Rachel Ray endorsed Triscuits, so I wouldn't put much stock in her endorsements.

I posted this in the official Wii sales thread, but it fits here too...

The PS3 is back to being absolutely CRUSHED in the US. I was at Best Buy about 5 minutes after they opened today - and a woman was buying the last of 51 Wiis that they had today. I then counted all the 360s - they had 5 IIRC, all Halo 3 edition. Then I counted the PS3s - 98! 98 f'ing PS3s just sitting there collecting dust. They're also completely sold out of Guitar Hero 3 for the Wii and the 360, but they have tons of the PS3 and PS2 version - even the PC version had less than the PS3.

Also, I absolutely LOATHE Rachel Ray. Triscuits suck, but Wheat Thins kick ass. I refused to buy any while her stupid mug was on the box though.

Edit - also, the song is from Saliva, and they should never EVER be confused for Rage Against the Machine - Papa Roach or Limp Bizkit would be a more accurate comparison for the crapfest that is Saliva. Tom Morello should stab you in the face with a soldering iron for saying so.

I just meant that that one song is Rage-esque, I have no idea what anything else by Saliva sounds like.

QFT.

The guitar riff in that song is actually pretty catchy, but other than that, everything they make sucks.

I was at Best Buy again today (trying to score GH3+guitar for 360), and now they have 187 PS3s. I even took a video with my phone. It's truly, truly sad.

When I was in NYC, I went to Best Buy a few times and the number of PS3 boxes on the floor seemed to be the same everytime.
I also tried the PS3 last night at a friend's and wasn't impressed...

yeah at the best buy near me its the same story, they dont have many out on the sales floor but everytime i go back its the same pile just sitting there, collecting dust, where as wii's are never even shown on the sales floor (i think you have to ask).

on black friday i was at the mall (where i usually take my lunch breaks.. mmm mall ass) and i saw this guy sitting on a bench with his ps3 box on the floor at his feet.. taking a nap! me and my friend jokingly said we should steal it and sell it on ebay.. for less than whats its worth since it'd be all profit for us.

The problem is, no one needs to use eBay to get a PS3, so you probably won't even get any bids. I just don't see why they're even putting these on the floor - there's 3 huge pallets with 60 consoles each, and then they have a few more scattered around various shelves - where they are literally just trying to find a place to stick them. They must need the space in the stockroom for something else.

If it comes that late on 360 it better come with some exclusive extras. But I will laugh if MGS4 get RE4'd and just a few weeks before PS3 release its announced for 360.

That's such a healthy long time for the 360 version considerin the PS3 version isn't coming tomorrow or any time soon.

I wouldn't be surprised if the game stayed exclusive to the PS3 because we all know how stupidly stubborn Konami is, with their misguided loyalty to Sony and all.  They have showed time and again that they can't be relied on to make the smart decision.

Kojima made Boktai and lunar Knights for GBA and DS. What's wrong with that?

Konami has just been dropping way to many hits that the game is going to go to the Xbox360.
I also wouldn't be surprised if it would turn out to be more the 6 to 8 months after the PS3 version.

I'm willing to bet that the only reason they haven't made an official announcement is because they don't want to piss off Sony and their fanboys.
Also if they were to announce that the 360 version will be coming out a bit more down the road, then some fans might just hold off till the 360 version comes out cause they might figure that the 360 version will have additional content that won't be in the PS3 version.

It was never a question on 'IF' if would come to the 360, it was a question of 'WHEN'. It's just way to dangerous for any company, even someone like Konami to release exclusives games to the PS3, especially one that is costing as much money as Metal Gear Solid 4.
