If you're holding out hope for MGS4, FFXIII and GT5, then you'll be sorely dissapointed I'm afraid. While these will ring in the dedicated hardcores, the console they're on will prevent them from drawing in the much larger ambient audience that was receptive of both the PS and PS2. You'll be hard pressed to win over any casual or very many core gamers with these aging titles. As I said before, even the N64 had sure fired hits like Super Mario 64, Starfox 64 and LOZ: Ocarina of Time.

PS2 is fast declining as the Wii fills its niche and the PSP is another sad story all to itself though while making a profits is dropping off at a fast pace from the holiday sales. Sony can only leech off them for so long.

This persisted belief that Sony can in anyway compete financially with MS has gone from sad to almost insulting that you would expect anyone to swallow such a load. I really wonder if this is an argument you're partaking of or just an attempt to feed your own wanton beliefs that the PS3 will dominate as its predicessors before it.

As for Blu-Ray profits, last time I checked VHS was outselling Blu-Ray and HD-DVD combined, that's not very much profit to go around I'm afraid especially when you divide it by all the other companies invested in Blu-Ray.

The stupidity of some people amaze me I love reading when people only name a few games that are coming to a system as being thier salvation. There are alot of games coming to the market for the PS3 that are for casual and Hardcore. Also last time I checked GT5 wasn't a hardcore game since when did racers become hardcore?

As for your pathetic financials statement even when the PS3 posted their $833 million dollar loss for the 2nd quater financials the company still almost made 1 billion in profits if I remember correctly. So I guess you are right the PS3 almost made them close their doors cause I could barely get by with that kind of profit.

And the blu-ray market it one year into existance as well it is future money they are looking at not todays. Seeing that the movie industry in total is bigger then the game industry if the get 25% od the dvd market which is more then possible they will be making a ton of money. The only thing holding that market down atm is price but now alot of new movies on Blu-ray are coming out at 24.99 compared to 17.99 DVD only a matter of time before some of the market share swings that way.
