Sales for PS3 40g model 1st week sales? Any guesses? - Blu-ray Forum

If the PS3 didn't have a bluray player, there is no way I would have ever bought it. XBOX 360 has far better exclusives IMO - Gears, Bioshock, Halo, Mass Effect (pretty sure this is exclusive), and Too Human (which I think looks amazing).

Most other good games are on both consoles, and at least right now, the EA games play better on a 360.

Live is also way better than the PSN (even if you do have to pay for it).

There is no point in paying more for the PS3 if you only play games unless you absolutely need Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, or God of War.

Anyway - as for the PS3 not being used for many movies, I think packing in SM3 was a brilliant idea. Gives people an easy way to see how much better a blu ray looks in comparison to their regular DVDs and I think they'll definitely consider buying more on their own. They could have just as easily packed in a game if they wanted, but there is a reason they didn't and it's not just becuase the movie costs less. I only wish Sony was smart enough to include an HDMI cable or at least component cable so that people will definitely see the difference. Since you want people to really experience HD and so many people already own PS2s (which use the same cable), they shouldn't have included composite or should have included both.
