| Squilliam said: Ironic thing is that Haze Killzone and Resistance 2 are also the exact SAME type of shooter. They are all SCI FI a further sub category. They then have to go up against and be compared to CODIV if they want any hope of success. Xbox side - Bioshock - Halo - Gears are in completely differenct categories. One isn't even an FPS, its a TPS. |
I know a girl who coaches the debate team at a high school. Two big things she teaches them are that if you call your opponent a name or say the word "technically", you have already lost the debate. I kind of think that's the case sometimes with the 360 and people constantly bringing up the RRoD. We all know that the RRoD has been a problem. Falcon models seem to have greatly reduced its frequency, and further revisions surely will. It seems that when PS3 fanboys feel backed into a corner or get all butthurt about something, they bring up the RRoD, which didn't really seem to hurt the 360's sales. Love MS or hate them, there's one thing they've been right about all along: Software sells systems. If you don't have the software, your system won't sell. PS3 hasn't had the software. 360 has. The numbers reflect that. The impact of BluRay has been WAY overestimated by some because all media (movies, music, TV, etc.) is making a big shift toward digital distribution. We are not far from a world free of physical media to hold our data, and when movies finally catch up, it won't matter what kind of player you have. I think people already realize that. For example, I can get my HD movies from my OnDemand service. I haven't rented a movie from Blockbuster in literally years, and I'm not big on obtaining a huge movie collection, so what do I care about having a disc? As long as the movie is in HD and I can view it without having to go into the store or send for it through Netflix, I will watch it. It seems that many share my point of view, which is why BluRay isn't the smash hit it was thought to be. The HD format wars were very overhyped.
EDIT: Sorry, I quoted the wrong post. But you know what I meant.
