Yes!

Timesplitters PS3. Crysis is coming to PS3. More sweet stuff, check it out!

Leading up to its worldwide release this November, Sony will produce about 1 million consoles each month, creating a total of around 9 million units at launch.

BS. If Sony only loses $200 per system, they'll lose $1,800,000,000 on the launch hardware.
Add in R&D and advertising, and you're looking at a number closer to 5 billion.

YES!! I love Timesplitters, best FPS this gen IMO.

All I care about is the timesplitters game... it's rare for a large budget game to focus on humor and Timesplitters is the best in its genre.

Amazing how you look at it from a larger perspective. How would they ever make that amount of money back?

Remember that they are spending that money to fight two wars, though. By making sure that 9 million homes have PS3s, they also ensure that 9 million more customers have been added to the Blu-Ray audience. It's a ton of money but well worth it if they succeed on both fronts.

I played a ton of Timesplitters 2 split screen. I'm definately looking forward to this one.

Sony will make the money back, no it wont be made back in 1 month but it will be made back.

who knows how it'll turn out? TS2= great, Future Perfect = crap

Sweet! Maybe this new technology will give the game new abilities, like the ability to make the characters jump.

I highly disagree, but to each his own I guess.

Future Perfect wasn't crap, but dissapointing in some ways. I think because
TS2 wasn't outdated, and FP felt a little that way.

Hmm, the fact that it's rumored you can download PS1 games to the HD makes me wonder something.

If a PS3 is supposedly required to view UMD movies from your PSP on a television set, perhaps you'll need a PS3 to stream the larger PS1 games to your PSP via USB?

it was more like Future Perfect was pretty much a slightly updated TS2 with online enabled... It was good, but never took a leap forward as big as TS2.

9 million system owners, with all the triple A titles each ps3 owner should have 20 games by three years, thats 180 million games sold, sony charge 10 per game, and there you go, breaks even at only 3 years.

ok that was a very plain forecast, but the point is, losing 200 per system is NOTHING.
