The PS3 is not the Xbox360. Atleast in Europe the people prefer the PS3. And in Japan too.
The PS3 was to expensive so the people waited some may got a Xbox but now they can afford a PS3 so they go out and buy one.
There wont be a repeat in 2010. The Playstation brand is the stronger Brand. And the potential is bigger.
If MS wont do something quickly very quick. This Christmas. Then it will be almost impossible to defeat the PS3. Natal would come too late.
As the PS3 was weak noone from the Xbox360 side even replied or almost noone because they were sure that the Xbox will win but now the Xbox shows significant weaknesses and everyone seems worried.
I was sure from the beginning the PS3 would win. And I am sure now. And if the WII HD comes really in 2010 then the PS3 has a chance to win the whole gen even if this is unlikely but its possible because the Wii would stop selling and the WII 2 would be next gen. The Xbox360 has a Chance if they drop the Price to 249 and 149 this Christmas. But I think the Xbox Price was never an issue and the people now that the real cost come if you buy the Xbox.
I guessed some months ago that after 1 january 2011 the PS3 will be second and the numbers look really good. Just because the Xbox couldnt really win some ground and make just 3 Million difference in those 2 Years it dont mean that the PS3 cant outsell the Xbox by a big margin.
The Playstation Brand is WAY stronger then the Xbox Brand and thats a fact. If th Xbox Brand would have been really stronger then thr PS3 would be dead already. Dont you see MS made everything right except the RROD. They were cheaper they marketed their Console as a Gaming machine.
They buyed good Games. Even GTA is semi exclusive. Most Multiplatform Titels had even a better grafik not by much but noticable. They got FF 13 mass Effect Halo Gears of War Fable AND STILL they dont manage it to destroy the PS3. In that time the PS3 had not much good softare MGS 4 ok Uncharted was unknown so what else had they in 2007/2008. Why why is MS so weak ? I dont get it. Nintendo took the Crown from the beginning Sony took it from the beginning BOTH struggled with their 3 Console.
MS made two Consoles and still they have to worry to become third. Dont you see that MS is weak. The brand is weak MS made something wrong. They should have won the battle a long long time ago. That all Indicates that the Xbox Brand is much weaker then the Playstation brand.
Microsofts peak year was 2008 and they never will get back to the heights of 2008. Sonys peak year is certainly NOT 2009. It will start stronger in 2010 then in 2009 and if Sony makes a Cut maybe 50 Euro/Dollar in autumn 2010 and the Wand will be supported with good Software. Its all what they have to do to be the winner in Christmas 2010 and if they win Christmas 2010 its Finally over.
