Since when this thread became techno-babble thread?? It's about the sales of the PS3.. I, personally, don't give a s*** how it sold.. fact is - It sold. (More than the 360) And given the fact that it costs more than the 360, and it's only been out for four months with not too many games to sell only proves that the PS3 is a potential winner in the Next generation of gaming. This implores you to think "If the PS3 is selling without too many killer app games, what would happen when the big titles drop?" MGS4, Heavenly Sword, Lair, FFXIII (Exclusive or not), DMC4... and freaking many more I just can't remember right now. Do you really think anyone who buys a console stops to ponder which one is more powerful in terms of specs? Well, obviously there are some people (as proven here, by Kars) but they are DEFINATELY not a majority and they are DEFINATELY not a significant enough amount to affect any sales. And I think the Wii's sales prove that. Oh and Kars, Blu-ray beats HD-DVD in everything. But it is the Capacity that's more interesting for games; 25 gb single layered, 50 gb double layered whereas the HD-DVD is 15 gb single layered and 30 double layered and to get the 360 to play HD-DVD you need to buy a 200$ external HD-DVD drive.. so far 360 games work on normal DVD's (4.7 single layer and 8.5 double layered [better known as DVD5 and DVD9 respectively]) Here you have 50 gigs discs against 9 gigs discs... I don't know, PS3 games get more stuff inside, I think.
Planning on getting a PS3 sometime in July-August.
