Cool, if PS3 can stay on market for 10 years like PS1, it will sel over 100 million consoles

i have also pointed this out to other people and they called me a retard, lol, some people are just denying the power of the ps brand

Some people are denying kasz posts... >_>

Kazs always comes to positive PS3 sales thread to ruin it.

 

He said that PS1 was launched in US and Europe 1 year after it was launched in Japan and thats correct. However, he ignored the fact that PS1 was 299$ on its launch and PS3 was 599$ on its launch.He also ignored the fact that PS1 was launched before its competitors that PS3 was launched AFTER its competitor

And you're ignoring the fact that PS1 launch price of 299$ back in 1995 was much more money than 299$ nowadays.

 

 

True, but not really.  Even adjusting for inflation PS3 cost way more at launch.  Let me see if i can find the chart and edit it in.

Can't get a good picture of it and upload it but here's the article.

PS1 was only about 350 compaired to the PS3's price. 500-600.

 

So no matter how you try to spin it, PS3 was MORE EXPENISVE on its launch than PS1.
