You can see the article i found there which is rather interesting.

Craziness!

I've been completely out of the video game loop for a long while now. Whatever happened to the PS3? Most of the people that I know have Wii, xBox, 360, or PS2, but none of them have PS3. Did it suck or what happened? ('_' ) ??

Costs too much to justify the current number of quality games for a lot of people. Plain and simple. It'll pick up eventually.

199 is still the magic number in the games business.

I want a 360 before I get a Wii, but I cannot get a 360 until they deal with the quality issues.

Until then I'll just be buying all the used games I never got to play over the last few years when I didn't have time to play video games.

i dunno... the PS3 is currently my favorite... personally i think the Wii has an even poorer selection of games, mine has been collecting dust for a while now

Attach rates and units sold are two entirely different things. Although, I fully agree with you. In fact I sold my Wii for $450.

I'm gonna be picking up a 360 sooner or later. once I get a few more paychecks. I have the money now but I'm cheap.

Are you gonna get the elite or just the premium?

Mine hasn't seen game action for about a month when I picked up Twilight Princess again. I'm really pissed that I bought a Wii so soon. I knew there'd be almost no good games for it during its first year of life. That's why I'm planning on getting a 360 Elite or PS3 pretty soon. I just can't decide which I want first.

[punroc1]

Go route of 360 cuz there are a few more games than that of the PS3 even though the ps3 as got some what look to be good games coming on the way.

Eg: Ratchet and Clank. and MSG4.

uhh idk. I have enough for the elite so I've been thinking about that. I mean, since I don't have one already i guess getting the Elite would make sense, although it's quite a bit more.

I'll get back to you after I get back from walmart sooner or later.

I know walmart i supposed to be cheap but dear god dont buy from there they have such bad service in the video game section.

I waited to 2 hours to try and get condemned criminal origins but the wrong person to get the game was being sent each time and i eventually didnt get it so they got horrible service man.

walmart has terrible service period.

while trying to see if they had 28days later on dvd, the guy kept on assuring me that it was out in theatres and not on dvd.

he refused to belive me that he was thinking of the sequel that was in theatres and kept telling me that i was talking about the sandra bullock movie 28days.

all the while staring at the girl i was withs boobs and creeped her the fuck out.

[Gundampilotspaz]

I wonder if the xboxs sales numbers include the second and third units people recieved when theirs broke.

-shrugs- it's the closest place from my house. Personally, I've never been subject to their craptacular service thankfully. I just get lucky every time I'm there.

I would rather go to an EB or GameStop but the closest one to my house is in Hamden and I dont feel like driving all the there. lol

No probably not.

Because those are replacements not new units that people bought.

Alright whatever i could understand that reasoning.

Go with a newer model Pro (the ones that have HDMI).

Unless you plan on renting movies and buying a lot of shows, want to play FFXI, and want just about every single game on XBLA now, you don't need the extra space.

true. Plus it's easier on my wallet isn't it?

[J-Stop]

true. Plus it's easier on my wallet isn't it?

$100 easier. Which could be used to buy a retail game and enough MS points to get a few XBLA titles.

Ya but not by much when it comes to video games and the systems.

Not $100 cheaper.

You have convinced me kind sir. I just find it weird how Walmart calls it the Xbox 360 Premium and GameStop Calls it the Pro. Confused me for a second there.

It's the same price at both stores. Actually, I could just order it online and not go anywhere. just gotta find out which has cheaper shipping.

Now thats the spirit for the ultimate lazy person.

And no problem.
