All he's doing is asking if Sony's plan to continue with the PS2 and sell both a high-end and low-end machine was a good choice. He even asks you to discuss, and straight away you all jump on him.

Ignore the numbers he posted for now and actually discuss the topic at hand, was Sony's decision a good one?
I personally think it was because the PS2 covers a lot of the losses that Sony are making on the PS3 and it still selling very well (see last months NPD).

Some people really need to calm down, sure there's a little flame bait there with the numbers and the title, but can't you all stay civil at all. I dwear most people do NOT read full posts.

Obviously it was a good one.  The PS2 was an amazing machine both from a sales and entertainment standpoint.  But what I want to know is if Sony actually planned to sell them both together.  Or if the PS3 had taken off like they had thought (5 million in sales w/o a game lol) would they have discountinued the PS2 immediately.  Either way it's conjecture and not a lot to talk about.  Let's add PS1 sales (I'm sure somebody somewhere is still selling a boxed one) and N64 sales too.  Then we can prove that Sony dominates .
