A big price cut too, they still did terrible.. They could have done way better, but this is just my opinion.. PS3 still good considering no price cuts :) , no new games or anything, could have done better, but with the effect of the 360's price cut I understand why the PS3 sales are lower then usual.

Im sorry, but microsoft really failed this time.

Proof that there isn't much Microsoft can do to impress PS3 fanboys dissatisfied with their purchase. They didn't do near as well as they should, but they didn't fail.

 

Dissatisfied with my purchase? Now, why would i be dissatisfied? I love my PS3, and all my PS3's games. lol, im damn sure i made the right console choice.

 

Anyone who seems to feel the need to downgrade another console leads me to believe that they are highly unsatisfied of their own purchase and needs to justify it in their mind, and the best way to do that is by public display. They obviously didn't fail.

You'll never please Playstation 3 owners with an Xbox 360 price cut. What'd you expect? 500,000 units sold this week?

 

 Why do you have to put us ps3 owners into this?

We honestly dont care if the 360 got a price cut, it has nothing to do with us.

WHy do you have to attack us for no reason?

 

Because Smashed seems to think that the 360 did terrible and his collection is PS2 and PS3 games.  Kinda makes you think.

Did you notice a Playstation 3 owner started the thread and attack the Xbox 360's price cut? That's what drew my response: Your really not going to get a whole lot of intelligent debating via one-liners from fanboys.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.

You know, I think this joke would have more meaning if Rol said it.

The PS3 feels offended by the 360's existence.

Pretty pathetic showing all things considered, it couldn't even break 200k worldwide, the PS3 was over 340k on the release of MGS4 alone.



As in go buy us some coffee.

I thought 360 would do over 100K this week in NA, after the price cut, so I was surprised by the 90K, but I think looking toward the holiday season, the cut will REALLY take effect, especially with GOW2 coming out...that game will psuh ALOT of consoles out the door for M$.

So the 360 outselling the ps3 in 2 of the 3 regions is a failure? is it opposite day? i must have missed the memo.

Yes I notice he is a ps3 owner, doesnt mean all ps3 owners are idiot fanboys that think 360 selling significantly better than it did before a price cut, is terrible.

Attack the 360? All i said was they could have done better for a price cut.. The thing's basically cheaper than the Wii now, it could have broke atleast 200k.

You mean the PS3's killer app? What is essentially what became the messiah of the PS3, and the CONSOLE WARS changing game? And a price cut in a single region should bring it above that number?


I see. I guess the 360 DID fail because it didn't sell as much.
