Any more of those "no PS3 for 3 years" contracts floating around?

I'd have taken that in a second, then hooked my 360 in the monitor and play Gears til my eyes started to bleed.

What a douche bag. That guy needs to get laid!

You guys hear about Adam Corolla going down to a line offering one person to give up their spot in line to be taken Vegas for the weekend all expenses paid including a trip to the bunny ranch? No one took him up... gamers can be so stupid sometimes...

And what will you do at the bunny ranch?

You won't score,anyway, i would ...hmm take a ps3 over that pc,but nice offer.

Hmmm...well, it's not like he can't pick up a 360 or the Wii.  Heck, he can even just go over to a friend's house to play the PS3. :)  Nice deal for him.

Let me start by saying that the PS3 is too damn expensive for me. I got a 360. HOWEVER...

This guy needs a lesson in value. Sure, that PC is far better than a PS3, but he stated many times over that it's worth $7,500 dollars. Uhhh... the PS3 is what, $600? That means the PC costs 12.5 times that of the PS3.

Anybody else see the problem here? This is a completely weak attempt to try and make a PC appear more valuable than a PS3. All this does is exemplify the fact that PC gaming is for the hardcore (or stubborn) audiences.

Did I mention the software options? Will there be more or better games for consoles or PC? This is such an easy argument, it's ridiculous.

My problem with PC gaming is that i hate to update my comp etc,my worse nigtmare is that MS is only in the console war to make famous games that will then lure back console gamers to the comp.,

Good job Sony!  You brought another gamer out of the darkness and into the light of windows gaming.  Maybe he'll even pick up a 360.  That guy is SMART.  I thought for sure that the people waiting for 4 days would be so tired they wouldn't think straight, but I guess that guy proves me wrong.

Lucky guy.

Doesn't really strike me as a victory for Windows gaming.  Makes it look like it takes a $7,500 PC to match/surpass the experience provided by a $600 PS3.

Haha!
Down with the consoles, you weaksaucers!
Submit to the power of a true, open-ended, fully functionalized, system!



Hey Kane, don't worry, three more "generation" cycles and you'll be able to buy a locked-up retarded watered-down box, AKA console, with alot of HD room, latest dual core CPU, 50 GIGs flash-RAM, including the latest 3Dfx card and it'll all cost you for the sum of $5,500 and you won't be able to do jack on it other than insert cartridges into slots and taking them out.
Oh, and did I mention that using VoIP and browsing the net will cost you money, like in cellulars?

Yeah...

Consoles lost their advantage list years ago.
They're only profitable for the publisher.
For th end-user they're an enema.
The only reason that consoles are more common spread is because they were made as "games only" and were cheaper and thus had higher penetration.
There's also the lowest common dominator factor - a chimp could operate a console, but takes someone with a live brain (no zombies allowed) to work a PC...although you could definitely plug a controller into a PC and run a retarded game for the chimp to play.
And for chimp's convinience, he can just double click a desktop icon to directly run it.

yeah,the problem isn't to run a pc when you get it,its after a time,if you dont know how to update and keep your comp fresh,all next gen game will lag,also it will cost you to upgrade all the time.

For me console gaming deliver much better titles,why?
Cause publisher developers makes best titles (IN MY OPINION) on the consoles,thus i dont play pc's.

Also i hate how a gaming rig,can affect the outcome in online games,while its always fair for console gamers when they do a duel online.

Feh.
You don't need to upgrade anything more often than you would need to get a new console.
People who believe you must have the highest end system to play the latest games (and who need to play the latest games...by most they're just recycled sequels anyway, and in couple months they're already 50% price-tag off) have not got a clue.

Sweet~!

lol.... I play FPS, MMORPG, RTS, and racing games... all of which completely suck on consol, and pwn on my sweet made from scratch pc.

This is a question of dollar value, not a question of gaming preference.  Who in their right mind WOULDN'T take a free gift valued at over SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS?  I would have taken this deal in a heartbeat even if the PC platform had no games at all.

This idea smacks of desparation. The message is "it takes a $7500 PC to beat a $600 PS3." I am not sure I would be bragging about this if I worked for Microsoft. It would be different if they offered the first several guys in line a XBox 360 and a HD DVD drive in exchange for promising not to buy a PS3 for 3 years. In reality, this is all silly. Everyone knows now that most of the people in line were waiting to buy a PS3 so that they could sell it on eBay so what kind of a point was really made here? You can make more selling a $7500 PC on eBay than a $600 PS3?
