MS will fix RROD for free even if you don't have a warranty. Just send it in. No matter how many times it happens. In fact, if it happens more the once your repairs get priority and it only takes a week. Good lord, at least try and learn whats going on instead of making baseless assumptions.

BTW, I have never gotten the RROD.

I'M making baseless assumptions? There has to be certain conditions for you to get a free replacement, it's not universal.

mgs4 was the only game that boosted the sales so much.

360 has still geow2, fable2, banjo3,viva pinata2, and too human(maybe).

btw sony said NO PRICE CUT PLANNED.

ALTAIR360

Also, LBP will is a bigger system seller than all those combined

Wow, just think about that. Almost 20 million people have purchased an Xbox 360 while Sony plays catch up. Microsoft did an outstanding job with the 360, and now they're here to stay. Millennium_King

This generations war will seem like a skirmish compared to next generations war. Gamers win for sure.

No, its not. Call MS and ask them. If you get RROD, send it in. They are not charging either. All this is aside from the fact that people should not be scared of by RROD, that's absurd. It sucks but it does not sleep with your girl friend and run off with your dog and wallet.

If the ps3 is only 4 million behind with the 360 year lead and a price handicap that's very impressive imo. Most people were saying the ps3 would fail here for years. I knew sony would come back but nintendo was a shock I knew they would sell because they were the cheapest but not like this.

Really the 360 has broken sony's strangle hold on the console market so from that point it's a moral victory but at this rate the 720 has to be a option for ms. The xbox brand is a money pit only ms could lose billions just to say hey we are slowly improving in a couple gens we might be the console leaders.

I think you misunderstood, I wasn't talking about the RROD exclusively, I meant for any problems in general. And even if you do get RROD, again, conditions have to be met.

Well its pretty obvious that Sony are catching up to MS really fast, despite 360s year head start PS3 has already destroyed the 360 in Japan and outsold it in Europe, PS3 has also outsold 360 the 1st half of 08. Before this year is over PS3 and 360's sales difference will be minimal.

PS3 & 360 are fighting for 2nd place while Wii looks on.

Coyo7e

It really feels like a lot of you must have been 10 years old when the first Xbox came out.

I don't understand why you said this? Clarify please?

It seems like you don't have a proper perspective on just what it was like when MS joined the console game. You don't seem to understand that listening to people talk about the console in this light for those of us that were gaming long before MS was a console maker is crazy because it seemed unlikely that they would even survive the first two years. It seems like you don't have an appreciation for just how much they have changed the equation.

Only because they are filthy rich. LOL I appreciate what they have done for the Playstation but other then Live M$ does nothing for gaming. Call me when they start making creative games. Also I have been gaming since the NES.

[QUOTE="Coyo7e"]How far Sony has fallen is made evident by the fact that only being 4 million behind MS in world wide sales is something to beat their chest about.death919

Exactly.

/thread

But is that really how bad Sony did and how they've recovered, or more so about how MS has screwed up?

How has M$ screwed up? They're on track to outsell their previous console. The same can't be said about the PS3.

Thats a stupid post. Of course they are going to outsell the original Xbox, that thign died years ago, while the PS2 is still selling. Every console is going to outsell the original Xbox, whle I doubt any console will outsell the PS2 (maybe wii).

I know people throw that around a lot but I am honestly starting to think renegade does.

I was actually a huge sheep last generation. Only owned a Gamecube until the end of it's great gaming cycle. Before that I only owned a N64. Now Gamecube left alot to be desired. With Nitendo's lack of online approach and lacking in the third party exclusives I was having doubts about my next loyal purchase with them. When I saw the Wii mote at TGS I was like hell no and I have been a Playstation gamer ever since.

I'm one of the people who bought an 80gb bundle. I know how good MGS4 is. I also know that MGO sucks, and Gears 2 will have some pretty fantastic multiplayer.

I know a ton of gamers who would say stuff like " I am just waiting for FF13 then I will buy a ps3"..... I used to see that all the time in SW.

The reality is that not even MGS4 closed the gap all that much. Blue-ray is the true closer. As long as the ps3 is still the cheapest it will be a factor. Is it still the cheapest?

I agree with renegade, I've gamed since NES as well, and was a PC gamer long before that (street rods and space quest FTW), Microsoft just throws money at things they want to get into, that's one of the main reasons they're still in. As for creative games, they've done some decent PC games but not a lot more than that :

It was amazing the turn around I felt for the ps3 when I played MGS4, then how that feeling evaporated and people suggesting that MGS4 is enough or the only AAAA exclusive this gen annoys me.

I really like my ps3 but 360 is the better console IMO.

I really doubt that statement is true overall, maybe a few of your friends are going to buy it but overall = The people who are most looking forward to GeOW2 and hyped for it have already played Gears 1, meaning they already own a 360. For someone who hasn't played it (like myself, i dont own a 360) I don't feel the urge to hype it or buy a 360 because I havn't played the first.

The PS3 is the king of creativity now? The only game remotely creative is LBP. It haven't played that yet. I have played Viva Pinata, and that game was very creative.

Hmm, your logic kinda fails. I just got a MGS4 bundle last month. I'm hyped for Resistance 2 now because, you guessed it, i bought the first one when I bought my bundle. See how that works out?

