If Sony made a sub $399 PS3 at launch- would it have outsold the PS2 and force MS out of gaming?

With the same Sony advertising? Wii would dominate and 360 would be the core machine.. PS3 would be distant third... their marketing somehow got really disconnected to... everything..

That baby commercial was pretty bad.  You must never forget!
