Predictions for PS3 vs 360

Arguing over semantics.

ehh

Widely used as in there is a very large community in every Xbox Live game. Sometimes I wonder if you even used the service for a decent amount of time. You just seem to spew off hate.

The 10% mark was concluded early January of 2005. There aren\'t any new numbers released since the the 360 came out.

edit

Oh, that\'s a great chart there. Comparing the PS2 to a console that just came out and currently has a god damned shortage.

Nice one.

Shortage?  There are 360s sitting on the shelves around here.   If you are looking for one, just order one from Canada, eh?

Canada must be some magical land then because the shortage is still in effect and real. You see, Microsoft enjoys being assholes.

mm, what shortage? You must be joking me. Microsoft didn\'t produce enough consoles to create artificial demand. EB games and Gamestop won\'t have any in stock until all their pre-orders are handled with. They said it should be finished this Month, but they pushed it back again. All the other retailers sell out immediately.

I and some other forumers from Penny Arcade had to use this program just to quickly snatch one up early in the morning.

Doubting this shortage is pretty damned ignorant.

The store that represents all of America.

I had to buy a core from South Jersey. They also had a lot. According to untitlednet, they don\'t exist anymore.

I have yet to see a single CORE system in ANY electronic stores here. There is a shortage.
It\'s the same as when some people saw the PS2 in area\'s and others didn\'t see it for months.

Xbox Live is a success - it is the very thing that other console makers will try and mimic.

Go to Japan. They don\'t seem to have much of a shortage there :p

Funny, both EB and Gamestop have consoles available to order right now on their websites.

I know that. They are only in bundles because they have a limited amount and want to sell it for all its worth. That doesn\'t change the fact that there is a shortage.

Funny huh.

Did you check back the next day? I saw premium and cores at Best Buy one Saturday and that Sunday they were gone. Sure it\'s all anecdotal but they seem to selling as fast as store put them on the shelf.

As far as an artificial shortage, that\'s just crazy. Selling a product is the goal, not frustrating potential customers.

Anyway, I see competition as a good thing no matter who\'s in the game.
