The PS3 hasn't peaked yet, once the economy get's better (hopefully in 2009) and they release all them AAA games for 09 and get the price cut, then I can imagine it'll do much better then 2008.

Two things. 1. Please explain how sony can afford a price cut. It's easy to explain how much they need one. But they can't afford one.

2. The PS3 HAS lots of AAA games, this has not helped the PS3 at all. PS3 NEEDS games for everybody. Having only AAA games is only going to bury Sony even deeper. Appealing only to the elite and hardcore is a part of how Sony has toppled it's own empire. Sony forgot who bought a PSX & PS2. http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=52464&page=1 

The 360 has focused on both the hardcore and family fare in 2008, and this has paid off in a big way. Sony desperately needs the diversity of the software lineup of it's two successful and profitable consoles. 

Well I'm not sure if you know or not but I'm talking about a price cut for 09, Sony said themselves once they start making money off the console (and they said it should be in 2009) they'll do a price cut.

And for your second response, I only pay attention to the hardcore games so I can't really respond to that, I'm not sure if the PS3 has a good line up of casual games for 2009 or none at all I don't pay attention to that, hopefuly someone else will reply to that part of your response.
