The same reason it is hard to believe that most consumers chose Microsoft Windows.

The European antitrust commission that is investigating Sony's Blu-ray now is the same body that investigated Microsoft over Windows and Internet Explorer many times before.

We would not have judged *if* Sony had not said some very arrogant things like how 5 million people would buy PS3 even if PS3 launched without any game, (i.e., PS3 still has not sold 5 million units,) and how PS3 would crush Wii at launch, (the reality has turned out to be the complete opposite.)

Now that PS3 has failed to live up to Sony's arrogant remarks, Sony is telling people not to judge!? If Sony did not want people to judge, then Sony should not have made all the stupid...

Xbox Live, on the other hand, is maintained and regulated by Microsoft. Microsoft owns the Live network. It's not and shouldn't be a "free for all" environment.

but Japanese games reek of their white-worshiping mentality. Just look at the characters in Japanese games, anime and manga: they are usually WHITE.

then HD DVD actually has a triple-layer variety that offers 51GB (i.e., 17GB per layer.) That's 1GB more than Blu-ray's 50GB disc storage limit. Don't believe me? You can go google it or look it up yourself.

The 51GB HD-DVD is already available as blank disc, (not that end consumers like us would actually need or buy the BLANK discs at the moment,) and it's compatible with the regular HD DVD. Movie studios also won't be using the 51GB discs anytime soon because the 30GB disc...

I know that langauge... it's Aramaic! The voiceover sounds just like Cartman as little Hitler! I learned that from South Park The Passion of the Jew episode. I'm so smart! :D

Does anyone know Aramaic? Can anyone translate it?

Stop approving all the submissions that have absolutely NOTHING to do with gaming.

Like Scientology, it costs $$$ to stay in the cult.

OT1 = Mac = $1500+
OT2 = iBook/MacBook = another $1500+
OT3 = iPod = $200+
OT4 = iPhone = $500+
...

Apple fanboys set the bar for extreme fanboyism.

and I saw the price for iPhone, which makes PS3 look like one hell of a bargain.

If you're undecided, then don't get either one. DVDs work perfectly fine. You do not "have to" buy Blu-ray or HD DVD. Neither Blu-ray or HD DVD is required *unless* you want to play PS3 exclusive games, which are available on Blu-ray.

Currently, all movie titles that are available for either one are also available on DVDs... for cheaper. The prices of the players are still too expensive, and you know they will have to come down soon because the two formats are loc...

I notice that TaylorB lost a bubble after he had posted this message. TaylorB posted an intelligent, articulate message to point out the faulty logic of the article - but Sony fanboys can't accept reasons and take away his bubble. That's just pathetic.

I can understand why kspraydad is so afraid that people would expose Sony's FUD tactic.

This Sony fanboyism and Xbox 360-bashing idiocy have gone on for too long.

AGAIN, all signs point to Sony is using FUD on an epic scale against Microsoft.

Some video games that are based on anime or movies are good. (e.g., GoldenEye, The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay)

On the other hand, anime and movies based on games always suck.
