Stop digging sony's grave, they are not dead yet, They are still selling better there than the 360 and have sold more since launch than the 360 did after launch over the same time period. Go dig Microsofts grave. FYI, The PS3 is still selling faster than the PS1...So why can't theyt pick up? The PS1 did and somehow a faster selling system can't? Riiiight. |
I don't know how many times we have to state the following: It doesn't matter if PS3 is selling more than xbox360 did one year ago, IF xbox360 sells more now. This just means that the gap between the userbase become larger not smaller.
PS3 doesn't have the same luxury as PS1, is it any system this generation that can be compared with PS1 it is xbox360. PS1 had an early start compared to the rest of that generation so that the sluggish sales didn't matter. When the compettion was out, PS1 had build a userbase anyway, that is the point were xbox360 is today.
PS1 had a Nintendo that more and more pissed off the 3rd party and a missmanaged sega to fight against. PS3 has Microsoft (with a large amount of cash) and Nintendo striving for keeping the devlopment cost down.
Note: I don't think PS3 is dead, but I do think that will have a problem if the can't at least reach GameCube leavels in Japan, which it currently is tracking behind. Simple because it needs to fast reach WW sales to counter xbox360 USA domination and Wii:s japanese domination. PS3 doesn't have time to do a PS1, xbox360 did because they were first.
