Hmm I know this post has nothing to do with GTAIV but guess what 360 is going to be better then PS3′s versions.

Lets not forget that these consoles are primarily about gaming, and the only console with the 7 game attachment rate as well as the highest average review score is the XBOX 360.(Out of the top 5 console games of the year, 3 were only available on the 360…. Halo 3, Bioshock and Mass Effect (Really I should throw The Orange Box on this list as well since the EA Port was barely playable on the PS3.) The PS3 and the Wii dont even come close to the caliber or quality of games the 360 has… It’s not about graphics, its about gameplay. The Wii proved that and the 360 has perfected it.

The only reason Sony is matching Microsofts hardware sales is because Sony is more popular in Europe and Japan. In the US, the xbox kills the PS3 because American consumers are not afraid to buy an American product. Much like our American cars, US companies dont sell well overseas. Japan is a lost cause, but if Microsoft can concentrate on winning in Europe, than they can secure their 2nd place lead…..

Either way, its a giant win for Nintendo and Microsoft because Sony’s domination of the console market was near 70% with the PS2. With the PS3, they will be lucky to see 25%. Thats a huge drop! Whereas Microsofts and Nintendos % have gone way up since their last generation hardware #’s.

and if sony was making money on the ps3 then why would they have to hike software costs?

and doesn’t it make sense that sce has high profits? they make money off the ps2 and psp, they don’t make anything off the ps3, they lose money on it. microsofts gaming division on the other hand only has the 360 to profit off of.

It’s fact. Read the post you’re replying to.

It compares Sony/Microsoft’s official figures.

@Hans

Without facts it’s fiction. That’s the problem here with ya. You spout crap out likes it the truth just as with Fox News. Now if you would concentrate on just the Sony side of things and not hate on the other’s and give them a fair shake, maybe that would garner more journalistic integrity on your behalf. Since you don’t do that here and many forum posters do and provide the FACTS or at least some form of reference it just makes you look pathetic. Also if this site claims Sony needs defending against the media then they must be doing something wrong in your head(s), and if they where not doing anything wrong then Sony wouldn’t need defending now would they?
