[QUOTE="LOKI-RA"]Give the console a year before we start dissecting it. I remember the xbox 360 having a rough first year as well. mikasa

Well to be honest with you the first year microsoft sold 10 mil. So far going on 7 to 8 months the ps3 has sold what almost 4 mil. They got a ways to go.


Again, the 360 didn't come close to selling 10 Million it's first year.

the "give it more time" thing doesn't work anymore. the 360 did better than the ps3 has in its time frame.

Of course it has. But success of one doesn't deem failure of another. Especially when you consider all factors from an objective standpoint.

The 360 didn't sell near 10 Million in its first year.

sure it did...

it even says so on the very charts you cows like to use to "prove" ps3 sales..;)

No, it doesn't and it's not even close. I'm also confused as to why I'm a "cow" since I have all three systems and play more games on my 360 and even openly suggest people get the 360 if gaming is their primary concern in choosing a system.

[QUOTE="ramey70"]Sony's price isn't that out of line with past history. The original NES released with a $481 price tag and seemed to do okay. The orginal Atari 2600 was successful with a $682 release price.ultima-flare

Without inflation accounted for? If so, WOW. People are cheap nowadays.

No, that's BLS inflation adjusted pricing.

[QUOTE="No_worrys_mate"]

Like Nintendo is because their making a profit on each console and every product and made the most money last gen even though it sold the worst, But The Ps2 made money for Sony but made its money later as with this gen but they have tried to give the user everything they possibly could want at resonable price and their talking a major hit for it at im still here trying to defend if their not greedy or not.Eponique

Yes, I've said that, every company wants money, including Nintendo. But $600 for a toy? Sure it's fun, but c'mon... do you honestly expect people to pay that much? Also considering you can have as much fun on a Wii as a PS3 (well, not you, but most people).

Many people don't consider it just a "toy". Many gamers, like myself, are entering their 30's and treat gaming just like any other hobby. I also play golf, and $600 for equipment in that hobby is considered very cheap.

[QUOTE="hi381"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"][QUOTE="Fat_jonny"]

Just give it some time

hi381

it's had seven months.

and xbox had a year and 7 months..your point is?

Also 360 has about 3 AAA's on Gamespot. One that should of had a 8.0 the most ( PDz), also if Pdz got a 9 on here Rfom should of got a 9.2 the least.. wii has about 2..1 more than Ps3 they both had seven months your point is?? also in 7 months of the 360 I think it had 1 AAA (PDz) which we alll know shouldn't have gotten 1.

The 360 has 6 AAA's.
