"but since you're not willing to let go of your preferences for xbox, you are unwilling to see which is the better value."
Dont attack me if I don't agree with you. Microsoft payed 50 million to secure exclusive content for all Xbox360 owners, now you come one this thread and spew on about how its somehow bad and insignificant. If it was a move by sony, I'm 100% percent sure you and your fellow sony supporters would have creamed your pants by now.
"I said ...
C'mon DJ, now you're getting silly. You think Sony will get extra episodes for free while Msoft had to pay for them? Get real. The jealousy is so thick you can cut it with a knife!
I don't understand why you are trying so hard to downplay this.
You don't have to have an XBL gold account to get this DLC, a free silver account will do. (in response to your earlier comment)
"if it's a dvd sized update (9 gigs), all xboxers will have to buy a new HDD"
All the textures and sound fx will already be on the retail copy of GTAIV, the size of the DLC will be significantly less than the size of a DVD.
"1 billion mi...
"its quite clear if microsoft didnt have good software backing up their system it would be absolutly dead"
Any system will be dead if it didn't have any good software. Quit trolling -> open zone please
Thats not a very smart thing to say -> minus bubbles
If it wasn't for Toshiba and HD-DVD, blu-ray will even be more expensive than it is right now, quit being ignorant
You guys only look at the negatives of the 360, take off your fanboy caps and realize that people have LOTS of fun with the 360, regardless of RROD and the "the paper sleeve Lost Odessy case" *sigh
There is a lot of games thats better than Halo3, its a matter of opinion. Halo 3 is the king because of it's sales, no other FPS beats it in sales. If COD4 passes it in sales, then COD4 is king.
This is getting sad. Every day there is a RROD story that says the same thing. It's getting to a point where I don't read the articles anymore. This isn't news anymore!
"The 360 fans buy everything"
Thats because they are gamers. Some people enjoyed Cane & Lynch regardless of the controversy and bad reviews.
You realy need to be in the Open Zone. Reported as spam
Have you read about the fixes Msoft is implementing to counter the RROD? Extra heat sync, 45nm chips, ect. The RROD's is getting less and less. I believe it's going the other way, that we are going to see less of the RROD. Anywho, my console is nearly a year old now and still going strong without any signs of RROD. Keeping my fingers crossed though.
"User-generated content, social networking, that's what the psn is doing and Live isn't so much, if at all."
Totally disagree with you. The only thing PSN is doing better than Live is the user generated content. Live has better social networking and marketplace. You just get a better product for a paid service. PSN is probably great but not as great as Live.
As for the RROD, it has tainted the xbox image, but there is much life left in the Xbox360 befor...
Don't confuse the Xbox360 with the PS3
"10.5 million PS3s have been sold so far,"
only 9.6 million -> http://vgchartz.com/hwcomps...
"with around 8.5 million sold in 2007"
Actualy, only 7.2 million -> http://vgchartz.com/hwcomps...
" if they can average about 300,000 units per territory each month, they'll definitely ...
"You figure it takes a year to put a game out, by then Wii will probably be at 28~30 million and PS3 will be at around 20~22 million install base figures."
The PS3 is now at 9 million. You are saying it will be at 20 million in 12 months
That means that from now on, the PS3 must sell 916 666 units per month to reach yout estimate.
I know the PS3 is picking up momentum but be real, not in 12 months. Please do the math before posting estima...
"facts are facts, even when they don't blow sunshine up your beehind, this is the part 360 diehards have trouble come to terms with."
My response was directed at The_Engineer, I just wanted to point out whats wrong with what he said.
I just asked a question why chitown lost interest in the game that went multiplat but The_Engineer wrote a post insulting everybody who supports the xbox360. I don't understand why my post was deleted by the mod when The_Engineer i...
I see your point. Bubbles for presenting your argument in a logical and mature way.
"You accuse me of attacking you? where?"
"but since you're not willing to let go of your preferences for xbox, you are unwilling to see which is the better value"
That is a nice way of telling me I'm a fanboy.
"gotta disagree, all you claim is speculation. no way is it going to be as big as vice city or san andreas. that's a dvd, I'd understand if they were willing to ship dvds (basically another game), but we all know that ain't the case. if ...
