Hi boys and girls!

It's time for me to get involved in this. I agree with PS3nut, 100%. I've owned the original Xbox 3 times over and 360 3 times, and everytime I've owned those systems I've had nothing but problems. Freeze up after freeze up. My friends started calling it the IceBox. I got so frustrated that went out and got the PS2. and you know what; NOT ONE PROBLEM. I owned it right up to the 360. Traded in my PS2 (BIG MISTAKE) for a 360 and guess what; more problems, including the ever popular; RROD. Got rid of it and got another one. And guess what; RROD. Thank God for the PS3. I've owned everything from the Dreamcast all the way up to the PS3 and I've never had more problems with any other system than with the Xbox and 360. So what if they have a bigger library. I'd rather have a smaller library and a reliable system than a bigger library and a CRAP system. Yeah, great dashboard, by the way. Froze up and RROD'd my system.

I've had my 360 since July '07 and no problems really. My 40 gig ps3 was purchased April '08 and stopped reading blu-rays. Sent it out Dec 27th and still waiting to get it back.I had the DRE on my fat ps2 as well, you're overreacting.

Well if GI won't admit the newer models have lower failure rate then their years worst should be RROD 2009 and 2010 aswell. RROD infinity.

Don't forget about RROD is it bad or isn't? If it's bad then that would affect sales too right?

Basically GI and Cows say the RROD is terrible but the fact is 360 still is out selling the PS3. Sony can't even beat a broken console with red lights blinking at the PS3. :P

Mine started w/ the constant DRE's, and about 4 months later, RRoD. 9 days turn around time total for repair. DRE issue fixed, RRoD fixed, console even runs quieter. Everybody's experience will be different.

it's because of the PS3 price and 360s year head start

I can hear you lemmings now (oh nooo it the game are better in 360 ha haaa and that year had nothing to do with it just 360 betta ha haaa)

lol

fact is m$ dropped the ball by rushing a faulty system into store PS 3 took it's sweet time to make sure it's reliable and we get an aded blue ray as a bonus what do you get rrod, disk scratching

Im pretty sure 360 owners relize the hardware problems are ridicolous..... It has its problems but it also has its positives (best lineup of games by far of the consoles).

[QUOTE="Keggerr"]I would rather keep my 360 and get great titles all year round then get a PS3 and get 2 good games a year PS3nut

Really, PS3 exclusives so far: Motorstorm 1 & 2, Resistance 1 & 2, Warhawk, Gran Turismo 5, Heavenly Sword, MLB: The Show 07- 08, MGS-4, Ratchet & Clank, Little Big Planet, Valkyria Chronicles

Great exclusives to come this year: Killzone 2, Infamous, White Knight Chronicles, God of War 3, Dark Void, Heavy Rain These are just the great exclusives off the top of my head but there are more.

What does your 360 exclusives consist of ?, wait let me see if i can guess, Halo 3, Gears 1 & 2, Crackdown, Project Gotham racing, Left 4 dead, Fable 2, Mass Effect, is there even anything else, or at least anything worth mentioning because the 360 exclusives list is like half the size of Sony's.

Ps 3 is not doing that bad in the sales department yes it's behind 360 but not by much iyou take away the money from the year head start PS 3 and 360 are pretty much even.

but yes you are right it is a disapointment PS 3 is not selling better probably when PS 4 comes out they need to do the right thing rush out the systems to poor saps as soon as possible to get money even though you know the system is broken and make it real dirt cheap, yea that's how business goes.

hopefully sony learned it's lesson this gen people want garbage for cheap

My point is you guys never factor in RROD when concerning sales.

I hear cows (360 is rushed crap that RRODs ) But when you bring up 360 selling better you don't hear about RROD.

That faulty disk scratching RROD console is out selling the PS3 even with added Blu-Ray. :lol:

Good ol' Microsoft 360's Red Ring of Death is still going strong enough to make it to the top of the list.

So as i said a million times to you 360 fanboys before, the PS3 library can always improve and grow, but the 360 hardware will always be garbage...

Time to face the facts that every other magazine and website seems to know, accept you guys in S.W..

