That was neither subtle nor trolling.

How many non PS2 owners do you think will buy a PS3 this month?

Furthermore, how many PS2 owners do you think will buy a Wii or 360 or even a Wii60 this month?

The logic proves nothing. All Sony needs is for the PS2 owners to buy PS3...any non-PS2 owners will just be gravy.

How many PS2 owners will buy a 360 rather than a PS3 for GTAIV? How many are fucking crazy? When PS3 has Blu-Ray? Quieter/cooler/free online gameplay/Home? All that life ahead of the PS3 with the big guns still coming, including all the series fans know and love from PS2 on PS3, while 360 seems to be running short of steam? My god, any PS2 owners that buy 360 for GTAIV and its inferior (yet expandable for $20, ooh) experience....must just be poor.

I am a PS2 owner that just bought a 360 four days ago.  There were several reasons for my decision, none of which involve me being poor.  I assure you, I make plenty of money.

1. Including Xbox Live Arcade, the 360 has more games I want.
2. When I want a Blu-Ray player, I will buy one. 
3. Xbox Live is a fantastic way to play games online, and is well worth the $50/year.

Also...I find it interesting that you present "free online gameplay" as a reason to buy PS3, then go on to say someone "must just be poor" if they choose a 360 over a PS3.  Doesn't make much sense to me.
