A Sony executive also mentioned not too long after E3 that they think adding value to the console doesn't have to be dropping the price. So perhaps Sony plan to boost sales with bundles and/or a slim model/new colours.
Another thing to consider is Sony as a company rarely makes it's sales projections.. So just because Sony say they think PS3 will beat last year by 30% doesn't make it so..
With the whole Activision business, it's true that the Playstation 3 doesn't bring in the revenue stream that Wii and 360 do but Activision won't just drop the PS3.. Although Tony Hawk RIDE is exclusive to 360 in the UK is it not? Perhaps they're testing the waters? Who knows.. It is a serious matter and it if the worlds biggest developers have no faith in the PS3 and are stating publicly that they are considering dropping support to the console, well yeah Sony do have some problems on their hands mostly to do with consumer reaction if word gets out to the mainstream consumer..
