Microsoft did not fix the RROD, that is the biggest myth in the world, on youtube there are tons of videos of Elites getting RRODs, better yet I know 2 people that got 360's for christmas last year and both had the RROD by the time GTA4 came out, RROD will always be there due to the poor design of the 360.

 

 

Jasper says hello. He moved in in september and he's here to say. Sure there were x360 that would still RRoD if they're older models, but new ones shouldn't have the problem. Can they? Sure they can but you'd really have to in an oven for that to happen. 

Heres what MS did do though, they extended warranty on all xboxs to 3 years and put aside $1 billion to fix consoles bricked by RROD. You're a bit ignorant to say that MS hasn't have incentive in the past 3 years to fix the problem

it would still happen, even they improved the failure rate rrod is likely to happen, also its doens't only happen due overheating but also many other hardware problems.

you know 3 million people suing  m$ would be a bigger problem than 1 billion lost due faulty hardware.

 

 Yeah, I just printed out your post, took it to the bathroom and wiped my ass with it after I took a dump. I really can't think of any other way to reply to your post.

You're in denial. I hate myself for replying to you. Like I said, the RRoD can still happen but it's reliability rate is far improved over the previous models since OVERHEATING WAS FAR AND WIDE THE MAIN CAUSE OF RROD. But like I also said, you are in denial.

3 million ppl suing MS is worse then 1 billion lost? How do you figure that? Using the PS2 DRE class action lawsuit as a reference point, in which sony had to pay $25 to people who had proof of purchase, I figure $25 for 3 million (a # which im sure is pulled out of thin air) equals $75 million. Just for kicks and giggle, if MS would to pay the whole install base of x360 it still wouldn't equal $1 billion.

 




Around the Network

everyone stay on topic, lets end this RROD debate...



I won't count Sony out this gen yet because of the following reason:
Sony has sold an average of about 7.79 million PS3 consoles per year since launch
The 360 has sold an average of about 6.98 million consoles a year.
This is actually remarklably good numbers for Sony, because for all but around two weeks of it's life, it's had to condent with the Wii too, which of course is at an average of about 16.275 million consoles a year. The 360 had almost an entire year without current gen competition, and it can't keep up the same average as the PS3.



The 360 would need to have sold 2.43 million consoles more than it has do to just have the same average as Sony's PS3. to have the same average as the Wii, it would need to have sold a hell of a lot more, about 27.885 million more to be exact.

That is why I can't count Sony out.

count them out of first place? for sure.

but out of the race? no way.

The amount of hate for the ps3 on this site is astonishing, its like it murdered a relative of someone, and all you people want for it is to die.

 I don't hate my PS3.  Its the best $500 I ever spent for a Movie Entertainment System.  Heck I used it to play all the games I missed on the PS2 that I never got a chance to play(never own a PS2, just PS1, Gamecube & Xbox).

WIN!!!

So, fine, you want to say VGChartz is biased, cool.

Link me all these other sites who think the PS3 is gonna win this console generation, with a recent date on their articles.

It's taking some people a lot longer than others to move past the denial stage.

It's only human nature to hang on to hope.

However, wouldn't the PS3 barely slipping by the Wii be considered an empty victory?

Also, in Video Games(Not electronics, or television), Nintendo has a much healthier brand than Sony from a sales and popularity perspective. I hate to break that to ya.

I want people to put up or shut up.

If you're on here complaining that we don't give Sony a chance to win this generation, then you change it.

You predict right now that Sony will beat the Wii this gen, in userbase.

It's a simple prediction, you lose nothing by stating it. Go ahead. If you talk the talk, feel free to walk the walk.

DAMMIT ZEN!!!

There's no room for logic in a debate like this.

Anyone remember the Gamecube fanboys?

It was always, "just wait until resident evil 4, a GCN exclusive!!" or "price drop baby, mass market time!" or "4 times as powerful as the PS2!!" They were still hanging on as late as 2004.

Anyway, I think they must have all bought PS3's this gen.

 

jeez! if the ps3 is doing so bad then how fucked is the 360!! do i need to remind everyone how cheap it had to go just to get even sales with the ps3! you know sometimes you should actually think before posting.

 

Yeah something the PS3 can't afford i mean the PS3 dropped $200.00 less than 3 years, yeah you're right the 360 is the desperate one

sony were desperate as fuck last year, now microsoft are desperate this year because they know they are slowly fading and falling behind. either way, sony got out of their shit hole last year and are in a good position now, microsoft are in a shit hole now, lets see if they can get out of it. whatever happens, us consumers get all the action, so FUCK SONY, FUCK MICROSOFT and FUCK NINTENDO!! actually sony just give me god of war 3, microsoft make a console that doesnt break every 5 minutes and nintendo stop waving around that stupid remote and give us some real fuckin games! and another zelda!

 


Woe. Way to much crap flying around from new posters. This site clearly has less 360 fans. Anybody with lots of posts thats been here a year or more will tell you. Anyways If M$ are in SH*t as you say then the fact that M$ are doing well in Japan is nothing. They sold nearly 15,000 again this week and could have done more if it didnt sell out in the majority of shops in Japan again. I believe they are now well and truly out of the so called hole, as I think they will outsell PS3 this christmas. Theres no need to swear either. It should all be about the games regardless of the system you own.

Hey... you just forgot Bill Gates :o

 

Because  nintendo>>>>>>> Bill Gates=god>>>>> Sony ;)



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

its stupid to call anyone out especially someone that can count on a competently on non gaming item to move their machine


i mean as long as there is BLu Sony is fine

where as Microsoft really only has games so they are in a greater risk of danger IMO---i would say wii but they have figured out how to fish the blue ocean and that's any bodies guess what swims in there



 

Sony won't be able to beat ninty but it still has the best console(ps3) and best games, but it will definitely beat the stuffing out of M$
