COD 4 and Assasins Creed will MOVE PS3s MORE Than 360s!!

You have to consider that COD4 and Assasins Creed will be major system sellers. For those that have not yet bought a next gen console and want a next gen console for just COD4 Or assasins creed, chances are they are going to choose to buy the PS3 for those games instead of a 360.. Why you ask?! Well for starters why not pay $50.00 more for built in blu ray and WIFI and also Free online, especially the COD4 fans, why pay $400.00 for a 360 and a year of xbox live to play COD 4 online when you can pay the same amount for a PS3 and get FREE ONLINE, Double the HDD Space, Built in WIFI and most of all built in Blu ray..

So yes, COD 4 and Assassins creed are 2 multiplats that will MOVE PS3s. Lets think about it from a consumer's standpoint, not a "System Wars" fanboy standpoint. Lets say hes in the market to buy a next gen console and that consumer has pretty much grown up on PS2 for the last 5 years, he has $400.00 to spend on a next gen console.. So give me one reasonable explanation he would not choose a PS3 over a 360.. 1.Its more reliable. 2.its free online, 3.COD4 and Assassins Creed will own. 4.It has built in WIFI and blu ray, NO BC you say, eh not a big deal.. He still has his trusty PS2

That's great and all, if the only games those people intend to ever play are those. What if they also want Halo 3, Mass Effect, and Bioshock? Kinda makes the 360 a better buy....

Only system movers are the exclusives. I don't either will "move" the 360 or PS3 very far in terms of overall sales. You can predict all you want...but it's still a guess. Uncharted will move PS3's before either of those IMO. Your reliable point is a joke...the 360 is reliable. And the small percentage that have an issue (RROD) have it fixed for free. So? Why the crying?

Also, the 360 has tons of exclusives and tons of amazing games. That's always a deciding factor...and the 360 has a HUGE advantage there.

Ok, you say you want to take this from the perspective of a non System Wars consumer.

But then you expect them to have an intimate knowledge of the differences in hardware between the 360 and the PS3? You expect them to understand firstly, what Blu-ray is, and then actually have the technology in their homes to use it (HDTV ownership rates are low, even in the US).

Most of all, you expect them to care about WiFi and the different HDD spaces, even if they know about it?

Bottom line, most consumers will be swayed by price and big name games. The PS3 really isn't getting an advantage over the 360 here.

And brand loyalty matters for little outside of System Wars. If it did, Sega never would have had the problems it did, Nitendo would never have stopped trucking on and the PS1 would never had managed to penetrate the market.

Let's say, I want to buy Ice cream.

I already have the ice cream, now I just need the scoop.

I could either spend $60 for a super hitech scoop that does all this extra crap, that I don't really care about.

Or I could get the same size scoop for $25.

Let me think about this...

i like your logic, thats the way i think too :D

Such flawed reasoning...dragonlife29

yes it is..... this idea that the TC had pretty much only applies to that "general" set of people, there are much more people out there with diff ideas and needs of a system.. for example .... what if they don't care about WIFI ? O.o ! argument broken.

You do realize that Call of Duty has a pretty large following on the 360 and that most people go where the competition is.wmc540

that's a really good point. I know when I think CoD, I think 360. That accossiation alone will help the 360.

Dude, you're a fanboy. If I had $400 extra to spend, I would get a 360 cuz I have more money for games.nevereathim

And then 2 years down the road when blu ray becomes standard you'd wish you had spent the extra few bucks for the ps3 .

1) Why would it become standard in 2009 if HDTVs aren't predicted to be standard by then?

2) Why would he regret buying a PS3 now, if he could theoretically get it in 2009 cheaper?

Disagree.

And both will sell more on the 360. FACT.

lol owned

Wrong because CoD4 is better on the 360 and even Playstation Universe thinks so

May find some jaggies on the PS3 version...not as smooth in some areas as you may find on the PC or 360

There will be no standard for media anymore.... ever hear of VOD? No need for Discs/media unless you're sharing with others... and then why would you use a proprietary format which is far more expensive then something like an SD card?

Times have changed... HD DVD and BR will never become the "next format"... welcome to the future.

writting in bolded letters doesnt help get ure point across

its an eyesore. stop

Actual conversation at Best Buy.

"Why does this one cost $150 more?" (Customer referring to 80gig PS3 vs. 'Pro' 360)

"Because it has built in blu-ray for Hi-Def movie playback."

"What's a blu-ray, and will it work with my sons TV?"

"Is it high definition?"

"It's about 20 inches, does that help? What's high definitive mean?"

And that's why the PS3 isn't selling well. Everybody gets the Wii, and they get Halo 3 because it's on the cover of Wired and talked about in the Wall Street Journal. All they see is the price, and the lack of Nintendo games and Halo. Hell, my mother still refers to all video games as Nintendo. The PS3 ads so far haven't helped either.

"PS3. It makes fake babies cry." Huh?

i concur...basically, if you like MGS4, buy a PS3, if you like Halo3, buy an xbos360 (i know, i know, there are tons of games on either platform, i'm just making an example). anyhoo, this is surely a fanboy thread. of course, this is system wars.
