This is not trolling or flame bait guys. if you check my post history I am very pro-PS3.

I watched the NFL Season Opener tonight. It's a huge event that more than likely had the most viewers of any sporting event in America for a long time.

I saw 3 seperate xbox360 ads in the first 20 minutes of the pre-game show. NFL Madden Commercials with "Xbox360 Elite now $100 off" and the 360 logo at the end of every commercial.

another 2-3 xbox360 ads for the remainder of the game. (Need for Speed, Rockband Beatles)

There was only 1 PS3 commercial during the entire game and it was during the middle of the first quarter. It's a great commercial but there's no wonder why PS3 still has the stigma of having no games amongst casuals.

PS3 IZ DOOMED!

Yet it outsold every console last week.

...but they still can't market their product

Yupp. Bluray was doomed when HD DVD had the superbowl commercial 2 years ago too.

I saw a PS3 "It only does everything" commercial today, does that not count as marketing?

lol, I can tell you've been waiting so long to say that. Enjoy it while it lasts.

True story, but it won't be the last time I'll be saying that line this holiday season.

And I was also making a point, if they can't market a product, how did 550,000 people find out about the PS3 slim?

No the OP is correct....... the 360 normally overpowers the PS3 in america, there is no doubt at all that we should see more marketing in the US. I would expect the situation reversed in japan for example where the PS3 dominates the 360.

All the same, I think that the 360 price cut will hamper MS financially, basically making them put a large part of their money towards that price cut. Sony also had a $100 cut but at least they cut a significant part of that figure out with the cheaper to make PS3-slim.

So, we may see sony catching up to some degree for things like advertising as they won't be hurting for money as much as the MS guys.

if I remember correctly, Didn't HD-DVD have a 1 minute long commericial running during the biggest NFL game?? The Superbowl?


OMGZ!!!! Blu-RAY is dooooooom!!!!!
