Random Insanity

It will be interesting to see who does better in online matches, controller or mouse and keyboard.

@34 "I would explain it myself, but this non-biased tech demo does a more accurate job than anything. Enjoy your pwnage."

Please tell me that was sarcasm... >_>

"If you're planning on buying a new-gen game console based on the HD disc it can play (and the PlayStation 3 is a bargain for a Blu-ray player), the adoption of Total HD discs would make the decision a tad easier (and more game-specific)."

Did anyone else catch the use of "new-gen"?

Wii price cut (bundle without Wii sports) to $200?

From http://p2pnet.net/story/5668:

"Even if true, this does not necessarily mean violent media has created aggressive people. It is more likely that aggressive people are attracted to violent media. Blaming violent media would be like going to the opera, noticing that most people there are rich, and concluding that opera makes people rich. (Classical opera, by the way, is chock full of lust, incest, murder, suicide, and revenge.)"

And a real hardcore Joystiq reader knows that real reading experiences aren't going to be had on a troll's comments.

@11 "Considering that the PS3 launch numbers were so few only Resellers could get their hands on them (like normal people can afford to wait 3 days to get one), its not suprising."

And that's a good thing... how?

"PS3's also went for MUCH MORE than Wii's did. When you see them going for 2500 on ebay and all the major news outlets show it on tv, everyone and their mother will be competing with normal gamers to get a PS3."

So, PS3's will go for more money, when there's more supply and less demand? I think you need a lesson in economics...

"And noone gives a damn about some idiot fanboy talking about how their "non-gaming" friends suddenly want to get a Wii."

So why do you assume someone gives a damn about your story?

"Its worthless as a means of understanding the true demand of the Wii."

Then what is?

"So far from my random sampling of Wii lines, at every sunday laucnh all I see are parents and resellers."

Your opinion is automatically right and his is automatically wrong... why? Also, who else do you expect to wait out in lines? You said yourself that only resellers waited for the PS3...

""its like Nintendo paid the media to be their bitch." Kind of like Sony did?"

Nope, Sony is its own bitch! :D

(think alliwantforchristmasisapsp.com >_> )

@4 "The PS3 market was saturated earlier than the Wii market and the Wii market is more christmas-oriented since it is a kiddie system."

The PS3 market was saturated? With less than 800,000 units sold? How is that a good thing? Wasn't there supposed to a a sky-high demand for PS3's? :\

"i have a brand new nintendo wii with receipt, willing to do an even trade for your 60 gb sony ps3 that you dont want"

A Wii is an even trade for a 60 Gb PS3 "that you don't want"? OMG it's a Nintendo fanboy!!! :P

...but if that's the case, then why does he want a PS3? :\
