A new Call of Duty has been announced for 2012 and Activision have given some...

If you think about it, the reason why Sony has been losing the console war all along is because they are managing three consoles, not two like Nintendo or one like Microsoft, THREE. True Microsoft has basically destroyed Sony and danced around their grave as some fanboys may say, but Sony has had a lot more going on then any of the competition.
When you look at the current generation it’s easy to say that between Xbox 360 and PS3, Microsoft has left Sony behind in the dust. There is however a little more to Microsoft & Sony’s success than meets the eye. Sony is successfully managing 3 consoles on the market, but if you’ve been keeping up to date with news, one console is about to be dropped from the market. Obviously, this is the PS2; though everyone could foresee this coming. Though it is still too early to decide who’s won the console war, fanboys of Microsoft are rejoicing everywhere claiming victory while they get all their good games near ending the year; whilst, Sony fanboys are fighting back clamoring to a steady line of great games. I’m sure many of you fully understand what I mean here, so I won’t need to specify myself nor do I want too.

Nothing wrong with putting all your eggs into one basket in this instance. Microsoft operate 1 console, and do a damn good job at it.
My opinion anyway...
However, I think that Nintendo is doing a damn good job too.
One main system and a handheld is the way to go.
But yeah, Sony's trying to hard and failing at it...
It pretty obvious why Sony couldn't focus on the PS3 100% earlier in its life, but now they can so its looking good from here on out, now all they have to do is turn a profit and they can start competing properly.
EDIT: this is what I'm talking about: Destroyed? Seriously?
On the other hand you are right. All they need is a profit and then they can deal damage to Microsoft and maybe earn a bigger fanbase.
I couldn't care if he was, white, black, Asian or whatever. How did you get the to the fact I was racist? Like I said in the earlier post, I am coloured myself, I know how bad racism can get.
I don't stoop down to such pitiful levels, so stop trying to bring racism into this. Your the one who is not looking at him as an equal for his skin here, not me.
The author stated their case quite clearly as well as holding a rather neutral message. The message was basically "360 is doing good, the PS3 is behind, but once Sony gets a little focus, it will do much better."
This particular paragraph however could be misleading: Sony has managed to sale a good 255,000 for both the PS3 and PSP just in March 2009 whilst the 360 falls short a mere 52,000 units.
Since Monster Hunter Portable Unite released this month for the PSP. As well as special edition PSPs made for the series' 5th anniversary. When 2G was released last year, it sold about about 80,000 PSPs with it. Wish they'd bring that stuff out here for a change, the Monster Hunter PSPs are awesome.
Which is why Sony still supports supposedly "old" systems, because they are selling. And after all . . . that IS what a company seeks to do!
PSP's been going downhill in a sense, I believe even a Sony rep addressed that? They really should back it up more...I mean, there's nothing they can do against Nintendo's handheld market at this point, many fans are behind that company with good reason, but Sony could still make the PSP look more worthy.
What freaking war? You don't hear people say there's a *insert two team names* war whenever two teams face each other in sport.
The console wars are just a figment of childish idiots imaginations.
Competition? Yes. A war? No.
I don't go around killing people because they like a different console.So there's no damn war.
Definitions four through six all apply. Thus, there is still a war.
The real problem I believe is that the high price of current gen consoles has lead to consumers having to rabidly defend their purchases with their keyboards and blog sites. Both systems hopefully will do well enough to stay in the game, for the sake of the older generation of gamers everywhere. We need to see the PS3 close the sales gap, and then we can continue to have each company keep the other honest. Complete destruction of Sony, no. Xbox currently ahead, yes. The future, still up in the air. And Nintendo will still be laughing all the way to the bank.
That is all.
If so then yes it is Fixied.
Even so, I don't see how $399 is too much. A 360 Elite is about the same, if not more when adding in peripherals.
And the 360 Elite is overpriced and also needs a price cut.
Honestly, price is kinda like weather. It doesn't exactly keep many people from going to the store and buying what they want. If it does, then they don't want it all that much.
A price cut means a actual drop of price for the same product. What your talking about there is a cheaper SKU.
Poli[sic] = many, more than one
tics[sic] = blood-sucking parasites
What does that have to do with this?!
No self-respecting gamer would be caught with a 360 Arcade, due to the lack of all the functionality. When you compare the apples to something closer to an apple(the 360 Pro) price is very comparable, and then you just have to weigh the extra features(the most important in my mind is a rechargeable controller. Damn you MS!!)
