I i think he has a point about the psp failing, the only reason people buy it is to play emulators remember that story about a week ago about how Luminees sales increased by like 25000% in one day, do you know why??? because an exploit was found that lets you run homebrew. @oldest gamer

The best thing they could do is provide something like the elite at a discount. That would consolidate the confusing number and variety of SPU's on the market, and give them an edge on the PS3. Personally, I think the PS3 doesn't need a price cut - it needs better PR. People need to understand all they'll get with the PS3 package, not just the same games at a higher price with a prototype dvd player (BTW blu-ray is awesome!) My E307 predictions are as follows:

It will freaking rock!

Besides I love the PS Network. Sure it is in it's infancy but give it time. Pirate Gamer praises m$ about all the wrong things and misses the whole 'red ring of death' issue by not stating m$ might want to up the warranty to life time, allow banned 360s and offer live for free for everyone from now on as compensation for screwing any gamer buying into their shovel ware.

Come on. Agree or disagree the man seems to be hating on everything equally, which I can feel since the whole point of these conferences is to announce improvements. They don't all just get in the room, look at each other and say "we are great see you next year" If you call the 360 Core and Elite systesm "dead" like he did you are definitely not on Bill Gates bandwagon. Keep it real boys. Enough of the bandwagon fanboy stuff boys. Come on.

It's just that I've noticed that people who get picked on a lot (like you) are usually the ones that have all the good comebacks handy. You can dislike something without having to say "this sucks" thereby trying to get the attention you obviously are lacking. Get a dog, or a hobby, or just end it all. I really don't care either way. People like you are a dime a dozen. Nope. It’s just that I’ve noticed that people who get picked on a lot (like you) are usually the ones that have all the good comebacks handy.

You need to cover up your tiny terrier balls jackass and take your mouth off Nintendo's dick. These predictions are uninteresting, how about some original predictions I haven't already read elsewhere. The internet is not my life you assclown, I use it for gaming news because it is the quickest source and this source just plain sucks, much like your ESPN reference (whose predictions I couldn't care less for). I think you need a larger pair of high heels, because your ape knuckles are still dragging on the ground. MRinQ

It is when compared to the DS's wild success, but as a handheld in a market dominated by Nintendo its doing significantly better than any other Nintendo Handheld competitors. But thats not what this article is about. I agree with a fair amount of the predictions, some are ones i think just slightly different.

The PSP hasn't failed in the least, sure it hasn't sold as well as the DSL, but the Gamecube didn't sell nearly as many as the PS2 and that's not considered a failure. Your predictions suck.
