Looking thought the topic, here is why the PS3 is doing poor
- Expectations-The system was expected to be the best selling console by now, yet it is the worst selling by a good margin. But the 360 wasn't expected to do that well. It has done better then expected (or at least how much I expected it to do).
- Supply-People forget that the 360 was actually supply constricted. So while 360 could meet the demand, Sony had plenty to go around. That's not a good thing. Also, keep in mind the 360's first Christmas season where Sony wasn't.
- Price Cuts-Perhaps the reason why PS3 is considered a failure is the price cuts. Where Microsoft could easy by without a thought of one, Sony had to drop it's price $100 in the first year. Even whebn Microsoft cut it's price, it was only by $50.
To those people saying the PS3 was a success because it sold about the same as the XBox with out any games and a high price thag, that's a load of crap. Success can be mesured in two ways
- Systems sold
- Profit