Blue Ray has helped sony in consumers purchasing the PS 3 it's a bonus most including me love having blue ray in the PS 3 it's like the icing on the cake in fact i'm excited to get "The Dark Knight" on Blue Ray soon, as far as price it hasn't helped the PS 3 because of the expensive cost of making blue ray now over time that's a different story over time blue ray will help sony as blue ray get's cheaper and the cost of making the PS 3 also decreases the blue ray is an added feature that makes the PS 3 more desirable to gamers and non gamers alike.

You shouldn't be mad at us getting blue ray you should be happy for us the blue ray is awesome it's way better than the features on your 360 the wonderful rrod and disk scratching.

you need to focus your hate on the people that deserve it the greedy m$ workers who rushed the system to your doors without making sure it's reliable only to get your $$$

Blu-Ray helps sales but then it drive the price up so it doesn't. RROD is bad but it drives 360 sales up.

Tons of exclusive Devs are leaving Sony DMC has a 20 min install. The PS3 is selling the worst, the software is selling the worst, the PS3 is the most expensive console on the market and Sony is losing money on every console sold. I'm not mad at all I love RROD it sell more consoles remember.

I am also very happy for you that your system is unreliable

Aparently m$ needs to add more features like rrod because sales truthfully have not been that good for m$ they are 28 million and PS 3 is 20 million meaning that m$ has the same lead it had with the 1 year head start ooops have they made any progress in those 2 years they were not alone as the next gen system apparently not

wii just flew past them like they were not even there and they can't even get rid of the PS 3 which is $200 more expensive m$ really took advantage of that one year head start

wow man you got alot to be proud off I envy you so much for having the redbox 360

Redbox 360 out sells the PS3 while Sony loses money on every PS3 sold. The evil MS is making money off of the redbox 360 while Sony loses money and exclusives. MAhaa haaa haaa Go redbox 360 go!

umm sorry to break news to you but sony is hardly losing anything now and in a few months they wont be losing at all.

and m$ isn't making much money cause most of the money they get from sales aparently they are losing billions because of lawsuits and the economy is hitting them hard as well look at the workers they had to cut m$ is also struggling

I do not see PS3 games grow though, it gets lesser and lesser ones, MGS4, LBP and Killzone 2 are some of the most last gen games ever created this generation

It is funny that Lost Odyssey and Kameo destroys them visually

It gets much worst for PS3 in 2009 too, with 360 getting the below game lineup

Meh Lost Odyssey looks like a PS2 game in HD. Kameo looks great, but i can't compete with recent games. I don't mind have last gen games on PS3 as long as their AAAA, and AAA. Can't really say that for LO and Kameo. 360 having a great line-up doesn't hurt the PS3, especially since its having the better one.

Redbox 360 out sells the PS3 while Sony loses money on every PS3 sold. The evil MS is making money off of the redbox 360 while Sony loses money and exclusives. MAhaa haaa haaa Go redbox 360 go!

umm sorry to break news to you but sony is hardly losing anything now and in a few months they wont be losing at all.

and m$ isn't making much money cause most of the money they get from sales aparently they are losing billions because of lawsuits and the economy is hitting them hard as well look at the workers they had to cut m$ is also struggling

Nope you're just wrong Each $399 80GB console costs $449 Sony to make. There is no PS3 hardware revision in a few months. Gamespot just ran and article on this.

Sucks for those people who keep getting the RROD. I've only had to replace mine once since Dec 1 2006.Bloodbath_87
That's pretty cool man. ONLY ONCE IN TWO YEARS. In 18 years of using Apple products and 12 years of Nintendo I've had to replace one hardrive on a 4 year old iMac. We didn't even know what was going on. BUT YOUR RELIABILITY IS NEARLY AS GOOD MAN KEEP ON TRUCKIN!

[QUOTE="PS3nut"]

Well the latest game informer arrived today and they listed the top 10 disappointments of 2008 and guess what took the number one spot as the biggest disappointment of 2008 ?

Good ol' Microsoft 360's Red Ring of Death is still going strong enough to make it to the top of the list.

