You really think that number will shoot-up when 360 releases its updated interface? Uhh, try no. I'll be surprised if that number increases to 0.7% due to the 360. Anyway this statistic goes to show you people aren't ready for DD as of now. And I agree, in the future it will be regarded as an alternative, I really do believe physical media will be in for A LONG time. DD may gain popularity but thinking economically, uses only DD as the ONLY way of distribution doesn't make sense right now. Ma...
That would actually be interesting though. However if there was 4 next gen consoles on the market...Hmm...Then the industry will be a headache and saturated. This back and forth between sony and microsoft is enough.
~I am a gamer...(I don't know)
I actually hope this is true. There are way too many good games coming out now and this holiday is already starting to feel saturated. And I really want this game but damn it, I'm not rich!
~I am a gamer...who hopes they move it~
You are so ignorant it's not even funny. One black person alters your perception of people? That shows small-minded thinking on so many levels. The only thing worse than being ignorant is being openly ignorant.

Okay guys I do not really listen to his music, nor do I really like it but what does his music career have to do with him talking about the game? He wasn't even reviewing it...he just posted a video up on youtube about it and was playing it and talking about the rewind scheme. Geez 1up should calm down(as well as a lot of people on this site) because he wasn't even reviewing it. And by the way Souljah Boy saying "This s***'s stupid as hell, man." is him saying that this is fun. Ever...
What I'm thinking. I really, REALLY like the PS3, but I am not a potential buyer right now. I already have it. I hope Sony competitively price though. Competition is always good for consumer.

i think that chance depends on how well Sony advert LBP. I'm telling you if they don't come at casual people correctly with their advertising, its not going to sell as well as it should. One thing I have to say is that in the U.S Microsoft knows how to advert their best selling games.
lol thats actually a funny reply
bubble sir
i actually feel kind of bad for the guy though...taking games a little to serious. It almost looks likes he's getting paid to advertise the PS3. I like the PS3 too but I know damn well they don't pay me.

Being a college student I would have to say that if it wasnt for the price tag for xbox live, I'd be all over it. Xbox live is definitely the better of the two for online for sure (as of now). Not saying I can't afford the $50 a year thing, but personally, I think charging to play online multiplayer is bu!@%^&t.Especially when the comp, has it for free. That money could actually go to buying a really good game I may want at another point of the year. But I guess if people keep paying ther...
Some people can agree to disagree simple as that. I don't know the sales forecast worldwide but since I live in ny, I can just give an opinion on u.s sales. I believe that the PS3 is worth the money, and is a very good long term investment. But come on, which one is easier to sell... A $200 dollar console with widest library of HD gaming or a $400 dollar console with long term potential. This article is insightful in a way, I do think 20+ audience would go for PS3 and parents/relatives or gua...
Even though I hear these retailers are for the most part not supposed to be biased (some are I guess), I can understand the logic. Because the 360 so far has the widest library of game (whether they are quality is up to the person however. but the ps3 has seen its share of flops), and based on statistics they do have higher attach rates, they would want to push these out. The more 360 systems they sell, the more potential buyers would come for more games. Plus with the price cut, more holiday...
Umm why are you comparing a platformer with an RPG? Different genres, different potential buyers, and it ultimately boils down to different tastes. You realize TRUE gamers understand different flavors of games. I understand you would rather buy LBP in a bargain bin, but please don't diss it in the process. It looks like a good "tried and true" platformer.

EVERYTHING is a stretch for sure but I'm not sure if it's going to be tired after 2 weeks. That kind of harsh. Especially with the innovation in there. A game like LBP is a good investment as well as Fable2 because they have longevity to me. I for one know I will be playing LBP with my younger sister when she gets a break from school
~I am a gamer...who loves his sister~
I think Fable 2 is going to be a great game. I really enjoyed Fable on the Xbox even through its issues. Even though my brother will get it he is probably going to hold the 360 with him at school. This is a game I would have wanted on the PS3 actually. I mean Fable is no KOTOR but its a helluva good game. Peter Molyneux seems like a really humble developer (reminds me of Hideo). Cheers

So are they going to replace the XMB, and when you turn on your PS3 you go straight into your apartment? Like for people who just want to stick to the XMB they can pull out the in-game PSP. And for people who want to connect with others just simply go online? Is that how the integration of HOME works?
~I am a gamer...who wants a PSP~
Seriously, sometimes I do think SOME gamers have problems. When did gaming become gang related?
Will it be like Guild Wars where you pay for the game and theres no monthly subscription...or does SOE have a track record of subscription based games?
I have no idea why your comparing Resistance 1 and Gears 2. And even if you were comparing Gears 2 to Resistance THEN based it off of past sales of prequels than you just broke your argument. Why does everything need to be like a console war?
"Gears 2 is Gears 1.5; They lied and said it was 2..."
"Resistance looks like an old and tired Halo..."
Can't PS3 owners enjoy their respectable shooter as well as 360 owners enjoy theirs?
~I am a...
Lol. Yea to me this is a big deal too. I love the first Metroid Prime game and the series.
Very good and constructive comment.
