@ Squilliam,

Each month, the PS3 sales are down from year over year, with the latest showing a 46% drop (as of 6/20/09). How can you honestly say you think the PS3 is winning?

Why are you so mean to me? Don't you see that the week in June 2008 you're comparing it to was a week where the sales had a massive spike? Thats like cherry picking the worst example.



Tease.

Judging by the sales, it seems that the xbox 360 has been outselling the playstation 3 since the price cut and has an overall sale of 30 million units vs 22 million units of playstation 3 sales.

I hear people say that sales shows the xbox 360 is the more desired console to buy than the playstation 3 and I also hear that the playstation 3 is the more desired console because of the exclusives. After hearing both sides, I don't know which side to believe.

So is the xbox 360 really a more desired console to buy than the playstation 3 simply because it has more sales?

Not fair at all! $700 Xbox 360 vs $399 PS3

^ Before the PS3 cut the price, it was losing to the 360, and after it cut the price, it started winning.....is 360 fanboyism?



Are all of your posts written by a Vista robot Squilliam ? It must be the tenth post I see from you where you take another one's post and change the words. Is it so hard to try to find your own words or was he just true ? I think I know the answer.

I think I'll put this in my sig since it's so true and it fits vg windows fanboys so well :

"When you have nothing left to answer back, either try a joke post or a personal attack."

You're clearly on the 'joke post' side of this sentence.

On a side note, why do you hate Sony so much ?

Did Kratos really burn your house ?

I feel that this post is reaching out to me, so I will lower my protective forcefield of jokes and be frank with you. Every day its hard being a PS3 fan on this site. Im constantly bombarded by messages from Kantor and Darth about how games like Too Human and Blue Dragon are going to pwn the PS3. I try to message a mod like Makingmusic476 or Torillian, but they are too busy playing with Howler monkeys to help me out.

Seriously, I don't hate the PS3. I just find the fanboys on the site for that particular console to be the easiest sport for poking fun at. Its all because they are so predictable, you can address a whole bunch of them with a single comment or thread without harming the humble fans too much. Honestly its too perfect to not tease them! Such would be a shame to have an untapped source of lulz.

I could anwered his post seriously, but why bother? Its the same comments time and again made by the same people. There was no better way to answer and the symetry is perfect.



Tease.

Ok, Squilliam, but when I check your posts history, all I see is you bashing PS3 and defending MS, so what is the difference between you and the people you criticize ? Or maybe I didn't read the good threads ?

I find people like you (MS fanboys) equally as fun and predictable as any other fanboy (Wii fanboys included). Your symetry posts were predictable after all, I definitely predicted them in my head. ;)

Saying that one category of fanboys is 'funnier' than the opposite fanboys is just admitting you are yourself a fanboy, in my opinion. Non fanboys consider all fanboys are equally annoying... There's no difference for them.

Anyway, thank you for answering.

(No other special reason why you hate Sony and / or love MS ? One thing I see is maybe it's the 'cool' thing to do nowadays, at least if you're young ?)

No....it's just that when Tony_Parker brought up how the 360 was winning before the PS3 price cut, then losing after the PS3 price cut, nightsurge said "Spoken like a true PS3 fanboy", even though the previous statement was undeniable fact



All im going to say is that the day the Ps3 costs $299 or $349.......I will be planning to buy the xbox 720 and Wii2 anyway.

I always had a desire to get a Ps3...but for that price?..Naw im good. I am NOT here to buy something that almost costs a new computer.

"PC all the way, over console, anyday." =) THATS my quote DONT U DARE TAKE IT!!! JK



PS3 have never been cheaper than the 360
though it always offered more than 360 way more.



Its amazing how a $700 Xbox 360 outsells a $399 PS3,

Ugh..... did you read carefully?

I said, "Spoken like a true fanboy!  Only one explanation fellas!"

This was in reference to his statement that price is the only difference and determining factor for deciding value.  Not in regards to the rest of his post.

Guess I should have underlined that part
