I wasn't talking about 3D games you know...

Oh well, hehe

It's an interesting topic, though. Personally, I'd love to play 3D games as long as the glasses are not that annoying. If there was a way to combine 3D with motion controllers...

as I said in the other "PS3 selling on par with PS1" topic, that is only happening because of PS1 very weak take off at the beginning of the 5th gen.

That doesn't prove at all that PS3 is selling really good nor is on track to reach PS1 sales.


Awesome thread!

And u can see the future? u dont what could do the PS3 in the upcomings years.

You say it is possible for the PS3 to ship 22 million units? You know this would mean the PS3 would be up 70% over the year they cut the price by $100 and redesigned the console?!

It is fair to say, that it is not very likely for the PS3 to have the sales of the PS1.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

@ palitococo

No but I have some nice prediction skills.

I predicted the Wii would be this gen's number one back in 2005 while everyone was still skeptical.

There's no way the PS3 will sell 22 million units next year like the PS1 did in it's 4th year.

I don't think 3D will take off just like that.

It's still a "gimmick", you have to hear glasses if you want to be inside the experience.

In my opinion, it will take off when AutoStereoscopic TV's (3D with naked eye, no glasses) become affordable... Sometime next gen.

more "gimmmick" is the AutoStereoscopic technology ... only one person can see it and if you can add more people they must me still or else they dont see the 3D... they might bring some thing without the glasses but it wont be as good...

 

to OP:
PS3 is selling well... not as well as competition... one is the fastest selling console in the history of home console and the other has more then a year ahead and a price advantage given the similar performance... it natural for PS3 to be in third until now... i think it will, on the long run, sell as much as PS1 sold...

Looks like this thread does need an update on shipment comparisons.
