Nothing, other than delivering huge improvements in online play, achievements, social play, great graphics, some innovative 1st/2nd party games (some with huge sales, others with just new ideas), and being the first to market with an internet video store for your TV, then adding Netflix 2 years later - all at an ever decreasing price point. Come on, I agree what the MS rep wrote is arrogant - but how you interpret this as "have no interest in doing something for the game community" - no idea. All along Wii's differentiator was motion controls, Xbox's was the best online, and Sony's was BluRay - but BluRay is becoming less relevant both because the players have gotten to less than half the price of a PS3 and because it's not growing at the rate Sony hoped - while the Xbox is adding more casual features and more in the internet video space. Nintendo's still firmly the only console with great motion controls (PS3 tried a little here, even Xbox tried a little with Lips, but really - it's nothing next to Wii). And of course Nintendo has the big buzz. PS3 was living on last gen's accomplishments - something that becomes less and less relevant as we move further into this gen. Yes, PS3 will improve if they drop their price - but IMO even matching the Xbox price (for equivalent hardware - say 60GB or 80GB PS3 for $300) I still think they will be beat by some (smaller) margin by the 360. |
K im an xbox Fan but i cannot see it equaling the PS3's sales if they were the same price. I dont think they would be very far off but i think the PS3 would win most months. Even though Blu-ray isnt taking off i doubt people wouldnt want it if it was cheap enough. I mean its pretty much same game selection with free blu-ray i mean i would have bought a PS3 first if this was the case
Long Live SHIO!
