not too good for sony in NA
this includes the launch week of the PS3 slim.
I expect the PS3 to edge out the 360 in Sept and then for sales to return to normal in the holiday season.
are you guys high? slims have been on sale almost all week in the US.
1) Release new slimmer console with much fanfare
2) Reduce price by $100
3) Launch $150 million dollar ad campaign
4) Sell 800 more consoles than your competitor in the USA on launch week
5) ???
6) Profit.
360 will definitely make the top ten.
Yep. You make kitty scared.
People pre-order because really popular games like Halo and Modern Warfare get sold out.
Oh wait didn't the 360 sell 7+ million more than the PS3 worldwide according to both companies own numbers?
7 million is a large number, buckaroo.
edit: excuses, excuses, excuses. blah, blah, blah, sony will do this..,sony will do that...I've been hearing them since launch from you crybabies. get a life. it's a gaming console. nothing more.
I expect the sales to match with possibly a slight PS3 advantage until the holiday season when the 360 reasserts its dominance.
people complain because PSN sucks compared to XBL gold. they just want Sony to get their sh6t together with PSN like they want MS to get their sh6t together with RROD.
SDF, HOOOOOOOO!
Sony could take a dump on PSN and the SDF would come rushing to their assistance.
Such is the state of gaming journalism. seriously, guys are still stuck in their adolescence.
omg, gay in title *giggles* he said gay *giggles*
What is he Beavis?
SDF ATTAAAAAAAAAAACK!
zomg, the uncharted water looks REALLY BAD. So does GTA4.
No kidding. The PS3 browser is lolworthy.
why's that? We pay a small fee for an online service that kicks the crap out of PSN. PS3 users are getting "the shaft" because PSN sucks compared to XBL gold.
I would rather pay for high quality then get something that is low quality and free. How is waiting in excess of 3 years for cross-game chat implementation (a feature on XBL at launch) working for you? No thanks.
yes, they did. But expect 100 disagrees anyway
Left 4 Dead on PS3?
Gears of War on PS3?
Splinter Cell on PS3?
Mass Effect on PS3?
Alan Wake on PS3?
Star Ocean on PS3?
etc. etc.
Why is the PS3 so desperate for 360 games?
@morganfell
for the 100th time Sony puts a ton of money into Amazon promotions and ad space and typically do much better than MS on the Amazon charts, even long before the slim the PS3 was far ahead of the 360 on Amazon. However, one look at NPD and you realize Amazon is not a good gauge for USA sales.
I expect the PS3 slim to match and maybe slightly exceed the 360 for a couple months in the USA until the Holiday season and then the 360 will pull ahead again. you di...
mgs4 sucks, dude. it's like watching sci-fi written by a 12 year old--
zomg, bionics!1 zomg, secret world organization!1 zomg, ninjas! zomg, robots! zomg, weapons of mass destruction! zomg, cyborgs!! zomg, where are the pirates!?!
so original.
the dialogue is borderline retardedly awkward...at times feels like it's written by an obsessive compulsive idiot with a scat fetish.
did i mention that with the exception of Old Snake (english version...
already preordered
