Because I want Gears 3 and Halo 4 before I sell it.
PlayStation still on top in Japan... and Xbox 360 still all but dead right there.
Nothing new under the sun, but I guess the xbot tards will try to spin it anyway...
Bu bu but 2 consoles sold are twice better than last year when MS sold only one :'((
I'm not sure I'll buy it, unless it's very cheap. After all, Halo 3 feels a bit old now, I prefer CoD 4 and Killzone 2.
Halo 4 would be a much better idea, but I heard Bungie and MS were not linked anymore ?
@Necro : Oh I see, so L4D is an arcade game for kids ?
It runs much better on my PC anyway, while it's quite difficult to play PS3 exclusives anywhere else than... on PS3.
Only on PS3... like the other exclusives actually. I wonder what 360-only owner are smoking.
I wonder what they're playing too by the way.
You look butthurt.
I own a 360, it's still crap and it's still collecting dust.
Put a /sarcasm at the end.
The US are nearly a third world country now.
The main video game market is Europe, where games sell for 100 US $.
The 360 does so much better... as a heater, a paperweight or a dust magnet than it does as a next gen console.
Great ! Can't wait ! Another great exclusive !
Yeah, I think they'll try that, since it's lost for the 360, but it won't work at all either, since their fan base won't accept they abandon them once again, like they did with Xbox 1.
Editors don't want a new console now either, considering they're still losing money this gen. T
hat's the reason why MS strategy is so stupid and hopeless : since they have nearly no 1st/2nd party developers, they have to rely on 3rd party support and so they can't launch their console...
Never say never. Bill Gates is gone, and MS is clearly heading south now. All their recent history is nothing but failure :
- Vista
- Yahoo
- Zune
- Xbox 1
- RROD on 360
- 360 dead in Japan
- people uses more and more Linux and Open Office
- google kills them on the net
One day they could choose to stop losing money in gaming you know. Look at all the great companies who disappeared... There are tons of them.
when you have nothing else, maybe it becomes ok to play a 5.5/10 game ?
Fantasy land in your head =/= Reality and facts
Crushed in worldwide sales == MS looses, and it was already like that in 2007.
@Jdoki: Definitely. MS says 'no we're casual and cheap', but I think it's a 2 edged swords.
If this console was so nice, why did they cut the price ? It just looks like the poor man's PS3 for hardcore gamers now with such price. Hardcore gamers don't care for price that much, they care for games and value, and PS3 gives them more in both categories nowadays.
On the other hands, they still won't appeal to the casuals either, since they're still associated with stupid ...
None of this answers any part of his comment...
Jason, no amount of spin from you will change the facts, you know.
360 is crushed worldwide in sales by the PS3, week after week.
Heck, your console sold only 3k in Japan last week, it seems even more dead than the Dreamcast now.
You can still like it though, and have it repaired for the 10th time if you want.
You're right and it's confirmed by sales worldwide where PS3 crushes 360, but lies are still really annoying, especially MS ones.
Fanboys wrote all those lying articles, not me. ;)
I'm pretty sure I made the right move FOR ME, yeah. Maybe if you're a hardcore FPS fan though, 360 is still an acceptable choice too, especially if you don't mind having your console repaired every 3 months.
Excuse me but no, I don't play with sales, I play with games.
Flop = bad quality, universal bad reviews.
Ah ah nice trolling but no... Main games I played this year :
- Uncharted
- Ratchet
- MGS 4
- Soul Calibur 4
- Resistance
- Gran Turismo 5 prologue
- GTA 4
- Devil May Cry 4
+ tons of great PSN titles (especially Siren)
All AAA games. ;)
And you, what did you play except the multiplatform games in 2008 ? Too Human ? (60 % in Metacritic ?) Maybe Ninja Gaiden 2 but that's all (and still, it was a mediocre gam...
Another stupid fanboy article. I would feel frustrated too if I had nothing to play as a 360-only user like them, so it's ok.
Every day another PS3 exclusive is announced, every day another 360 exclusive is coming to PS3 too (ninja gaiden 2 sigma), it must be depressing.
Still, pigs don't fly, earth is not flat, and IPs like Gran Turismo, God of War, or Metal Gear Solid are still by far the most popular in the world, with only Halo trying to compete on the other side...
