I bet Sony thinks they're rising up because of their "great" games.

Blu-Ray Player. Hah, so true. That's all the PoS3 is anymore. Nobody cares about the games. Also, I realized, the fanboyism insult to the 360 is actually a rhyme. Very clever, I like it.

Xbroke Pleasefixme? Well at least Microsoft is making a profit not like Sony whose PS3 looks like it is flopping bad, the only thing of theirs selling is the PSP.

Wait until March's consoles sales from the release of Brawl. That's interesting that PS3 outsold 360.

I never knew that Sony's blu ray player played games! The 360 is now truly broken now that HDDVD is dead. To me the elite seems like an outrageous rip off compared to the BluRay player. Maybe the rumors that Microsoft purposely wanting HDVDD to fail in favor of PPV digital distribution were true.

The Xbox 360 Elite is a waste of money. You can buy all what the elite has cheaper. And Xbox can't go on Halo for support any more. The game is done, if they make another game of Halo, it'll suck even more.
