There's nothing wrong with mandatory installs, as you can upgrade the HDD to much bigger sizes, very cheaply. Whereas, with the 360, you can only buy a set HDD, made my MS, for stupidly high prices.
Christmas could go either way, but Wii has won already.
Sure, the 360 is cheaper, but the majority of their games are for more mature audiences, and generally people in the older half of the market do their research. Blu Ray is a massive attraction for a lot of people, and LBP will appeal to younger audiences.
In these economic times, it means people will want to spend less, but it also means they'll be more wary about what they purchase, chances are they'll do rese...
Good things come to those who wait.
"Hell, Sony is still losing money on every ps3 sold, and the console will be the first thing to go if they need to cut something. Microsoft has been making profit on the 360 for a while now."
Well, if Microsoft are still making a profit on the 360 at $200 a pop, then that raises a serious question about the quality of the hardware there using.

What's this? Fable 2 needs a patch?
A patch? On my 360?
It's more likely than your think. Click here to run a free Fable 2 glitch detector.
:D Couldn't resist.
Death lag, possible, but it could be realism. You don't just fall over the second a bullet hits you in real life, you'd stagger, and then fall.
This is recorded off a TV and is the Beta, and yet it still looks awesome.
February can't come soon enough :)
@larry, where did you pull those facts from? MS is one of the biggest companies in the world. Sony is huge too, but not as big as Microsoft. Neither company will acquire the other any time soon.
"Your average consumer buys a game console to PLAY GAMES!"
Exactly. With Blu Ray, more games which push the boundaries are possible, which DVD isn't capable of.
"Yeah Sony, because it's worked so well so far right?"
Seems to me it has. A lot of people are interested in Blu Ray. And the product of choice is the PS3.
"Ive said it once and I will say it again. Blu-ray will be the demise of Sony. Stop being in denial and understand this. Do the research for yourself Im not making this sh#t up. If you still dont understand I will pull out pie graphs and charts for you guys to understand. In 10 months time mark my words, Blu-ray the overhyped, incomplete and overpriced format will be a thing of the past I assure you."
I've asked so many Xbots why Blu-Ray will cause the demise of the PS3...
"Mirrors Edge - Not Released Yet (Nov 11)
Skate 2 - Not Released Yet (2009)"
PS3 is lead platform for both of these games, as well as FFXIII. 95% chance they will be better on PS3, because they're designed specifically for the hardware, like MGS4.
"Eternal Sonata - Critics already stating 360 version is superior
Dead Space - Critics already stating 360 version is superior"
Source or it didn't happen.

Bullcrap.
It's what, 2 years in to the PS3's lifetime of an expected 10. It's had strong sales all year up until last month, which is probably the time it needed them most, due to the economic downturn, which hasn't helped things.
Look at last gen. PS2 was way behind the Dreamcast, but it picked up, and history seems to be repeating itself.
Seriously, PS3 might turn out to be Sony's last console, but all these journalists reporting about that it's alread...
No one has said anything about Fable being a flop here what so ever.
If a game gets straight 10s, the chances of it selling badly are next to nothing, and you say other people "talk out of their arse"?
89% is not a flop, you are correct there, but it has had some pretty mixed reviews, of course, that doesn't make it a flop, but with the hype it received, some of those lower scores are surprising indeed. Oh and by the way, the Metacritic score is now 90%.
What is wrong with Patches? At all. On WoW, do you curse life because there's a new patch out?
Patches are a great thing. The firmware updates or "patches" add new things, sure, you have to download it. So what?
So you won't be getting the NXE, which is an update, aka a patch by the way, because you have to download it?
Put excellently. Bubbles for you :)
Sadly, I see at least one member cannot read, or else has the intelligence of a wart.
Again, you fail to admit it.
Admitting you have a problem is the first step to getting cured.
Uhh no.
If he was saying they were 100% games, he would have said '100% games'. And you referred to they're score as '9.4, 9.5' not '94%, 95%' ect. True, that's what he may of meant, but from what was implied and what we know to be true, it's unlikely. Why make a claim that everyone knows isn't true?
Truth doesn't hurt me at all. But the truth that your a fanboy obviously hurts you a considerable amount.
Make a 'greatest hits' bundle - Halo 3 and Gears 1 and 2 and it would sell like hot cakes.
All fanboys are garbage. The Sony fanboys think their the underpopulated faction, and the Xbox fanboys think their the underpopulated faction. When really, it's a 1:1 ratio.
You know, nearly all of your comments you filter evade. And you know what? I've reported all of them. Grow up and show a bit of respect.
The majority of fanboys do it. Yes, your included in 'fanboys'. And seriously, the droid to xbot ratio is about 1:1.
Nice job reading the article.
