Halo will be a more succesful product. You see if a PS3 sells for 500 then it probably cost somehwere around 300 a piece for sony to make. Halo 3 will probably cost 70 bucks and will be like 5 dollars a piece for bungie. If Bungie sells another 13 million copies on release their gonna be rolling in it. I would rather be behind bungies profits then Sony's.


Sony will already losing money for every ps3 they make. All the money is going to the blu ray player, not the hardware.

BTW, I had to buy a PS2 twice so I am boycotting the PS3. (But i am not a fanboy by any means, I just don't want to pay $600 american dollars twice)

Hey, it's made by Bungie. They know what they are making. I don't have to say more than some words:

Hell, yes! It's HALO 3!


XBOX 360 FOR EVER

Point of view:

Comparing a software and a hardware thing seems senseless lol.

1) I have a recently bought PS2 (slim one) so i can try its games lol. Have GoW,Killzone,SoulCalibur3 and NFSU2. Conclusion: maybe fun but I am tired of "Now loading" screens.
2) I have a Xbox (lol). Have Halo 1, Halo 2 and I think this are the kind of games I sure pay for it lol.
3) I have not a Xbox 360 :( . But as someone said before, I will buy one before Halo 3 it's released (Christmas maybe... well surely before lol) or even only to play Halo 3 :D. Does not matter if I have to wait a bit :D.
4) PS3 could be a hypermega-aliencreated-machine but 600 bucks are to much bucks to spend lol.
5) PS3 600$ pack is a console+controller only pack. 600$ is the shame as: 400$xbox premium + 2x 20$play &charge(and 2battery) + a second 45$wireless controller + ¿60$? Halo 3 = 545$ and you have 55$ to spend as you like .... if MS reduced the price or sold the PGR3+live+livepoints packs... imagine lol.

I wanna know what Sony has to offer as an Halo Killer or an Halo similar game to sonyers....

A mythic member but I speak my mind to much.

Sony would kill it self even if HALO 3 was not being release around the same time.

The PS3 is $600
The PS3 games will be priced between $60 - $100
There supply will be spread thin and will be harder to get then the 360 at its launch since the PS3 is very hard to produce.
Their games don't look that great, their only good game in my opinion is Metal Gear Solid 4.
Most of their hit games will also be on the less expensive 360
The Blue Ray is a delicite piece of hard ware and breaks easily
Plus the Speed the Blue Ray can read the disc is slow which means they will be some hour long load screens and laggy game play.
Their Cell chip is risky due to the way it processes information, since it has to sperate all the information, make sence of it then piece it back together, making the system even slower at times.

The system is not going to be a favorite and will not sell well on its own. With HALO 3 being sold at the same time the Sony Play Station 3 will live a shelted existence in the hands of the few people that buy it. And shall go the way of the N GAGE and slowly die.

Some people also say that they have a (only) 20% of success creating the cell chips("perfect" ones) so there are 8 wasted cell processors wasted every time the are "cooking" 10 of them.

Wouldn't be ironic that the Xbox 360 (daughter of Xbox, semi-Daughter of Dreamcast) take out the PS3 (daughter of PS2, murderer of Dreamcast)? lol

Really waiting to see PS3 vs Xbox 360&Halo 3

PS3 will do good in it's own respect. I myself think though that it will not beat 360 because for reasons such as 1) the 360 is orginal 2) PS3 trys to copy everyone else they have nothing new 3)PS3 is way over priced they can't expect to win can they? 4) Well this is more of a opinon Sony sucks.

im not sure, sure id like to say halo 3 will beat it and i dislike sony but hears what i think, the whole reason sony is so popular is partly because alot of nerds love japan, and sony covers like every elctronic device and people see sonys products more than anyone elses, thus they think sony must be beter because theres more of it than anything else, but thats wrong, veryvery wrong, my parents bought a sony camcorder one time that (of course) had the little flip out screen to see what was being filmed, within 3 weeks the flip out screen thing had completely broken and fallen off and messed up the entire camera, sony sucks at making thing with moving parts, and anything for that matter, and that was a really expensive camera, so id love to say yes, but everyone who still thinks sonys products are superior (witch is alot of people) will get a ps3, i on the other hand go with wii60 (i shouldnt have to explain what it means)

ps, sony sucks

pps, the only reason i even lwatched ps3s launch games for a while is to see if mgs 4 will be as good as mgs 3 (witch i hate to say is one of my favorite games) and mgs 4 is going to suck, no picking your own camoflauge it automatically camoflauges you, snakes comitting suicide and raidens coming back as a main playable character when he was the one who made mgs 2 suck, so they ruined the only game i cared about in the ps3, making me hate them even more
