| TheSource said: Why would you stop counting last generation sales just because new consoles are out? I mean GC and PS2 have made significant inroads into Xbox marketshare since 2005, and you will probably see that again at the end of this generation when the company who is in second place but has momentum wants to build on it...PS2 is going to end up with 120-125 million consoles sold, GC will probably stop right around 22 million (only selling maybe 10-15k a week worldwide), while Xbox sells under 1500 worldwide per week I imagine. When you throw the numbers together you get a 175 million unit generation, 184 million unit generation if you include Dreamcast. |
Gamecube significant inroads into marketshare since 2005? Ok fine, you go with your extended last gen thing (I wanted to catch the essence & dynamics of last gen, and that's when there is decent competition in it, marketing for it and so on), and just ignore arguments about what makes this gen larger then.

Sound the alarm, its the doom and gloom. FF13 does not matter sure bud how about you step back in to the real world ok. Yet if they said FF13 to 360 you be saying its over PS3 is doomed. Its like with MGS4 ohh its sucks is nothing it wont help the PS3, MGS to 360 rumor ohh Ps3 is dommed they lost the best most important exclusive Ps3 cant win with out it balhh blahh. What Sony has FolksoulLair Heavenly Sword Warhawk Singstar Hot Shots Golf Eye of Judgement/PSeye/Home Little Big Planet Rachat and Clank Socom Uncharted Also rumored for 07 are Killzone, MGS4, and something Gran Turismo. Why is 200 unlikely, the success of their games divison and Blu-ray depands on it. "PS3 don't have any big exclusives this fall" thats some priceless Fud. |
Do you realize you just put in a golf game in there? I never said PS3 is doomed, so dont put words into my mouth. But I do say Im pretty sure it wont start moving in 2007. The unlikelyness of a $200 price drop of PS3 was not something I made up, its an analyst prediction that Sony won't be that bold and drop it $200 this year.
Btw, your list included titles that won't come out in 2007, so could you please name the big exclusives for 2007 for PS3? Cuz I say that PS3 can't counter Forza2, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Blue Dragon and Halo 3, all of which will be released during the summer or early fall (& all of which will sell 1mill copies in the US alone, except Blue Dragon which might sell no more than 1 mill world wide).
