| gebx said: http://www.psxextreme.com/ps3-news/4554.html The number of "PlayStation 3 is Doomed!" headlines reminded me very much of 2000 and 2001, when the very same articles - almost word for word - were produced regarding the PS2. I suppose I could focus on this obvious comparison and how the PS2 turned out... The PS3 and 360 are currently almost neck-and-neck. The two systems were throughout most of 2008, and while I won't predict what will happen in 2009, most everyone will agree that the PS3's exclusive lineup is stronger. The overall numbers put the 360 at about 28 million sold and the PS3 at a little over 21 million sold. In terms of new owners in 2008, I still hold to the theory that several million of those 360 owners aren't "new;" they're simply buying another 360 after their console died. Nobody is going to deny the 360's horrendous reliability so wouldn't this be a logical assessment? I'm not bringing up the Wii because it's not competition, as both Sony and Microsoft have already stated. Besides, after Nintendo's 33% decrease that was just reported, what I told everyone would happen is starting to happen: you don't sell hardware with no software. It's not 2007 and the PS3 didn't die two years ago. The PS3 doesn't need saving. It's locked in a battle with the 360 as every normal human with a functioning brain predicted, and there's no telling how things will end up
I believe this is true, the PS3 doesn't need saving. The same things where said about the PS2, and it turned into one of the greatest consoles in our generation. The PS3 didn't die in 2007, it didn't die in 2008, and most likely won't die in 2009! |
As the saying goes ignorance is bliss.
How much software sold on the Wii is huge compared to the PS3 and the 360. Go and look for yourself. Oh hand on you don't want to know. It doesn't help your arguement. Oh well.
