on the ps2 and xbox gamecube etc version you get every team, like 4 leagues of the england, italian first and second, german first and second, swedish, italian both leagues etc. But on the 360 version you only get 1 english league, 1 italian, 1 spanish 1 german 1 french and i believe one dutch. Now you can blatently see they will charge the other leagues as downloads.
fucking ea.

The PS3 is along those same lines. People who buy this rediculasly priced thing are simply telling sony they will pay no matter the price. Oh the controller has to be sent to sony to replace it when the li ion battery dies, because the user cant buy a replacement, oh and there going to charge you for it. You people need to take a serious look at buisness practices and the fact that we are setting a precident as the consumers that is making for a bleak future. |
The real joke about the ps3 is the majority of the cost seems to be on an optical drive format that wasn't really needed "blu-ray". Even the graphics of the ps3 aren't anything special, its a downclocked geforce 7800gtx ffs. At least wit the 360 you're getting a graphics solution that is the first of its kind, and not some old cut down pc graphics core.
As for blu-ray..they've so far got it upto 200gigs. Yup tons of games are gonna make use of that. Regular dvd's are more than enough for games imo.

You can't really say xbox 360 will do a better job for multiplayer...when PS3 hasn't come out yet...and to compare it to the PS2 is wrong cuz well...this is a shit load different

Coma, shooting themselves in the foot? Yeah, that's why (as Pyro said) Sony has had the better overal system for the last two generations.
Pyro, perfect record? I recall many people having hardware problems with their PS2s. And naturally, it's online features were total shit compared to those of the X-Box.

I meant in regards to the PS3. There seem to have been quite a few misteps for them here.

Nintendo was also up 2-0 with the most popular system, nes then snes, in fact theyre the only other company thats had 2 big hit home consoles in a row, no company has had 3 yet, and with the competition the ps3 has, sony aren't gonna acheive it either.
