Re: if anyone cares

as I have said before, all I know is what I've been told when questioning a sony rep. Also the blu-ray technology will be available sometime in march, and I can't see sony letting microsoft, as well as others, get a head start on sony's pride and joy.

Re: if anyone cares

seriously

MS is saying within industry standard 3-5%.

what would you expect them to say?

thats the same thing that sony said about the ps2 consoles that were having laser problems. and we all know that was a lie, because sony later admitted that the problems were more significant than earlier stated. Microsoft will do the same once they get a handle on the situation and more products out for consumers to buy. Let's face it, microsoft was not ready to launch the 360.

I love it! Let's ignore the facts and go with opinion. Let me guess, the world is really flat?

BTW: No Xbox 360 problems on my end.

Re: if anyone cares

They should delay to make sure they get it right unlike the PS2 and 25% of the 360s,even then I still wouldn't buy one at launch.

What patch of thin blue air did you pull that one out of?

Re: if anyone cares

I understand, but it still looks like a pretty good lineup of games. I'll try to reserve one early, if for no other reason then to make a couple of hundred (I'm not in to EXCESSIVE price gouging) by selling it.

I'm 100% sure it will be here before 2007. 80% sure it'll be here before July. I'm thinking about a May release (worldwide), or maybe a early April Japan release.

And if Final Fantasy XIII and Metal Gear Solid 4 make it as launch games I'm gettin this sh*t fa show. One thing I wonder though. Will these games utilize Blu Ray's disc space? Final Fantasy usually gives alot of hours of playtime, I wonder will they make the game any longer? Don't mean to stray off topic, but I'm just excited.

I am not here knocking microsoft nor the 360. I have a ps2, xbox, and gamecube.

I am just saying that I believe that there are more console problems then microsoft is saying. I mean, all you have to do is look at the forums here. There is a topic sticky for just solely xbox 360 problems.

And before you call me a fanboy of sony let me say this, I expect sony to have some problems as well with their launch consoles as well.

you do realize that people lie don't you?

Re: if anyone cares

yes i do... look at the thread that i started "more 360 delays". It states that microsoft knew that they would run into shortages, but still decided to have stores take tons of pre-orders... that in my opinion is bad business.

you do realize that companies will not tell the whole truth to keep their reputation up don't you. Sony did it in 2000 and microsoft is doing it now.

Re: if anyone cares

Uhh people that launch "list" isn't real. So don't go thinking it is.

I think you are believing what you want here.

just because an EB game employee (my example) said that it was MS's fault does not make it true.

My understanding of what went down there leads me to believe that your source is wrong or at least misinformed.

Re: if anyone cares

PS3 won't be out in spring. If it was then all the game stores would be really pushing preorders now. The earliest it'll be out is probably September or so of 2006, that's if it even comes out in 2006.

that article about microsoft talking about why they are not sending out 360's came from an article off of gameshout.com which in turn was posted from microsoft's website.

i am believing what I am reading from microsoft themself. if i can't believe them, then who do i believe?
