PS3 Sales

The Ps3 isn't losing. It's coming third and that's very respectable. Hell if you come third in the Olympics they give you a medal!!!! Regardless of it's competition it is selling extremely well, but when thinking of it with it's competitors in mind, it was the most recently released, still has most of it's heavy hitting exclusives yet to come out, still has a price drop yet to come out and sony's consoles have always been future perfect consoles that do well over longer periods of time.

The 360 is showing how much a price drop does to your sales, and it's already released it's blockbuster titles and it's been out for longer so expect it's great success to be repeated on the Ps3 during '09.

The Wii is a phenomenon, I can't explain it other than the right price and the right marketing at the right time = something that spreads like a disease.

It's not a good comparison to compare console race with three participants with Olympics. If you are racing one of your friends, you will never do worse than coming in second but you would still be the loser if you come in second.

As for the topic, PS3 sale should go up for 2009 because of the price cut. The last price cut was in 2007. Another one should be due.
