| Hus said: - Don't confuse ignorance for generosity. - LOL yahh they wont help casue you say so, opinion as fact hilarious given how foollish your predictions are. PS3 is at $300 at its lowest, cant you see that its still really high for many people. You dont know how much money they might lose if any at all so stfu about it. There is a simple math equation that says if they can or cant cut, you dont know it so dont pretand to know it. - FF13 will be a huge hardware mover, we all know that. Can it be for PS3 what FF7 was for PS we will know soon enough. - Most on here agree on +10million for GT5, no game has gotten there cause guess what GT5 will be the one to get there - They want profits, they wont rush to cut prices as long as sales are ok. Theya both driven by $$$ and both will want to milk as much as possible from this gen. Its quite simple, you just complicate everythign for your self with all your bs. 2010 $150 arcade, $200 elite $250 super 360..... PS3 $250/300/350 360 has a good 3 years of price cuts before it hits $99.99 and a potential succesor is released. |
I'm not, the PSP is just a better seller than the PS3, so it is being generous when comparing the two, as the charts clearly show.
Actually they themselves have been saying they are losing money on PS3, but hope to start making money next year at the current price point, so a price cut would put them right back in the red, and they have been losing money just check their financial reports.
FF13 won't be a huge hardware mover, it'll move some in Japan, but not in the West as its split with the 360, and in Japan Famitsu and MC are saying less than 2 million, lifetime, so not anywhere near like what FF7 or FFX did.
No, GT5 won't reach 10 million, even MW2 on the PS3 won't get to 10 million on PS3, so GT5 just isn't likely
They want profits, but profits require sales, and profit margins, price cutting and declining sales won't net you profits.
No three years of price cuts isnt there, As we've seen MS will probably cut Arcade to $99 and Elite to at least $249 soon after the Holidays, you've seen the specials they've done in recent weeks, these are signs that more price cuts are coming, then later next year they'll probably cut the elite again down to $199 and also release NATAL.
Their next gen will partially be decided by the success of the Wand and NATAL, mediocre sales or a failure will lead to earlier 720 and PS4 launches

Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
