Big PS3 rumors, as in 360 killers

First on some killer firmware and cross game chat??

http://www.thesixthaxis.com/2009/02/19/firmware-27/

Before you all say, oh it's fake, well this has happened before with the 2.00 firmware where it was accidentaly leaked and no one believed it. And a possible PS3 price cut mid year?

http://www.totalvideogames.com/PlayStation-3/news/Smaller-Cell-Chip-To-Lead-To-PS3-Price-Drop-13678.html

If all is true could this be the revolution the PS3 has needed to catch up to the 360?

What are you're thoughts?

in counter news.....MS is to announce 2 new 09 exclusives by the end of Q1.

your move.

"In the short-term however, Reeves remains adamant that a price cut for PlayStation 3 won't be coming anytime soon"

yeah... so probably a $50 drop for christmas time....

The 360 will definately die when the PS3's price cut and firmware 2.70 arrive. Yes, this is a 360 killer indeed.Floppy_Jim

Floppy Cow FTW:P

How do you kill something that's already dead? :?

The 360 does not need the PS3 help to die. It dies just fine on it own. :P

Why does it seem everything something comes along on a system it is hailed as a 'PS3/360/Wii/PC/Toaster/Wombat Killer? Sure hyping something is good but it would not kill the rival system.

You think that all by yourself?. . . I lol at you :D

[QUOTE="porky_ownsu"][QUOTE="hoosier7"] Who's going to say "yeh you could buy a PS3 now or why don't wait a couple of months when we are going to drop the price" if you where being interviewed you'd have just wrecked PS3 sales for the next six months. I lol at you lack of intelligence.

[QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"][QUOTE="yoyo462001"]cows get together and decide what is the 360 killer because its confusing me now, Mgs4 lbp k2 firmware :s its like it changes every week.hoosier7

Oh boy! So the PS3 will now be able to do things that Xbox has been doing since it started XBL years ago. Well I guess I'll just toss my Xbox Elite out in the snow now since it is an outdated artifact.

Ok a firmware kills a console! Really.granddogg

So basically the PS3 is going to kill the 360 with features and a price cut that the 360 has has for quite sometime now? Doen't anyone remeber the big 2.50(?) update that was supposed to turn the tide? Yeah, that turned out AWESOME.

Don't you guys ever get tired of this idiocy? IT'S TOO LATE.

The PS3 is an excellent piece of hardware with some great games, but it's over for this gen. Nothing the PS3 will do except actually turning into a 360 is going to change that. The 360 has to stop selling hardware completely worldwide or the PS3 has to start selling at the rate of the Wii to make up any difference anytime soon. That ain't going to happen.

By the time the PS3 catches up with the 360, even with the extended hardware cycle many believe will occur this gen, price drops will matter little as MS can most likely match any price drop Sony makes.

It's time for people to just accept that Sony will be in 3rd place this gen. It isn't going to kill Sony off and hopefully next gen they will have learned their lesson.

-.- really.... i wasnt insulting you or the PS3, i was merely stating that he said "it won't be coming any time soon", the most logical time to assume a price drop is christmas time. I lol at the amount of blind love you have for a george foreman gri... I mean the PS3porky_ownsu

[QUOTE="hoosier7"][QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"] Well, last week the 360-killer was LBP but now we have changed our minds. We Cowghast believe Killzone 2 will finally kill the 360. If that fails, we move onto Infamous and firmware 2.70 and hope they get the job done.mitu123

[QUOTE="mitu123"][QUOTE="hoosier7"] You missed MAG and the price cut. =)hoosier7

Yep! If you go to the Official PS boards the dev even said that MAG would have Dedicated servers!

But what it doesn't have is enough of a push to wipe away the 360's lead in any amount of time that would be of any significance and if or when they past the 360, they have the Wii to contend with.

Good luck with that.
