Do you really think the "war will be over " and the PS3 will dissappear into the sunset or something like that ? .Winning or not winning the PS3 will be a viable plattform and when it reaches a determinate price point most people will buy it despite who was winning until then .If being a viable plattform ,having great occidental and oriental software ,free online and growing community thorough Home isnt enough for you ....
If the PS3 averages a $100 price drop every year (starting in 2007) it will be 2009/2010 before it hits a price that people bought their PS2 at ...
We still have too little data to determine where sales will be in 2009/2010, but one would assume that monthly sales would be lower and sales spikes (associated with big games and holiday seasons) would be smaller because of the higher price; if the PS3 is sitting under 18 Million units sold in 2009 it is plausable that the PS3 wouldn't have many exclusive games and would be struggling to get ports of games.
I'm not saying I know what will happen, but the higher price (and angry customers) will have a massive impact on the sales of the PS3