I too have been gaming since the legacy systems ( that atari 2600) and I think you guy are dead wrong about creativity. They have been supporters of plenty of new games over the last 7 years all to try and separate you from your money. You know, MS does not grow money on tree's. There is a reason they are rich. They are a brutal and unforgiving competitor, I don't like but I respect it.

So when the NES came out for me it was not old school gaming but the next generation system. Ninty has been less creative then MS. New controllers don't make new games.

I get the feeling rengade was playing the NES in 1994 and thinks that counts as "gaming since the NES".

Where do people get these numbers? Last week someone said it was 5 million units behind. Did it magically sell 1 million units in one week?

The PS3 is about 5.5 million units behind the Xbox 360 in worldwide sales.

Source http://www.vgchartz.com/

Now before you get your panties in a knot, I know VGchartz may not be accurate for weekly sales, but for lifetime sales it is accurate. And besides, it is an unbiased third party source.

But your example still doesn't make it a system seller, because you already own the system. It does make an argument for improved sales of the game over the original. Gears 2 has many similarities to the original next-generation 360 game, however. It's not quite in the same position as MGS4. Do you also know many 360 fans who are buying a PS3 for Resistance 2?

Well here's the thing. Gaming on PS3 is basically like gaming on PC Wii there is no comparision. Live is superior but PSN is free and it does what I want it to do. PS3 gets basically the same third party games as the 360 with the exception of a few. Also I like Sony's first party games better.

They have been supporters of plenty of new games over the last 7 years all to try and separate you from your money. You know, MS does not grow money on tree's. There is a reason they are rich. They are a brutal and unforgiving competitor, I don't like but I respect it.

So when the NES came out for me it was not old school gaming but the next generation system. Ninty has been less creative then MS. New controllers don't make new games.

I get the feeling rengade was playing the NES in 1994 and thinks that counts as "gaming since the NES".

You know what I actually started on the atari aswell but I only played like one racing game so it really doesn't count...

[QUOTE="Eddie-Vedder"]Does anyone really doubt the PS3 will outsell the 360?skektek
The diehard Lemmings.

If there is one thing that makes me happy, its that i'm not a cow. Because i would have bought a 599$ console to beat a b*ttload of giant enemy crabs until Call of Duty 4 without rumble....

How about making a thread about this If it surpasses the 360. Do we have to have one of these everyday? Why cant there be a sticky for this PLEASE MODS!? So now were suppose to run with what Sony guy Jack says? Its pretty pathetic that the 360 will somehow be considered crap or something if it ends up 3rd. Is that what 3rd place is considered? What exactly are you trying to do with these topics? Are you just that sad about 3rd place or something?:|

mgs4 was the only game that boosted the sales so much.

360 has still geow2, fable2, banjo3,viva pinata2, and too human(maybe).

btw sony said NO PRICE CUT PLANNED.

ALTAIR360

You act like PS3 has no more games...

GT5, God of War3, Twisted Metal Black 2, New Team Ico game, Resistance 2, Killzone2 and many more. And i guarantee you that all the games i mentioned will sell 1million+ you can quote me on that if you wish.

Poor MS, their 1 year advatage didnt help them. 360s destiny was 3rd place since the first day it lauched.Hitman533

i was hoping 360 to be second and nintendo 3rd. So nintendo would drop out the console race and just concentrating on the software side.

Like that matters, 360 still has the premiere 3rd party support. The PS3 will outsell the 360 eventually, just because it's a HD DVD player, but I buy my systems for games, not movies. I don't need a 10th DVD player.

Also, LBP will is a bigger system seller than all those combined.

Yeah, an IP that no-one but Hardcore PS3 Gamers have heard of so far will move more consoles than a combination of either Gears Of War 2 + Fable 2/Gears Of War 2 + Banjo 3... Wait. There are Gears Of War 2, Fable 2, Mass Effect 2, Halo Wars, Banjo 3 Nuts & Bolts.. And more.

If you really think that a single relatively unknown IP is going to take all those IP's, good luck.

You put Banjo 3 on your list. That's pretty sad.

Resistance 2 will own Gears 2.

Halo Wars will flop.

Fable 2 will be alright.

Banjo 3 will be nothing special, and all you lemmings know that.

PS3 will have the better games this year, and in the future. You know that too.

Gears has a ton more widespread fans across the globe and it isn't just a generic game like Resistance is, Halo Wars will sell regardless, just because of the brand name. Fable 2 is only improving on Fable 1, which was a solid game, and Banjo looks promising though I don't exactly love the direction it's going in. LBP will not be a system seller, PS3 has no widespread appeal, all of the casuals either play Wii or 360.

Banjo 3 is actually looking good

Gears will slap around resistance liek ti did 2 years ago.

Halo Wars actually has solid controls for a console rts if u even bothered checking.......

PS3 wont pass 360 in 08, meaning ur still our ****** until sometime in 09.

Is PS3 catching 360 getting to you? You say 05 but PS3 wasn't even out in 05 and the only reason 360 was ahead in 06 an 07 is because it launched first. Enjoy your little lead while you can because it won't be long before PS3 has it's crown back.

Comparing PC fanbase to a consoles fanbase is unfair and irrelevant.

The PS3 is the king of creativity now? The only game remotely creative is LBP. It haven't played that yet. I have played Viva Pinata, and that game was very creative. Millennium_King

Just need to name one developer. Fumito Ueda.
