What moron thinks the PS3 was a failure? lmao smh

The PS3 ended up surpassing the 360 in worldwide sales around 2011 or so after coming out a full year after & costing twice the price for a while $600. That was a major accomplishment & win for Sony. Now compared to the PS2 it was a failure, but then so is every console in history lol. That said, the PS4 is killin' it & retook the UK & USA from Microsoft which had a 60%-40% lead on Sony in those territories during the reign of the 360 vs PS3. That said, PS3 still ended up catching & passing the 360 last generation. So Sony owns the console market & seems it always will. PSX-PS4 1995-2016 & beyond....

I guess I'm that moron.

You aren't taking into consideration how much money Sony lost to simply get a userbase at par with 360.

For the most part SOny made losses when PS3 wasn't selling at par with 360. By the time PS3 was selling enough to catch up to 360 PS3 was selling at a break even. Sony did have to lose $billions to stop PS3 selling like Gamecube. PS3 was in a death spiral after all.
