The biggest reason the PS3 may never catch up to the 360 is simply the fact that the PS3 will never be the PS2.

What I mean is that no matter who you talked to even people that had GCN or XBOX there was no denying the fact that the console that lead the way, that the press ate up and had all the momentum like a boulder rolling down hill was the PS2. This had an affect on the consumer. Consumers had to be convinced really hard to get a GCN or XBOX. The PS3 will never have this impression/hold on people. The 360 has already beat that. It isnt difficult to convince a consumer to get a 360 like it was with the XBOX. The Wii is a super easy sell. PS3 will never be an easy sell.

POSSIBLY... in America >_>; All the PS3 needs in America is an equal or lower price point before it reaches mass market. The rest of the world simply isn't gobbling up teh microsofts. Its relatively non-existant in Japan, and it's software is already getting toppled in Europe by both the Wii and the PS3, paired with the fact that the 360 was out a year before the release of the PS3 with no high def competition :/
