"I dont think the PS3 will get a price-cut during the holidays.
The PS3 has a great line-up of games, it can survive the holidays without a price-cut. Remember, Sony is seeing this race as a marathon."
Thats all well and good but the race might be over by the time they finish.
Im guessing ur talking about the "10 year" plan sony have. A console usually has a 5 year peak then fades out, so to me ten years seems a bit long. I...
Well apparantly to most ppl on here all it takes is to own a ps3 or 360.
Coz only the "hardcore" play those systems. *cough*
O and only adults play them because they are "mature" games...too mature for kids at least. Apparantly *cough*
"how much is $1 USD = $1 AUD?
if $1 USD > $1 AUD then Damn... PS3s are expensive there..
are am I mistaken."
No we get ripped hardcore. Plus we never had ps2 BC...so even tho u just lost it. We never had it.
In New Zealand (near Aus) its like $200 more than us...so spare a thought for them poor people too lol
It wa awesome when our dollar was 90c to the Us coz u could buy DS games (Ds's are region free) ...
"My confusion actually stemmed from the fact that the pricing was similar to that of yesteryear for both the ps3 and 360. But someone let me know this relates to Australia (which is weird because I thought it was dropped for that region already) Thus, my confusion."
The price of the core 360 was AU$380 (same as wii) for at least this whole year. So now its $300. So it dropped AU$80.
I guess thats news>? lol...not to me i already have one with a har...
"Normally I wouldn't approve or report this because I just think it's another article attacking other consoles, but I like this site and I would love to see the reaction of all the moronic biased PS3 fanboy's who call Wii owners kiddies but have a little stuffed animal for their avatar.
Can't wait for the disagrees and minus bubbles from the Rising Biased."
Yep u got 20 disagrees lol...its funny they keep remindig us how our games are kiddie/simple/cas...
"lbp is a new ip its revolutionary its without guns,its cute so obviously living in a hardcore generation people are weary but sales will increase on a weekly basis purely by word of mouth"
Its kinda ironic really because these same attributes....:-
"..its revolutionary its without guns,its cute .."
....are generally the things fanboys bag wii games out for. U know not having "guns" (coz a good game always has guns), ...
"The problem is, like iPod, after awhile, those that never really cared that much about music, will just let it go under the bed somewhere, stop buying mp3 (or just pirate it) or comeback to CDs that you can take and play while having a secure, hard copy (not to mention what people use to forget that most people still don't have internet access)."
Those who dont care about music>? Are u serious. Is that like 5% of the population. U didnt write that with a straig...
"dang... this article is written by the 'nintendo bragging force'
bah so they won this generation... by sales, only!"
Yeh coz sales dont mean anything. I bet u were keeping a good eye on it when they both first launched tho. I also bet u were watching when LBP was released.
But hey who cares, i was playing my gamecube more than my ps2 and no1 bought that. So as long as ur happy with what u got...who does care about sales>?
"This article failed on so many levels..
The one and only reason why The Wii has dominated comes down to price , it the PS3 had launched at $250 it would have been game over for the Wii."
Yeh and if the ps3 launched at $250 sony wouldve lost $600 a unit>?
"I really don't care how much a console has sold. I don't get anything out of it. I care about games such as Resistance 2, Fallout 3, Gears 2, Fable 2, NBA 2K9, and the PS3 and 360 are the consoles to have to play those. Not some Wii Music garbage."
Yeh coz wii music is the only game for the wii :-S....so that means singstar is the only game for the ps3>>>>?
"How is the Wii a board game when you can play video games on it?"
He was just comparing the two (comparing them to be similar in family entertainment). U know, coz board games hardly get played and spend most of their time on the shelf (or in the cupboard).
Like u said its just one guy and nobody really cares anyway. Sony/MS fanboys will of corse Laugh out Loud .....and then roll around the floor (they already have on this page alone). But really th...
Yeh thats the funny thing. Comparing the wii to a board game yet they release games on it. They even re-released games onto it (house of the dead).
Altho i do think its just this one guy...i mean it only takes 1 person to ruin it for every1 ey.
"Unless Parker Brothers starts making their board games out of gold I will agree with Sega."
Yeh maybe they should get them to make a sonic board game too. I mean they obviously cant make a good one on a console anymore.
"A half retarded fish frog could play Wii Sports"
I dunno in the training modes u have to have pin point accuracy to achieve some of the gold medals. I personaly love the second tennis game where u have to aim at the back line glass thing (which is blue) that shrinks everytime u hit it. Plus it moves from side to side.
Everyone i know (including myself) took quite some time to hit more than 3. Now of corse i can hit over 40. Hit the ball too early a...
who cares there all great. IEspecially if u have all the systems
>!!
Dont worry guys, dont take this list too personal as its just some1s opinion. Its not an offical list or anything.
"Apart from Nintendo, I would agree with that and I don't pick Nintendo because:
a. Wii Fit?
b. Twilight Princess is a GameCube game."
Ok TP is a gamecube game.....but what about the games made for the wii>>
And have u tried wii fit, ..or are u stating ur assumptions as fact (meaning u havent actually played it but u ASSUME its crap...even tho u havent tried it).
i know ive shown these pics a million times before, but here they are again>

"Microsoft and Sony have completely stopped trying to get up to the Wii's status in sales and are fighting each other for 2nd in the console war.
This console war is a lot more interesting then the last by far... "
Yeh i had all 3 last gen and i gota say it really is different this time round. Its funny nobody really cared last time because no1 was interested in the cube (even tho it had great games and was completely underated), and ppl were still a b...
