Only this gen can the last place gamers act like winners.

I'm guessing you're referring to 360 gamers since they are inevitably the last place console... but yes, it IS fascinating.

But not today. So really, PS fans been counting chickens before they hatch since 2006. Sigh.

Just because other swimmers currently have more golds, we still know Phelps is going to crush them all in 9 of the final 10 events.

But we don't call him the winner of a race he came in fourth.

Not sure you got the metaphor. The consoles are still selling, therefore the race isn't over. You're kidding yourself if you don't think ps3 is going to pass 360. The only question is the timeframe. A fair few people here seem to think that sales past a certain point in time don't count. Perhaps you're one of them?

Ah, thats the angle you use. I agree, PS3 most likely will overtake X360, but it has not yet happened (according to VGC). So if I talk about the situation, I can only say as it is now, I don't have the ability to look into the future. This thread even assumes the PS3 will overtake Wii, something that is highly unlikely. So unlikely that ethomaz who says this will happen ignores my offer of a bet over this issue. So even loud Sony-fans don't really believe that it will happen. But at the same time they are talking about #1 (what they are not for the gen 7 yet and maybe never) or that people in 2020 will only remember the winner PS3. Do you get why people are often annoyed by some Sony-fans? Current situation is: PS3 is third, but nearly tied with X360 (differences are in the margin of error, so I see them personally as tied) and Wii leads by some amount.
