hmmm

month on month,
since the $100 pricedrop AND slim sku,
ps3 sales have fallen by 57%.
so much for the initial momentum....

This week's Japanese figures are just under 30k weekly, same as last week.
Thus, we might say that for the moment, ps3 sales have been dropping but have now plateaued, in Japan.

Anybody know at what level worldwide weekly plateaued ps3 sales are?

With this info we could do some cal...

Morganfell,

Funny how you called out 'serial' for 'personal attacks, yet you forgot to do the same for 'prabx' above?

Double standards much?

dchal.

oh gawd
The price list i have shown you is a NATIONWIDE retail chain from which computer shops source their supplies!
Ergo: It's where the professionals shop for PC parts

If you buy at a higher price, then you are getting ripped off and, strangely, you seem to be proud of it!

I don't ignore people, as a rule.
But for you, i am now making an exception.

You have set a new low, dude.
Educate yourself. ...

Settle down darkride66.

There were numerous areas where the ps3 version lagged significantly.
In fact, the reasons why the 360 won, again, were numerous and very clearly explained in the article.

Here, let me paste the summary:

Xbox 360 implements Screen Space Ambient Occlusion, sharper shadow maps, and a light bloom effect which outweigh the PlayStation 3’s occasional high...

What are you talking about dchalfont?

AUS = Australia

In Australia prices have been falling and the exchange rate has been appreciating.
Maybe you are talking about a different place?
Where is the AUS you are talking about?

wait...
so I have:

- established that you are indeed talking about Australia.
- shown that you are wrong about current PC prices in...

dchalfont,

what are you talking about?
i7 920 $348

In addition, a kik ass gaming system can be had for AMAZINGLY low prices:

cpu: i5 750 $242
Mobo: GB p55 ud3 $139
hdd: 1 TB $99
GPU: AMD 4890 $216

@ reviews (above)

Dude, did you not read my post?

I clearly stated:
"I personally do not care either way, for sales of UC2 nor for Forza3."

Yet, you go on to attack me for caring about sales?
wtf?
get a grip.

Makes it hard to take you seriously.

Yeah dude, that's a whole lot of sense right there.

@ gamingprat

Dude, it's UC2.
It's the BEST PS3 game EVER!

in its second week it falls to forza. in japan.

That's saying something.
Like it or not, shadow has a valid point, which you clearly do not like.

Ask yourself why that is.

@ above

Hmmm yeah. You are right. I put too much thought into it.

This will suffice, instead:
"Ps3. It only *doesn't* do everything"

If you are honest, that's the bottom line.

Lol
Damn, look at the timely damage control.

Guys, we already were aware of the fact that this is UC2's second week.

This makes it even more unbelievable.
I sincerely was expecting these kinds of numbers to reflect UC2's fourth week!

What you guys fail to acknowledge is that UC2 is the BEST game on PS3, yet in only its SECOND week it falls to 'FLOPZA3' in Japan, the home of ps3.

Guys like darkride66 keep on talking abou...

WOW! are these really the numbers for Japan?

[PS3] Uncharted 2 – 18,000
[360] Forza Motorsport 3 – 32,000

Really?
Japan?

This is a joke, right?

EXACTLY!

Don't get me wrong.
I am certainly not a big Sony fan at the best of times, but it stands to reason that the continued presence of the ps2 hardware on store shelves has let Sony off the hook with regard to ps2 backward compatibility on the ps3.

While the ps2 sells, Sony doesn't need to go to the trouble of giving the ps3 backwards compatibility.

As someone who doesnt want to buy a ps2, but certainly wants to play ps2 games like 'god...

Ok so, what you guys have shown me is that the ps3 can play SOME ps1 games.
However, i was correct in saying that the ps3 has extremely limited, or NO ps2 b/c.

This is because "The 40GB, 80GB re-release and the upcoming 160GB version of the PS3 are not backward compatible with some PS2 games because all hardware chips from the former console are omitted."

This quote was taken from 'drummer"'s link, with which he unfortunately owned himself. ...

@ Anorexist

well, dude... I never said that the 360 *does everything*
That lie, it seems, is reserved for the ps3.

Incidentally, here's the b/c list for the 360.

like backwards compatibility and linux.

oh wait.

5992d ago 2 agree39 disagreeView comment

Wow look at that.

I called darkride66 out for lying and he gets all hysterical!
What is his major malfunction?

More often than not, Darkride66 'bends' the truth to suit his purpose.
All I did was call him out, and I was right.
He cannot admit it, so has to start attacking me?
Kinda childish.

Sad too, considering he's nearly forty years old...

No, old man, it is you who is confused.
Ghostbusters looks better on the 360, as we all know.

In fact, out of the PC, 360 and PS3... Ghostbusters ps3 is the lowest common denominator, undeniably.

I just wonder how good the 360 version could have been had it not been for the fact the developer was forced to cater for this ps3 lowest common denominator.

5993d ago 0 agree3 disagreeView comment

Ghostbusters had already maxed out the ps3?

5993d ago 1 agree10 disagreeView comment

Oh dear.
There goes darkride66 again.

He didn't like the facts presented so he lies about the loading times?
Tut-tut.

So that all can see that he LIED again, here's his quote:
"So, both games are identical, but the PS3 wants you to do a harddrive install after which the load times are also identical."

However,
Here's what LOT *actually* found to be true about loading times:
