I (ironically) have to agree with eugene.

The X360 won't be slowing down next year. The PS3 was *supposed* to sell 5m units on no games at $500-600. Sony has had to drop the price twice, because sales have been so ungodly abysmal.

In the same timeframe of the PS2, the PS3 has floundered, horribly. It took a $200 pricedrop to even get it close to the X360.

The question is if people will buy the PS3 @ $400 throughout next year or not.

$200 price drop? I fail to see this. It launched at $500/$600 and now it's at $400/$500. This is a $100 price drop anyway you look at it.

LMFAO!! I remember PS3 fans arguing against this logic earlier this year and now its the other way! This was a pretty big point of contention for a lot of folks so you'll have to pardon me while I get my kicks at the sudden reversal of position.

At least you have it right now~

 

@Topic,

I do believe the PS3 will have a better year in '08 than it did in '07, but I don't for a second believe that it will double its sales. Big releases, the new price point, and a decent holiday performance will imo propel it to an aproximate 17% year over year increase in sales which based on my projections should equate to around 9m units for the calendar year.

 

 

 

 When didn't I have it right? Are you confusing me with someone else?
