GFK released official confirmation that PS3 and X360 are both at 500 000 units in JAPAN
Vg has ps3 at 450k and x360 at 650k???
Vgchartz deflated x360 numbers in NA for OCT/NOV by 180 k and 60k respectively.
At the same time they downgraded PS3 sales by 130k.
VGCHARTZ still havent fixed that
VGCHARTZ x360 numbers are DEFLATED by atleast 1 MILLION
VICE VERSA for PS3 numbers
VGCHARTZ is owned...
However ps3 went on to beat x360 by 60 000 units
even PS2 went on to beat x360 in terms of total worldwide sales for the week
UNCHARTED reached 750 000 units
well done
x360 sold 16m in 2 years not 20m.
2008 will decide the war .However ps3 has the best lineup this year spearheaded by MGS4 and FF13
when DVD was launched several people actually said the same thing about CD
now when i watch DVD movies on my 60" LED DLP i feel like bashing my TV.
However as soon as i played PIRATES 3 at 1080p .......me as well other persons in my family were like WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
anyone who HAS MONEY and an HD TV might never watch a DVD /DD movie after watching a BD movie on BIG HD TV at 1080p
now ban GAMESPOT,1up and EUROGAMER ----horrible anti SONY websites
so yes PS3 won BD the format war
in a sense PS3 won the FORMAT war with europeans being heavy purchasers of BD movies.
There is no future other than BLU.
DD could replace rentals .....well why didnt PPV take off then???
norms will remain the same .
If DD ever takes off in 2015/2020 then would be MODIFIED DD by SONY /any JAPANESE company not some unrealistic slow DD by MS.
Why would you rent a movie at 6$...
It redefines gaming actually
PS3 will win the CONSOLE war just like the FORMAT war
However it is always good to have a bigger fanbase.
SONY could have an extra 25/30m x360 oweners to their BD base too
so why not expand the base and make more money
The console war would be won BUT WHY NOT GIVE THE OPPORTUNITIES TO X360 OWNERS to enjoy BD movies too?
well said
It is the second biggest GAME of this ERA after FF13
Rather indulge themselves in distant FANTASIES of RENTAL SERVICE of 720p MOVIES reigning over movies in PHYSICAL DISCS at 1080p
I have never seen companies as shortsighted as MS???
a full HD movie takes up 50gig...200gig as in case of planet EARTH.
How do they even expect people to download 50gig from the net when AVERAGE JOE doesnt even download a DIVX movie of 1 gig space
are u an HD DVD owner by chance?
dont fall for unrealistic Billy jokes.
DD will take off BUT ONLY IN DISTANT FUTURE
U want people to purchase an HDD for every movie you wannna see
U want people to pay 6$ for renting a movie over a SPAN of 3 DAYS??
oh really???
Then how come we dont see HD movies RELEASED officially by WARNER/any studio excepting the PIRATED ONES released on some torrent websites
The DD is not even full HD
You rent a movie for 6$ for a span of 3 days.
why would i do that when i could get a BD disc for 10$
DD ????
How many movies are purchased at LIVE??
almost nothing
This is a potion for MS to soothe its...
so it is VALID
poor Bill Gates and Toshiba
Bill thinks DD is the future.
wow just wow
People would prefer rental service over PHYSICAL DISCs ???
why would i rent a movie for 6$ at 720p when i could easily get a PHYSICAL BD disc for 10$
rather than inventing these FANTASTICAL IDEAS Billy atleast do something for the 300k HD DVD owners who might now feeel cheated
@YomieViet
wh...
the 3 biggest games of 2008 are PS3 exclusive --FF13,MGS4 and GT5
some might add LBP too
i saw that too. Yes that basically means that Paramount wont release anything on HD DVD anymore since they are also in the process of defecting . I think Universal might and PROBABLY WILL do the same
NOW
after WARNER's announcement
TOSHIBA---the maker of HD DVD itself has ALMOST given in .no conf at CES (hd dvd conf i mean)
WHy wont u give in .
even 90% of HD DVD owners at AMAZON ALSO GAVE IN
http://www.eproductwars.com...
IT IS OVER
Paramount and Universal would also give in
DONT FORGET :- SPIDERMAN 3 was the biggest hit in US last year followed by PIRATES 3(on a global basi...
The 2 biggest games of this era are on PS3 and due THIS YEAR and MS claims that 2008 is the best year for X360???????
best year in games == year without games???
GT5,FF13,MGS4,LBP ---all the biggest games of this year are DUE ON PS3 EXCLUSIVELY!!!
we are also getting better MULTI PORTS eg DMC 4,BURNOUT etc
BD will rule until 2015 when DD /perhaps some holographic digital transfer might take up hold
