and anticipated a sequel about as much as looking forward to
Haze II : The Elvis Chronicles.

Though I'd consider canceling it an improvement...all the Too Human fans will be very disappointed.

It was supposed to be a Trilogy, so this is really bad news for the fans.

I hope the economic cutbacks don't affect too many other games.

Even if it's a game I didn't like, dropping parts 2 & 3 of a Trilogy is damn frustrating for the gamers...

Check out Pennywise's comments above...Then check out SonyStyle.com

I purchased one for just $250 over their $150-Off holiday promotion.

Just too good of a deal to pass up.

My only concern was having a wireless connection and even on another floor, pretty much as far away as you could put it without being outside...the WiFi registered 90-100% with little online or gameplay difference compared to the other 60/500 Gig PS3 with a wired connection.

I'm not sure why more people don't seem to take advantage of this...
I mentioned it to any friends or family looking for a PS3 over the holidays when it was even cheaper...Just $250.00...and everyone who signed up got the deal.

Two friends who where concerned they would not be approved for it, where...regardless of their credit. (I purchased an extra one at $150 off over the holidays)

Even at the current $100 off...very few couldn't afford a payment of $15 espe...

...not only are all consoles doing relatively well (The Wii, VERY well) but just as TheBudgetGamer says it is this very competition that's good for gamers everywhere.

Live gave us a better PSN

$199 360's give us a cheaper PS3

MGS4/Killzone2 gives everyone better games

This competition is giving us all cheaper game systems and better games to play on them.

Why complain about that?

That much is clear...
but for you I somehow struck a nerve when I brought up journalism.

I'm referring, quite clearly to the ENTIRE state of gaming journalism.

I'm spinning nothing. I always deal in facts and I'm as impartial as ever.

But you're defending what...the right to say someone 1% off in the middle is in fact trailing? Any way you spin it...you're wrong.

...but ALL Playstation licensing revenue goes to Sony, so shouldn't the total include the PSP and any PS2 sales? (and combine DS/Wii sales for Nintendo)

This total profit value would change the figures by much more than 1%

For making my point.

The quote exactly is:
"Of the three home consoles, that is the largest percent, with Microsoft's XBox 360 trailing at 20% and the Wii at 15%."

My point is about Game "Journalist" who sensationalize everything, even the smallest detail, such as a 1% difference in sales.

Why isn't it "For Ubisoft PS3 & 360 Lead over Trailing Wii"

The Wii is trailing...

Why did the author...

Seriously...What is wrong with "game journalists"

"Trailing at 20%" uhh... did you check those numbers?
The Wii is the one trailing at 15% & the Xbox 360 & PS3 are practically tied.

What I would like to know is where is the other 44% of their profits coming from?

45nm chips, instead of 65nm ones.

These allow you to reduce everything from chip costs, related components, circuit board size, power supply required, even to a smaller extent the shipping weight of the console.

As the number of component and board size is reduced, so is everything concerning overall manufacturing & delivery costs.

There are also other revenue factors to consider with the PS3 beyond their gaming division. Sales, specifically Blu-Ray ...

A 3.2 GHz Cell chip, as of the 2007 65nm reduction was UNDER $60 per chip.
This has now been reduced to 45nm, bringing the price to about $40
http://www.xbitlabs.com/new...

Arguments aside, let's just average that to $50.

The LOW-END i7 is about $300. ($285-475 -- High end 2.93-GHz starts at $500)

Please compare on a reasonable cost basis...meaning you...

Holiday & current purchase promotions expire in early March & March 31.

The $150 off holiday promotion terms required you to purchase a PS3 by early March.

The current $100 off promotion requires you to purchase by March 31.

If a price cut where made in early March or before March 31 someone who signed up could purchase their PS3 for $150 or $200 for the current promotion!

As much as everyone would like a price cut, it makes no sense...

The i7 chip ALONE sells for more than the recent holiday $250 deal on an entire PS3. Considering this is comparing the performance of a current processor to one 4 years old, who's design started 8 years ago...the chip design team did their job well.

Shouldn't a fair comparison compare the i7 in a functional environment...with at least a mid-range motherboard, memory, drive, graphics card & of course a case & OS? (Several Linux OS choices add $0.00 to total cost)

I have recommended both consoles & even the Wii for those who like the gameplay.(I gave mine to my parents, who scoured stores for a WiiFit...they love the Wii, I didn't)

I have in the past more strongly suggested an extended warranty plan with the 360, but now...I really would WAIT.

WAIT till all the current models flush out of the market and ONLY get a 360 with the Jasper motherboard. (that's a polite way of saying, Microsoft is still selling models more prone ...
