Until some solid "exclusive" great games, that take advantage of the PS3, it would be foolish to purchase a PS3 right now.especially in europe. sony made it clear that they don't care about the consumer, (Because they know you'll buy it attitude.) They don't need your $600 plus dollars they got blu-ray.
Boyszone "M$ posted that htey upgraded 360 to 512M for Gear of War & cost them 1 Billon $and did anybody saw the new movie of Crysis !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Were have you been at? The 360 has been 512MB of RAM from the gate.
duelstar Your blind if you think Killzone will have the same success as Halo did. "Fable 2-FFXIII(this is a matter of opinion. To me Final Fantasy has been the single greatest RPG series to ever been released, and I would never compare it to Fable even though i like Fable. Fable can't even compare to the series on a commercial level)." Masseffect is going to completely own Final Fantasy, interms of game play. Are you insane? Fable for 8 weeks was selling an excess of 300,000 copies PER WEEK. . http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/rpg/fable/news.html?sid=6111138&mode=press And your comparing a series thats been out for 20 years.(tech 19 years) vs a series thats 2 years old Bioshock-http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/action/bioshock/index. not to sure if you knew but BioShock has been announced for the PC and the PS3 also, not a 360 exclusive Forza 2-Gran Turismo "HD" (they can equate, but commercially GT has had more success), " Were have you been at BIOSHOCK And Splinter Cell 5 are 360 exclusives. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splinter_Cell_5http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/bioshock/news.html?sid=6158961 The secondlink is straight from 2Kgames And as for Forza motorsport vs Grand tourismo all I have to say is this when forza comes out, there will be more 360s sold than PS3s when Forza2 will be out first which one do you think is going to sell more? I would count the 360 out just yet, There is many games on the 360 thats out that are great, sony has a lot of ground to make up. This next gen console war is going to be a FIGHT!!!! Let the games begin!!!!
One thing you people are forgeting is that the HD DVD add on by M$ is an option as in buy it if you want to, you don't have to buy it. With the PS3 you have to buy the Blu-ray drive. And don't think for a minute that the first generation PS3s won't be with out problems. And remember that all of these next generation DVDs(Because that's what Blu-ray and HD DVDs are) Have 2 lazer lenses(1 for the Blu0ray/ HD DVD, and 1 for the reg DVDs.) Which means were going back to PS2 ville with 2 different drives.(DVD and CD ROM drives) That means when one dies to get it fixed it will cost you.(sony will not fix these things for free if they break) All next gen DVD players have 2 lazer lenses, including the PS3.(right now the Blue lazers can't read DVDs so a red lazer is needed to play DVDs and everything else) But I must point out that that was brilyant of sony to make the console be able to flip sides while its running with out scatching the discs. These final specs just show how much they emulated the 360. The BDD is cool but too risky.(right now) And another thing The PS3 doesn't give gamers very many choices. Thats what the Xbox brand is about choices, multiple options. Withe PS3 you don't have very many options. The 360 is still and will always still be a great system.And is HERE TO STAY!!!! And it will have the games to proove it. That's all the sales and the games will do the talking, not you sony fanboys. Lets see what the casuals will buy in 2 years.
PC is king if you've got the money to keep upgrading your video cards, etc. At least the 360 version has a guaranteed performance, plus I like the controller scheme better.
It makes no sense to buy a new system to play old games. It maybe a good feature to have for the first few months but come on! Who in there right mind would care about the old systems games 3 years into the life cycle of the new console? Yeah maybe 6-7years of the consoles life cycle but not the first 2-3 years.
Sony is stupid and those that would spend $200 more than the over priced high end version of the console is more foolish. Thats why they would never do this in the US because we wouldn't stand for this foolishness. You British people should demand that they lower the price or don't buy it.
