What if this game isn't the giant system seller that PS3 fans are hoping for? Can the PS3 afford to lose ground this Christmas?

No your phrase should be....what if this game isn't the system seller for which I'm hoping.....as let us be realistic.

You never say anything positive or good about anything related to SONY or PS3.....as for PS3 loosing ground/////yeah if PS3 didn't loose ground in the xmas Halo 3 was released......it aint loosing it this xmas.

360 outsold it by 20K this week....thats pathetic for a console so cheap.

The Playstation Brand is topping chartz in Japan with the PSP.....the PS3 has a YOY 100% increase

the PS brand was in turmoil last year....now its on the rise.

Not being destroyed....but on the rise.

 

What the? Where has your reasoning gone?

The X360 price argument is kinda nutty, and you should know that, so I do not have to type it up again.

The Playstation Brand? The Playstation Brand? Come on. "The PsP is doing awesomely well in Japan" would be good, but that sounds like Sony Defence Force (or should I say Attack Force?)

The Ps3 is by no means YoY up 100%. If you exclude the fact that 2007 was an incomplete year for Europe, it may be, but for recent times, it's stupid.

From week ending 6th September to Week ending 18th October 08: 877K

Equavalient in 2007: 716K.

That's pretty darn far off.

 

The Playstation Brand sold 17.6M up to week ending 20th October last year. This year, it has sold 21.3M. If you remember that Ps3 had a late launch, it has barely increased at all, as a matter of fact, less than The Nintendo Brand or the Microsoft Brand (or whatever you want to call them).

 

For crying out loud, you used to post great post, and now you just pull data out of your behind?

 

ofcourse the price argument isn't nutty.

Its a fact....the xbox 360 can't outsell a system with a much higher price adequately.

In NA every week PS3 is up 100% YOY (check the American data source posts with the %)

In EU its the same situation....you can do the comparison yourself.

You know VERY well in the holidays the increase is much more dramatic

thats almost an increase of 100% YOY

The Legend clearly stated the Playstation brand was being destroyed.....I am baffled by this because the PS3 is almost going to outdo PS2's best year in EU this year itself (for reference & PROOF which yo think I'm not giving you check the thread with that title)

so I'm not pulling numbers out of my backside....what I'm saying is correct.

The Playstation brand is not being destroyed as Legend so clearly put it....it is vbeing revived due to strong PS3 sales this year & PSP resurgence in Japan.

Besides your last point only strenghtens my argument....as the Ps Brand has shown an increase YOY in sales so its not being "destroyed".

Please read the post I am responding to & see the context of what I'm typing before replying.
