don't you know its against the rules of N4G to believe that sony is a company and can talk just as much crap as teh evil Microsoft and Nintendo! Prepare to b hit by a mountain of disagrees.
All companies talk crap face it.
Love the product not the company. They love your money not you.
Your saying MS directs it at Sony - fair point they do but in the quotes I gave you weren't sony directing abuse at nintendo!? Are you blind? That is worse than MS pr because there the Sony person is predicting the demise of a competitior whereas MS are like the little kid trying to prove themselves against the established leader by comparing sales. If MS wins a month it is a victory to them so they shout about it. I agree that MS fixates itself too much on sony but its not like sony have nev...
just because you didn't like my answers you've called me a liar and a fanboy. I've clarified my position to you and your last point has no relevance at all. I could find quotes from all of the big 3 talking crap (although that Greenburg guy at MS is by far the most annoying.)
Sony has never said crap? How about 'the generation doesn't start until we say so'.
(comparing how the psp will fare against the ds as both were about to be released) - 'the comparision is n...
Oh the irony!
And if you actually read what I said then yes that is exactly it and thats where most of your misinterpretation comes from. If what your saying is true and the numbers given are biased against sony how come sony have never called MS out and said so?
Answer: because they report in the same way - not just the big 3 but EVERY company in the world! Have you ever done economics or business studies?
To clarify oner: when a PR person says s...
sony's sold and your sold are different things.
Sold to you is to consumers but to businesses sold is to retailers as its retailers who pay them the money. There you go easy. No need to come on so strong and I am not lying I am telling it fairly for all companies.
EDIT: Biased? You really should research before coming up with these accusations. I'm not biased against anybody. If I had to chose my favourite of the big 3 it would be nintendo as they do the least m...
he has a point.
And it isn't futbol its football.
I like madden too this year. Its the best american soccer game yet.
Sony SHIPPED and
Microsoft SHIPPED.
I've no idea why so many on this website have got the impression that sony use sold because they don't. I've said this a million times with a million reasons to back me up but certain fanboys just don't listen.
In financial reports (what death was referring to) EVERY company in the world uses shipped - there is no way for them to know exactly how many are sold at the thousands of stores around the world and thats why tr...
but in total playtime (what the recent article was about) the wii has alot more playtime than the ps3 due to its higher userbase.
A community website like n4g really does show up the trashy reporting on video games which is a shame because n4g has the potential to be a brilliant website. All we seem to get is trashy articles bashing the flavour of the month - recently ps3 bashing was all the rage and before articles claiming the 360's imminent death and even the wii's death 18 months ago. Facts seem hard to come by. For example, in this article the author hasn't researched sales at all - the wii is not at 30 million - n...
because this period that is measured was jan 08 to october 08 - the 360 had a higher userbase than the wii for half the period and a bigger games library via being an older console.
everyone has one from kids to teenagers to people in their 20's to grandparents.
The psp has become the first challenger to a nintendo handheld that has stayed in their and held its own and offers many different functions.
So no the only thing apple could bring to the table is to show nintendo and sony how to make faulty products.
give it a chance!
that more people play wii than ps3. I thought no one played wii after 2 months? People didn't actually believe that did they?
puts the 360 1million ahead so how the hell can you say the ps3 is dominating? Jees! Theres ALOT of misinterpretation on this site. Its not helped either by kotakusuccs/alex m/cahill/nasim either.
the wii is ignored because it is convenient to ignore it. If it wasn't ignored then all these fights between the ps3 and 360 would be rendered useless and we all know fanboys love a good argument. People in the know realise that of course the wii is competing but just leave the fanboys to it. Their ignorance is not going to change the market.
If you don't think the wii competes then ask yourself this. The ps2 was at 8 million in Japan at the same point in its life as the ps3. T...
being so far from release date its done well.
Especially considering franchises like dragon quest and pokemon are much bigger in Japan.
but death of a dynasty?
When will these articles stop exaggerating?
ff13 coming out in the next 3 months? Hmm i'm not sure about that! I'm not good on release dates but isnt KZ2 the only game you listed coming out before April 1st. Is Yazuka even confirmed as coming to the west?
In terms of increasing sales for the ps3 it is not so much the games as LBP and resistance 2 would have done the trick. Instead its the price. When that is cut significantly ps3 sales will rise significantly. A price cut won't come before April 1st as they have already...
Really?
The last official figures we had a weeks ago from gfk put the 360 1 million ahead.
I don't need people telling me what or what not to buy or sell. If your happy with the wii then play it if not then sell it. What is this guy? A damn salesman?! The wii has a few decent games coming out soon so I will check them out and pass judgement on them myself unlike many on here who will never play them but just call them crap.
@drake - nintendo never played that card - the popularity of the wii took them by suprise and it takes time to buy new factories and set them up....
