dont waste your time talking about the financial state of any console and/or the company that makes them. No matter what stat, sales figure, or any other piece of info you give to prove your point it does not matter. Sony could shut down the PS3 tomorrow and it would not matter to the hardcore fanboy, they will instead say that sony is biased against the ps3. Same holds true for my fellow 360 owners. In fact the most interesting thing I see is that constructive and interesting conversatio...
i tried doing this for a while. trying to have some sort of conversation. no source is a credible source. no stat is the real stat. facts are called opinions and opinions are describe as fact. there are hundreds of forum pages describing vgchartz and the npd as unreliable. Forums describing why n4g is useless. no points can be made without some jackass talking smack. I'm done. It's better to just play the games, so that what I'm gonna go do. I am a Xbox Fanboy and I'm tired of it. So...
please show me a couple links to where that is proven. If my sources are faulty I would like to see proof, and then i will stop using them as sources. so if you or anyone else can leave a comment here that shows that VGchartz.com is not a good source for tracking game sales and that it under reports ps3 sales I would be grateful.
MGS4 sold may have sold 4.3 by November (it came out june 08), but they did not sell that many during the month of november. there is no source onli...
i wish people who disagree with a comment would state why. Perhaps when you hit the agree/disagree button there could be a small space where a person could express why they agree or disagree. this way it wouldn't count against the comment limit.
just a thought
PS4 in 2016. In 2016 the PS4 will emerge with time travel capabilities and come back to 2009 and lower the price of the PS3.
The future is now.
i dont think the PS3 is failing, but that criteria in any other circumstance would be a failure.
ps3 is in third place right now. mgs4 has sold 3 million something since june 08. while gears of war 2 has sold 4 million something since nov 08. the ps3 might come out of third at some point (after a much needed price drop), but as for now ask anyone working at sony if their happy being in third right now. Killzone 2 will be great but it will not sell better than MGS4, that game ...
mgs4 - 3.8 million since june 08
Gears of war 2 - 4 million something since Nov 08
Killzone will not sell more than MGS4, since MGS4 game attracted a wider gaming audience than killzone will have.
the video game industry is not about selling consoles or games apparently,
mgs4, 3 million something since june 08. gears of war 2, 4 million something since nov 08.
what are ps3 owners waiting for a price drop on their games because the console was so expensive
fail
no game can change that only price drop will. killzone will be cool, but it will sell less than MGS4 which sold less than Gears of War 2, which equals third place for sony. I'm talking worldwide sales here, check vgchartz.com. i'm sure gamers dont care about this but sony shareholders sure do.
go to vgchartz.com
MGS4 sold 3 million something worldwide. MGS4 was the flagship exclusive for sony. It was still outsold by Gears of War 2. Killzone 2 will not sell more than MGS4, sorry Sony fans. Price cut may help, but at the end of the day the game will do nothing to pull the PS# out of third place this generation.
the review does not say its better than half life 2. it just mentions half life 2 as an example of a revolutionary FPS, it does not say killzone 2 is better. Killzone will still be a cool game, but it is no Half Life 2 in the story dept.
A beautiful game that will still sell less worldwide than MGS4 (3.81 million) which itself sold less than Gears of War 2 (4.39 million).
I guess thats what happens when your console is in third place.
stats from VGchartz.com
I can't wait to play Killzone 2. You know what would be great if there was a price cut that coincided with the release of the game. This game will be great for PS3 owners, it will do nothing for Sony when it comes to moving consoles. How ...
you dont always have to pay 60.00 for live. look around I found a card for live onine for 30.00. I know not free but still cheaper than 60.00. Shop around. 30.00 is less than 3.00 a month.
all i can say is that these conversations are futile, this constant commenting on a game and a console over every moment of its life deadens the soul. I hope we're all happy, gaming went from fun to this.
sega master system is better than xbox 360 and PS3 combined. Monopoly pwns Killzone 2. My grandmother playing bridge pwns gears of war 2. that is the final analysis, all comments that disagree are predetermined to be wrong as well as qualify as hate speech according to a unspecified UN charter.
your mom looks outdated
;-D
it's an add on or its not an add on
who cares
if you liked GTA IV (a game that sold millions in record time that nobody on N4G seems to like) then you either can't wait for this to come out or don't care (some 360 and some PS3 owners) or are a little jealous (the apparently 5 PS3 owners who liked the game) I dont know if the PC is getting the content on Games for Windows. Which person are you? I liked GTAIV and I have a 360 so I will buy and play the game and most...

go play some games instead of worrying about hats and facial hair
dread does have a point about the articles. Instead of boycotting all articles that add to the flamewar, let fanboys in the the comments section know they are not welcome. No matter what console you own lets have a united front here and drown out fanyboyism where ever we find it. We do this by appealing to the better natures of our co-commentators, support the positive and drown out the negative. I realize silencing speech is wrong and impracticable so just channel that fanboy energy we a...
