This statement you made is much too simple. Your ignoring the fact that it took $813 to make a PS3 back in 2006 and it was selling at around $600. Add in what just happened with PSN and the factor that PS3 was losing money until 2009. PS2 was a success from day 1 and making profits ever since. But there's no doubt that PS3 will surpass 360 and maybe even the Wii. But making more profits than the PS2 seems impossible at the momment

I think this is the big problem everyone is having with this. Is there a point at which everyone stops reading?

When did I ever say anything about profit?

I even had an intro saying, "how far has the ps3 sunk?". It has nothing to do with sony profits, but with ps3 in the eyes of the consumer. The consumer apparently still feels that playstation is valuable, at least to the same value of ps2.

That is my point.

Okay I get it now. I never saw that in the OP though.
