   Great 2007 finale guys! I’m hyped for the premier already cause I’m an EG fanboy haha. Peace out.
2. The Antisumma December 22, 2007

   Boy, did I call this one. Friday was push the PS3 day, or should I say push Sony. They have been all over the Bravia lately like it’s the greatest television on the market when it’s not even close. The quality of Sony televisions has gone downhill since the Playstation took off. I wondered how an internet cam show could be financed by just a couple ads and now I know. The graphics on the tower defense ripoff are supposedly great (not), and the game is innovative (not). The PS3 did better than the 360 in it’s first year (not - why didn’t MS drop the price in the first year?). Have a happy new year. I’m done watching this biased joke of a show.

5. STEWZIE December 22, 2007

   yeah i kinda do hate how its biased all the time but i dont hate enough for me to leave
6. peticco December 22, 2007

   The Antisumma>>> I think what u say is completely bullshit. Summa is a big ps3 fanboy, and he only does what every fanboy does: Loving everything that connected to ps3, and hating on everything else.

   When Wheat is the host, and Force is around, there is much more balance in show.

   And yes, that tower defense game looked shit, and I think there is nothing innovative in flame, laser turrets….
7. STEWZIE December 22, 2007

   wtf are you tallking wheat is also a ps3 fanboy, and force used to be a wii fanboy(opinionated) but now i think hes starting to be the only all-around player, and the bravia is not that great i have the best samsung lcd tv out there and im pretty sure its better
8. Manny December 22, 2007

   Good final sony. I’m hope you sony have a good sony, sony.

   (did I say it enough?)
9. memske December 22, 2007

   STEWZIE: you opinion is worthless when you dont even know if your Samsung LCD beats a Bravia

   Bias will remain in every sector of pretty much anything, this is a show that prides itself in letting their own styles/opinions of gaming come out in an unedited format. They achieve this. Balance is created with the multiple hosts when it comes down to a review day or what have you.

   Go to G4. They get paid to endorse/promote products. I’m sure you will love it.

    OK, let me just put this out there first of all.

    I love the show, i love all the hosts, the show is great.
    Biasism is everywhere, it can’t be helped. But Summa said something along the line of “PS3 sold more than the 360 in their first year out”

    November (’05 for 360, ‘06 for PS3)

    360: 326,000
    PS3: 197,000
    Wii: 476,000

    Both Suffered from Console Shortages… the PS3 Launched in North America and Japan, While the 360 Launched in NA, SA, Japan, and Europe… 360’s should have been spread thin, yet they still had more for the US than PS3 did…

    December

    360: 281,000
    PS3: 491,000
    Wii: 604,000

    PS3 ramps-up production for this month, realizing that the other 2 consoles had much larger supplies for NA… the 360, however, still had some serious supply shortages…

    January

    360: 250,000
    PS3: 244,000
    Wii: 436,000

    Supply issues still plagued the 360… PS3 was still hard to come by, but many stores were able to start keeping them on the shelves

    February

    360: 161,000
    PS3: 127,000
    Wii: 335,000

    Rain checks given for the 360 are starting to be fulfilled, a glimmer of hope for those who might catch one on store shelves, but it was still unseen to the vast majority looking for one… PS3 was readily available in most areas. pictures on the internet of piles of the consoles on display in stores started popping up

    March

    360: 192,000
    PS3: 130,000
    Wii: 259,000

    360’s Supply was finally starting to catch up with demand. more in-store sightings were popping up… PS3’s sales were steady, but the console wasn’t exactly selling out…

    April

    360: 295,000
    PS3: 82,000
    Wii: 360,000

    360’s production was finally at a steady supply/demand pace… you could find them in stores in most places. You can see the sales jump as MS ramped-up production… PS3’s sales were looking pretty bleak…

    May

    360: 221,000
    PS3: 82,000
    Wii: 338,000

    More steady sales for the 360… The PS3 moved another weak month, talks of another possible PS3 Sku

    June

    360: 277,000
    PS3: 99,000
    Wii: 382,000

    Both consoles had a slight bump in sales… 360’s sales still overpowering the PS3’s

    July

    360: 206,000
    PS3: 159,000
    Wii: 425,000

    PS3’s Strongest Month Since January… the Price-Cut of the 60GB Model was the main seller… 360’s numbers were as expected…

    August

    360: 205,000
    PS3: 131,000
    Wii: 404,000

    Another solid month for the 360… PS3’s Sales start to head back down after 60GB models start becoming more scarce, and the hype dies once again…

    September

    360: 259,000
    PS3: 119,000
    Wii: 501,000

    360 sees a slight bump up… PS3 sees a slight bump down…

    October

    360: 218,000
    PS3: 121,000
    Wii: 519,000

    Nothing new here…

    November

    360: 511,000
    PS3: 466,000
    Wii: 981,000

    Still in the lead… the 360 Sees an underwhelming response, likely due to the PS3 and the Wii being released this month… the PS3 has another $100 price-cut for a stripped-down model… it helps a little…

    If anythings wrong, then my apologies….i just copied and pasted this. :)

    P.S. Summs still great, even though hes a fanboy.
12. STEWZIE December 23, 2007

    wtf it is unbalanced wheat,summa, and kamra love the ps3 for some reason and they think its the best thing out there just because of its raw power and blu-ray so youre left with force and virii, who are more mixed than others except for wow. I do think a show should be eclectic but so much where theres no one to defend anything else; wtf is rance where you need him, wait he also did like the ps3
    t(’-'t)U ps3
