People hoping for a $300 launch price are dreaming. Even the Vita was that much for the 3G model.

I'm expecting a UK price of £350, so a US price of at least $400.

They are milking their key franchises. I dont care if Forza is open-world, most people I know are bored to death with it. What is this, their 4th 360 game? Gears 3 was quality, but even here there...

Absolute rubbish You can tell this is the MS thread - what with them being praised for bringing out sequel after sequel, milking franchises to death. The same goes for GOW 4 too.

But at least Sony...

So we're throwing in Kinect now? Wow.

Most hardcore gamers I know couldn't give a monkeys about Kinect. It's Gears, Forza, Fifa and bit of MW/BF.

There's no way the average selling price of the 360 is higher in the EU. PS3 is like £80 more expensive.

Yep, as discussed before over here in the UK PS3 is nearly £100 more expensive.

Unless the PSN issue causes Sony to have to set aside $1bn, I'm not sure it can be compared to RROD. They might have lost some revenue with the downtime, but nothing on the level that MS has made to...

They will tack it on in many cases imo. As long as it's implemented well like in KZ3, I'm fine with that.

Great news for Sony. 50m in four-in-a-bit years isn't too shabby when you consider the...

It is an expensive machine though. I can see it being a bit of slow-burner - above average sales perhaps for the first year, but potentially very big sales after that.

Software is key obviously,...

I wouldn't say it was totally irrelevant as the definitions are the same for both consoles and worldwide sales seem to be going in Sony's favour (after previously being 6-7m behind).

Yeah the definitions are hard to tie down. I think it just suggests that proportionally less people are gaming on the 360 outside the US. In the UK it still sells, but I wonder if in other countries...

Worldwide PS3 numbers pass 360

I thought that Kinect would have kept 360 above the PS3 a little while longer, but 360 sales outside the US haven't been great apparently.

MS should be working to get some more big games out this...

Absolutely, how is it mediocre? Laa-Yosh is talking like all the COD games are classics! In reality, the last 4 games are all very similar gamers limited in scope but in different settings.

Yes that is another consideration. It seems as though people expect efficient power and heat consumption. I guess the only concern here is price, the 5970 was more than £500 at launch I believe.
