Bullshit. He actually means

'We need to beat X360'

Which doesn't translate into weak at all.

“History has shown us that once you get to £199 you hit lift off. We can do some serious business and this kick-starts that. Getting to £199 was a defining moment for the PSone and PS2 – this will be no different.“

Except the PS1 and PS2 were dominant consoles, the PS3 isn't, and won't beat the 360 this holiday.

I don't want to enter an argument about whether it's their weakest market or not (I didn't participate in the dabate in the other thread). But weak is just context-based.

It's their strongest market when compared to other european markets. It's their weakest when compared to their competition in a particular market.

That's about it. No need to take it too seriously.

I get the context, it's still stupid though. There is a threshold and just because the competitors are at a certain level, doesn't mean they even have the opportunity to get to that level.
