"A little look in the pass"
Micro gets away with charging for every little thing because they already have millions of customers invested who don't want to invest in something else even if it's a better deal, not to mention peer pressure, i.e. friends all on one platform.
Group mentality.
If Micro were in third place, they would either drop the 360 or have all those same features for free, but alas, they launched well before the competition.
"which although at least"
Jesus Christ...
Snake would win easily in hand to hand, but Drake does have the immense luck factor... as everything he touches DOES turn to $hit, i.e. bridges, old decrepit walkways, et cetera, he somehow always manages to grab onto some tiny handhold or something and escape without much injury.
Experience, training and genetic pruning

Lucky ass mofo
Easy, UC3 in an urban setting... NYC or Tokyo!
I can just imagine an airplane version of the train sequence, one of those big ass 747s or 777s... that would be epic.

Drake is invited on board a private 777 for a business proposition, so there aren't any civilians on board, just the head honcho or associate surrounded by guards, of course everything goes awry and the pilots are killed or jump out as a gunfight ensues (ala Indiana Jones: ToD) Drake has to finis...
Ha, eat that quitters. Have some courtesy for the other damn players!

Though it is really ND's fault for not making some option for people who legitimately need to leave a game or something.
But there's no excuse for those idiots who get killed and quit only when they have to wait when you yourself perhaps died at some point and happily waited until the others finished.
Worst part is, players I meet in UC2 don't show up in my "Players Met" list, ...
So it's true, they DO use wizards to make the magical physics in their games..

You're not considering that we're seeing the last wave of the mutliplats that began development many years ago, before devs had their head around the hardware.
Games going into development now or in the last year are the one's that should REALLY be equal unless either party requests special attention.
And the tide really has been shifting, Batman for example.
And the issues with the PS3 version of Borderlands were not graphical at all.
Seriously, and they BETTER get some dedicated servers for this sucker; they sell more than any other fps and they can't afford to make that experience for all those people as seamless and lag free as possible?
With all of the other games coming out, MW2 is looking a lot less appealing for 60 bucks..
I wish they would do another sort of cartoonyish game, but darker like like Abe's Odyssey...
It's not overpriced, it's just REALLLLLLLY well tested apparently..
If I made a console, I would ship it with two controllers, but no power cords or other connectors of any sort, or buttons on the controllers and charge customers extra for ALL that stuff..
I'm going to call it the Chump-Container 200.
Yes! I'm making SO much money on PS3 sales!!!
HAHHAHAHAHAHH!!!

Wait... no I'm not. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOO!
I always wanted a mammoth..

I wouldn't want it either if they didn't use it for games...
I would say mid to late 2011 at the earliest for Sony to lead.
Don't forget the early part of 2010 is FILLED with big exclusives on both sides and lest we forget the next big Halo game which is certain to move a lot of units (can't say if it's scheduled for 2010 though, is it?)
I just don't think the 360 has the staying power, tech-wise, to last as long or outlast the PS3 and THAT is why the PS3 will lead in the end.
I think for the 360 to remain ahead there will need to be price cuts across ALL hardware peripherals and accessories as well as services, e.g Live subscriptions and Netflix. Not all at once, but for the remainder of this generation for Micro to maintain a dominant position regarding market share (call the Wii a competitor all you want, but ...
Nice
