I wonder what the life time sales will be. If they can drop it to $200 down the road I bet it can hit 60 million.

 

But what I find amazing, is how Sony started this gen, and how far they've come, they're easily going to beat the 2 consoles that came in 2nd and 3rd from last gen, with a console of $400. That is whats so amazing

Hmmm.... I disagree. I think everyone assumed the PS3 would dominate the market no matter the price. Granted MS and Nintendo wouldn't have been as successful at this price but the PS3 is still dead last in this gen. That's more amazing to me.

A lot of people doubted the PS3 very early on tbh. Not talking about this site, but there was a poll on another forum late 2006/early 2007 asking would the PS3 pass 10 million, most people voted no. But I dont know, they probably just idiots.

 

But it doesnt really matter, the PS3 IS doing well, its just when you compare it to the other 2 its not doing so well, but it is right behind the 360 at double the price, Sony needs to announce it for $300 at E3 to spark things up.

Perhaps the PS3 is doing well but if definitely isn't living upto the expectations Sony had hoped. The other is its competition... so yeah all of its competition is doing better.

Eitherway the $400 price is keeping more people from buying the console but at $300 Sony will lose money. Which is best for Sony?
