BrianK was challenging you on your statement that girls would not be interested in such games. If your fictitious daughter would not be interested because of her sex according to you, how would you even have the opportunity to have to make a parental decision to step in to forbid the little girl from such games?

No it regards game preferences
Games are games. If people enjoy them they buy them no matter the age group.

Again why the sexism? Neither my son nor daughter will play KZ2 or Halo when they are 6.

We already agreed the PS3 did not receive a cut on entry pricing last year. It might this year
Are you coming around to the position that the PS3 needs a price cut to gain momentum over the competition?

For example one little move of the console and you got a deep carved circle on your game disc.
RtFM. It actually says do not shift the console from horizontal to vertical without turning it off.

The bigger question is, why is Killzone 2 not spiking the PS3 console numbers more
Many ripped on Halo Wars because it was not a FPS and therefore wouldn't sell. Yet it beat KZ2 to 1 million. IMO I think KZ2 will sell more overall. But, it certainly didn't burn up the charts. Whereas Halo Wars is the best selling rts of this generation.

What is a windfall is the people who will bite at $199 for an awesome system like the 360 but will not spend $400 on a PS3, especially in this economy.
I agree do you want a PS3 or a 360 + 5 games? Sales figures say the later option is more popular.

Quote:
How many hours do you spend crafting numbers
Do note it's important what was left out. PS3 is selling worse than the PS2 during the same timeframe. Wii is selling better than the Gamecube. 360 is selling better than the Xbox. 2 companies have improved their position from last gen. 1 company has lowered their position from last gen.
