You would have to be an idiot to think that the Ps3 would pass the 360 in 2008. You would have to believe that the Ps3 would outsell the 360 by over 7M. That's 134K a week.

As no rational person would believe the 360 would sell less than a 9-10M this year, it would mean he would expect the Ps3 to sell a ~ 17M this year, which is what some people expected the Wii to sell (the ones who didn't expect the Wii to get increased production from 1.4M/month).

 

I am also kinda offended that you use the word "we" so much, to describe Ps3 owners. The people who expected what you say are in minority on the site, and the ones who didn't expect it surely won't like being piled in with the morons.

 

I agree that the Ps3 has failed this generation, and that the 360 has done some superb things. Still, we all know this, and it isn't a new thing that came in 2008. In fact, 2008 made the Ps3's future look far less crappy in terms of unit sales.

how is ps3 future looked crappy because of 2008, 2008 has been a great year for sales and games. ps3 has had brilliant games this year so i dont know what ur talking about.

only reason why 360 sales have bumped last 2 months is because they had no choice to cut thier price, even at a much lower price anyway in the 1st place ps3 was selling more weekly sometimes 50k more.

imo at the current price point the ps3 is its doing very well, had 360 been the same price point as ps3 is now,  i doubt it vry much that 360 would sell at all.

i belive ps3 will get through nicly with its price point during the xmas period, and surely when 2009 price cuts happen on ps3 the sales will highly rocket.

 

 

 You misread what I said. In fact, 2008 made the Ps3's future look far less crappy in terms of unit sales.

It still isn't looking good for the Ps3, but it no longer looks like it is simply a moneyhole, with nothing good comming out of it.

It may be doing well for its price, but that doesn't help. Sony loses more money pr Ps3 sold than Microsoft does pr X360 sold. 

 

 sorry about misunderstanding:)

but i cant understand how u can say its still not looking good for the ps3, i mean whats not looking good for it, its had great games all year round, in fact once december is over im going to make an exclusive games thread sales total on both platforms. to see how close ps3 has done in sales with its exclusives for the year.

its true sony looses on every console, but now surely microsoft looses on every console also, mabey not as much though
