Even if the PS3 does pass it the 360 in total consoles sold - it really doesn't matter .. Sony is more concerned about the Net Revenue then fans are concerned (obsessed ) about total consoles sold..
The PS3 still cost more to make then the Xbox 360 and even more to make then the Wii .. this means that Sony makes less per console sold then the other consoles makers .. Sony lost Billions absorbing the millons of consoles they sold for hundreds less then 1 grand it cost Sony to make a PS3 at launch because they knew they had no choice or they simply wouldn't sell them..
The PS2 was so far ahead of the competition that unfortunately fans that couldn't adjust to Sony's lack of dominance that they think the PS3 will end up like the PS2 which was under completely different times and had EVERY exclusive which the PS3 has lost many..
The Next Xbox will have Bluray.. and the PS4 will be more like an Xbox ( the new head of the PS division didn't want an updated version of CELL because devs don't care to spend more time and revenue programming for it - will instead opt for a more PC like console that is developer friendly and cost effective ).. To me when the new consoles come out the PS3 will be a forgotten thing.. I mean at the end of the PS2's life it still had all the exclusives and the best games.. the same can't be said today. Especially in the USA where the 360 has sold 42 million and the PS3 has sold 25 million..
The PS2 dominated because it had north America.. the PS3 ( and the PS4 ) can't dominate without getting American back - a tough task at hand.. even Google is predicting the PS4 will get owned by the Next Xbox.. and Google did correctly predict using their data that Bluray would win..
The PS2 was so far ahead of 2nd place last gen ( by nearly 100 million ) that they also controlled all developers ( had the best games ) .. These things are no longer true..