So as i said a million times to you 360 fanboys before, the PS3 library can always improve and grow, but the 360 hardware will always be garbage...

Time to face the facts that every other magazine and website seems to know, accept you guys in S.W..

360-Fever

i really dont mean to call you out........but if Xbox 360 is outselling PS3 (i saw the dec NPD)..........doesnt that mean ppl would rather take a risk then buy a PS3?

yeah! What does that really say about the PS3? People choosing a "dissapointing hardware" over a more "superior" system?
I've had RROD on me twice and I've bought a seond Xbox360 as well. never in my mind did I think then to actually get a PS3!

The games are on the Xbox360, the online play, cheap as to replace or purchase a new one for your home lan setup! I guess all 360 fans feel real bad :)

No, actually it means, since the economy is struggling right now, people are just buying what's cheaper and not necessarily what's better.

yea, and the 360 is better! i can state my opinion jst as well. Given the only problem really for the 360 is the RROD, but people still get it because of the GAMES and the cheaper PRICE. What's better then that?

[QUOTE="Innocentguy757"]Who cares I'll go a 3 weeks without my 360 as long as I have the 360's library over the crappy one of the PS3Keggerr
100% true The 360 library blows the PS3 library out of the water

yeah!

I'd also rather have choice of a selection of games then just a few "good " exclusives.

The PS2 was the weaker of the previous generations, and it had a notorious hardware issues,but still provided good gaming value. So cheap to buy with a huge library of games. I recognised that and I bought one, just like I bought an Xbox360 over a PS3.

[QUOTE="SpruceCaboose"][QUOTE="thedangle1"]I'm just adding some comic relief to this war, and it is a war. I've been playing videos games since PONG. Remember that one? Probably not, but there's is no anecdote. From just my experience and knowledge, the PS3 is a far better system than 360. No RROD's or freeze ups. thedangle1

I remember PONG, but that predates me by a few years. I am 24, so it seems you have some experience on me. I would agree that to me the PS3 is the better system from a reliability PoV (absolutely here, no doubt in my mind). Its also a good game system, but for me personally, the 360 has been a more complete gaming system to me. I still love the PS3, but it is not my primary gaming system. It may sound cliche, but I spend more time with it as a Blu-Ray player (I am also a huge movie fan, possibly more than gaming, but I doubt it).

I'm glad to see a sensible 360 fan agree with PS3 owners. That's all we want is for you 360 owners to admit the FACT, not opinion, but fact, that the PS3 is a better system. We're not talking library here, yet. PS3 owners are patient. Can anyone say "GOD OF WAR III?"

you have to be patient with the PS3, becuase isn't that the motto? "just wait....." what ever year of the PS3 it is. I still want to play my games. instead of promises.

define a better system?

Don't forget about RROD is it bad or isn't? If it's bad then that would affect sales too right?

Basically GI and Cows say the RROD is terrible but the fact is 360 still is out selling the PS3. Sony can't even beat a broken console with red lights blinking at the PS3. :P

it's because of the PS3 price and 360s year head start

I can hear you lemmings now (oh nooo it the game are better in 360 ha haaa and that year had nothing to do with it just 360 betta ha haaa)

lol

fact is m$ dropped the ball by rushing a faulty system into store PS 3 took it's sweet time to make sure it's reliable and we get an aded blue ray as a bonus what do you get rrod, disk scratching

tek91

the added blu-ray is not a bonus- you're paying for it. What else is there that makes the PS3 more expensive? Sony droped the ball when they thought they could sweep this generation "the next gen doesn't start until we say so..." by touting the PS3 as the Blu ray Player like they did with the PS2. Why didn't it work.

their decisions were out manouvered by their competitior MS, a console that is still comparable in performance and technology, out a year earlier, larger base of games, a better consistant online service, multiplats generally looking better, because it is easier to develop for,

I don't know man. who really dropped the ball? RROD seems to be the only issue for MS - but they atleast have made some great effort s to assue poeple with their 3 year warranty.

We hear so many excuses as to why the PS3 is where it is. It's the Economy, It's the price tag, It's the casuals crappy tastes in games, it's the marketing department, it's lazy developers, it's whatever!!!

