I would have just one damn SKU at a set price, when it comes out, and then start lowing the price over the years. You know like what they used to do before Mircosoft started this more then one SKU crap, where the consumer is so confuse, that they don't know what the hell to buy.

And now Sony is taking it to a whole new idiotic level.

[QUOTE="SergeantSnitch"][QUOTE="Unforgiven2870"]

Aww snitch go cry me a river.Enjoy your 360 tell me how many times do you plan on sending it in?And 2 MGS4 isn't going to the 360.

At least those of us logical people around here are actually catching on to sony.Don't know what your beef is tradeing it in for a 360?Your acting like your going to misout or something?

Tell me what troubles you?

Unforgiven2870



My plan was to wait until around October or so, like after the release of GTAIV to see how both games shaped up (I'd be damned if R* didn't spend as much time on the PS3 version and the 360 version was superior in some way), then make my decision on which system to get. But now, by October, the 60gb version will be very difficult to find...But that isn't what's bothering me. It's the fact that Sony doesn't realize that 80% of PS2 sales was when the console cost under $200. So by going back to the $599 price tag, they are taking a step BACK in the wrong direction. Wow, I can't believe Sony's actions had me convinced that they actually cared about the PS3 taking off and I honestly thought there would be an additional $100-150 around the sametime next year. Boy, was I wrong. What troubles me is that at this rate, the PS3 isn't going to succeed, let alone last ten years. Sony basically has destroyed the Playstation brand. It's all but a joke now.

Misconception.They can't go back to $599 after the 60gb's are gone.They will have an 80gb for $499 by the time the holidays come provided they sold out all the 60gb's just think about man.If i bought a 60gb i woulden't be mad because i know i can upgrade later.2 i don't want motor storm or resistance.If ya look at my prediction on this page.It may be more clear to ya as to what they are planning.Dirty trick?yes.Will it help? We have to wait and see if it does.

Sometimes in busineuss you have to get down and dirty.Don't beleve me?then I got one word for you (Microsoft).

Link!

Dude thats complete speculation, there is no hint that they will bring down the 80gig SKU, all they are doing is selling out the 60gig $499to get rid of stock, and try to add more value to the new SKU, wich will stay at $599.

By this christmas all thats going to happen is we will have the same $599 price tag on just about the same PS3, with just only 20gigs more and a damn game.

Sony you just don't get it we don't wan't more value, we just want a console that isn't going to make us go broke, And the 60gig $499 SKU was a step in the right direction, but now if you don't get the good deal now, then your just out of luck. wich is bull, alot of people and i mean alot are waiting for the big games to come out, that means now we are stuck paying that damn $599 price again.

This is dumbest thing that I have ever heard, and will be closeing the door on Sony for me. We wanted a price drop, so they give us it,but for only a litmited time, then it's back to only one SKU back at the $599 price tag, all because they don't want two SKUs again?

Sony you dumb **** why not just forget about this 80gig one and just stay with the60gig $499 SkU, thats what we wanted, Sony is completly blowing it here, and with all that good press and stuff at E3, they are just out of there minds, it dosn't make any sence to me.

So ifI don't get the PS3 right now, then im just **** out of luck I guess, untell what? a year or two from nowwhen it come down in priice again.

This is complete and utter dull.

This is dumb, i was all hyped to buy a 60gigPS3 at the begining of next year, for just the $499 price tag. But if this info is true, then by then it won't even be around anymore. Man Sony is making it really confusing just to buy there damn console, what the hell is going on?

What the heck happend to the days when they just put out one version of there console, at one price point?

1. No its not a visual masterpiece. Infact, it doesn't need to be. Visuals play a very small amount in any GOTY Contender.

2. The game just looks fun to play. FUN is the #1 most important aspect of any game. If any person can look at the video's and not say the game looks amazingly fun then I have to ask if they are even a gamer.

3. It's Mario and Mario has revolutionized gaming several times over. Just because it's not doing 30 million polys a second does not mean you can dismiss the technology and effort that goes into this game.

Oh for goodness sake, do you Nintendo fans really thinkthat like every Wii game should get a Goty, because there is like a thread for every Wii game stateing that?

What if he owns the other two next gen consoles. Mighty big matzo ball hanging from your pie hole, eh

Sorry it's just i see this every day, yesterday was a thread saying Wii fit should get a Goty, then before that Wii sports, and just about every Wii game has had the same thread.

The Nintendo Wii could take a crap, and the fans would be like, thats goty for sure, it's geting old.

90% of the population on these boards call themselves 'hardcore' gamers, and scoff at anything with less than 4 million polygons on the screens at once.

Wake up and smell the coffee, the ps2 sold because it offered games for every demographic at a reasonable price. Games were cheap. The ps2 had the weakest graphics.

The DS is selling because it offers games for every demographic at a reasonable price. It has n64 graphics to the psp's ps2 graphics.

The wii is selling because it offers games for every demographic at a reasonable price. It has xbox1 graphics to the xbox360's and ps3 graphics.

Moral of the story? Hardcore gamers that call themseleves that because they love to look at and talk more about games than actually play them, are just one small segment of this vast gaming populace.

The true mature 'hardcore' gamers don't write of games without playing them, don't judge a title buy it's graphics, NEVER put visuals beyond any other aspect. The 'hardcore' in this case only comes from the fact that they play games very often, any games, all games, to pass time, and to have fun.

'nintendo is killing gamingz!!11!! :cry:

'Ps3 gpuZ iZ weakerz!!!111!!! :cry:

'Xbox360 only haZ ShooTErZ and no ExclusiveZ!!1111!!! :cry:

'teH gameZ suxorz coz it has CraP grafiX!!!!1111!!! :cry:

^that represents 90% of the people (immature kids) here. Luckily the other 10% make coming back here worth it, and yes some of those are kids also, albeit mature intelligent ones.

Bu bub uteH :cry:

ENOUGH!

Show someone that only has a Wii, like my aunt, A PS3 game or a Xbox 360 game. And just watch, they wouldn't like it in any way, why? Because there not gamers in any way, all they want is a simple console with simple games, there not going to further the gaming world there just holding it back. And guess what this is what Nintendo is pushing into thw world, there takeing us a step back and that is a fact.

this game is ridiculously boring is anyone else about ready to vomit from playing this game? i doubt it scores higher then 7.0. the hype was insane for this game i doubt there will be anyone excited to pick this title up now

resistancemang

I think it's a good game, considering that in the demo you just jumpright into the game, with no story buld up or anything, and the combat system takes a few min to get used to,but once you do it works good.

I'll be picking this game up,I think it's worth it.

Good post. TC

I know it's the truth, because the nintendo fans thatI know, are starting to shy away fron nintendo and the Wii, one of them didn't even buy it when it came out. But guess who is into the Wii, and love sit? My aunt, who never was a gamer, im not even sure if she ever even played a video game before, and yet she is all into the Wii spots and stuffnow.

It's sad to see what Nintendo is doing to the sheeps.

Ok the line between the Wii being a Gaming console and some kind of work out device has just got really thin.

Whats next Nintendo drops there game lineup, and turns Nintendo into a fitness co.
