funny thing is, you complain about vgchartz inaccuracy, yet seem to think its ok for the examiner to downplay the gap by 600000 units.
The gap is 3.6 million, not 3 million.
But hey, I guess fudging the figures is ok for a pro ps3 headline?
These figures do not include the effect of the slim 360, either.
Upcoming financial reports will be interesting, as the effect of the new 360 price and slim sku will be evident.
Add to that kinect a...
Gotta agree there,Hsx9
GTA was never a chick's game.
To see these two girls get into the game in the way they did, is a bit scary. Pycho chicks.
I know what the ad is trying to do, it is trying to bring the casual girl gamer into the hardcore scene.
Unfortunately this ad fails.
Hard.
It just looks weird.
It would have been better to show a hardcore gamer geek playing GTA, and let the gi...
don't see 'em either.
yeah, no shadow? What gives?

On second thoughts... WHOA! that looks crisp, clean and delish.
No vaseline effect, no blur, no texture problems.
Thanks 360, Bungie.
Can't wait.
... just seems weird that the FX rate is used to excuse the ps3 losses which currently run somewhere near $5 billion.
Yet, the same exchange rate seems to have worked exceptionally well for the Wii's profits, before, during and after the Global financial crisis.
Strange.
Wait.
This is N4g.
Not strange.
This article is fake and the guy is a liar.
We all know that the ps3 NEVER breaks or gets the ylod, nor does Sony ever stuff anything up at all.
Sony is awesome, infallible and beyond reproach.
Sometimes, when I think of SOny before going to sleep, I get a tear of joy rolling down my cheek.
How dare this guy say nasty stuff about Sony!
How come we all can't just be 'real gamers' and love Sony?
/s
yeah hmmm vhero, are you thinking straight?
When we stop to consider the cost of ps3 to SOny thus far, at $5 billion lost, we need to acknowledge that it is in fact SOny that did "buy itself into the gaming world"
In fact, the loss of $5 billion means that Sony bought its way into consumer's homes via the ps3 at a cost of $140 per console.
Think about that.
Sony has made zero money on the ps3.
Instead th...
as far as i can tell, gt5 has not been released.
It seems ironic how the title of this article is written in the present tense. Until GT5 actually releases and is in the hands of gamers, it does nothing... nothing at all.
Ps3 gamers seem to live in the non-existant past a lot, when they recall the ps2 glory days. In similar fashion, they fantasize of the non-existant future equally as well when they talk of how an unreleased game 'destroys' a game tha...
No question.
Absolutely true article.
No question.
To all those who are complaining about this being flamebait, stop and think for a sec.
... if it is flamebait, and you know it, why are you flying right into the flames?
The best way to combat flamebait is to stay away - don't click on the story. Let's face it, you knew it was flamebait by simply reading the title, before even reading the story (that's if ...
Simply put, an amazing achievement for MS and the gaming division!
While Sony has posted PS3 losses of $5 billion, MS has been posting an overall explosion of EADD profits.
Even with increased development and marketing costs for its gaming platforms in the last two quarters, the gaming division has posted a stupendous SIX-FOLD yoy increase in profits for the EADD, at $672 million in profits.
So many detractors and naysayers were projecting the decline...
of course you are right, ac.
It is only a matter of time until someone smashes their TV, their friends, or themselves with a move-mote, just like this:

.. the wii had a strap too..
Since when do Sony products fail?
wait..uh.
exploding batteries?
... a pro?
You mean an actor?
KB is fine as a novelty act.
That's all he is.
A Puppet, a scripted dialogue, a pretender - an actor.
If you disagree, then tell me, what position does he hold at Sony?
'Amazing pretend actor spokesman'?
IS this what's happened to the mighty Sony?
Paying an actor to be spokesperson?
and i don't care for it. Now what?
If you don't like kinect, don't buy it.
If you haven't got 6 feet in front of your tv, don't buy it.
Kinect will still sell millions.
Wait and see.
I remember all the hating of the wii and its silly wiimote and gamecube graphics... yet look what happened.
You guys have so much invested in hate, it's laughable.
Why not find something you are truly passionate about and let other people enjoy without c...
It has beem proven that Sony publicly advertised and promoted this feature as a selling point.
In court it will b e proven that Sony gained a competitive advantage by promising to provide and sustain features, which were later removed.
The ps3 console was rendered partly unusable, as the firmware update was required to use the console in its advertised and intended role.
Consumers and lawyers have already acknowledged this crucial legal disti...
amazon seems to rate the kinect very highly while hardly registering the move on its charts.
Of course, to the hardcore ps3 religion, this is merely a blasphemous lie which we must do our best to ignore.
... continuing the trend of falling ps3 momentum.
Where is the headline for that?
Wait.
PS3 fans don't like the truth.
Makes sense now.
They sure seem to think the 360s and price drops on old stock will have a positive impact. As it stands, they are estimating 360 sales doubling ps3 sales in the crucial European markets.
Based on comments from PS3 fans, I had asumed that the ps3 was winning an easy victory in Europe.
Unsurprisingly, the reverse seems evident.
Hmm. This is bound to ruffle a few feathers.
VGchartz hate and denigration inbound in 3..2..1..
