Well see the thing is now the PS3 is up to where 360 sales were 6 moths ago. 360 sales jumped when they cut the price to Sub wii levels- big surprise. What's the bottom line? PS3 gets a price cut in 09 and then it will get a sales boost. They go back and forth and the truth is that they are selling pretty much equal over their lifetime. However Bluray and the cell means that PS3 has the tech to go against the 720. Who wants to bet that the 100-1000GB games of the future will be multiplat PS3/720 games. This is why they know they HAVE to kill of PS3- but they can't- even at half the price, even with a years headstart- they have what- a 7 million console lead? And is MS still in the hole for 6 billion with the X-Box Brand, are they not about to lay off , what 100,000 employees? And PS3 which ensured bluray won the format war which means the 720 will be using bluray drives (or what digital downloads? Some vaporware tech? Don't make me laugh might as well just stick with PC gaming). Which means that MS will be sucking at Sony's teet for the next 10 years+ and so will everyone else. It's already been confirmed that bluray is being adaped faster then DVD was and HD digital dowloads are not going to be a viable mass market option until fiber is the norm. So those who-lol- want PS3to die you should be get a grip. The PS3 won't last a year longer then 360, it will last mutiple years into the 720's lifespan 2-3 years after the 360 is dead in the water. Just look at the exclusive linup for next year. What does 360 have to go up againse Killzone 2, Uncharted 2 or God of war 3? 50 million doller GTA4 episodes? Alan "no gameplay footage" Wake? Metal Gear Solid 4 a year too late?
