I don't believe that a third place console (PS3) will outlast a first place console (PS2). It just doesn't make sense.

why

The first place console always lasts well into the next generation of consoles.  2nd place, 3rd place, and the rest never do.  It happened with the Atari 2600, NES, SNES, PS1, and PS2.  Everything else faded away much faster.

has anybody realized that SONY has crushed alot of traditional belief of last place consoles???, has anybody realized that this gen itself broke alot of traditions, we cant let the past tell the future, hence why SONY is in this situation

Rubang hit the nail on the head.

What traditional beliefs are you talking about?
