yes I remember


It was all B-E-L-I-E-V-E this and B-E-L-I-E-V-E that lol

Lol. I remember that it was like some sort of cult. I was really afraid at the time if Sony fail there will be a mass suicide.

LOL oh God yes. It was common thinking at first, but I think most rational people had their doubts after's E3's $600 price announcement. However, Sony fanboys were not at all diswayed from PS3's domination.



 

What do you mean 'remember'? It's happening as we speak.



Damn you for including those links. I was going to say "yes, I remember last week very clearly."



Ps3 is dominating the Wii/360 XD

Its still last place. Selling more in recent years isnt changing that. You know full well the thread talked about total domination....like #1 sales off the bat domination.

2006 was the best year in gaming. Status quo was disrupted, egg was on face, 1st became last.

Sony E....3......2006. Best E3 ever. Glorious times that year was. Oh and Gears of War was great too :P

This is a response thread to a another recent one asking if you remembered when Sony was going to exit the console business. Now I ask you if you remember the (almost) opposite happening. Not only were Sony themselves guilty of this mentality, but also forum posters on this very website. Do you remember?

 


Your links seem to go back to 2009 and .......2012. But I choose to take your vague thread and remember back to 2006 when the entire industry, not just a handful of analysts and optomistic forum posters thought so.

They have to support a dead Console wich is Vita and nobody knows how Ps4 will sell but i predict terrible bad just like Vita.


If Vita is dead, then that means Sony have stopped supporting it.  If Sony have stopped supporting it, then that means they'll be able to spend more resources supporting PS4.  Excellent news, thank you for pointing that out.

There was a translation but all I can find now is the German interview.  Anyhoo, just google "Sony: We'll overtake MS in early 2007"

Here is the source in german: http://www.golem.de/0608/47437.html

I will not translate the whole interview, but some things are funny:

> Golem.de: And what about the fingerprints? The black plastic holds memories to theblack PSP, where you can see every fingerprint.

> David Reeves: I haven't touched it, we use gloves. It was said to us, to use gloves.

LOL. By the way, NIntendo copied nearly everything from the PS3, including the black plastic that gets full of fingerprints.

 

The interview itself doesn't hold the claim, but at the end they say they also talked to Guido Alt (spokes person for SCE Germany), he said Sony want to ship 4 million PS3 in 2006, 8 million to march 2007 and overtake XBOX 360 shortly after that.
