Insomniac's Brian Hastings speaks out on the PS3

[sieanr]

In my mind theres only enough room in each regions market for one of the HD consoles to take a large amount of marketshare, I don't think there is enough demand for both the PS3 and 360 to move big numbers in both the US and Europe. In this scenaro the 360 takes most of the "HD" console market in the US with the PS3 lagging far behind. The same goes for Japan and Europe, but put PS3 in place of 360. Now, provided the Wii sells more than the dominate HD console in every region, and it's major lead in Japan, then it could very well sell more than both the 360 and PS3 combined. Just so this is clear, here's a little example; Europe 2010 - Wii 20mil - PS3 15mil - 360 6mil Add these numbers up and the combined PS3/360 sales are 1 million above the Wii, but then take into account Japan Japan 2010 - Wii 15mil - PS3 5mil - 360 1.5mil Add these up and the Wii beats them combined by 9.5 million, which more than makes up for the 1 million deficit in Europe. (Disclaimer, these numbers are pulled out of my ass for illustrative purposes only and in no way is meant to be a serious prediction)
