Yeah. Sony is making a killing in Europe. Which is where this info comes from in the vid.

Wow.... After seeing that video I feel like a changed man.... ;)
Maybe next time they should stick to powerpoint.... 3rd graders can come up with a more compelling presentation....
After some of the other information I have seen posted concerning PS3 facts I will stick to what I read and experienced myself....
Just posting this as I dislike crappy videos made by people who feel as though they are more "informed" than others.... When they are exactly the same as the fanboys they trash....
Same crappy vids can be found pro xbox:

and Wii
http://youtube.com/watch?v=yTkoKfkgBQc
All of them contain the same info, just slanted different ways....
Just my lil' rant :)

Yup. Truthful video. At least they spent more time getting their facts straight than making a flashy video. Name me one thing on the video that is not true.

i guess the same can be said about the 2 vids Soccer posted.
Im all for talk on other consoles, but this is an Xbox site, and some people will defend the Xbox till they die whether it is true or not. There are facts on both parties that are true.... but I wouldnt call something on YouTube 100% fact. Give me an actual fact sheet. Holds a little more weight.
As of right now... and this is a give or take...

If anyone deserves bragging rights... give it to the Wii. I still have yet to see a Wii console on the shelf, and its been out how long?

Guess the easiest thing to name, and the thing that matters most to myself is multiplayer....
Got my first 2 years for $30 each (easy to find such deals at places like Sears and such that dont normally sale XBL.... Since I have paid $50..... $50..... not $70....
Besides after the other link you posted, I have a tendency to believe much of the stuff you find is slightly biased....
Case in point:

I don't really mind, although it does amaze me that some people actually believe believe everything they see and hear..... Why not post some loose change links while you are at it ;)
( I love ya looney, but I hate the fanboy youtube vids and biased web articles :P... Forgive me for my diatribe ;)....)

^ is why I rarely post anything related to news or articles..... Many are from the perspective of the author and take little to no perspectives from the competition :)

I can understand why posts such as this are reacted to in this manner, I am the lone PS3 owner that does not have a 360 on a Live site.
There are many threads here that members post that are anti-PS3 or at least jump at the chance to post any and all negative PS3 news. That is the nature of the beast, this being a site with Xbox Live members.
I am like a Honda owner going to a Toyota site posting pro Honda news. I have stayed here because of friendships but have had to cut down on my activity considerably. It's difficult as a PS3 owner to read negative threads and remaks about the PS3 but again this being the site it is (and a great one at that) that is going to happen. I hope some of you can understand where I'm coming from on this.

I do its hard when you love both consoles as well,to sometimes just not say anything.

I dont know exactly how I have bashed the PS3 in your previous postings (I said I did not enjoy a game or 2 but that is matter of opinion and your postings on the quality of the 360 is no different imo)
So I dont exactly understand what manner you speak of, I wouldn't take any pro youtube link seriously unless it was industry related.... I am an equal opportunity critic personally and I dont see how you could feel that the postings before this were anything other than my own opinion (which to anyone other than myself is worthless)
Post all you want about PS3 and the dirt you can find on the 360, I dont mind.... I just post a reply when I don't consider the source all too credible... Sorry if you feel that my postings represent an attack on you, but personally I have nothing but respect for you in continuing to stick around and post... I just dont have to constantly agree with you at the same time my friend ;)....
Ill try and keep my tongue in check from now on :P

Hey buddy don't keep your tongue in your cheeck as along as you don't stick it in mine. :p :eek:
My apologies for singling you out as that was not my intention at all. I was speaking in general. Look guys, I'm the outcast here. None of you have to apologize to me about anything.
I wish I could find a Sony site with great members like all of you. Maybe because Live is so much better than PSN that is mirrored here at XLN and that's the reason there is are no PS3 sites anything like this. My being accepted here as a PS3 owner and the fact that I'm treated so well here speaks volumes about how great all of you are.
