Who said that Europe equals the world?
See what you did? You flat out lied to everyone here. Claiming that Europe is the world. You cannot find one person whop has claimed that. You're creating lies and making false accusations. You create a false dichotomy by saying "Well if NPD doesn't count then Europe must count to you SONY fanboys." This is massive failure.
No no.
No one ever said USA doesn't matter. What ppl are saying is that USA is only a share of the market and that WW sales are what determines the state of the console war. You cannot treat the NPD data as if it is the sole determinant of the war, the exact same way that the Europe market cannot determine the leader.
Oh for fuck sake. Shall I post the numbers that contradict NPD When it comes to the Nebraska market?
Nebraska, Alaska and Ohio -
PS3- 2.2 million
360- 1.3 million
See, they're in the US, but those figures count.
Hate to say it, but we as consumers need hackers in a way.
Big corporations have been screwing the public for decades. As a consumer I want the most I can get out of my product. Guys who write code and create great fly by night programs are very valuable depending on what system you're using. Whether it be a WinMo phone or an iPhone or whatever. ALL the big corporations know very well that there is a huge risk of piracy when they decide to invest in the market of gaming mac...
The headline should have continued ........"due to the fact that the 360 is now a paperweight without the new peripheral."
Perhaps if the PS3 was dying and SONY users were forced into the new peripheral then it would have done much better.
Sadly though, only the 360 has dropped support for real games in favor of shovelware with a camera.
When Kinect is your only option for the console........... guess you'd better play it.
It's even worse how RROD boys conveniently forget that fact.
DS is a mobile device and NPD is USA only.
This entire article is as useless as tits on a moose.
Next we will be reading that the 360 has outsold the PS3 during the holidays from NPD.
There are a hell of a lot of American kids dancing and petting baby leopards then.
Meanwhile....... the rest of the globe is enjoying Blu_Ray and the best console exclusives.
destroying it? How? By selling less machines in the same time span?
Yeah this guy's opinion is the opposite of mine, and many others. The GAME was out fucking standing.
I guess the article's opinionater isn't tired of cookie cutter games that hold your hand.
Heavy Rain is brilliant in every way. The story isn't perfect, but it certainly hooks you in (provided you aren't 14 years old), and the character builds are amazing.
BTW - you can fail. Shaun dying is fail. Ethan dying prior to findin...
whats the big deal? It's 12 Gb. Go buy the disk if you can't spare 12Gb. It isn't 50, or 80. Am I the only guy who erases his old needless data? Do you guys leave the old game data there to look at or something? When a game is done, it's done. The trophies remind you of your accomplishments, not the data. I suppose movies and music do take up a lot, but 12 Gb isn't exactly going to break the ice here. It means that there's a lot of content to play. This is a ...
Does "finally" mean "once again" in the author's native tongue?
The red ring is going to clash with the gold. Should offer a silver one.
Im just kidding. A gold plated console is pretty silly though.
Same here. I eventually sold mine because I just wasn't using it. I play online for free, and the PS3 just has way way more variey and exclusives. I really dodn't like Halo because it felt like laser tag (which is why I do not care for Resistance either), and I don't like Gears. So after those 2 franchises what is there? Kinect? Please! The 360 is a great console at the core, but the lack of exclusivity really damages its brand.
I love multiplats too. AC is my favorite series, but how can you say rehash when you have games like inFamous and Heavy Rain? These games are innovating and making gaming way more fun. Oh... Dante's Inferno was a great multiplat game too.
SONY exclusives are just a little to the left. There's just a different feel to them. When you play them, you cal clearly see that a lot more TLC and attention to detail went into making them. That's why I love them. Unch...
Play Heavy Rain and put in a healthy dose of a 5 month P2P Demon's Souls binge!
You will thank us later when you see how truly immersive and variety laden the PS3 is. Whatever your interest, there are games for you. It's not just a FPS box. It only does everything.
OK My name is Soulcalibur!
Sorcery?
Unless you're a little kid and love Harry Potter, this game has absolutely nothing to offer. Im sorry, but I cannot see having fun with that one. The rest of the games should be lots of fun for me. I'm sure people will buy all of them. KZ3 will sell especially well.
LMAO Scandinavian violence at its finest! I always knew the Finns were up to no good and violent.
