1- people who say "GT series games are by far the best" either havent played forza, or they are fanboys, and their opinion is tainted.



2-however, im an adult with the money to spend, not a kid who has scratched together my pennies to buy a new PS3, then waited in line for 18 hours in the cold to get it..screw that. when sony gets their asses in gear and stops playing games with their biggest market, and decides to supply enough systems to meet the demand, i will buy one...

3-but ill be damned if i will ever wait in line for anything that is going to cost me 600 bucks. i just got a 52" HDTV, so i want a HD gaming system, but not bad enough to wait in line. if xbox hurries and brings the second forza game out, i will liekly go buy the 360 system and the new forza. then ill buy the PS3 whenever i can walk into a store and buy one.

4-in short, im too good to wait in line for a video game system that will likely have "bugs"....im too good to wait in line for one that doesnt have bugs too. if i go somewhere to eat, and there is a line, ill go somewhere else. ill drive an hour to be seated rigth away instead of waiting a half hour at one place.
1- true.

2-very easy to demand for something without going for the struggle.

3- you just contradicted yoursefl. you got a 52' HDTV but do not want a HD system that bad... but if xbox HURRIES the new game you will likely buy it?? wich one is it?

4- if you happen to know bobby fischer then i dont need to bother with the rest.

anyways im happy you are getting one, but maybe im one of those fanboys that scratched their pennies so he can get a ps3 with bugs. why kill the dream? we are glad to know you have money but not all of us do .
1. glad that i got something right...

2. this isnt the depression and im not waiting in line for food which will keep my family alive..its a video game...there shouldnt be "Struggle". i have a job in which i set my hours...i could have taken a whole week off to wait in line..i could have spen thw week in a lawn chair watching a portable TV powered by my generator...but i wont do that...its not worth it.

3. i said nothing about them hurrying. forza 2 is the only game that i am interested in on 360, so if that comes out soon, i might buy the 360 before the PS3. i didnt contradict myself....i dont want them to rush, and i dont even know when its supposed to come out, but when it does, ill be more likely to by a 360.

4. bobby fischer...the chess kid? how does he relate to me not wanting to wait in the cold, in line for

I went to Best Buy today to pick up some new games and saw a WALL of PS3s w/o anyone buying. That's pretty strange since by this time last year there werent so many 360s around. If you want it but couldn't get one at launch, now is the time. I probably wait for the price drop (apparently I couldn't for the 360)

There are 2 PS3s at the retail store i work at. One of them is a return but the other one is still there. I think some1 was gonna buy it today though. Its strange that I haven't got even one question about if we had any in stock lately.

I couldn't wait for the price drop either, I waited in line for mine. And the PS3's are lining the walls everywhere, and people just aren't buying them. Some are saying Sony released a system that is going to bomb, and its sales are down considerably from the 360's when it was out the same time the PS3 is. Even the wii is doing better than the PS3, for the money you don't get what you paid for. I got a wii for christmas as well, and it was awesome. Gave me more fun than playing the PS3, and I dare say was almost as fun as gears of war. Phoenix you're full of **** too, I send you chat invites all the time and you never respond or come play with me

the graphics on the screenshots just blow the new GT away.
