peterson 0 Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Funny. Sony seem to be doing everything wrong right now - almost seems like self-destruct mode! Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 not bad. Link to post Share on other sites
kkk 7 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I wonder if Sony really are in trouble with PS3 or from when it is released it will just become as popular as PS2. Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Surely it will have the 'sequel effect' where the last one was good so everyone goes to see the new one. if the new one is crap, noone goes to the following one. thus my hypothesis is that it will be crap, but people will buy it anyway. then when PS4 comes out it dives along with Sony who are a awful company that I dislike.

BagOfCrisps 24 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I dunno I think the PS3 might piss on the Wee. Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted September 3, 2006 Author Share Posted September 3, 2006 The top 10 games in Japan last week were ALL for the DS. They must have sold double figure millions of them by now. Check out this vid, lots of racing replays - all together. Nice http://kotaku.com/gaming/racing/the-best-video-on-kotaku-ever-is-this-trackmania-one-198301.php Link to post Share on other sites
NutteyCubey 0 Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Wow that is well made. Freeky. It really will be interesting to see how the PS3 fares in the next generation. As has been said they do seem to be putting their foot in it on so many fronts. It will be a real test of the brand. Link to post Share on other sites
metroid256 0 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 This is waiting http://www.thisiswaiting.com/ Some people are so creative. Sonys strategy, if they have one, is incredible. I bet it will still sell zillions though. Link to post Share on other sites
lin 0 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Apparently that this is waiting font is an official one they are going to use. Very poor. Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted September 16, 2006 Author Share Posted September 16, 2006 Wiii is going to be $250. PS3 over double the price, wow. Link to post Share on other sites
NisekoPancakes 0 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I saw a vid about that new Wii thing. Are most people going to want to be moving around with a controller like seems to be the main thing about this thing. Looks like a big gimmick to me that will quickly get old.

klingon 10 Posted September 23, 2006 Author Share Posted September 23, 2006 PS3 got a price drop before it was even released. Went today to the TGS, some awesome stuff on show. Need a bit of a rest now will post some impressions some other time. Link to post Share on other sites

bobby12 0 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 the Wii is much weaker in terms of hardware, its like a 1ghz processor. but that controller looks nice and it will ship with new Zelda. Im trying to decide whether to get an XBOX 360 or a PS3 now. they are basically the same price and almost identical specs. But PS3 will have better games... Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted October 30, 2006 Author Share Posted October 30, 2006 Anyone pre-ordered a ps3? Seems nowhere is accepting any more now. They are even selling "IOU"s - we'll send you your console later on! Link to post Share on other sites

Prob with Xbox in Japan is they get Fackall for games here eh? Think my next system will be a PS3 or a Wii - Ewok seems to be a fan of Nintendo Link to post Share on other sites
NutteyCubey 0 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 You'll be lucky if you can get one this side of new year: After seeing their precious PlayStation 3 launch number ravaged by component shortages and manufacturing woes, we thought our Japanese neighbors could finally feel confident in the paltry 100k share they'd been promised by Sony last month, but it looks like they've been betrayed once again. Turns out that Sony will only have 80k of the elusive PS3s prepped by the November 11th for the Japanese launch, due to another component woe. With pretty much every available pre-order slot in the country already snapped up by next-gen hopefuls, and even some of those orders on the fritz, it looks like the best chance you'll have to get the console in The Land of the Rising Sun next month will be to line up outside a non-pre-order retailer and hope for the best.

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Im not that into them to be one of the first ones to buy it. Usually wait till that first price drop, or second, or third Link to post Share on other sites
NutteyCubey 0 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Me too. Though maybe not the price drop that usually takes a while. The first batches often has things wrong with it. Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 yeah, ill give it as long as it takes and see what kinda games get released with them as well. Either of those would fair better than the 360 here id imagine. Unless somebody here can *ahem* modify the chip for me? Link to post Share on other sites
nagoid 4 Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 My friend has a PS3 on order and claims he will be getting it on launchday. So I'll take a look at that then. Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 Sure it's nt just an IOU? Would like to see it myself. Considering it is launching very soon I don't see much buzz about it. Then again, if they only have 12 consoles before 2007.... Link to post Share on other sites
