why do you keep banging on about losses that sony is currently making................i mean do u play games or play sales? i dunno why the mention of te wii because the titles in comparison to sony are no match.

 

Probably because this is a "Gaming Sales" site.  And the more losses Sony racks up the less chance there will be of a price cut, which means less likely hood of sales maybe?

 

Maybe. but its also because SONY make the PS3 cost 599 dollars at launch, horrible E3 unlike Ninty, and shifting their demographics. Most games made from the Ps3 are either shhoters or RPGs. Even with the pricecut I think that will not change anything. Just look at the 360's situation sure the sales increased but the wii still beating it on sales.

Like I said, SONY should focus more on PS2 make the PS3 sell but make it slowly phased out in retailers not sudden and make another console from scratch, and make their business ideas on PSX and PS2 applied in their new console. Their playstation brands arent really for core gamers you know... DDR, rhythm games, guitar hero, and singstar came from PSX and PS2. And most of these games hits the mainstream market why their Playstation brands are popular. Nintendo only doing this on the Wii added with the new innovative controller. Why this casual approach arent doing by SONY I dont know.

Yeah, I said Im leaving the thread but since theres a discussion starting I might aswell break the ice.
