Camped out at futureshop with a friend around 6 months ago to get my wii... thats 6 hours I would like back...
Hype can do terrible things to you... loved my wii.. for around 2 weeks, until i got a 360 followed by a ps3. Wii lost all favors until SMG.. and now that I'm done, its back to the closet
6 hrs and 300$ isn't worth a dust collector
This is almost like a hyped up restaurant... people passing by see a ton of people lining up... so they line ...
Yeah, High def dvds costs a lot more than normal dvds...
But thats one reason I love the format wars ;) All those freaking Buy one get one free, bogo, sells! 15 bucks for a hd disc? COUNT ME IN..
Went from owning 1 bluray to 8... attach rates through the roof
I really wish this is untrue... I loved GW and Lineage series
EA is all about maximizing profits instead of making a quality game that's actually great. They've lost their touch in the gaming industry... but as long as people still buy their products (me being guilty of NHL08), their perspective on the industry won't change
Company A strategy: make a great game that people gets excited about and sells great
EA strategy: make a mediocre game that se...
My guess will be 2010
Mid 2008
360 drops arcade sku, and drops elite prices to 350, premium to 300
ps3 then drops 40gb to 350 also in competition
xmas 2008
ps3 introduces new sku to replace 80gb, perhaps 120gb costing 400 while drops 40gb to 320
360 premium/elite drops to 250/300 respectively
xmas 2009
ps3 40gb now 250 while 120gb 350
360 hits 200 with premium and 260 with elite
2010

WHY IS THERE 7 AGREES as of now to wildh4r's comments?
I love my ps3, and am closer to a ps3 fanboy then a 360 fanboy, mainly due to the fact that PS have the type of games I want to play
I absolutely loved uncharted and also just finished mass effect which is also an fabulous game. BUT PLEASE don't diss a game you know nothing about, the number of agrees is disgusting. The blatant untrue bashing of a good game is something your so called "xbots" will ...
If they make it as anywhere as good as uncharted, I'd buy it for sure... heck even half as good as uncharted will still be a good game hehe
And who cares if edios have some sly business tactics, as long as its a good game then its worth buying.
Sweet!!
Can't wait for this game... now that I've finished mass effect, which IMO is one of the best 360 games, to be honest I don't know any good new games coming to 360 besides maybe army of 2.
Will probably be enjoying ps3 early to mid 2008 with msg4, LBP, killzone and GT5P and will be enjoying 360 with fable 2 after that :D
Agree with crazy... they game is perfect in almost every way... an absolute blast to play
It really disgusts me when people who never played the game be4 bashes a game, be it ps3ers bashing halo and mass effect and xboxers on ratchet and uncharted. If you played it and there's a problem you have with it then its fair, but if your blindly bashing and calling people who played and loved the game a fanboy then theres something seriously wrong with you
Wow, I've just finished suikoden 2 for ps1 on my psp... totally agree with the article... one of the best storyline out there
Kotor 1 also have a fabulous story line... kotor 2 was ok, and mass effect so far so good
The game is great, but the UI is a complete piece of s%#*!
Coming from steam, I almost cried when I saw UT3's UI...
Steam offers, filter by ping, easy to join friend games, easy to find servers and maps
UT3 offers nothing, and finding a good server is a nightmare
No offense to console owners, as I am 1 myself, but they seriously gimped it to a console level... PC can handle better and deserves better! UI that is
One thing I hate about vista is how microsoft is trying to jam it down our throats... its not a bad operation system, though IMO they tried too hard for looks and made the whole thing less accessible
For example to play halo2 and shadowrun on a pc, you'd need vista even though there is absolutely no dx10 support in those game
Also dx10 is limited to vista when it is perfectly capable of running in xp... why microsoft... why?
arg my wallet is screaming in pain as well! just bought uncharted and mass effect... will be getting UT3 for pc and then for ps3 as well!
gaming heaven is my wallet's hell
One thing that I don't see often brought up, but is essential in the format war is computer adoption...
For the format to be successful, it will have be to become a standard for computer media storage like CD and DVDs. And the main point here is storage...
Triple and double layered discs should be not considered in this case, because of the price... looking at dual layers dvds even now, they're still horribly expensive compared to single layers... so that this f...
crazy deal indeed!!!
I don't have an hdtv so I'm basically one of those statistics the hddvd group love to herald with 0 attach rate... BUT futureshop in canada have crazy buy 1 get 1 free blu ray with over 50 selections, plus disney 2 for 1 blu ray for last week...
Even without an hdtv, my attachment is now 8 blurays!
I'm pretty neutral for the format war, but IT ROCKS SO FAR hehe
Hahaha! totally can imagine cartmen singing that

"Ogre 2: To be honest, Halo 3 isn’t a whole lot different from Halo 2. I was a little bit disappointed because of this. Going from Halo 1 to Halo 2 was a huge change, because the games are almost nothing alike when it comes to game play. Switching from Halo 2 to Halo 3, there are just new maps and a few new weapons is all that really feels different."
I'm not dissing halo3 as i have it and its a good game. But criticism of it is not unwarranted... the graphics are nic...
Cannot believe this RTS is coming to consoles. I love this game to death on the pc, but you CANNOT PLAY THIS ON A CONSOLE!
The current RTSes for consoles out there are typically simple and less frantic, the controls do not require 10 commands within 10 seconds. This is not supreme commander... anyone who played it on pc will testify the frantic controls, that even with a keyboard, you'll find yourself stumbling around with all the massive number of commands you need to give... ...
Arggg I live in canada and its amazon sucks like s**t
Wish we had the deal
Futureshop having a disney 2 for 1 sale again as well, pirates here I come
WWE smackdown most anticipated PS3 game?! didn't expect that...
What Samus is a girl?! a hot looking one too ;) way to spoil the ending for me
