why are all these terrorists from countries that typically do not play video games. What is the install base of PS2 in Irak, or Iran, or Afghanistan.
If Video games lead to Violence then they should be playing the MOST video games.
Seriously if your think about it, maybe there needs to be a Jihad video game and at the end you get your 79 virgins or whatever. Just a thought...
you contribute the piece and then make the first comment about it being an incorrect statement? just asking although i do agree, in the wise works of LL Cool J ...don't call it a comeback... never been gone.
"dollars spent" instead of units sold. I think the comparison would be alot closer between Ps3 and Wii, and the 360. Because...
Wii 14,000,000 X $250 = $3,500,000,000
Ps3 7,000,000 X $475(avg.) = $3,325,000,000
360 13,000,000 X $375 (avg.) = $4,875,000 - 1,000,000,000 for Warranty = 3,875,000,000
We all know Nintendo is making money on the Wii, but Sony is losing say $200 (guess) X 7 Mil. = 1.4 Mil. loss and Microsoft $100...
is changing so fast these days, if the t.v's are cheap enough who cares.
Plasmas say they are good for what, 60,000 hours. At 4 hours a day thats like 41 years, or 20 years at 8 hours a day. So if the life span is half that of plasma, it will still last 10 - 20 years. at which point there will be new tech. out thats better anyway.
I live in Mexico where the minimum wage is approx. $5.00 USD per DAY and a PS3 costs approx. $740.00 USD so the amount of people here that can afford one is minimal. Also the Wii is over $400 USD and the 360 Elite is $550 USD. i think the price for the 360 is so similar because of NAFTA, its built is the USA so its included in the free trade agreement, no import tax.
people are so upset about the Ps3 not having backwards compatibility, if they have Ps2 games to play, chances are they have a ps2 as well. Why someone would have one without the other i dunno. Also with the price drops you can by both for cheaper than the 60 gig was on release, and get a bunch of blu-rays for free.
The Ps3 version got the "Knights of the Nine" included where the 360 did not.
the Ps3 will outsell it tremendously as the Ps2 does now. At that point Sony will be making money on them (Ps3) and MS will be losing billions again. Sounds like a great stratagy.
Sony should offer a Buy a Ps3 get a Ps2 half price that way people could get 2 gifts and sony would get 2 sales.
because they were being sued by the company that developed that technology. Sony Settled in the summer for like $90,000,000 or some figure around there.
Sony because the Japanese don't by Samsung. Since Smasung has completly pulled out of Japan.
Could be a little payback against Japan for that.
in order to have fun with the wii and "console" himself for not getting a Ps3/360
You would have to have the proper T.V. to get the benefit. But it is pretty significant.
left1 is previous and right1 is next.
a little important how well the machines sell right now because companies still have to decide what console to make games for in the future, or if a game will be ar remain an exclusive. The hight the install base the more chance a developer is willing to make on an exclusive.
I think this will only matter up to about 20 million units. After that the install base is healthy enough to support every "Decent" game. Until then we are at the mercy of the developers mak...
track who was in that area using ip's or something. I think this would be a great way to find potential pedo's. Find em, watch em and bust em when they take it to the real world.
Maybe to get on "home" it would be a requirement to have a credit card for verification. Then if they are found for doing something illegal, they can prosecute them.
Even the Wii could do these grafix, and the control system could be altered as well. Then again that might defeat the whole purpose of leaving it the same...
how many price drops have there been for HD-DVD? Kinda unrelated.
As far as i'm concerned there was only really 1 price drop, the new skus have new prices, the old skus got dropped prices.
kinda the same with the 360
i disagreed with you by accident, it was ment for mesh, gave you a bubble to make up for it :)
I thought the whole addition of mods was new, at least as far as consoles are concerned. So if this is just for the PC version i guess i can understand that.
