Plus, the 360 is getting price drops now and the PS3 will NOT have anymore price drops for a while despite what the fanboys think. The PS3 will not catch the 360 for at least 2 years, if ever. Plus, the Wii has already won this generation and Sony will still have an overall loss for this generation after having huge profits the last 2 generations. Also, BluRay will not be some huge technology that makes Sony lots of money like so many fanboys believe it will. Solid state drives and faster download speeds will increase the popularity of downloadable content and there might be something better than BluRay that comes along in the next couple of years before BluRay can even make a dent in DVD sales. |
Thus far this year the PS3 has outsold the 360 around 3:2. That means if the Xbox360 reaches 8,000,000 this year, at this rate the PS3 would outsell it by 4,000,000. This is at a higher price point and without key titles that are, quite frankly, better sellers globally than anything the Xbox360 has to offer.
Your clearly a Sony hater, but lately people like you can only be bitter because everything Sony is doing so well. Sony will make a profit on the PS3 by the end of this generation, and the gaming division in whole will keep covering any further PS3 losses. Digital downloads WILL NOT be global any time soon. Speeds, higher fees from internet providers for higher usage, and just the ability to have a physical copy of your movies stops that from happening. Also, people still buy most their products from stores, and stores like BR over DD because it comes people coming in to stores. Blu-Ray will be marketed with every HDTV that sells this Christmas and well see Blu-ray rise quite a bit before the average person even knows digital downloads is an option.
