Are Sony Undermining The PS3?

What about my sig?

The PS2 may be making Sony a little profit but its not gonna keep selling for ever,Get rid of the PS2,Throw BC back in and boom a REAL ps3,not a gimped version and i know a 350 PS3 would out sell a 200 Xbox.

 

So when Devs start going 360 exclusive because the gap is about say 10 million or even 12 million,and 360 games start out selling PS3 games 5:1 then you can say "only fanboys care about market".

 

I don't need to say anything else about your sig-line.  It says it all.

 

Sure the PS2 isn't going to keep selling forever but it's going to sell for another year atleast. (Especially at $100).  Once the PS2 is discontinued then Sony can add in BC. Not until though.

Thats stupid,While sony is living on a dying console with no competitor,while the PS3 the next gen console has the same future as the PS2 has now,very little to none.

 

 

 

 

And didn't you just say above that the PS3 has the 'same' future as the PS2 does?  Which is none?   Yes.  A console that is tracking higher in units sold in similar time frames at a higher price has no future.  Spoken like a true level-headed rational (Unbiased) person.

 

I've seen more recent multi-platform titles sell in favor of the PS3 than the 360.  (Even with that vaunted 8 million unit gap). Do you really think that having a 10 million unit gap would drastically change a developers outlook. (Especially given the cost of developing these HD games?) .   Ofcourse it wouldn't.  The sales increase would be marginal at best.  

There also is no evidence that the sales gap will definitely reach 10 million.   As we don't know when Sony will cut the price.  (It could be as soon as E3).   There is almost a 100% guarantee that the 360 won't reach a 12 million gap for quite sometime (Which Sony would assuredly drop the price before then).

 

And since when do multi-platform games on the 360 even come remotely close to outselling their PS3 counterparts by 5-1? The 360 even on a good day usually struggles to get a 2-1 sales lead over the PS3 version (4 million additional users within the userbase all buying the same game MIGHT get the multi-platform games to a 5-1 margin...MIGHT, If ALL 4 million extra console owners purchase this game).  More often than not, if it does sell higher than a 2-1,  It's a port of the game released many months or years after the original version has been out on 360/PC or 360 as well.

 

 

Sounds like a bunch of fanboy delusion to me.

Never mind im not even gonna try to.
