I actual find the comedy in how serious you take this, while claiming just to be an analyzer. I didn't say you "feared" this happening. I said it almost comes off as a fear (further complimenting Jordahn's point - which looks to be spot on). Anyway, PS3 will likely sell less than it's comptetitors this holiday, no argument there. But since it'll be up YoY, has a motion controller in healthy standing right now, and it's biggest exclusive IP still set to release for the holiday, I'm not sure, "it won't sell well compared to the other two", are the proper words. |
I don't see what he's so off base about.. PS3 WON'T sell well compared to the other two over the holidays. That's just the way it will be. Xbox 360 will recieve a major boost from Kinect for a little while, not to mention it should be more affected than the PS3 by the Black Ops boost. Then you have Wii, which is ALWAYS a major seller around the holidays, and now it is starting to have a healthy lineup again, including DKC which should be a major hardware pusher, and certainly the biggest Wii game since NSMB.
PS3 has already had the Move released which hasn't done much, understandably, and doesn't really have much gamewise besides GT5.
I think this holiday it'll be Wii, then 360 right behind it, and PS3 a distant third. However, I do think once the Kinect effect wears off, PS3 will pull ahead of 360 when the dust settles, and will probably have a longer lifespan than the 360. It'll all depend how well devs support them really.
