Probably not, but given the PS3's sales that's not the key point. The real question Sony should have asked themselves 3 years ago is has a $500-600 system ever done well in a console race much less actually won? The answer to that is no. It's even worse for Sony since their heavy reliance on 3rd party means they need to be first or close to first to get the games that sell on their system to make a profit on selling their systems for a loss. But like Nintendo circa 1994 Sony got arrogant and started thinking they were the video game industry.
