@koffieboon, NEW model =/= pricecut.
If Gamespot are stupid, then it`s their problem(well, they were biased by that time).
Otherwise, x360 20GB which was selling for 270$, got price up, since 60Gb version was selling at 300$, LoL.
Again:
PS3 (NA+EU) sales in 2008 = PS2 (NA+EU) sales in 2001
That is a TREND, INDEED,
AND that`s why i wrote about Japan apart from NA+EU, since that Japan Trend has chances to change in better way for PS3.
JUST like US+EU trend may change in worse way for PS3 during last 10 weeks of 2008.
Now, to be clear:
PS3 in 2008 is not doing WW as good(equal WW) as PS2 in 2001, because of poor sales in JAPAN only, while EU and NA sales COMPENSATE each other.
Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...
2009.04.30 - PS3 will OUTSELL x360 atleast by the middle of 2010. Japan+Europe > NA.
Gran Turismo 3 - 1,06 mln. in 3 weeks with around 4 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Gran Turismo 4 - 1,16 mln. with 18 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Final Fantasy X - around 2 mln. with 5 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Final Fantasy X-2 - 2.4 mln. with 12 mln. PS2 on the launch.
1.8 mln. PS3 today(2008.01.17) in Japan. Now(2009.04.30) 3.16 mln. PS3 were sold in Japan.
PS3 will reach 4 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 25k.
PS3 may reach 5 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 50k.
PS2 2001 vs PS3 2008 sales numbers =) + New games released in Japan by 2009 that passed 100k so far
