Er, GT4 was released more than a year ago, so I guess you mean GT5.Dimitrov
And since it has been announced that the PS3 will be region-free, there will be no JP or US version.
So actually, what you mean is that you'll be buying the PS3 the day GT5 hit the shelves.

Yeah, MC wanted to screw up PS3 sales by releaseing it the day before the PS3, but i read somewere that Halo3 won't be till 2007. It was a quote of some Bunjie person, i have no idea since i'm not a Halo freaks like 75% at my school are. God i hate my school.CAMAROBOY69I heard they are releasing Halo 3 on the PS3 launch date. If that is true then I would probably buy a 360 on the PS3 launch date.I assume the launch date will be at the end of this year?

yeah i feel the same wat, the single player was fun for maybe an hour, but then it felt sooo repetitive. And when i got Halo 2, i thought that it was going to gave really good graphics, good single player etc.. Halo 2 felt soo too similar to Halo1, and when i saw the other ring, i felt "oh god"
Halo 1 all over again....

1) 360 comes first
2) Must have HDTV
3) Depends on if the Revolution is out
4) How much it costs, and if GT5 will be worth it
Then, I might buy one... But, I have until the November "window," so we will see what happens...
tha_con: Halo may be the "poor man's" FPS, but would you mind explaining to me why it has become one of the most popular game franchises in video gaming history? You may not like it, but there are MILLIONS out there who do, and there are going to be MILLIONS who are going to be there buying the game the day it comes out.
...Considering that Halo has indeed set a standard in FPS games (atleast on the consoles), it is far from perfect. But, that is all dependant on one's opinion. The PC FPS setup may be the best, but there are plenty of people who prefer the console version, and it is an ongoing conflict of interests.
I say, who cares. I liked Halo and Halo 2 (a lot), but I would say games like Call of Duty were a bit better, if not the best FPS games on the market today. I dont use the PC platform because it costs too much money to upgrade and to keep up with the changing standards in the industry, so I've stuck to consoles. I may be an "illiterate" and "uninteligent" gamer for doing so, but I do the best with what I have, and I am perfectly happy doing so... And in the end, that is all that matters.

I'll get it when GT5 comes out, which will probably be up to a year after launch, hopefully after at least one price drop, but I won't be paying out the proverbial on launch.
Of course I'd LIKE one at launch, but its just easier and more sensible to wait a little bit. That way you know how good the launch titles are in hindsight too...

hahaha...i bought a PS2 last fall and bought the replacement program.
for an extra $25.00, if anything happens to my PS2, theyll fix it or replace it with a new one.
when the PS3 comes out, IF something happens, theyll replace it with a PS3.
thats what i was told. either way, im safe

Thats no fair, they didn't say anything like that to me! So you could always just "accidently" spill water on it or drop it, and get a free PS3.
But don't do it the day it comes out, or that will look suspicous.
I will only get the PS3 when GT5 comes out for it.

I wouldn't count on that PS3 being the replacement. Someone was talking in their sleep. No one is going to replace a $150 console with a $499 console. You think you could buy a Neon, get an extended warranty for $300 and ask the dealer, "Now, if I wreck this, would you replace it with a Viper?" 
Be nice to your PS2.

i make 800k a month here...
the PS3 will probably cost me about 2500 or even 3000k when it arrives here. but i will buy as soon as i have the money saved up. so while you guys in north america complain to pay 500 dollars for the PS3, things can get very ugly in other countries... i would love to pay 500 living and working in the US... here, the PS2 still costs 1000k, more than what i make in my 40hour a week job... only the uber-hardcore gamers will have a PS3 here... point is, if you really love videogames, and sony, the price will not be an issue:tup:

Indeed, no one would ever replace a PS2 with a PS3 unless the insurance for the PS2 cost as much as a PS3 LOL!Tenacious DI wouldn't count on that PS3 being the replacement.
