seriously I dont even consider xbox360 to be in this generation race I believe it is only between wii and ps3 but lets face it lol there is no way the ps3 could win. the xbox360 is basically a overpriced wii minus motion control and I was reading that it can play hd-dvd but hd-dvd lost the war so why dont they remove it on new console maybe save some $$$?

I forget how xbox did last generation but didnt they only sell like 10 million console? gamecube sold like 5x that.

WTF???? What the hell are you on??? I want some!!! That is the most ignorant post ive ever seen LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!



Long Live SHIO!

PS3 - > Promises everything, delivers less than competition -> Epic Fail

X360 -> Promises what it should -> delivers what it should -> Epic win

 

Playstation 3

2009 Metacritic:

MLB The Show 09 90%

Killzone 2 92%

Flower 88%

Demons Souls ??? (but according to early reviews and previews it should be in the mid 80s range)

 

next 85%+ exclusives should be infamous in may

Xbox 360

2009 Metacritic:

Halo Wars 82%

Ninja Blade 67%

Star Ocean 4: 79%

Race Pro 75%

Next 85% exclusives should be Halo:ODST or Splinet Cell: conviction in Q3-4

"Underpromise and overdeliver"

LOL

A baseball game, a pretty looking generic shooter, a screen saver, and Japanese Oblivion. With games like that you have wonder why the PS3 is not flying off store shelves.

It's because...

1. You don't consider 360 to be a part of this generation, which is just...laughable

2. You think the 360 is an overpriced Wii without motion controls, when all the people with eyesight realize 360 and PS3 are pretty close specs wise

3. You think the 360 plays HD-DVDs which it doesn't, and that makes your suggestion of removing the HD-DVD drive especially hilarious

4. You thought the Xbox sold 10 million

5. You thought the Gamecube sold 50 million

The best part was, there wasn't a single sentence in your post that didn't contain some form of lie or completely wrong observation.

1. i said it terms of competition

2. does it cost more than a wii? yes. does it not have motion controls? yes. your point? seriously can you read..

3. the hd-dvd drive WAS available for xbox360 many people did not know that but it existed. like i said if microsoft removed such drive from selling they would not have lost money

3. my mistake? wasnt far off from 20 million

5. 5 more of 25 million is gamecube which is correct

 

everything I said was correct it just shows nintendo fans like me are right but other fanboys do not read an djust jump in

that's not even the issue.  Your whole idea of the 360 is just one giant misconception.  Ok, I guess I will take your post apart so that you can learn and not repeat

1st xbox sold 25 million and gamecube sold 20 million, so xbox actually sold 5 million more

2nd xbox 360 does not play hd-dvd's.  They sold an attachment when it first came out but they discontinued it before hd-dvd even went under.  So there isn't anything to take out.

3rd how can xbox 360 not be part of this generation race and ps3 can?  They have sold over 8 million more consoles than ps3 and consistently out sells them every month. 

4th xbox360 is actually cheaper than the wii (or can be at least) so how is it an overpriced wii and also how are they in way similar? 

Those are the reason's why everybody is being mean to you.  Basically everything you wrote in that post is wrong.  However, on the plus side, it did give me a good laugh, so thanks for that :)

Wow. This may be the first time somebody has misunderstood themselves. Either that or the hamster stopped running inside the wheel.

You must be a joke account sir. Don't worry. I'll find out.

Xbox 360 has been more successful then Playstation 3 in the last 2 years, Xbox 360 was dominating Playstation 3 in both hardware & software sales but 2009 has been dry for Xbox.

According to a series of recent reports by the research group DFC Intelligence, the game industry is poised to see enormous overall growth in 2009,DFC estimates that the videogame market will swell to $47 Billion by 2009, a 42 percent increase over the $33 billion generated by the industry in 2006. That forecast includes revenue from videogame hardware and software.

As we all know that Playstation 3’s this year exclusive line-up is great and is already helping Sony get some decent sales, But Microsoft seems to be doing nothing in order to get their share from that $47 Billion there is no exclusive that is sure to make a splash this year.

I think Microsoft is already too late even if they announce some exclusives or yet another batch of (Paid For Exclusive DLC’s) they won’t be able to release them this year, I would suggest that we should sit back and relax this year and hope that next year won’t be the same as this.

I am sure Microsoft have some aces up their sleeves but shouldn’t they be rolled out by now.

You say this as if you know how the future is going to pan out. So far, the PS3 is down YoY and hasn't expanded there sales. I am going to say that further down the road they will begin to sell better, but your statement at this point is incorrect.

 



Just kiss the tip.
