I had a feeling that MS is reserving the top notch AAA game for E3. That's why they planned to release GTA DLC, and other multiplatform games for the month of February. But that won't persuade new potential consumers or PS3 owners to jump to XBOX360 as they don't have a AAA game to match KZ2.
The latest game that MS can announce will be on E3... maybe 1 or 2 unannounced games. But i'm not making my hopes up because MS only have a few first party developers left in their arsenal...
@veneno
are you sure? my mom is over 60yrs old. hahaha.
how about me, i'll have 7 nights with your sisters or gf instead.
Another sample:
Starting Feb 27 thru Mar 31 saved your proof of purchase or raffle coupon that can be found inside your Kill Zone 2 game. Send it before April 3.
Raffle draw starts April 6. Every day until April 30, SONY will PICK 10 LUCKY WINNERS for a Collectible Helghast Helmet worth $100. Grand prize winner will win 2 plane tickets to visit Guerilla Games HQ, FREE Hotel for 7 days and a pocket money of $1,000.
Now SONY need to put that advertis...
If SONY can spend 10 million thru advertisement, but in return they sold additional 500K to 1million MORE copies of the game then thats worth it. 1million x $60 = 60million.
Sony should talk to:
Mcfarlane
Hasbro
McDonalds
ESPN
Coke or Pepsi
Major League Gaming (MLG) weekly tournaments
My prediction: Around 3 - 4 million copies sold. Thru advertisement additional 1 - 3 million copies more.
Here are the preliminary console software sales in Japan for the week of December 22 - 28.
1. White Knight Chronicles (PS3, Sony) - 212,000
2. Kirby Superstar Ultra (NDS, Nintendo) - 195,000
3. Animal Forest: Dobutsu no mori (Wii, Nintendo) - 189,000
4. Dissidia: Final Fantasy (PSP, Square Enix) - 138,000
5. Wagamama Fashion: Gal's Mode (NDS, Nintendo) - 133,000
6. Mario Kart Wii (Wii, Nintendo) - 102,000
7. Phantasy Star Zero (ND...
Starcraft 2 and KillZone 2
$20 thats expensive. yes i know you will get a ton of stuff & missions. i'm not saying all, but majority of americans are cheap...so i think $20 is pricey.
make it around $10 - 15 to make it attractive to the consumers.
why so much hate against the PS3 when it comes to the media? journalist make money to create stories that its not true, for what? to help Microsoft and XBOX 360? to promote american products? or you just want SONY to fail? It ain't happening!
based on videogame history:
Virtual Boy - Sold 770K (Release July 1995)
Nintendo 64 - Sold 32.94M (Jun 1996 - Mar 2005)
Nintendo Game Cube - Sold 21.74M (Release Sept 2001)
XBOX - Sold 24M (Nov 2001 - Ma...
I'm in the BETA yesterday. Just keep pressing the X button and it will eventually connect you in. Please have patient! Sometimes it takes 4 - 8 times to connect.
FYI: There is a problem everytime you visit your apartment. So don't go there or else it will be hard for you to reconnect again.
THIS ARTICLE IS STUPID! Why compare it to NXE? A lot of PS3 owners are still eager for HOME to be launch and i'm one of them. I might not think HOME all the time due to i'm busy playing my PS3 games. But in the back of my mind SONY is doing their best to make HOME the best 3D world expierence for all PS3 owners out there. Where can you find a video game company like SONY that offers this stuff? 3D World experience, free condo, place to hang-out, meet people, watch movies, have your own blog, ...
I was among the lucky person who got invited into HOME BETA. The only thing that makes it boring right now is not a lot of advertisement and shops to go to because its still in BETA MODE. But i tell you guys this will be huge especially if you have a lot of friends in your list just like me (100 in my 2 accounts). It's really fun to hang out and discuss games with people you know. Playing bowling is hella fun...i won twice already.
Now my suggestion for SONY is to add places th...
PS3 has graphic advantage in some areas of the video. While XBOX 360 is a little brighter. Either way both copies are winners!
@CandidAnthony
Thanks for sharing this info.
@TO ALL
Just put in the survey "Not willing to pay" hahaha. If they asked specific question like either monthly or yearly charged ... choose yearly. End of Story :D
My primary reason of buying a console:
1. I want to make sure that the games i like will come out in this system. Some games has no guarantee, but i'll just based on history released that if the games comes out in that system ... big possibility that the game will come out for the next gen.
2. Reliability. I don't want NEXT GEN system that needs to be fix less than a year. No games can be played if your system is unreliable especially if the warranty expired alre...
I don't agree with people saying that the reason why they purchase a system is the games. Set aside your gaming mentality, and insert the character of being a WISE consumer.
As a consumer of any product. Here are the list of things i look for.
1. Love at first sight. Do i really want this product? because i might change my mind after a day or two after purchasing it.
2. Price. Can i afford it? Do i save more in the long run with all the gadgets and...
This is a good news for customers who haven't bought a XBOX 360 like me.
But not good news for business owner like Microsoft especially if you're one of the stock owners. They are losing millions because of the RROD, Paying Exclusive games, 3yrs warranty, bribing & giving out freebie to reviewers & media, free games to all customers who got affected by RROD, and now PRICE CUT again. tsk tsk tsk.
You don't care? Then why promote gamers to pay $50 then if you really care? I care because i want them to experience online game w/o limitations.
Are you trying to discriminate kids or people who doesn't have a job? Why? you're a kid once so stop discriminating people! And if you really hate listening to them then turn off you head set or play with your fellow claN members only...easy solution right? 5 yrs from now, this kids that you are talking about will be the potential buy...
To all the people who tried to justify the $50/yr or 4.16/month need to see beyond this price. I know i can afford it...but not everybody can pay (kids, students, no job) or needs to pay if the customer/gamer can play online for free when they purchase a PS3/PC.
When XBOX 360 came out, you all xbox fanboys said...XBOX 360 is cheap, blah blah blah, PS3 is expensive. If its cheap then you guys should have purchase the PS3 in the first place because you knew that you can save more...
Ofcourse we (PS3 owners) don't want to speculate, but that is why they created a forum to discuss & unite the gamer community and hopefully the Square Enix will hear the cries of all FFVII fans.
Discussion is different from Debate/Gossip. Mind you :D
I just want to ask you if this is true. Yesterday my brother made a reservation game at GAMESTOP for KillZone2. And the guy asked my brother which system does he want to make a reservation? My brother got suprised because he knows that this is a exclusive PS3 game. So he asked him how come? And he replied that it shows 2 choices in his system. So he ask him again, when did KZ2 become multiplat? He replied, they announce it a few days ago.
