This "sales boost" has very little to do with the slim and more to do with the discounting that microsoft is doing on the older unites. They have cut prices by 50 bucks on all models and that alone was enough to spur most of these sales. Once the older units are gone and the dust settles the 360 will fall back into the same ole and being outsold world wide by the ps3.. Oh as a fun note this jump in 360 sales is mostly thanks to the american market.. Its still being outsold in japan ...
NO this is autostereoscopic 3d which is FAR more expensive and highly unlikely as a viable product for some time to come.. It has nothing to do with sony's R&D being able to do it.. It's all about how viable a product it can be.. So once again you fail as human being..
Well the word actually appears in the lyrics and it had a nice ring to it that kind of stuck out for me.. I also had a joke about how copies of gran turismo 5 will "dissipate" off of store shelves come november 2nd lol..
I just sent in my official application.. I named the song "Dissipate" what do you all think of this title? I'm kind of nervous because that would be epic if I won! Please leave feedback!!!
ROFL LMAO! Geez im laughing so hard i'm crying.. Lord save me... bubbles sir, bubbles...
He didnt admit they made a mistake with the cell he admits that it was a complex architecture and took some creativity and forward thinking on their part to get developers on the same page. In the end we the gamers benefited because now we have games that are mindblowing and not run of the mill upscaled sequels. If they made a mistake with the ps3 then why exactly is gabe newell retracting his verbose and malicious statements of the ps3? Nuff said troll, get back under your bridge...
I love how gabe "fat ass" newell had to eat the only thing in the world he didnt want to eat... That was a large slice of humble pie! How does it taste gabe? Does it feel good to eat your words? Didn't think so, next time dont be such a fanboy and remember that when all of those microsoft marketing dollars dry up you have no one but yourself to blame... BTW BBC I am a subscriber of yours on youtube, great videos!!!
This is exactly how I feel. Microsoft's buisness practices apall me. They rush their product to market despite knowing about the rrod issues, lie to their customers and even accuse them of misuse which led to the red ring, charge for a service that in essence is the same as psn, require that you buy a whole slew of acessories and add-ons to match the ps3 and call it "options". I just dont see how the 360 faithful can put up with so much abuse.
Jere made a good correlation. Gobs of ram isn't the end all technology, it all boils down to how efficient your ram is. Ram is only so important on pc's due to the fact that the newer operating systems have such large "footprints" Thats where the overclocking of gpus comes in. They are essentially multiplying the amount of data the processor is capable of churnning through. While this generates enormous amounts of heat it allows more processes to occur using the same amount ...
What is sad is how you rationalized this poor excuse for a response. Yea the 360 launched first, they did so as an incomplete console. No wifi built in, no hdmi port, no optical out, no interchangeable hard drives, out-dated dvd 9 technology... Microsoft knew the ONLY way to compete with a company like sony was to beat them to market. So they did and at the expense of its fans and userbase. Despite knowledge of the red ring of death microsoft launched anyway and it was a at least a 1 billion...
This console generation isn't even half way over and your calling victory? Microsofts 360 fanbase is mostly comprised of the people who bought the original xbox, the wii has a solid lock on the casual market. So in essence sony is surviving just fine in a crowded market and is even selling more consoles year on year than the 360. Keep buying into microsofts huge list of PR bull.. I'll keep playing top notch games on a reliable console with free online play..
God with each passing day I hate activision and bobby kotick even more. He is the worst kind of representitive for our industry and he's just a money hungry prick. What makes matters worse is people continue to just throw money at him like naive little sheep that only care about playing modern warfare and WoW. I fear for us all if he gains anymore power...
You see this is why you and the legion of 360 faithful are all full of fail.. You ravenously support a console that has the highest recorded failure rate of any console ever made, you pay for a service that is in essence the same as psn, and you think useless features justify the whole experience. JustTheFactsMr is absolutely right, during the rrod outbreak millions of people just rebought the 360. Thus inflating actual sales numbers significantly and since microsoft won't release actual ...
To all of the people saying it "cant" be done are way off base. Its not a matter of can or cannot, clearly it can be done but what sony is looking at is the feature useful enough to warrant the hit the ram will take to implement. I know alot of people want it but why? Because it's the one thing the 360 has that the ps3 doesnt. Its just a game of posturing, anything that microsoft can use to slow the momentum of the ps3 they will use. I have personally witnessed cross game chat i...
I am sick and tired of all of you people screaming about cross game chat.. Just wait when it finally comes out and you see how invasive it is while playing call of duty or something where team co-ordination is very important you will find you dont use it at all.. I promise you this. Besides its a social feature and in no way augments or improves the core gameplay at all. Its just a bullet point for the 360 zealots to hold over the ps3 and frankly its all they have.. You talk about private cha...
You can talk with fellow gamers, You can charge your controllers when the console is off with a charge stand(15 bucks for mine, alot less then a years worth of batteries) I can read messages instantly, ohh and blu-ray accounts for nearly half of all movie sales. You can stream blu-ray? No you can stream ripped, and compressed files that dont have the same fidelity as content streamed from the disc. Ohh and your 360 doesnt allow 7.1 surround sound.. Soo yea have fun with your "future tech...
Lol you do realize that att and tmobile are the only carriers that have tru 3g? Verizon uses an upgraded system that is in function still 2g but a little faster. Att's 4g is just an upgraded 3g network.. I would like to see it come too att so I dont have to break my contract.. lol
PSP PHONE!!!! Ohh i'm getting excited thinking about it... A phone in the vain of the iphone/droid with on the go gaming, video playback, internet, walkman, and can stream content from my ps3!!!!!!!!
Seriously why do people continue to buy microsofts products? They're rushed, poorly designed, they lie to their consumers, are arrogant as hell for no reason, overpriced, lacking features standard on other devices, charge for everything.... Yet americans cant get enough of em.. I just dont get it..
Alan wake was mediocre. I only played about an hour and a half before I became bored...
