Wrong! We buy what Sony tells us to buy, and the PS3 will outsell the 360 world wide by the end of 09 definitely. I am usually not this direct with a post, but it is absolutely true. Look at the facts. |
Wrong!
Since when does Sony control your minds? How do they diccate your purchases?
If you look at the facts, you'll see you are the one who is wrong. Look at the Gamecube for instance. At the end of 05 games were slowing down to a crawl. Very few games were released on the console, even from Nintendo. For the year of 04, only 3 millions units were sold worldwide, and the same for 05. Needless to say, the system was dead by 2006 (only selling ~1 million that year). If Nintendo were to take your philosophy and have a ten year life cycle becuase they want to, then they would be dead. The system wouldn't make any money for 4 years, which means no profit. The PS3 is going to stall eventually, and before the 10 year mark. Sony, nor anyone else, can sit on a console for 4 years without it making money, especially if their division isn;t in good shape at the moment.
Basically, Sony has two choices 1)Stop videogames all together, and 2)Make the PS4. So, it is, indeed, our call. The business is about making money. If their plan doesn't make money, then they will change it, and it will always be the consumer who drives that.
