Thats good news i think.
PS3 seems to be lacking games... I dont think its going to last very long if it doesnt hurry up soon.
I think 360 will end up winning this battle of consoles this generation.
People will get tired of the Wii. I already know people who sold/trade-in'd there wii to get a 360.

I found an RSS feed that sent a message to my machine whenever any of about 10 online stores had the WII in stock. I set it to poll every 2 minutes. Took about 1/2 day before I got a message the WII was available at a site and I bought one before they were all sold out.

The 360 is running a distant 3rd right now. As soon as the other game platforms come up with a WII like controller, the WII will likely lose some market share.

I'm happy with my 360, I can do everything I want to do with it, plus with tversity I can use it as a homebrew media extender. I only play for a couple of hours a week (if that) anyway, so couldn't justify a PS3 anyway.

Watch the 360 price drop that's got to be coming...

yea, Sony basically priced themselves out of the competition. Wii is half the price of the PS3 but it is out selling the PS3 6:1. I don't think the $100 price cut will help much being that the "equivalent" system Xbox 360 is stealing exclusive games left and right...

What is the PS3's platform title by the way? I thought it was GTA4 but that's a 360 game now... MGS? When is that going to come?
