What the hell is going on with the PS3?

Sony's not giving up at all, they're merely scaling back expectations to a reasonable level. It's pretty clear by now that they're going to come out on top this generation, so the company is also focusing on making the best of a good situation, and achieving profitability as soon as possible. Which makes more sense: losing billions of dollars in a childish attempt to sell the absolute most possible units, or working to stabilize expenditures to put SCE in position for an even better shot at the next generation?

I know it may be hard to believe, but this is serious business. Sony does not exist to please the wishes of its Internet fans. From a corporate perspective, it's largely irrelevant whether or not the PS3 passes the 360 in sales, since something like 90% of third-party games are going to both platforms anyway.

Also, if you believe the PS3 "lost" because it didn't have enough RAM... well, I think you missed the whole point of this generation.
