europe does care about the 360. With a 40% sales increase I would say that you need to be more informed before start talking out of your ass, Bioshock. The hardcore gamers made their choice and the fact it is, 6-7 million will sell on the 360, leaving a paltry 2-3 million on the POS3. Mark my words, GTA 4 WILL rock on the 360 and will bring the casual gamers to it. Why would the trend change just because of GTA 4? Look at software sales on the 360 and it's killing the POS3.
This is easily, hands down, the dumbest and most ridulous post I have ever seen in my life. SlappingOysters needs to hung by his nipples from his gay little POS3 and flogged. Seriously man, everyone in here and across the Internets knows that GTA 4 on the 360 will kill the competition, period. Stop being an attention whore and accept these facts.
That is exactly the point. Most of the masses of serious gamers have already made their choice and aren't sitting around with their thumbs up their asses, waiting for GTA 4. I honestly do not believe that GTA will push consoles on either side regardless of what MS or Phony are offering. I do however ojectively believe that GTA 4 on the 360 will offer the best experience for the serious gamers and will outsell the POS3 two to one, easily.
