Re: The PlayStation 3 outsold the Xbox 360 in the U.S. in the first five months of 2008 after trailing Microsoft's console in 2007.

When standalone BD players hit $200 bucks this christmas lets see how many PS3s actually get sold. I imagine not as many as the 360.

As a matter of fact, I used the special features on the HD DVD's, and still use them on my DVD's.

LOL! DVDs don't even have 2.0 features! What the hell are you smoking?

I never said people don't use bonus features. I said they don't use 2.0 features. The ones with Internet connectivity. Sheesh.

Yes internet features never came into the equasion with dvd, and the online extras on hd-dvd were used by a teeny weeny wickle ammount of people, and to be honest were not worth jack shit
i could'nt give two monkeys about profile 2.0, only that the films and the making of docs work, neither do i give a crap about pic in pic( have had that feature on tv's and vcr's for years without ever using it, other than to see what it looked like ).

I know that smart ass!!! I was referring to the special features on a DVD, and did not imply that they were 2.0. So what the F*** are you smoking...

Then why did you make such a ridiculous comment? I was specifically saying that nobody really uses the Internet connectivity features, and then you post a remark in a tone that was correcting my statement.

If you have a 1.1 compliant player, you can play everything except the BD-Live stuff. And from reports, BD-Live isn't all it's cracked up to be. It's dreadfully slow, the content is lacking because studios can't figure out what to do with it right now, and so on.

Because you know full well that DVD isn't 2.0 or internet ready but you suggested it by my comment. I guess, I should have added better punctuation to all of my comments for now on! I was making a statment that I do watch special features, internet connective or not. Not all of them are great, but still give them a shot. 2.0 may not be the that great right now, but may be in the future. If they don't were still stuck in that interactless media, that we have been for the last 20 or so years... The interface is there, lets use it!

Actually PS3 outsold the Xbox 3 out of the 5 months and with the release of MGS4.. Duh it will sell very well in June. It actually outsold Xbox in June with the new NPD numbers out.
I don't think Sony is doing handsprings at this moment because I think they expected to be doing a lot better with the Blu Ray addition to their machine, and third place is not looking good for them.

Consoles are one part of the numbers to be watching, the other is software. This is where PS3 is seriously lacking in sales and rentals, add the sputtering take off of Blu ray movies, and it is no wonder Square decided to make FF13 on both consoles and not PS3 exclusive anymore.

well i think the fact that sony released metal gear last month had to do with the large number of sales for the ps3, i know alot of people who were waiting for that game to get a ps3, i wouldnt wave any white flags if i were microsoft just yet. but sony really had its best month of the year last month, but still couldnt beat the wii who sold 666,000 systems last month

PS3's best month is less than Wii's worst month.
Xbox's best month is less than Wii's worst month.

No wonder why Microsoft is looking at some of Wii's features and trying to copy them (motion sensor controllers).

Did you guys hear about the new 80gb PS3s coming out with no BC? Thats Sony for ya.
