It looks like a crappy Counterstrike in HD!

I just don't see anything impressive about Halo 3. Everything looks like Halo 2, just a little bit brighter and in HD.

"The game console's failure to hit even internal sales targets raises doubts about the electronics giant's 2009 turnaround forecast
by Kenji Hall
If only Sony (SNE) could fast-forward to March, 2009. That's when the Japanese technology company expects its video game business to finally make money after two years of hefty operating losses. But the prospect of Sony's PlayStation 3 gaming console dragging down earnings for another two years shouldn't have fazed anyone who attended the company's fiscal-year earnings announcement on May 16. Financial analysts have been offering a similarly gloomy forecast for months now.
However, investors were in for a nasty surprise on May 16: Sony failed to hit its own PS3 sales targets, Chief Financial Officer Nobuyuki Oneda said. Although the company had forecast global shipments of 6 million machines by the Mar. 31 end of its fiscal year, its factories made and sent off just 5.5 million. Worse, the actual number of PS3s in stores was closer to 3.6 million. The remaining 1.9 million were either sitting in warehouses or en route to stores, leaving as much as $1.1 billion in inventory. Perhaps that's why the company chose to stick to a more conservative sales forecast of 11 million units this year"
Fire most of their executives, buy out most dev companies around the world... tell MS that they will put Windows on PS4 if they abandon their xbox campaign. themyth01
Hopefully this was a joke post.Â
VGcharts have long been proven highly inaccurate. Hell at Neogaf, you can be BANNED for using these numbers in your posts. I wish a similar practise was followed here.

The fact that it sold 3.6 million with only a couple decent exclusive games out at a $600 price point is a surprise for me. asdasdWTF? It only sold that many due to the hype of the Playstation for the first couple weeks. Once people saw it was a piece of crap they forgot all about it. The PS3 is doomed for the rest of this gen.
