Seeing that Blu-Ray is only 5% of that market I think that they should push the PS3 as a gaming system. Sony is using the PS3 as a tool to push Blu-Ray.

 

We are only enthusiast part of market. Probably the most hardcore of hardcore as most people I know don't care about sale statistics or even monitor game portals on regular basis.

 

So we don't really know if their marketing is working or not becouse it's targeted towards mainstream users. Becouse hardcore audience can't be  bought with ads but must be won over with quality games and hardware features.

 

I know for me advertising had 0% of importance when buying system (I mostly went with lists of exclusive games not avalaible on pc and of features that would give me fulller experience when combining console+pc gaming).
