How can any of you say that the PS3 was such a failure when right off the heals of the PS3, the PS4 is selling at an unstoppable rate...................

Its quite clear that The SUCCESS of the PS3 has ultimately carried over to the PS4.

Point, blank Period.

With that kind of reasoning the GameCube was a success since it lead to the Wii... And I don't really agree with that ^^

Not quite the same. The Wii was radically different from the GameCube. The PS4 builds on what made the PS3 great.

If Nintendop hadn't had the GC they wouldn't have tried something radically new. And really, very few of the bad design choices for the PS3 transferred over to PS4. Nintendo learned their lesson with GC, as did Sony with PS3. Sony took what was good with PS3, ditched the bad things, and gave us PS4. It is quite the same.

Not really, the Wii is nothing like the GC. It was such a failure that Nintendo went a completely different direction.

If they have to be similar to their predecessor, then we could blame the PS2 for the failings of PS3
