If the PS3 outsells 360 by 5-10%, are they actually catching up in the gaming market? If you figure that somewhere between 10-15% at least of PS3 buyers are buying for Blu-Ray and will buy very few games and accessories (a small percentage will buy none), what is the effect?

How much does PS3 have towin by in the Americas to really start catching up in overall games sales and the like?

 

Curious for opinions on this one....

 

I posted this elsewhere too, but thought it would make an interesting discussion.

Complete BS. Where do you get this figure from? Have you taken surveys? No.

The fact of the matter is the PS3 is no longer cheaper than Blu-ray players and if someone just wanted Blu-ray, they'd save themselves $100 and get a standalone player. Now I'm not saying Blu-ray doesnt push some people to the PS3 but to say that 10-15% of people who get a PS3 solely for the purpose of Blu-ray is ridiculous.
