Re: Sony kills 20GB Playstation 3
 

[QUOTE=BigSKINBauer;326153]thanks a lot for the breakdown. That is really helpful. My cousin has both PS3 and 360 it seems like he has been only playing his 360 since he got it. He got the PS3 first. I think the blu-ray player is the only thing that has me going for the PS3 right now but thats not why i am buying the system. I think that i am leaning toward the 360 right now. I never got a ps2 and always was an xbox guy. Xbox live was the greatest thing in the world when i got my xbox and i am sure it has kept evolving. I wish the 360 elite was just at 400 and i would probably get one for sure.

Any news on whether the price may drop anytime soon for the 360? A ps3 price drop seemed to be comming for sometime now.[/QUOTE]

np man. well there is a chance Microsoft will make an announcement about pricing during their E3 conference tomorrow night, but nothing is certain since they also have their own gaming conference set for september around the time Halo 3 comes out. I think one will happen during one or the other, but my money might be on it happening in september cuz it would coincide with the Halo 3 launch and they will also be able to see how the PS3 sales change over a couple months and give themselves a better idea about how much they need to shave off each unit. Xbox live is even more amazing now with the ability to download movies, tv shows, additional content, video chat, downloadable demos, xbox live arcade, and come this holiday season a TiVo type feature.
and matty, how u enjoying COD 2? that's a game I will never trade in, but I can't freakin wait for COD 4 Modern Combat.

PLEASE OH PLEASE this would steal PS3's price drop thunder too.


What is this "falcon" business? I really don't want another one to get. I am not going to get core or the regular. I am going to get the elite if i get one but why have another variation. I would be getting pissed if i had got one earlier and on top of that it broke and i got another one or something before the warranty extension

Re: Sony kills 20GB Playstation 3
 

If the elite drops I will sell my premimum package and get the elite.

Really though, why would anyone trust to buy something from MS at first release after all this. The glitches took a long time to fix and on top of that they released the elite inbetween. I mean, they sort of have a responsibility to the customer to provide products that don't break. Whatever, sucks for a lot of people though. The PS3 coming out with the 80GB version now. I mean, that is why the wii is so cool. It just does its thing.

But regardless i'll be happy with a price cut. They falcon should replace the elites and shouldn't cost more. That would be bad. I'll even wait for the falcon.

Re: Sony kills 20GB Playstation 3
 

[quote=Mattyk72;326150]exactly, so what's up with the brand loyalty?[/quote]

I have brand loyalty to Sony as well. My first good system was the Sony Playstation and the games on that were amazing. For quite sometime nothing could compete. And although the N64 came out later and had some good games like Golden Eye, Mario Party, etc I still just preferred my PS. I have never bought an Xbox or a 360, just sticking with my PS2. That doesn't mean I dont like the 360, I think it is a great system and I actually might buy it when the prices drop, but as of now I am comfortable and content with my PS2.
