Hmmm... the Sony defenders only talk shit about the rest of the field these days. Even they can't find the heart to defend their choice.

Must be rough riding in a sinking ship.

Geesh, I'm not sure I wanted Sony to get slaughtered this badly. Competition makes this industry better.


I do wonder why would anyone buy a PS3 now when it's clear that Sony will a) lower the price soon and b) bundle rumble-enabled controllers with the systems. Comments from Sony have made it pretty clear that, now that the Immersion deal has been settled, we'll be seing a totally different SIXAXIS controller soon.

I actually think a colander full of swiss cheese would hold the cheese in pretty well.

Ludwig, no one reads these hershey-squirts-of-thy-keyboard anymore.

And the dead link confirms it...

ummmm.... joystiq... you might want to do your homework. The "timed" exclusive MGS4 thing is for real.

Much as I hate Microsoft, this is really going to win some sales for them.

But wasn't the MGS4 news posted on March 31st?

I think most well-informed folks know the PS3 isn't worth their cash by now. Let's leave these stories alone and let the less-informed waste their money. You know.. just for the entertainment factor as we watch the Sony ship sink.

Downloadable games are not awful, but Blu-Ray storage was a huge selling point for the PS3. To have one of the flagship titles not even use that feature is pretty lame, and reinforces the idea that the PS3 is just a trojan horse for Blu-Ray movies.

I love how Joel comes out and proves his gaming noobness by saying the Japan numbers don't mean anything.
