PS3 will beat XBox 360 in all regions by end of 2008.

 Dude, your credibility here won't be very good if you keep up with statements like this. You will hear words like troll and fanboy a lot...

Ps3 may not even catch up with Eropean 360 sales now with the price drop by the end of 2008. In NA, it won't catch up  till xbox decides to release their next system, if sony is still supporting the ps3 by then.

That Loyal fans will follow a company even if they Sh*t in their mouths.

Seriouly though, it's taught me there arent many actual gamers left.
People are happy to play mediocre games on a machine, stay loyal and miss out on games.
Hell I chopped and changed all my life. I followed the best games. I feel sorry for some.

Consoles Ive owned in this order

Nes
Snes
Mega Drive
PS1
N64
Dreamcast
PS2
Xbox
Gamecube
360
Wii

1. Third parties are stupid because they don't support my Wii enough
2. Sony is stupid because I'm a hardcore Nintendo fans who just loves to hate everything else
3. Microsoft makes shoddy products because I'm always willing to overlook lens problems or the inability to play online.
4. Casual gamers are bad when Nintendo gets them because they support games that doesn't deserve supporting
5. Lower sales of more expensive games is a good thing. because I hate it when big budget games actually make money
6. Only America matters because who likes the US?
7. The Press determines who is "hardcore." I will never forgive them for giving Mario and Sonic a low score
8. Revenue is more important than profit. because I can't understand the concept that without revenue, you can't get profit.
9. Userbase suddenly means little. because who cares if there are good games for my console, as long as the whole neighbourhood gets the same console as I do.


 fixed fir ya. ;)

HURK HURK, king of whale. Just jump on like a leech and don't have an original thought. Bottom-feeder.

1. No, third parties are stupid because they aren't supporting the market leader.
2. Sony is stupid because $600 is not the sort of price that drives momentum in a product
3. "Lens problems" and temporary online issues do not equal Microsoft's self-admitted high percentage error rate of 360's, effectively making most early consoles highly susceptible for error.
4. Nobody seemed to care last generation.
5. I was talking about the Sticker price.
6. This one is about how When the PS2 was King, all we'd hear about was Japanese this and Japanese that. Now suddenly it's not. Mainly because Japanese third parties don't support the market leader enough, and a sudden introverision of the American Games Press.
7. You just put words in my mouth. Which is ok, because you put other things in YOUR mouth.
8. Profit includes revenue, idiot. If you just have high revenue and LOSE MONEY, it's worse than having low revenue and high profit.
9. This is also linked to #1. Last generation the Gamecube and Xbox were denied most every game based on userbase and userbase alone. Suddenly, when things turn for the unexpected, the response is not to adapt, but to try and divide gamers into groups.

 Honestly, with predictions like this, you really wonder why people would asume you are a 360 fanboy who dislikes PS3?
