Stores like Best Buy and Circuit City. I am sure that larger retailers will be receiving the bulk of PS3's.
Sony has spent a ton of money to promote the PS3 in larger retail chains.
And as of right now, none of the large retailers are doing pre-orders.
Its not selling out around here!? Only one store didn't have them when I called and it was because they only received 3 to begin with. My local Circuit City had at least 10 of them on the shelf. And BTW I purchased mine last week the day after Totem Ball was released. So they had been sitting around for a while.
My point is that IMO it isn't a "must have" item.
Not to say it isn't fun or "worth" the money.
But by no means...
When will Sony release the memo stating:
Dear Sony Associate,
Unless your name is Phil Harrison, please
STFU!
Sincerely,
Sony Corp!
This memo needs to get out there FAST!
There are a couple of things that need to be done to make the "vision camera" a "must have" accessory.
First off, Lower the price by taking out the headset! I don't need two of them! And most people who don't have one (because they purchased the core) can pick one up with a Live subscription package.
Second, Just give us 800 MS points rather than restricting the free game to Uno. Granted, I would have purchased Uno with the 800 MS points bu...
The information was taken from 2000 interviews. They then plugged the information from the 2000 interviews and used a 2004 population census to draw up their conclusion.
So lets just say that 1200 out of 2000 of those interviewed said they were buying a PS3.
The company then takes that data along with the population census from 2004 of 13-54 year olds and equates it out.
The problem is that all of these numbers listed is from a series of 2000 in...
Is the survey itself.
Its based off of 2000 interviews!
Those numbers were then combined with a population census from 2004.
Its a BS manipulation of numbers!
You will never get accurate numbers from interviewing 2000 people. You are doing more assuming than anything else.
The only true test will be "consoles sold"!
These surveys are garbage!
If this is Sony's answer to XBL, its a pitiful one!
Flame me all you want, but the proof is right in front of your faces!
Notice the word "SEEMS" as in he "SEEMS" to speak the truth!
I never said that he "ALWAYS" speaks the truth.
Every system has been hacked.
Dreamcast, PS2, PSone, XBox, 360, even Gamecube! So yes, the PS3 will be hacked as well.
It will be very hard, but it will happen!
And BTW, your post makes no sense whatsoever! This is talking about playing pirated (copied) 360 games on a modded XBox360.
Where are you coming up with this notion of playing PS3 games on a 360 or vise-versa?
No story! Just a larger pic!
I wonder if the fall update is going to address this issue?
At least for the "live" aspect of it.
No matter what, he seems like he speaks the truth. Even if it does make him look like an ass at times.
And the fact that when questions need to be answered, you see Peter Moore answering them!
That is also why many people love Reggie Fils-Aime for Nintendo.
There are too many people answering questions and making statements for Sony. Phil Harrison should be the only one answering questions! IMO Sony's PR image would look a whole lot cleaner ...
Phil Harrison needs to be the only talking about anything that has to do with the PS3!
Just like Peter Moore for the 360.
Sure, I'll play the free beta!
But considering I already paid for online service (XBL Gold), there is no way I am paying another $10 a month to play this game online.
Dante is right! You are an idiot!
Not only because you are completely missinformed of world events, but the fact that you actually tying to link console sales to war.
Just stop. You really are making yourself look like a complete fool!
Its too bad that this game is being released on the same exact day that Gears Of War is released.
I know that COD2 was a very popular game for the 360 but I wonder why they would release COD3 on the same day as the most hyped game that has been released to date on the 360.
Oh well, I guess I'll be spending $120 on November 7th!
Its kind of cool that Lost Planet almost never came into existance!
But the developers really believed it could be a great title and IMO the demo, screenshots, and previews speak for themselves!
Lets just face it, when it comes to gaming, the Japanese are set on Nintendo and Sony.
And why not?
The Japanese had technically owned the gaming industry for the last 20 or so years. M$ is a little over 5 years into this thing. And that being said, this is really the first time that M$ has even tried to appeal to the Japanese market with games such as Blue Dragon and Lost Oddyssey.
Trust me, this is no big shock to me whatsoever. I have always...
Oblivion, COD2, and GRAW! AAA titles. You said zero.
But anyway, I don't want to go down this PS3/360 road with this thread.
I am just leaving it at "I am still not buying a PS3" and that "Motorstorm looks good"!
Sadly its all about who the game appeals too. All of the games you listed are hailed as "great games that no one is playing".
The funny thing is that even though I have been told that these are great games, I have only played three that you have listed.
Another problem is that the "hype" isn't there. "Hype" sells! Even if the game sucks! Look how many copies of the original Killzone sold off of hype alone. I can admit that I fel...
