It still happended though.

Yeah..but so what?

I mean, not only was a PS3 approx $900 to make, which meant Sony was giving its users a bargain.....

But again so what? If I went around bringing up stats and figures from 2006 and 2007 when its almost 2011.....I might be a ridiculous fanboy.

I may be a fanboy, but certainly not a ridiculous one.

Why do you want Sony to continue running psn seeing no profit from it till they either start charging for it or shut it down?WilliamRLBaker

I fully expect my PS3's online to continue to be free and up and running for this entire generation.

Are you suggesting it will be otherwise?

[QUOTE="Unnatural101"]

Why do you want Sony to be as greedy to its customers as Microsoft?

Ken Kutaragi had this to say about Sony's goal for the PS3: "for consumers to think to themselves 'I will work more hours to buy one'. We want people to feel that they want it, irrespective of anything else."

Oh you mean back in 2006 and part of 2007? You mean several years ago?

You'd have to ask some of the guys that bought their PS3 back in 2006 and 2007, because I tend not to dwell on extremely old and out of date information that has no meaning to me when in about a week it will be 2011.

On the first point, I beg to differ. According to figures from the last financial quarter, the PS3 has sold 41.6 million units worldwide, whilst the 360 has sold 3 million more, 44.6 million. Marginal difference, but you can't rampade around saying how the PS3 has sold more. And anyway, both are obliterated by the Wii, which has sold over 75 million units. Again, with the last point, I beg to differ. The 360 is outselling the PS3 2:1 in NA - in the US it has sold 11.3 mil compared to 5.6 mil for the PS3. As well, 360 exclusives are outselling PS3 exclusives by a way - the Halo and Gears of War series outsell the Uncharted and God of War series 2 or 3 times over, with Forza sales about equalling the aforementioned PS3 titles. Dunno about you, but I definitely don't see that as 'life support'. I'm no lemming, but you can't argue with statistics. TheOtherTheoG

PS3 is the 3rd fastest selling console in the history of gaming.....Only the PS2 and the Wii have sold at a faster rate. Come March 31, PS3 will have sold 50 million units....not that sales matter, because what's important here is

PS3 is the 2010 GRAPHIX KING! ;)

[QUOTE="Unnatural101"]

[QUOTE="blackace"] That's just what one group of people think. That does not make it fact. PC still owns all right now in graphics. Neither the PS3 or XBox 360 can due the highest resolution that a PC can do. Anyway.. these awards come from a group that picked Demon's Soul as GOTY over Uncharted 2. lol!! *shakes head*. Too funny. HavocV3

Gamespot is teh master here.

Whomever doesn't like it.....there's the door.

*points at door*

PS3 is the GRAPHIX KING.

Deal.

"There is currently some disagreement on a game being considered a "true flop", and growing debate over what review scores "count" for that flop. The official policies of System Wars currently dictate that only GameSpot scores count, however other sites are often used to attempt to predict GameSpot's review scores."

which =/= GS's wordbeing law in everything else.

funny how so many try and twist it though.

PS3 is Graphix King for 2010, 2009, and 2008. I'm good with that ;)

I always love to see how people try to Spin Bungie loathing to stay with Microsoft So much, that they chose to Evil Activision over Atrocious Microsoft.

That's always good for a chuckle.

Microsoft are incompetent dev. studio Managers, no doubt about that.

Typical lemming.........trying to leech of the PS3s success.

I know im not the only one seeing the PS3 BOXART. 3 consecutive GOTYs for the trey. Game over.

-Snooze-

Yes, but just this time, for special occasions like this, we are to join forces and triumph over our enemy.

I mean, we do it every year anyways, so it shouldn't be a big deal by now. lol

The PS3 version was also inferior in every way.

Game of the Year is Game of the Year :)

Like I said before.....

PC gaming is in a death-like coma....unfortunately.

[QUOTE="DroidPhysX"]

Both are free;). I like XBL a little more but the differences are not much.

DroidPhysX

This is like the 5th or 6th time I've seen you say this.....but you never give an explaination.

Can you explain how XBOX LIVE is free, please?

I do it for the lolz. Im referencing to the point that XBL is free. XBL Gold isnt.:P

I see.

Can you play multiplayer games online with the Free version?
