Who will wait out for the game reviews before they buy a game? I am just gonna chill out and play Halo 2 for awhile on the 360 until the reviews are up. I am kinda thinking If don't wait for the reviews i'm gonna buy a game that will flop.dstunt504

Nintendo has done this 2 times now. The game boy advance SP came out and sold very little because nobody wanted to buy it a SECOND time. Now the ds has the new, "Ds lite" and the same thing will happen. Only the hardcorest fans of DS will buy it, and there are very few...

Nintendo really doesn't know how to sell worth crap. You can't just come out with the SAME exact handheld, make it look a little different and expect it to sell...

Go look at that poll on the Gamespot home page. The majority of the people voted the Ds Lite, "Indifferent".

No one will buy this thing... No one.

[QUOTE="markiemarkie231"]Why the PC version owns it First it only costs $40 bucks on the PC and shotty MP in the X360 version and it deletes saved games LMAO "but...but it's not rushed"-Lemming's helbent_revenge

(no offense) because some of us dont have uber PC's and are more into the habit of using controllers instead of keyboards and (mice?), just a way we like it

also on the PC for $40 so why bother with getting a 360 to just play that game.chairguru22

ever since PS3 was officially announced Sony has been behind closed doors trying desperately to scrap whatever they can. At E3 last year, the one prototype of Sony's Playstation 3 was a 3,000 dollar individual unit. The biggest prices were due to the prototype blue ray dvd which now costs 1,800 alone (less in mass quantities, but not less than 1,00 each), the $200 radio board and most of all, a state of the art still prototype cell processor costing about 3,000 dollars on its own. I.E. PS3 will not be cheap despite the rumors that it will cost $400 dollars. Given that, Sony can get price breaks, so you won't end up skipping college to pay for your PS3. However, the price tag WILL be over $500 dollars if not that price exactly. Combined with an increased price for videogames ($66 with tax), you will be getting into the $600 range just for the console and one game. Bundled with 2 games and a controller, the price jacks up to $750 and up. I am a fanboy, but all that aside, Xbox 360 is very pricey. Whenever a console bundle gets up to $2000 dollars with under ten games, then you know something is expensive in a big way. That being said, $400 dollars for a premium is still at a minimum $100 less then the basic PS3 model stripped down to the core. WIll super prices effect PS3 sales?

high prcies werent the problem with the xbox 360. Ps3 will always have its core audience that will buy its super console no matter how much overtime they must endure to get one. But the question is all about the casual gamers who want a console for $300 bucks and a copy of the newest madden every year, nothing more. PS2 was first and it was cheaper then the xbox. I think casual gamers who just wanna play games for fun and only once in a while will be more attracted to what doesnt brake their bank, not what would put them in bankruptcy. Will casual gamers abandon the Sony empire? you decide...
