You are going off of VG charts. VG charts is far from accurate.

If we go off of NPD figures....

The 360 is selling 150k more consoles than the ps3 every month in the USA.

The ps3 is only selling 40k a month more than the 360 in Japan.

In Europe the ps3 only sold 600k and dropped 80 somthin percent after the launch....

DO the damn math buddy. And think where you go wrong is actually taking VG charts as some sort of ...

Show the link to where the 360 has sold less than 1.3 million consoles in ONE quarter at any point since launch please. ha ha ha ha...

Once again....While the PS3 has just launched and is still in its launch window and has been focusing on USA and Japan up until just recently.....Microsoft has been shipping units Worldwide in 36 countries. I cant believe you don't understand simple logic. YOu compare 2 territories....When MS is bigger than that. They are selling all over th...

I disagree with you buddy. The ps3 is doing bad no matter what you compare and no matter how you spin it. The 360 launched a year ahead of the competion and had a Worldwide Launch and had a massive shortage. The 360 sold out as soon as stores recieved them all the way until March 2006. So while you obviously are attempting to compare the sales of the ps3 in Japan and US during the same time period of the 360 in Japan and the US. What you aren't taking into account is the 360 launched in ...

Not true buddy. The sales of the Ps3 in Japan are bad. The wii is at 50k a week in Japan and the ps3 is lingering in the 10k ish range.

Japan is 3rd in regards to console and game sales.

USA is the biggest gaming market by far.

Europe is Second but far ahead of Japan.

So while the ps3 and 360 are doing badly in Japan. The numbers that Ps3 acrues in Japan is not nearly enough to keep them on par with the 360 worldwide.

And I purchase the 6 in 2005. I haven't had any problems and I get a lot of use out of them. Every weekend I have gaming sessions with family and friends. All nighters....Maybe I'm just lucky.

But once again. Who buys a 300 plus piece of electronics and doesn't get the extended warranty?

I do for my cam corder, HD dvd player, Ps3, HD tvs, 360's, Sterio equipment, speakers, ect....

Its common sense. And for 50 dollars you get a 2 year warra...

I'm a gaming maniac...Its my hobby. I blame it all on my Father who worked for IBM for 25 yrs and when I was a kid he would buy the Arcade Units when they were released at 2k to 5k a pop. I'm not that bad...But I enjoy my games. I buy the good games...the bad games....I don't trust reviews...I just play them myself and enjoy them for what they are. I have 6 360's because I have them networked through out my house. I buy 6 copies of the Great games. The games that people come over and pl...

"The visuals of Unreal Tournament 3 are outstanding as well, but we will admit that Epic might have shot themselves in the foot with the Lancer. Yes, Gears of War is so aesthetically pleasing that even Epic’s later model Xbox 360 endeavors- including Unreal Tournament 3- won’t measure up."

I would have expected their Next Game using the same Engine would be at least as good as Gears Of War. But, then again....Gears of War has a slight advantage, most likely due to th...

All sold 800k to over One million Each worldwide. MS's first party lineup has been solid without Halo 3. And all those games were rated from 8 to 9's as well.

What gets me is SONY is still in its launch window yet its doing really bad in regards to games sales and console sales.

The 360 sales in Japan while aren't the best....The sales have gone up since the launch over a year ago. Anytime your sales are increasing....its a good thing. Sure it doesn't com...

Nintendo and Microsoft is doing really good. I would have thought that the highly touted Motorstorm would have helped the ps3 sales...I guess not. Maybe Lair or Heavenly sword will...I guess we'll see. I still think a price drop is the only thing that will help bolster the ps3 sales. The xbox 360 individual game sales dominated the top ten for the quarter as well. Interesting since we are still in the Wii and the Ps3's launch window.

BTW...Command and Conquer is absolutely...

Thank you very much buddy. So I guess I should select Expanded with my Elite via HDMI?

When you go to the "Systems" blade and then select "Console Settings" and then you select "Display"....

What does the Reference Levels selection do? There are 3 options once you click on it.

Standard
Intermediate
Expanded

What do they do? Anyone know?

I agree with you buddy. They are both Great games. I have it for the ps3 and I intend on buying it for my 360 Elite when its released. From my personal exprience the games tend to run better and look nicer on the 360.

But, both games are Great Fighting games. In regards to which looks better in the video....I would have to say its close. But, in my house, on my 1080p tv, with my ps3, and my Elite hooked up via hdmi....I would have to say that honestly Dead or Alive Looks...

HD DVD being behind Blu ray 2000 units total is not bad when we are talking about 1 million vs 998 thousand my friend.

There is how many ps3's on the market? 2 million? 3 million?

There is 100k stand alone HD dvd players on the market....which is more than Blu ray stand alones 4 to 1.

But yet total blu ray and HD dvd sales are neck and neck in total sales.

Sure HD dvd launched a few months before blu ray.

But, Si...

"The recent pres-release-bickering between the HD-DVD and Blu-ray camps isn't terribly new, though most previous spats have gone down in the midst of large trade shows. The most recent squabbling began when HD-DVD celebrated the format's birthday by announcing that 100,000 dedicated players had been sold, preserving the format's hardware lead, not counting the PlayStation 3 (story). Blu-ray fired back, announcing that Blu-ray movie sales had reached the 1,000,000-sold milestone, and adde...

Why do you continue to lie? I have no idea what drives your lies and mis information. But if that what makes you sleep better at night...ha ha ha ha ha....

MS cearly stated in "MY" links that they have "SOLD" 10.4 million consoles since launch to the end of 2006. The links you posted are from the editors satying that its most likely shipped numbers. Not from MS. In their financial report that they file with the IRS....It clearly shows that MS has "...

I'm sorry buddy. But you are wrong. Microsoft "SOLD" 10.4 million by the end of 2006. Sony lovers say "Shipped" and Microsofts financial reports clearly shows "SOLD".

Who to believe. hmmmmmm....ha ha ha ha ha...Come on buddy...Why is the truth so hard for fanboys to swallow? Get over it.

Stated at the end of November that they shipped their 10 millionth xbox 360....

Mid January Microsoft announced via financial reports that they had "SOLD" 10.4 million consoles by the end of December 2006.

Microsoft has sold 5.5 million consoles in the USA

Where do you think the other 5 million consoles were sold folks?

Think about it. USA is the biggest market for video games in the world. And Europe is second. Japan is...

The ps3 and the Wii just recently launched...so you expect a burst in the first few months.....

The fact remains that the xbox 360 leads in Wordwide sales for next gen consoles.....But more importantly....they have a record breaking 5.7 games being sold per console. Thats what developers want to hear....More consoles in the homes....and more gamers buying games.....

The Wii and the ps3's attach rate is 1 to 2 games sold per console.

So keep in min...

Then we can compare the demo's of both games.....GT's demo is already released....Forzas is not.

I have played the GT demo....Its very very very very boring. The track is boring...the cars are boring....While yes the cars look photo realistic...the textures are flat and the backgrounds look blah....But the cars look photo realistic....

I haven't played the Forza 2 demo yet so we can't judge nor speak on it....But we can say this....

While GT3 had ...
