Under preforming games are usually crappy ones. So if they are not listed to buy then they will have less people pissed off at buying crap.
The image of winning is important for all these companies. I am sure MS is doing other things to make their numbers look good too.It is just the out right lies that bother me. I mean my third grade teacher lied to me telling me that Africa is a continent.
Middle East and Africa as part of Europe? Come on Sony just include the countries on the European Continent!
of modded 360's for the grey market to flourish? Wouldn't that also effect the warranty policies with people trying to get modded boxes fixed from RROD? Piracy is the probably why they are pulling out. Just too much money lost, they sell the system at a discount, try to make money back on games and they still lose money there thanks to piracy.
NPD is an estimate anyway based on sales figures from only some retailers( not including WalMart). So they are trying to guess a guess. What a bunch of geniuses.
notice you can use meat shields now? That was sick and then he broke the locust neck and tossed the body game is hot.
And in the end,kill the word of mouth that drives sales.Not everyone is a pirate, but getting caught out there after buying a crappy CD, Movie or Game is something we have all experienced. What about consumer rights to get their money back after buying some crap that was advertised to be something entirely different, you advertised to be good entertainment.
Is that people will buy a PS3 just to play this game. If you love GTA you are buying a PS3 or 360 right now so it isn't about install base it is about game sales.
If it is anything like what they said it will be. This game will be pirated like crazy. And that is the problem with PC gaming. People will get the game and never pay. So sure ignore the PS3 and the 360, they may be old systems as he says in the interview. But they are the only place where a Hi def games will make money.
Yeah I am Iron Man
If the game is obviously inferior. They would not make their money back on the game much less a profit.
It has one dual threaded core and and 9 spe's one deactivated one for system functions and the other seven for developers to use to break down data to feed to the cpu. It all still goes through cpu the spe's just do the calculation work so the cpu can do the general purpose game work.
about ore alpha? Not final graphics by two generations
Fricking PS2 sold almost 140 - 150 million. how do you go up from there in two years? The console market is adjusting itself. The PS2 was an anomaly. May never happen again. And also the PS3 and 360 are not at mass market price yet. Analysts need to just not jump to conclusions without considering the history of the market they are talking about.
more consoles are sold? The more consoles people have the less the average numbers of games per console. The reason they said the 360's attach ratio was so high was because hardcore gamers by games. So with the 360 you have some great games, but stagnant growth (system is not selling any better than last year). With the PS3 you see good growth but not spectacular. And their must have games consist of 4 or 5 games( reason for their lower attach rate with only hardcore gamers buying games). The...
killing white zombies. If you want it be equal make the protagonist black also. Then you have black on black crime another issue to deal with.
they would have to rebuild the game from the ground up. They have stated this many times. For the low sales that originals would get it is not worth remaking the game.
poetic justice
As much as I hate to say it the Wii will dominate 2008. When it sells more than the 360 and PS3 combined. The gaming world has gone cukoo. Hardcore gamers maybe going the way of art house films. A specialty niche amongst the industry.
Asia is number one because of starcraft. I just want to know what the breakdown is for console gaming.
