@ above.
360man doenst need to supply any evidence here. It is **very common** knowledge that the attach rate for Xbox 360 is higher. The install base is almost double (xbox 360 doubles PS3). Further, EA's sports games sell heavily in America/EU vs. The East; EA's profits are centered on these markets, and the Xbox 360 leads those markets even more.
This is all very commmonly accepted knowledge. Without a doubt.
For instance:

@Diugu
What are you talking about "if this was on Xbox 360..."?
Resistence is a "also ran" title. It sold moderate-to-good at best. Won very few awards.
ON THE OTHER HAND; Gears of War won piles of awards and has outsold R by **MILLIONS**.
The WHOLE industry knows that R isnt in the same league as Gears of War.
Gears of War 2 is going to be a MASSIVE hit and dominate the X-mass 2008 game industr...
"each new version of Windows comes out antiquated or broken before it ever goes on sale"
What total horse-shiat. This guy has bought the Apple (and linux) fanboy anti-Vista fiction.
While i agree with some material in this article, his understanding of Vista is clearly fiction.
The largest problem with Vista is the irrational hate by radical zealots on the internet.
The OS has been a rock solid success since day one, but it (and MS) has had to fight all the slack-jawed loudmouths who do nothing but talk irrationally out of their arses about things they dont understand.
Here's a good Wikipedia article about Vista:

MGS4 has been marked down from full price here in my home-town too.
Its not isolated. They printed too many copies probably, and/or they simply arent selling.
They have to push-through all their unsold stock.
not a suprise. the ps3 games are not sellign strong. not new news.
Most. Over-rated. Game. Ever.
It had way too much hype and expectation, and the PS3 owner's lack of game-interest (as many Ps3s are BluRay players and not game machines...) has led another title to the bargain bin.
This is one of the reasons Square Enix has decided that it needs to bring Final Fantasy XIII to Xbox 360; to actually *sell* the game.
Only 1st party titles can support the budget of a modern game on the PS3. And, even then, those games...
Far and away; The. Most. Over-rated. Game. Ever.
Oh you fools.
The PS3 is about spreading BluRay as a MOVIE platform 1st and foremost, it is meant to shore up Sony's MPAA interests.
Sony has *already* spent MANY MANY hundreds of millions on pay-offs to its MPAA partners to drop HD-DVD and adopt BluRay.
Sony doesnt care about games, it cares about MOVIES.
Its *really* funny that the anit-MS zealots are so eager to try and paint the relationship between MS & Bungie as strained or "in trouble".
They are rational adults, they dont always agree -- Bungie & MS work well together (they rely on one another for their greatest success) -- you people are just hillarious.
Sony shows CGI shots and trailers because it preys on the uninformed.
Their PS2 install base was so big, they got used to dealing with gamers as a "mass market". Its not going to cut it this time.
Promises and bullvideo(shots) arent going to stand up to the disappointment PS3 owners get time and again when they realize that the PS3 isnt the powerhouse sony promised them.
The Xbox 360 has shown time and again that it is more than machine ...
If you think MAG was interesting, you simply havent been paying attention to Huxley development.
Here ya go:

Right, its a conspiracy. Gotcha.
Hardly. MS has the blockbusters lined up. The Primetime Games (like the 1vs100 (a interactive, schedule based videogames with MASSIVE numbers of players? that is simply ground breaking -- wait and see what they do with it... how about interactive television with users choosing the outcome? how about massive trivia contests with international-scale competition (think jeopardy on consoles with big prizes..) and on and on, the Primetime games were the most "overlooked suprise here"...
@1.1
Haha! Look everyone, a sony defence force fanboi who hasnt played the Demo and is now talking out his anus!
Look everyone, its the desperate nonsense from the scared!
I'm expecting the full-play through reviews to be about 8.7-9.2
The game is just massive, has many new features/elements that un-settle traditional action/adventure and RPG genre-games.
After playing the demo, and knowing how much **MORE** the game is going to be, I'm pretty confident this game is going to be very well reviewed.
Now, sales may be a different matter. Its a new IP and it is an obscure genre (RPG/Adventure). I expect it to sell mode...
Like hell. The inital previews have been exceptional. People that have **played** the game in a Preview have been saying very positive things.
you're inventing an alternate, Sony-Defence-Force endorsed fiction.
All over the net (hell, goto the NeoGaf forum especially) are saying the Demo is just terrific.
Too Human is going to be **another** bust-out hit. Sorry for your petty fanboi fantasy.
The idiots who are trying to spread FUD about Too Human are simply afraid the Xbox 360 has **another** exceptional exclusive game.
Too Human breaks so many molds, and does it so excellently, and it is *CLEAR* to anyone who was paying attention to the run-up and previews.
It is **CRYSTAL** clear to anyone who has played the Demo that this is a sure-fire-hit. Anyone who likes Diablo, God of War or fantasy-RPGs are going to love this title.
The Demo ...
Clearly, with everyone saying that the Demo is a massive victory and absolutely terrific, he's happy.
The Too Human demo says to the SDF-nay-sayers: STFU.
Too Human has so many great genre-busting features, plays great, looks great, has a great backstory and exceptional gameplay/controls -- everyone is RAVING about it.
Too Human is going to be a serious contender for Action-Adventure-RPG of the year. Just fantastic.
Pre-order for me...
@Thisiswaiting
"You heard it here first"
Yeah, because that has *0%*-chance of happening. The reason you said it first is because it is just RIDICULOUS to say.
Congradulations, you've made the regular Sony Defence Force idiots look rational, you've gone **WAY** off into crazy-land.
Good work.
Based on the Demo, I can say without a doubt:
Too Human is genre-breaking and just terrific fun.
Action-Adventure game of 2008. Mark my words.
