Toshiba is run by morons, all the money they will waste or their pointless format. Do those idiots really think they can beat out the Playstation ?

Let me think.... Nintendo is beating the PS... MS is beating the PS... Yeah, I think Toshiba could beat the PS... :)

as ridiculous as yours. anyways, low price is one of michael cooper's strategies. so it's valid. ps2 costing 299, then 199, and now 129 definitely helped the ps2. ps3 with 499 and 599, then discontinued the 499, then dropped the 599 to 499, then now introduced 80gig 599 and 499 only valid until 60gb runs out. um...so where's the price drop. adding stuff in and keeping the price the same is not a low cost strategy. they are adding attributes, not lowering price. that's the difference between ps2 and ps3. that's why ps2 is as successful as it is now while ps3 is lagging behind the wii.


80Gb is a game bundle, is that so hard to see.  Is it so hard to understand that that means ?

 Yahh the PS2 success had nothing to do with launching year before the competition.


exactly. bundle = adding in stuff people may or may not want. (and charging for it).

I can see why some studios go hddvd, the format war brings hardware costs down fast.

But its the hardware makers that get screwd on all of this, all because of toshibas stupidity.

That's your opinion. Then can I say sony is run by idiots who completely ruined the PS3 by combining it with bluray when most gamers don't care for it, and charging a ridiculous amount for it? because of sony's stupidity, ps2 supporters are screwed with the high pricing of ps3.


The only ridiculous thing here is your post.

Everyone whine about PS2 price just like with the PS3, they cried and whined dvd make the console to expensive how games did not need that much space cd was enough and crap like that.

Toshibas buggets supported MS wants then to fail, they only are in th ehddvd camp to figth Sony. Their intention is for both to lose. Thats how dumb toshiba is they allied them selfs with people that want them to fail.


 I'd just like to point out... I never heard a single person whine about the DVD drive in the PS2 except when the drives mysteriously died and Sony refused to acknowledge it was their fault till a bit later on.

 Sorry but that sound really to much like a fanboy.

I can believe it win but I also can believe Wii will win this generation.

For me it can goes every side.

i can't believe how a person can be so in love with a fricken electronic device. HUS its just a PS3. It is nothing that should take up your whole life.

the PS3 did not need bluray. It is sonys greedy way of trying to win the next format war. Even Ken didn't want it that much. Then when the ps3 practically flopped to what sony expected he got axed. Why should he when he was forced to add it in.

Consumers love inferior technology Diomedes. Look at VHS, the PS2, the iPod, Dell, Windows, and the DS.

...wow I think I just pissed off every fanboy in existence with one sentence.

 


I declare eab the uncontested winner of this thread.

Sony is smart but most of you guys dont realise it. They dont care about the gaming business compaired to the Movie buisness. Movies and DVD's are where they get a lot of there money from. So they added blu-ray into there PS3 not just for games but so that blu-ray will kill HD and Toshiba (SP) will have to pull out and if anyone wants a hi def DVD platform they need to buy a Blu-ray player. The only major competitor they have is DVD and things like Direct TV.
