Irony is, I was not trolling. Believe me when I say I would not mind owning a PS3, but the "great linup" that the OP cited, along with the fact the the PS3 is overpriced, and all the games that I would want to play (save a few) are multiplat. I'm not bashing the PS3, just the OP. |
How is the ps3 overpriced? The fact its one of the best blu-ray players on the market already makes it worth $299

If I need a blueray player, I will go pick up a dedicated one for $130.00 The PS3 is not top of the line anymore, it's outdated. Also, BR isn't everything. Until Sony runs a price drop, I will not be buying a PS3...unless somebody has a used one in good condition.
You cant buy a dedicated Blu-ray player anywhere for $130, cheapest nowadays is $249.
PS3 is top of the line, the only models that are any better are those priced at $399 and above, also if you like HD, BLURAY is a great UPGRADE from DVD.
Calling the PS3 an"Over priced machine" just shows how ignorant you are, and try to hide the fact it offers more value than any console on the market for its price especially.

Someone can confirm this for me. I believe Harvard Business School teaches that if an President/CEO of a company allows his company to fall behind to LAST place in marketshare with their product offering, to supposedly make their competition feel cocky (to catch them off guard), they will be the target of being canned by the company's board. Also, you need to seriously stop with this presumptiveness that now everything will suddenly turn around. On the software front GT5 is the big item. The other two only matter to hardcore Playstation fans who already own Playstation consoles. |
You need to stop taking guys like the OP so seriously. This thread reeks of sarcasm. :P
LOL @ 360 fanboys!!! so butthurt from a mere JOKE....can't blame em really.

You live in the US. The ps3 is now $299, the same price as the current Pro 360, and soon to be Elite 360. It comes with a comparable games line up and three features the 360 doesn't have - a Blu-ray player, built in wi-fi, and free online play.
Chances are you paid $299 or more for your 360, unless you went with the Arcade. If you did go with the Arcade, that'd add one more item to the list of things the ps3 has that the 360 (rather, your 360) doesn't. How is the ps3 overpriced but the 360 not in your little scenario?

Dude, I don't have a HiDef TV anymore. And even if I did, I have no Blueray discs...nor will I buy any till they come down in price...so the blueray player is just meh to me right now. Built in WiFi? I'm not an idiot, I will NEVER play over Wifi...so once again, unecesary. The free online play doesn't have any of my friends (none of them have a PS3) Netflix, crossgame chatting, nor will it have the Facebook, Twitter(I don't care so much about that one), or Last.FM apps (Not the shoddy PSN browser versions but actual apps made specifically for them). So, basically, what I am trying to say is, even spending the $38.99 for 13 months of live, it's a better value for ME. And the other "extras" on the PS3 are not something I would kill to have. Also, the game lineup, only a few exclusives get me excited, and even MOST of these can be one upped by the 360 exclusives.
Also, What makes you think I would buy a pro? I would buy the Arcade version, then buy a used 20GB HD for less that $20 bucks, Buy new 360 controlers for 25 bucks, and a HDMI cable (once I got my HD TV) for $5.00
So, My price tag (if I were buying everything again) would be
$199.00 Arcade
$25 x 4 for controllers
$20.00 for a 20GB HD (Another $60 and a simple hack if Iwanted to upgrade to a 120GB HD)
and $5.00 for an HDMI cable (assuming I now have a HD TV)
My total (without the 120GB HD) = $324.00
Plus the entire Halo series (yes I am a Halo slut), Gears of War series, and Mass Effect series...sorry, but right now, the 360 holds a better value for me.
Disclaimer: I know this is not the case with everybody since some people don't like or need the things that the 360 offers, but reading what I posted there, I'm sure you can see why I think the PS3 is overpriced.

Loosing tons of cash was also part of the bluff ?
Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

No, just a side effect.
