Nah, they're better off waiting until fall. This PS3 ban won't go past 10 days, so they're not going to get people looking for a PS3, not being able to find one, and picking a 360 insted.

It's not up to Sony on whether the ban will go past 10 days or not. It's up to the judge. LG wants all the PS3 destroyed before the 10 days are up. So it won't even matter if that happens. It's not just people with out Ps3 who might get an XBox 360. It's people with a PS3, who might pick one up, especially if they want to play games like Halo Reach, Gears Forza 3 and any other 360 exclusives.

A lot of people do not understand this simple point. The ban is for 10 days but can and will be extended by LG. LG will state they want the ban extended and the judge probably will approve. LG is also in the position to have those confiscated PS3 destroyed if they wanted. This is serious business and not something to take likely as most people believe this will not impact Sony but it does. This could also lead to precedent that can be followed in the US as well.

"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
