I don't know how the availability is at this moment? And you also have to keep in mind that the Playstation 3 hasn't been released in Europe, Australia and Singapore. Although I doubt that's making the difference at the moment.

That reminds me of something rather entertaining.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There's some *cough*scam*cough* competitions going on to win a PS3 (here in AUS). And I'm like... "even if you do win... what's it going to do for 3 months?" you're just getting the PS3, no games.. nothing. And since it's not available here yet... what the hell is the point? :uhh:

it's a multi-question quiz done via sms. hence the "*cough*scam*cough*" bit because the rates are insane, and the chances of you winning are almost non-existant. the questions are so obvious it would make baby jesus cry - Play Station is a trade mark of a) Sony B) Apple :uhh:

I also heard XBOX Live owns.
Of course! :P

 

 

 

How would you like downloading new demo's for games that you can play all you want. Kicking back, and watching Beerfest (which I just downloaded, very funny movie! :P .) Buying arcade games online, without leaving your room, or joining with all your friends in a game of GoW to curb stomp the competition? Trust me, it's a blast.

 

 

 

Not trying to hit down Sony again, but the PS3 live does nothing of yet, except for 1-2 games. Sony's all hardware, not software. It's a wonderful piece of hardware, and brilliant... but it's just not worth it when there's stuff like the 360 and the Wii on the market.

:lol: This made me laugh. The PS3 had a year extra to improve on every part of their system, and games, and everything else! You make it sound as if they were at a dissadvantage here, instead of an advantage. It was their fault they lied about the progress they where making in the PS3 while it was being built!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But you want to know why they are cutting the costs? They have to keep there good name, and they have to look like they are out to keep it. A company as large as Sony can handle the falure of the PS3, but the most important thing for them now is not to lose their reputation. If they lose their reputation, then I don't know if they can recover.

Keeping their "good name" in the eyes of gamers is going to be a very long uphil struggle. For the average joe consumer, wont be a problem. They wouldn't have a clue about the kind of trash Sony was pulling out of their [wagon] for the last year or so.

I don't feel sorry for Sony at all. Their announced delay "coincidentally" one month after Christmas was ridiculous.
Why would they want to wait until after Xmas on purpose?

Because if people think the PS3 is going to come out in the new year, they won't buy other consoles for Christmas. If they knew beforehand that there was going to be a delay (a 9 month delay), many people would say "screw PS3" and go for the other console for Christmas.

Yea 360 was out in November and selling like pretty good. Sony stated "the PS3 is coming out in three months" so most people didn't ask their parents to but a 360 for xmas since they all wanted the ps3 and most families can't buy 2 consoles in half a year. Christmas came and gone then Sony says "Ha, fooled you! It's coming out in November, not February! Lol :P " That was a [puncture] thing to do, plain and simple. Deceiving their fans and stockholders just to try and prevent some people from buying a 360.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So the kids that told their parents not to buy a 360 for Xmas '05 were out a console for another year. This happened to my neighbor, but he ended up asking/getting for Wii for Xmas '06 so Sony's play sorta backfired.

they should rip that blue ray player out there

 

 

 

blue ray inst much better than an hdmi progressive scan dvd player on an hdtv anyways

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

if they rip that thing out and bam! price will got down to 360 range and maybe more people will buy it

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

also they should slow it down a little so people don't burn down there house form the heat

That's always a plus.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Darkrick: I'd say Blu-Ray sales are dominating now after the numbers by release by Amazon, Dvdempire, and Nielson/Videoscan of Home Media Magazine.

They aren't dominating DVD which is what really needs to happen to win a format war ;)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Actually, I just read the other day that Blue-Ray and HD-DVD are neck-in-neck in the whole format war thing. Normal DVD's are like $30 so of course they're going to win out for a looong time. :lol:

The popularity of any given religion today depends on the victories of the wars they fought in the past.

That is a very misleading title. It was only surpassing it for the two weeks from January 1st to January 14th.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HD-DVD still has sold more than Blu-ray.
