360 Vs PS3
Not what you might think, but there's going to be a fanboy fight down in Vegas.
http://arstechnica.com/journals/thum...-vs-ps3-at-ces "Here's how it works: We'll hold a tournament on the PLAYSTATION 3 version of Street Fighter IV to determine the best PlayStation player," the PlayStation Blog reports. "This fantastic and charismatic individual will be awarded a Collector's Edition Street Fighter IV, before taking on the Microsoft winner. This person will then be victorious, because they're just that special. Capiche?" If you're interested in defending the honor of the PS3 in Vegas, send an e-mail to iwannaplaystreetfighteriv@gmail.com with your name, PSN ID, and why you think you should have a chance to compete. Microsoft's Major Nelson brings you the other side of the coin. "Street Fighter IV won't be out for another month, but if you are in Las Vegas later this week I've got some great news for you. Capcomis giving you, well twenty of you, a chance to get your hands on it early. As in way early…as in this week. In addition, we'll take the best SF IV player and put you up against the best SF IV player," he writes. "It's a cross-platform Battle Royale. Interested in defending our honor? If you are 18 years of age or older, and you are in the greater Las Vegas area send me an email (Major at Xbox dot com) with your Gamer tag, your real name and why you deserve to be in on the action. Only 20 players can represent Xbox 360 since it will be a tight fit in the Capcom suite. Head over to the Capcom blog for more details and I'll see some of you on Thursday." Capcom is promising that both Sony and Microsoft will be "sweetening the pot" for this event, so we'll have to wait and see what that means. This is a pretty fantastic promotion to get two heated groups of gamers together for some pretty extreme bragging rights. Pretty cool idea, but I'm surprised that both Sony and MS are sponsoring an event jointly. ![]() |

If both players use sticks on either console what we have here is a waste of fucking time. Just a normal tourny.

They need to use the arcade sticks cause PS3 players would get whooped with their 1970s pong controller.

So, the message they're sending is that arcade > both consoles
