I want game journalism to die a slow, painful death. Seriously.

I think that is already happening.

He's really probably not wrong for the most part.

I know it's going to take me a good 7-8 quality exclusives or 2 really amazing ideas to convince myself to get the Move and I love new technology and new game genres more then about anybody out there.


I'm not going to pay extra money for HD ports.  If the only differences are HD and 10 dollars plus needing to buy 2 motion controllers minimium....

I'll stick to SD.  Heck, even if the only difference is HD and the 10 dollars part... after I bought a move i'd still go with the 10 bucks cheaper.

Been thinking about it and Reggie should have said this...

"Well, back in 2006 Pachter said the Wii would sell less than 20m in its lifetime and force Nintendo out of the console business all together. However, Wii sold 20m in its FIRST YEAR and more than four years later is still selling more than its competition every week in every region. Yeah, Pachter is someone we should listen to. Hell, Nintendo should buy Wedbush Morgan with the money it made on Wii in December so we can fire Pachter for never being right about anything. Jesus Fucking Christ man that was a stupid question. Even a fucking 2 year old could see its simply out of stock due to MASSIVE holiday sales. Now can you ask an intelligent original question or are you going to keep parroting the internet?"

Oh, wow.

That is win.

Very, very well said.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Sony should not be focussing on getting people to go from buying a Wii to PS3 + MOVE

They should focus on people wanting to buy a PS3 then Move..



Currently playing: MAG, Heavy Rain, Infamous

 

Getting Plat trophies for: Heavy Rain, Infamous, RE5,  Burnout and GOW collection once I get it.

As a Wii owner I wouldn't consider paying 400$ to have an imitation of my current console with just better graphics.

same here...plus nintendo has a knack for good software with their controllers

They can go drop an additional $400+ on a PS3 w/2 Moves (you need two get the what the Wii+Nunchuck does out of the box) so that they can play Sony Sports Resort and Move Party rather than Wii Sports Resort and Imagine Baby Partyz... because they are radically different

I can see the ultra hardcore who must own everything doing this but I can't see the typical Wii owner making that transition.

So they WOULD GET PS MOVE. So Sonys tactics works!!!!!!

Am I the only one that thought his whole 'Nintendo innovates and our competitors don't' thing kinda arrogant? I can name more innovations that have come with the 360 and PS3 than I can for the Wii in term's of both hardware and software. Wii may have had a big impact but Nintendo are starting to turn lame like back in the SNES day's.

Also, did Sony ever say that their target audience was Wii owner's? It's as if the PS3 isn't selling well world wide and doesnt have the console demand to attract new people to MOVE.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.
