I would wait until the bundles come. Last year MS bundled up 2 games with the 360 Forza 2/Marvell Alliance.
Lol.. I love how positive you are! Yes the PS3 won the slow months of the year(april-july)by a small margin may I add but we all know that the Holiday season is when consoles are really sold! I keep telling the PS3 fans not too brag or claim that 2008 is Sonys year until the end of year!
And as far as the $199 price point we all know that the PS2 didn't sell 100 million consoles at its launch price of $299.. In fact I would probably say that the PS2 didn't sell 20 million conso...
I'm assuming when people say I have more friends on XBL that usually means their "REAL FRIENDS" not somebody they met online while playing a game. I have two co-workers that are Playstation fans and play warhawk all the time together. When my Xbox broke this past winter I was thinking of switching over to the PS3 just because of the free PSN and Blu Ray. Right now i'm borrowing my brother 360 while he is in Iraq and once I give it back to him i would probably buy another 360 because...
Since both Fable and Halo are published by MGS then i would consider it as borrowed.. Now if Sony was actually decent at making FPS games and made Halo then I would consider it as stolen.
So if this going to be a record breaking holiday for the 360 then the Wii must be demolishing records! I don't doubt the 360 will beat the PS3 but I still think the Wii is a hot item unless M$ releases its Wiimote equivelant. I mean c'mon M$ you copied the Miis already might as well just release those wii like controls and bundle them up with the arcade!
@battleaxe.. and how is that story going to effect 360 sales this holiday season when it just beat the PS3 this past NPD repo...
Wow I would like to be in your family richy rich! Now what part of Marthas Vineyard is your beach house again? I guess your family hasnt been affected by the high gas/food prices and the bad economy in general eh? Gotta love having that silver spoon in your mouth.
I dont doubt that it will.. its amazin MS has kept the price of he 360 this high after 3 years in the market. I mean looking at its main competition, the ps3, it dropped its price after only 6 months on the market..
The 360 is overpriced.. I mean if the PS3 was able to drop its price by $100 before it launched(japan), 4 months after it lauched(europe), 6 months after it lauched(N.America) then the 360 should already be $150.. I guess M$ isn't as desperate to move consoles though as Sony was when the PS3 was pretty much dead in the water last year!
Its only 256 MB memory card.. Check out best buy and circuit citys website for the product detalil..

If you dont want much changed why don't you just stick with the first Motorstorm? Sounds you like the fact it was lacking a lot of stuff like splitscreen which I can't believe a next gen racing game doesn't have... So much for the power of the PS3.. I mean Goldeneye on Nintendo 64 had 4 player splitscreen and my cell phone now is more powerful than that machine!
What if you want to just game and not play online or download demos?
You can't really blame the PS3 fans for gloating.. They need something positive after Sony got their @sses handed to them in a silver platter by M$ the last two years! Mark my words it will also happen this year!
The hopes and wishes of PS3 fans! Hoping that LBP will be a system seller when its not.. The wish that Sony can deliver its games on time!
LOL! Look at the PS3 fans in damage control... Its a dissapointment for MGS4 not to sell 1 million copies in Japan 4 months after it was released. PS3 fans made that game as the second coming of christ and as a system seller but didnt do that in Sony's home turf!! LOL!! Seriously Halo2 and 3 sold that in its first minute in MS home turf! Looks like Sony has just lost its home turf to Nintendo!
Funny you say that because the console that you root for(PS3) has a bunch of shooters as well.. MGS4, Warhawk, COD4, KZ2, Resistance 1 and 2.. And guess which console this generation has more RPG/JRPG?
And you guys keep talking about the realibility of the 360, which has gotten better and is covered by a 3 year warranty for RROD, but the original PS2 was probably as bad and Sony didn't do crap about the problem it had!
Nobody has been calling LBP as the next mario other than the PS3 fans.. Watching from the game play LBP does look a little like mario but its not going to reach Marios level at all!!
If your a hardcore gamer that likes to play online then yes the arcade sucks but if your about just playing games offline and are on a budget(which most parents will be when the holidays come because of the way the economy is)then go for the arcade version. Either way the Arcade version is still a ...
"microsoft is price cutting like penny pincher, $20 here, $30 there, $50 over there..
sony just dropped it's price once by $100 and has kept it steady since.. a price drop is on the way and it will be welcomed but i don't think they have to.. they should, but they dont have to... "
LOL.. You do know it was just two price cuts M$ did which came out to a total of $100 after almost 3 years in the market. Sony did do one big price drop but that was 6 month...
"Sony didnt drop their price of the ps3 @ the same time..."
Yeah they just dropped the price of the PS3. In japan they dropped even before it came out. In the U.S. 6 months after it came out. 3 months in Europe. $100 price drop after almost 3 years in the market is not as desperate as what Sony did.
I think they are probably gonna release in Asia first because of the low user base there that are using their PS3 online. With the lower user base the less strain on their PSN networks so they can work out the kinks before they release it in the bigger markets like NA..
Can you please eloborate on how the PS3 is better than the 360? To me they are even in features. One console does one thing better and vice versa..
