Forums - Sales Discussion - *PS3 Dead In America?*

thedaftman on 04 October 2010

Please the DS kills the competition in all areas everyone should stop making consoles because none of them will capture the market like the DS. The DS doesn't even need hardware sellers because every week its guaranteed to sell. So all in all the PS3, PSP, 360, and Nintendo's own Wii is doomed to NIntendo's DS. And nobody dare say that handhelds do not count it plays video games and was made for strictly that purpose. 



I am no good at grammar =) 

DAMN IT! This EP is such a good idea

@jneul and @kain_kusanagi.

Yakuza 3 is an amazing game too.

And IMO PS3 has most better games in 2010...  360 had for me just Reach, ME2 and Alan Wake.

It's just selling less than the competition.  It's far from dead.  It's really difficult to argue that it's dead when games like Madden keep increasing in it's relative performance against the 360. 

 

I guess Halo and Gears are forces to be reckoned with in the US and will be for a long time.  For me, it's all the 3rd party exclusives like Yakuza, Valkyria, and Rorona that make the lineup for the PS3 that much better. 



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

PS3 might have had the most exclusives but unlike 2009 360 actually has better games this year, so that plus the slim effect is what makes the 360 outsell the PS3. Wii has always outsold the PS3 everywhere so don't act suprised about that.


whaaaat forgive me while i laugh a couple of times....

ON TOPIC KEEP ON WISHING FOR PS3 TO DIE, BUT GT5 PLUS PS3 WILL OUTSELL X360 WW MARK MY WORDS

As I said in my opening post I don't wish for the PS3 to die at all. I want it to be Wii>PS3>360...I just said that as of now it looks like PS3 will be #3 almost every week in America for the rest of this Gen. Worldwide it is doing great though.


you are still wrong about better games on 360 this year we have had GOW III, Heavy Rain, Modnation Racers, Sports Champions and soon to come GT5.

x360 has had Mass Effect and Halo....

finally you are wrong about wii>>ps3, wii is cool until you hit your late 20's trust me mario and zelda have been around for a long time (since the 80's)

I never said that the 360 had better games this year Lol.

Your comparison are biased. Wii is Wii, PS3 is PS3.

PS3 is UP 30% in America and this is not dead.

When PS3 start selling under 10k per week you can tell it's dead. For me your point is nonsense.

An opinion is an opinion and I respect yours...anyway PS3 is dead in America compared to the 360 and Wii.

Also I am not biased because I own and enjoy the PS3!
