" - @consolewar and voice of reason.
spin? you call that a fkn spin? did you even read.
let me break it down 4 u.
if 4 people have a ps3 and 2 people buy a game a month
and 8 people have a 360 and 4 people buy a game a month, that means they essentially have the same attach rate. are you guys that blind." This person obivously does not have a clue what they are talking about. You go to argue against our point but you only prove that we are right...
You really got the fanboys mad with that one. They cant stand to hear that Blu ray is holding the PS3 back. They dont want to see it though it is right in front of their faces. No game for PS3 is more than what can fit on a DVD. How is it MS manages to fit all those multi platform games onto 1 DVD while PS3 needs 5 gig installs just to have load times on par with 360? Blu ray might hold more info but it is also a lot slower than DVD when it comes to data transfer.So slow that they need instal...
yeah really nice spin. Notice that th PS3 outsold the 360 again this month yet software sales are nowhere near what they should be.However if you look into it you will find that Blu Ray movie sales are on the rise while PS3 software isnt. Thats more than enough proof that the PS3 is only being used as a movie player by the majority of owners. Anything said beyond that is just spin trying to make it not look as bad as it is. When Blu ray goes from 2% of sales to 9% of movie sales over all and ...
I just laugh at this desperate attempts by Sony fans to prove their PSP is better even though it has gimped controls, less software sales, less hardware sales. I dont own either because portables arent my thing but it doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure out which one is better. Obviously if the PSP was so much better sales would reflect that. They do not. Any excuses you make up for that are just that, excuses and have no real meaning. Even the guy who wrote the article is a fanboy. They...
harrisk954 You do understand that while Rumble is not a forced buy neither is Wifi or wireless controllers. You assumed every 360 owner needs wireless controllers or Wifi. All you need to enjoy an xbox 360 comes inside the box. Anything you want to add on to it is just that an Add on and is not required to enjoy the system. It is sad that you jump someone and then make the same mistake they did.
It is also coming out for the PC at some point. That should add a few more million in sales. I usually get my copies of GTA on the PC for all the added features you get that consoles just cant match. I dont see GTA on console getting the same level of mod support that the PC versions get.
Thats why they tone down the graphics. Same way Force unleashed,Ghostbusters, Madden, Etc end up on all 3.. I cant believe you actually think that people expect Ps3,360 levels graphic from the Wii. I dont see anyone claiming that but it is funny that Rockstar can put Bully out on the PS2,Wii and 360 without any issue yet some of you are so limited you think they couldnt do the same with GTA. Maybe the Wii will get a GTA4 spin off much like the PSP did. Who knows really but to assume they will...
I think the idiotic thing would be to assume they will not support the number 1 console... Think what you want but obviously the rest of tho world does not agree with you or they wouldnt be buying a Wii.
Rockstar is supporting the Wii but GTA4 has been in the works for a few years. Didnt really expect them to start work on it halfway and release a crappy game. Maybe GTA 5 will be on the Wii, until then we have Manhunt 2 and Bully.
PS3 is just a movie player with a couple of games to play. real gamers are on the PC . Why is it that PS3 sees a spike on console sales but the only thing to also see a spike in sales is Blu Ray movies? Obviously because the PS3 isnt being bought by gamers. It is being bought by movie watchers. I'll take a Wii dedicated to gaming over a Sony console dedicated to pushing a movie format through anyday.
What ever made you think people wanted high end graphics over gameplay? Last gen the PS2 was the weakest console and everyone bought it. I dont see it hurting the industry as much as you claim except thanks to Sony last gen Nintendo knew what to do this gen. I find it funny that so many Sony owners talk about how much graphics matter but last gen they owned te weakest console as far as graphics go and it didnt bother them one bit. However when it's Nintendo with the weaker console suddenly gr...
I agree with you and the 12 year old Dora has no clue what they are saying. PS3 is not on the same track as PS2 and this is just more proof of it. Yet like any child they argue the truth with their bias opinion.
Kinda like how Sony said we need Blu Ray? Or Rumble isnt need its last gen, oh but wait you need rumble now Sony says. We need a 600.00 console and we will work extra hours to own one. Funny how you cant stand Nintendo for doing the exact same things that Sony is doing. BTW it was an April fools joke.
I totally agree. Whats next? Starting it on Jan 1st then telling everyone on April 2nd "haha we got you good this time you fell for a joke based on a day in April all the way back in January."
I really dont see how their history of being a company like any other made this any more of a reason to be mad. If it was any other company besides Nintendo then most would accept them protecting their rights. However some people just want to hate them. The reasons never really matter
"Neither of them broke the 1 million sales mark in the united states, and both averaged in the high B range"
I dont know where you get your info from but AC sold almost 2 million in the US alone. The biggest area for it in sales.
What some of you are forgetting is that it was in Jan when Blu ray was declared the winner of the next gen format war. These spikes in sales are due to the PS3 selling as a stand alone Blu ray player to many and nothing more. Also it is funny to see how many are happy about beating the 360 for a few months but the PS3 cant touch the Wii and of course those sales dont matter. Not until the PS3 outsells the Wii anyway, then it will be the biggest event of your year.
That may be true for you but there are millions of people just waiting to buy that game when it comes out who consider it a must have title.
OoOLeafsOoO, That has already been done. In fact they've been doing it for years. Animal Crossing, Pikman, both meet your demands for something that is good but doesnt contain Mario,Zelda, or Samus. Also I see nothing wrong with this person opinion on games they want on Wii. It is not a complete list of all 3rd party games just the ones the article writer was interested in.
Last time I checked a 2 gig SD card could hold plenty of DLC. It is funny how some companies can use SD cards for DLC but some how these guys cant figure it out.
