| MikeB said: So the 360 only sold 5.2 million units its first year on the market in Pal regions, North America and Japan combined? You have to wonder then why the PS3 received so much crap for selling well more units its first year on the market in North America, PAL regions and Japan and this at a more expensive entry pricing.... |
The 360 was competing against the PS2 during that time, which as you can imagine was not easy.
The PS3 received a lot of crap because it was expected to dominate from the outright start due to its brand name, reliability, Blu-Ray, power of the Cell and so on. Remember the "we can sell 5 million without any games" thing?
Unfortunately for Sony, that plan didn't work. The plan is now looking worse than ever due to the worsening economy.
