MS might have good software sales this year but they probably wont sell as many consoles. I think the numbers will start to favor Sony and the gap will begin to get smaller by the week. I'm not convinced Blue Dragon, Ace Combat will sell that many copies.

Hey there, looking to buy a ps3 and currently have a 360 and wii but my nintendo is collecting dust and I'm getting rid of it and now I'm contemplating getting a ps3. Aside from a lack of games currently "which will be getting better shortly" are you guys happy with your purchase overall?

I have absolutely no regrets with my PS3 granted, I just recently purchased mine May 22nd so I haven't had as much time with it as those who bought one as launch but to me its a great machine probably the best console I ever owned

shes hot in the game too, shes based off her voice actress, whos pretty bangingR-Dot-Yung

The only problem they've made is the release date.

Releaseing in the same month as Ninja Gaiden Sigma is a awful idea.

People who could only afford 1 game will choose NGS. =/

Releaseing it in May might get them lot more sells. =/

Maybe but I think having a bunch of games releasing close together can create a buzz and those who do not have a PS3 in JPN will go out and buy one.

7k or even 20k isn't that much. Not that these games were expected to sell a lot. Hot Shots Golf on the other hand is expected to sell a lot. Last I heard the preorders were at 200k, and Sony has a nice bundle sale going on it as well. Trusty Bell being bundled with the 360 helped them sell some consoles

to bad for the remain. so my only cons agains PS3 is no halo/fable/mass effect and the controller....anw halo is a bit over-hype for me and i can leave without fable and mass effect(thanks to ff:P). Thanks a lot. I will think all that and decide...Athonline

If you don't mind playing on the PC those games like every other 360 game will eventually come to the PC. Fable 1 did so Fable 2 will. Halo 1 and 2 did, so Halo 3 will. Bioware made Jade Empire exclusive for the Xbox and it came to the PC, I expect Mass Effect to be the same. Even Lost Planet and Gears is coming to the PC.

1) The controller feels quite nice. I myself have a 360 and love the layout of it. I thought it was going to be difficult going back to the PS type controller but its not. I played Resistance on it and its very good. The controller is much lighter that's the biggest change.

2) The wifi is built in the console as is the power supply. So instead of a clunky cable on your floor that heats up, the PS3 has it inside the console so the console is heavier.

3) all PS2 and I believe PSX games work on the PS3 and upscaled.

4) No. I've heard stories of people leaving on their PS3 for 6 days straight. People are folding 24/7 even.

5) No. ofcourse with every product their might be a defective unit here or there but no where near as bad or high as the 360. The 360's design is the flaw, it lacks heatsinks to cool it down.

6) I have too many games I want this year and the next so I'm very picky what I buy. I bought Resistance, its a good game. My second game is The Darkness which comes out this Monday.

7) I haven't experienced any lag. And the PSN store is great, it reminds me of iTunes.

8) I haven't tried it but I think its true.

9) N/A

10) Yes. Nomura is hinting that he will make it but way after he's finished with other projects. I wouldn't expect it until 2010 or so

I was like you except my 360 didn't die. I just upgraded my PC making my 360 inferior and worthless in every way. The PS3 is a great machine for whatever you want to do, from going online and surfing the net, to making it a server with linux, to playing games to using it as a stereo in 7.1 sound, or watching DVD. blu-ray movies. This thing has it all and its built to last.
