My thoughts?
This is good news. It means that they've pinpointed the problem and are fixing it. I still hope I survive unscathed.

They must be getting SWAMPED with calls right now from customers who paid for repairs and are enquiring about refunds. I've been on hold for about 15 minutes. I guess I should try to call back later tonight

A BILLION dollars to resolve these issues.
I guess PS3's delay wasn't really such a bad thing after all... ![]() Late.

Wii's sucess has really crushed sonys hopes of making any sort of money soon from the PS3....its only a question of how many losses continue to compile for sony's gaming division. Thankfully for them sales in all other regions of business for them improved.

I have a PS2 because I needed a reason to stop going to bars. Over the years I've gotten more than my money's worth of entertainment out of the PS2 when you consider how much more dangerous and honestly expensive a habit of hitting the bars five to six days and/or nights a week. So yeah. I can give my PS2 to my kids and they can just enjoy that shit in the living room while I'm in my finished basement blowing shit up on my PS3. I still haven't really made a decision though. I think I may rent one of each from like Rent A Center or something for a couple of months at a time. I'm just going to leave it to the one that's better for me. I'm looking for more than just games and gameplay though. These consoles certainly are a large step up in pricepoint, and for that I'd think more than just games should be a part of the package. For fuck's sake, PSP has about five or six functions, as does the iPhone. I've got to see what's the best overall package. However it's mainly your issues with 360 and the fact that so many other people have similar issues to the point where it's costing MS over a B. Fo real. Avg 360 retail price? $399?? Divide a 399 dollars into a billion. You get 2,506,265 So 2.5 Million units worth of repairs? Out of 12 or 13 Million users? And if you take into account the fact that MS is prolly taking a loss of some sort on the price of the console itself and thereby that number's not totally accurate, then fine. The number's still astronomical and greater than 15% and actually probably closer to 20%. This is a serious issue, and there's no true promise that it will get better. It's hard to picture it getting worse but R & D is not easy, nor is it necessarily expedient. The issue could be resolved in which case MS eats the billion, swallows hard and moves on, however it's effect could linger. I'm not Malcolm Forbes or Steve Jobs or anything, and again I haven't cemented my decision, nor have I made it. It just looks like a potential hassle that I don't want to involve myself with at this point. I don't want to go a month without a console... ![]() ![]() ![]() Late.

For me, the games make the headaches all worth it. I've had my Xbox for a year and a half. and in that time I have accumulated 15 retail games, as well as several downloadable arcade games. The games make the console, and Xbox 360's library is top notch and is only getting better. In the next five and a half months, there are about eight games that are on my wish list. That's insane for less than half of a year ![]() I'm not even being biased when I say that I see no games really for the PS3 that would make me want to buy it. I've never been into RPGs, so the Final Fantasy series is out. Stealth games are cool, Xbox has that covered with the Splinter Cell series, so MGS is out. GTA is multiplatform and Take-Two/R* has a contract with MS for exclusive downloadable episodic content, so no reason to get it for PS3. If PS3 had games that I was interested in, I would get one (if I had the money), but right now there aren't enough games to justify the purchase. For everything that the PS3 includes, it'll be worth the $600 pricetag once it gets the games. So yeah, it all comes down to games. The 360 has them right now ![]() |

I think I'm really gonna rent all three before seriously making up my mind.
I hear Madden for PS3 sucks...and I heard that on the PS3 Madden board... ![]() Games certainly are a big part of it, too. PS3 hasn't had the glut of games that 360 has had. I'm thinking that could have something to do with not being "out" nearly as long. I could be wrong. But PS3 will have God Of War 3. And after playing the first two, I HAVE to play that game. I have a feeling it's going to end with the main character, Kratos destroying existence itself. I dunno, but it's going to be badass, and it's going to own, and I'm going to need to get a piece of it... ![]() I dunno. It's still a ways away. And I still have to play all of them before I decide. Either way, I'll get a good console, as long as I don't become one of the 20 percenters... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Late.
