crazy. the price difference explains some of it, but not all. This fact has to be taken with a grain of salt, but it certainly is eye-opening. Thoughts?

Videogame Thread!!! Pshhaw.

[Drew Beringer]

I might get a 360, I just don't know yet.

[JezisHChrist]

That's because PS2 is the tits.

i'd get one... table tennis is SO much fun. also playing as master chief in DOA4 = orgasmic

Not surprised about PS2 still outselling them, especially with the ridiculous price gap and the incredible (at least in largeness) library. Maybe it's people revolting against the uber-expensiveness of next generation consoles. Crap, I just deleted 3/4 of my post, I need to stop posting essays in every thread.

I need to buy new games for my PS2. I am tired of playing MGS2 and Kingdom Hearts 1.

[StandMyBrothers]

I'll be playing PS2 for like 2 more years till PS3 goes down

Ive had a 360 since launch. I finally used it to play a 360 game after like 4 months. The game is called "Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion." Its really good but definently better for the PC. I still play Halo 2 more than any other game.

breather resist is a beautiful band.

[AreTwoKay]

I just rebought a ps2

[kirbs84]

not suprising at all considering the price and availability of the PS2. remember though, it said "six out of the last seven" months. I don't think the PS2 will keep these kind of sales up much longer.

those are two great games though.

[Brownpants06]

Meh, I don't really have any complaints on my 360 that I've had since feb now. Halo 3, GTA4, games are the system sellers.

Guitar Hero.

they were so bad that they will be a huge inside joke among my friends until the end of time

clearly you and your friends are complete morons.

[EVILSLADE]

Naturally.

SONY >>>>> Microsoft

[Brownpants06]

No. Must I explain?

[DaveFeelsRight]

DUH.
THE 360 HAS BEEN OUT FOR LIKE 6 MONTHS AND THE PS2 HAS BEEN OUT SINCE 2000. maybe some people are cheap and dont want a 360.

you realize that ps2 has been outselling the xbox 360 monthly, not just overall, right? ps2 has been out since 2001 and is still selling more monthly than the 360. thats sad.

[last light]

with a huge library, $120 price tag its understandable that its out selling it. Im not going to read the article cause frankly i dont care but does it mention if gamecube, original xbox are outselling it as well?

[DaveFeelsRight]

Yup and how about MAYBE, people are not ready to move into the next gen yet?

[DroppedUrPocket]

whoa, *** isn't blocked.

[Chemical Love]

Between my brother and I, we have bought 4 or 5 PS2s.

[xvszero]

I wouldn't be surprised if the PS2 was outselling the PS3 at the PS3 launch price.

WII FOR TEH WIN!!!!!!!!!!!

[gilatron5000]

Uh...how about Supply And Demand?

How many PS2's are available? Hoe many 360's are available?

[xvszero]

The 360 supply problems are mostly over now.

The PS2 is really just that popular. If Sony didn't go with such an insane price on the PS3 I'd call the next gen console wars over already.
