Purchasing decisions not just about cost, say experts
Microsoft may have cut the price of the Xbox 360 in Europe, but analysts remains cautious that the console has yet to prove popular with an audience outside of the dedicated core gamer.

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.
Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.
I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.
It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.
Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.
I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
Playstation has a staying power that is unrivaled by no other company. Nintendo being the only exception. When someone thinks of XBOX, they laugh and ridicule the system for being the garbage failure that it is. PLAYSTATION® 3 is the undeniable choice for each gamer worldwide.

I think the value is great for the price. I feel the same about the PS3 and Wii as well. It is never too late to Jump In and Play Beyond with your Wii.
PSWii60 FTW!!!
for the real gamer is not found in the Arcade.
The pro on the other hand is a fine deal
if i can get a 360 for under 300bucks it will be hard to say no
......That only 50% of PS3 owners use their HD functionality. Average consumers are generally extremely price conscious and mostly don't know about the product their buyings actual function. Like we on n4g are educated buyers the majority of consumers are not, they look at a price tag and say " Games console they all do the same thing but that one is Half the Price of that one." They don't care they just look at the price tag and pick it up.
