Right now it looks like it's holiday 2009. Before that, it was sometime after holiday 2008 or maybe it was when supplies were short on the 360 at the beginning of this year. My point is that the date keeps changing, and the PS3 keeps not passing up the 360. It may or may not pass it up someday. I think for this generation the PS3 may take second, but there's also plenty of time for things to develop and evolve, and maybe the PS3 won't take second. Who can really know? At the beginning of the generation people were saying the PS3 would be king by this point and it's in third place. I don't have anything against the PS3 at all. It's a great machine. But I have to say that the fanboys it spawns are pretty cocky. I've never seen anything like it. The PS3 is still in third place and people act like it's already won this fictitious, internet created console war that the average user probably isn't even aware of. In truth, you can't really brag that you're in first or second place until you actually are in first or second place. The FFXIII deal took a lot of wind out of Sony's sails. Even Tretton admitted that in an interview the day after his E3 keynote. In fact, I believe I remember him saying in the same interview that the Japanese market is not going to save them from the damage this has done. Sales are still poor for the PS3 in Japan relative to how past machines have done. |
