Wait nope.... I always said there was absolutely no way humanly possible for ps3 to catch up in any of the time frame given back then.... and if I recall I was dead on 2012 the earliest feasible.... I never understood how people could even expect otherwise.... it was a mathematical impossibility for ps3 to catch up before 2011 anyway... back then....
And the guess of Sony being a new Sega is not that crazy.... Sony is in a really bad shape right now... don't get me wrong if it did happen it wouldn't be because ps4 is a failure but because they might have to seriously downsize Sony as a whole and refocus their core business... but that's an other debate....