Face it, Sony needs to go back to drawing board.

My point is you guys never factor in RROD when concerning sales.

I hear cows (360 is rushed crap that RRODs ) But when you bring up 360 selling better you don't hear about RROD.

That faulty disk scratching RROD console is out selling the PS3 even with added Blu-Ray. :lol:

listen kid

truthfully rrod actually helps in the salez does m$ take back the sales of the systems returned nope but they do take as more sales for them the systems purchased again after the person brought back their system because it broke

the price is the only issue with the PS 3 end of story

no. it's not end of story.

price is very important if not then we would all be driving dream cars- ferrari's, lamborhinni's

Don't just dismiss it. if Sony drops it's price MS will respond. then were back to square one again!

other issues too. why do multiplats generally look better on the xbox360.?

Why is Xboxlive a paid service not being ' thrashed by a free online service that is "catching up"-(from the sounds of it they will always be catching up)

RROD does contribute to sales but no substantially to what Cows make out to.

What ever you need to tell you self. I'm sure you believe Blu-Ray helps PS3 sales.

Blue Ray has helped sony in consumers purchasing the PS 3 it's a bonus most including me love having blue ray in the PS 3 it's like the icing on the cake in fact i'm excited to get "The Dark Knight" on Blue Ray soon, as far as price it hasn't helped the PS 3 because of the expensive cost of making blue ray now over time that's a different story over time blue ray will help sony as blue ray get's cheaper and the cost of making the PS 3 also decreases the blue ray is an added feature that makes the PS 3 more desirable to gamers and non gamers alike.

You shouldn't be mad at us getting blue ray you should be happy for us the blue ray is awesome it's way better than the features on your 360 the wonderful rrod and disk scratching.

you need to focus your hate on the people that deserve it the greedy m$ workers who rushed the system to your doors without making sure it's reliable only to get your $$$

tek91

Blu-Ray helps sales but then it drive the price up so it doesn't. RROD is bad but it drives 360 sales up.

Tons of exclusive Devs are leaving Sony DMC has a 20 min install. The PS3 is selling the worst, the software is selling the worst, the PS3 is the most expensive console on the market and Sony is losing money on every console sold. I'm not mad at all I love RROD it sell more consoles remember.

I am also very happy for you that your system is unreliable

Aparently m$ needs to add more features like rrod because sales truthfully have not been that good for m$ they are 28 million and PS 3 is 20 million meaning that m$ has the same lead it had with the 1 year head start ooops have they made any progress in those 2 years they were not alone as the next gen system apparently not

wii just flew past them like they were not even there and they can't even get rid of the PS 3 which is $200 more expensive m$ really took advantage of that one year head start

wow man you got alot to be proud off I envy you so much for having the redbox 360

Ha haha . What are you a preacher? "I'm so very happy for you.."

"don't hate me because I'm beautiful" crap.

I envy you too for having to pay for something more to when play games, when I can get the same ones on a cheaper console.

I envy you more when you're online service is free, but still isn't as consistant as Xbox Live and is still "catching up"

I envy you for your patience in having to "just wait....." for those big releases and promises, while I play my games now. "the year of the PS3"

I envy you for not having generally better looking muliplat games

I eny you when Sony has come off the backs of a great legacy of the PS2 brand name but failed to captilise it and stomp the competition as a lot of people predicted would happen in '08

I guess you have a LOT of xbox360 owners to be envious off.

instead of hating, why don't you buy a Xbox360, then you won't have to be envious any more :)

No it means that most consumers don't know about the RROD problem that is occuring with most 360's when buying it.. I was the very same when I bought my 360.

So what were the other 9? I'm sure there were a couple of things about Sony and PS that you conveniently *forgot* to mention. But people should really stop using the PS2 as an excuse for RROD- it had less problems than the 360 and a vastly better library. PS2 DRE does not suddenly make the RROD acceptable.

I love the posters who come up with the stories about having 5 or 6 RRoDs. Don't get me wrong, I'm not naive enough to believe it can't happen but mathematically, if you go by the probabilities its highly unlikely. That and most of them come across as complete fanboys.
