Well, that does look pretty impressive, until you realize that AGAIN the graph is skewed by the unsynchronized Christmas spikes.
So, Now with 299 euro price, with Blu-ray winning HD war, with BIG exclusive PS3 won`t catch PS2 on Christmas 2008 AGAIN???
(A) You have completely dodged my point, which was that you trumpet the fact that PS3 sales have risen slightly above the Wii's and PS2's launch-adjusted sales WITHOUT the disclaimer that it only did so becuase of an unsynchronized holiday spike.

You used your graphs to say to someone saying that the PS3 was selling much less than the PS2, "YOU FAIL." Well guess what? Your pathetic misdirection ignores the fact that even if Christmas PS3 sales let it rise a tiny bit above the PS2's July-level* sales curve, that doesn't mean the PS3 is selling faster. In fact, since the PS3 could only rise a LITTLE above it even then, it means the opposite -- it means YOU FAIL.

*or whatever.

(B) Actually, in point of fact I DON'T think that the PS3 will manage to rise above the Wii's or the PS2's WW sales curve again, even WITH the unsynchronized Christmas to help it. In Europe it might be able to beat the PS2's line again by a small amount.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
