Normal, "casual" gamers, people who likes games, but not enough to talk or get informed about them, have this image of the PS3 being more powerful. This is why they buy it at close numbers to the x360, despite the price difference. This is clever marketing and a thing they should stress more and more, cause allows them an edge till they are capable of levelling the price. If or when that happens, this perception(PS3>x360) can assist the PS3 selling more than x360, despite producing the same graphics and having more or less the same games. |
Even if the PS3 is all and all superior, and shows, what it has shown hasn't resulted in people wanting to pay more for it, over the PS3, to be able to play it. A problem shown historically is screaming you have better specs doesn't work (DON'T make be bring out the "Do the Math" Jaguar ad to show this). What people see are the game, and how they look and play. And apparently this doesn't matter to people either, because the Wii outsells both the PS3 and 360.
