The pricepoint of this console is perfect and it has everything a gamer needs. Sure, it's not quite the "media center" that the 60 or 80GB can be, but it's a great gaming console. If SONY had just launched this one system at this one pricepoint, we wouldn't need to get excited about SONY making a slight comeback. We would be talking about year-long PS3 shortages. SONY missed their big chance to create worldwide hype and desire. Now they're going to be playing catchup for a few years. I still have no doubt in my mind that the PS3 will end up outselling the 360....in a few years. However, if you're a life long Nintendo fan and you've had to put up with the trash-talking SONY fanbase for nearly 10 years, this is a great time for you (and me). That's something you SONY diehards just need to understand. It's not like you guys were the nicest competitors for that period. Even now, it doesn't seem like you've been humbled enough. When the PS2 was the big dog, all we ever heard were sales figures from the SDF. And now that the Wii is the big seller, we hear "sales don't matter, HD graphics and sound do." Just accept the fact that Nintendo fans have something to be happy about again. We've been "underground" for ten years, buried by SONY's systems. Let us have our moment. You guys can go underground for a while. We left the light on for you ;) |
You said "I still have no doubt in my mind that the PS3 will end up outselling the 360....in a few years"
I say "By that time Microsoft will already had released another console by then".
