Beats aren't all crap, and they're worth about 50 - 100. What makes it bad is you pay 200-300 for those pairs, and the more expensive they get, the worse they are.
Mmm that crappy mid bass hump.
But they're loud guys, so totally worth.


LOL Beats are a joke.

So-so hardware and basically a preset equalizer setting that was "tuned" by Dre's preferences instead of your own.

No thanks. Though the logo is clean and the headphone design is modern and decent looking.

xbox one price is dropping by 100$, so i start believing what vgchart says here... http://www.vgchartz.com/

 

wii U about 40k and xbox one 48k... lol  Now when they drop the price, they may earn 500k sales more as a boost, but it will drop again at the current rates. I bet.

now ps4 is 3x from wii U and xbox one... Thats good news though, because Wii U will not left alone, for a long time, so that may give some boost into 3rd party support.

See this makes me sad. Everytime I say beats are a rip off,99% of people think I say that because you shouldn't  pay $300 for headphones.

you shouldn't pay $300 for Beatsspecifically there are lots of headphones out there totally worth 300 bucks.

Even 10 dollars for sony headphones probably isn't the best deal. I'm nearly positive you can get better headphones for that price. It's all about researching before you buy.

http://www.extremete...-at-3-6-million
Sony have been outed again by claiming over 6 million sales sometime last month, the official numbers show only 5.3 million (more than 300,000 less than the Wii U numbers from the January investors meeting from Nintendo)
Meanwhile, the x1 sits at 3.3 million.

I will give you one thing you will bravely go down with this sinking ship.

I mean come on! The PS4 had only been out since November and it will be leaving the Wii U in the dust by next holiday season.

Your numbers didn't even consider the upcoming Japanese launch. That was obviously going to take it past the Wii U.

The part that makes me upset about the whole thing is how Nintendo put out a half-assed product with the idea of selling 100 million units at a profit. Oops. Didn't work this time.

The PS4 blows it out of the water in every way imaginable. There is not one 3rd party game you would buy for it that isn't better on the other new systems.

Due to their inability to out out a competitive console the consumer is telling Nintendo they failed this time.

The could have done better.

I am glad I have one for the Nintendo games. But that is the only thing I will use it for. That and my 3 year old absolutely loves it. It is mind of cool that he can play on the gamepad.

I'm going to edit my post now to say i'm a nintendo fan despite the fact i hate them and want them to die because i love sucking on sony's milk hehehe lol stupid nintendo fans i can be sonice person-tits about them in this post and they're so dumb that this one line like "i love nintendo, don't get me wrong" makes me a nintendo fan lolol!! haahaha!! horsing nintendo fans... nine-ten year olds!! sony ftw woo!!! hypeps4 wooo sony!!!!


I'm reporting facts.
Sony haven't sold as many consoles as Nintendo have this generation.

Third party companies throw all their support at a console which has less of an install base than Nintendo constantly.
With over 1 million more gamers to sell their games to, they are instead focusing on a console with just 3-4 million users, and a horrible imagine to gamers(x1), and a console which is all hype and no substance, with over 5 million sales(p4), many of which are in the UK, which historically are owned by Sony, and their hype marketing techniques.
Just look at how PSV does in the UK, and it has 2 games total.

Well, you have to applaude the Sony hype machine. People know what a PS4 is. I know people at work (who aren't games) that ask me when the new Nintendo console is coming out.

I still expect a 30 million Wii U install base. But PS4 will have about 3 times that.

Let's face the facts. The PS4 has way more power to satisfy the 3rd party companies and some very good exclusives.

What exclusives?
Infamous?
That's 1.
And does it even have a release date that isn't utter unicorn tongue hype?

It's a shame people are stupid, and buy into hypemachine advertising techniques.
And nobody at your work should be a game. That would be strange.

Thanks for the back up 8).

It may be hard to remember, but I do want the Wii U to succeed. I have just become jaded by what I perceive as a lack of attentiveness by Nintendo. I just want great games on any system.

I just don't see how Big N will compete in going beyond 1st party games and drawing a bigger audience. The system will not be a bust but it also won't be the b leader this time.

As far as Sony exclusives I enjoy media molecule games. I like Uncharted. Infamous will be good.

I said what I said because saying that the PS4 is better than Wii u in every way is just straight up untrue and a pretty dumb hing to say. Much like something to sailtheseas would say...

The only thing the Wii U is better at is second screen direct play. That is a Nice feature, but hardly a system seller. Otherwise the gamepad is a gimmick.

Nope, wrong again. Also, like Nollog said, there's the (pretty huge) issue of games. Also, Miiverse. Sure there are other things but 1. I'm too lazy to think of them 2. I have about 0.1% chance of every buying a PS4, therefore I have next to no knowledge of what it can and cannot do.
