See ya on March 31, Dave. MGS4 ain't gonna make it folks. And PEOPLE NOT BUYING is the reason why the PS3 is doing lacklusterly not the internet. The internet just reflects THE PEOPLE'S sentiments. Price higher in South Africa? Whew hahaha man oh man they just don't know. John Lucas

 Yeah, its the same thing around here (Puerto Rico). However, some of those same gamestores also dissuade customers from the Wii, saying that "Wiimotes can fly into your TV". I guess it has to do alot with the person working there. But it is true, the word of mouth for each console has spread beyond cyberspace.

Side note- At one store I was at, the guy selling a Wii told the lady she should ensure it (For like 100) because his Xbox360 breaks down often. I walked up to the lady and told her that the only reason that happens is because the 360 is not reliable, with like a 10-20% failure rate. The employee kicked me out of the store. LoL.

 And, as for Karracker: Of course he is trying to sell the PS3, that is his job. I also hate that picture of him in the article. All I could imagine while he was spitting out that PR crap was his smiling face. 

While the PS3 is generally last in UK, but it is selling on par with the Wii and the 360 in Germany and France.

Yey... False statement right there!... If you look at the numbers for France and Germany... You'd see that PS3 isn't selling as bad in the US but still about half of what Wii does and about 2/3 of what X360 does. So you're lying right there!

Just a comment on Konami's results...

Even though they sold 8m (!!) copies of Pro Evolution Football last year, their gaming division results were down. Profits were also down.

Ironically, what boosted their profits was a subsidy created by the Japan government to promote health fitness/gyms clubs.

At this rate (along with Sony), Konami might as well exit the games industry... ;) They will actually make MORE money if they do.

Sony's PR is really good at what they do. I mean they can easily take a poor situation and turn it into the greenest pastures with flowing milk and honey that i have ever seen. Larry and outlawauron -- you gotta be doing that to be funny right? I mean seriously.
