Can we please do away with the fugly case that can almost compete with the not-half-as-fugly PS3? It’s really making American products look stupid.

yea like consoles in the past never had price cuts

people say the dumbest thing out of their mouth

if anything microsoft should had been cut the prices of the consoles

i will say this though i had two 360’s one broke down got that fixed and sold it but the other one seems to be the lucky soldier so far

as of now though the ipo is getting on my nerves broke down on me twice hell in almost the same time span

SoniKalien… copy Sony? Did you read it well? “The price cuts follow a move to “help sell the remaining models of Sony’s PlayStation 3 60GB version”

MS is doing Sony a favor.. so kiss ass!

Yay I can get a 360 at a slightly lower price now just in time for Halo 3

(No I don’t have a 360 yet… or any of the other next gen consoles for that matter )

@ QuadrupelQ i never bashed the Wii. I never said it wasnt good. i know kids like games. the Wii is for kids and its cheap in price. there for its going to sell the most.

STFU and stop patronizing fanboys

you don’t call yourself a fanboy when your name clearly ANNOUNCES THAT to the world?

I go with what works for me. PS2 worked for me, now im looking to get a Wii since it innovates and not just improve on graphics and stuff. Where else can you get the best version of RE4? Plus im craving for zelda since I last played ocarina of time.

We’ll see if the Ps3 strikes back. What doesnt work for me is that its just too damn bulky and too expensive. I wanted a game console not a vhs player.

as for 360, the failure rate = no buy

Wii for kids? You do know that kids are the largest demographic these days right? So that is why it is selling like hot cakes WITHOUT any price drops. Just face it fanboys: inovation wins, not hype!!!

Free online on PS3! Why pay each year for something you can get for free!!!!

BTW look up killzone 2 – makes halo 3 look like a snes game.

@ Sam

I am not a fanboy i own a 360, Wii + PS3 and pretty much any console that you can think of that has been released in the past 15 years. I am a gamer thru and thru and I know my shit when it comes to gaming.

I have had to get my 360 repaired twice in 11 months. That speaks for itself. MS should stick to software imo, yet they make a poor job of that as well.

fanboy ^^^^^^

I’m wondering if 360 is ever going to get an F1 game or if it is going to stay with Sony and their overpriced piece of crap machine.

Like a price drop for the 360 is going to help it now.
GTA4 which they paid $50 million for exclusive content is delayed until Q2 2008 at the very least. Halo 3 & Bioshock sure look pretty good but as for the rest of the line-up im not convinced.

PS3’s lineup on the other hand looks immense!

Heavenly Sword
Lair
Little Big Planet
Home
Time Crisis 4
MGS4
Singstar
Uncharted Drakes Fortune
+ Loads of PSN releases Wipeout HD, High Velocity bowling etc etc

I feel that the GTA4 delay hurt MS way more than Sony. Especially as they were prob banking on GTA4 shifting units for Christmas.

Glad I bought a PS3 on release day, the game drought is coming to an end finally.

SONY FTW!!!!!!!!

I don’t understand.

That’s a half true. The American 80 GB models won’t have the special PS1/2-emulating chip.

That results in less compatibility with older games, but all major should work.

Your fucked, like we here in Europe have been from the beginning, we “don’t need such advanced stuff” here in Europe according to asshole Sony Corporation..

I heard when the last of the current version of the PS3 sells out, that the newer models won’t be backwards compatible… Anyone else heard anything on this?
