    True, but many of their product lines have been sluggish lately. I read an interview with the head of Sony, and right now much of the company's hope for the future is pinned on the success of the PS3. If it fails, it might be more than an ailing Sony can absorb.

    Maybe so, but the fact that it continues to drop may or may not have anything to do with the PS3 at all.

    And besides...there are no big coincidences and small coincidences. There are simply coincidences.

    The thing is, I would say, that buying shares in Nintendo right now may not be that great an idea. Sure they may do well, but they're high enough at this point where buying them would just be too expensive. The time to buy the shares are when theres no hype or news. In other words, the stock is low. Buy low, sell high.

    Even if the PS3 is Sony's last hope, there will still be a brief spike in the stock price like Tygore said. You just have to sell at the spike. But not wait too long, or you're fucked.

    Don't forget that you do get paid for beign a stock holder. You don't just make money via selling the stock.

    Re: Sony Screwed for PS3 Launch

    ahhhh the stock market, LMAO, makes me remember of my social studies teacher when he tried to explain the stock market to us, and of one of my classmates: "Why do we fight wars? Why can't we just draw straws?" ROFL!

    Anyway back to the subject.
    Phillips isn't any compitition to Nintendo at least, especially after the Phillips cdi system... that totally killed zelda. The XBox 360 will probably sell more than the wii, and the wii than the PS3, seeing they are only going to sell 400,000 to the US. And the Blu Ray disk will probably be a complete failure, you don't need that much memory for alot of games save an rpg like Legends of Dragoon (WTF 7 F'ING DISKS *which was for the ps1). With massive loading times, they've doomed themselves to hell.
    Ok time to play this game (called Elder Tablets IV for some reason):

    Elder Tablets IV
    Loading...
    I%


    Next day:

    Elder Tablets IV
    Finished loading preloader, starting loading process
    0.0000000000000001%
    One week:

    Elder Tablets IV
    Loading...
    99.999999999999999%


    1 second later:

    Elder Tablets IV
    Disk Read Error
    Load Aborted

    Pisses you off doesn't it?

    Re: Sony Screwed for PS3 Launch

    First off, the mention to Philips was about movie player technology...

    Next, Legend of Dragoon was on 4 discs. So were several other rpgs.

    In other news today, One of Sony's PS3 big advantages just disappeared. The Fall update of the Xbox 360 dashboard will enable 1080P playback for games and movies. =) Also there are rumors of using the HD-DVD drive for games that need HD or more content or something. So you'd be looking at possibly having a DVD in the 360 and a HDDVD inthe HD-DVD drive so rather than playing lower quality movies or something it could stream HD from the HDDVD. They also say it could be possible extra game content or something could be stored on the HDDVD and allowing non-hddvd users to save it from the marketplace to their harddrive for free.
