PS3 is DOMED.

Though I really want to know why it's really lagging behind in weekly American sales these days....

Well i've heard it could be undertracked in NA as well, but that seems unlikely because that wouldve been in nintendos last report as well.

i guess the way Americans are is that they want to support microsoft because its american. but i think PS3 will still compete well with the 360 in NA, but just not become as successful.

Once again, a person trying to make an argument on this forum about a console being a word that they can't spell correctly. 

 

These arguments make me LOL.

Actually, the "domed" thing is kind of a meme on the site now.  Someone made that typo like last year, and people always refer to it.  You'll see "doomed" just as often as you see "domed" on the forums lol.  The funniness is even enhanced by the silly alarmist intentions of most threads that used "doomed" in the titles.

So we reinforce one illiteracy with another? Isn't that how rap music got started?

hold on I'll be back just making a thread called "360 is doomed in EMEAA and Japan".

As funny as this is, it's almost justified. Why make a thread like this? Literally, the exact same thing could be done to the 360, especially in Japan.

Way I see it, PS3 is never going to overtake the 360 in the States, but that's already been established.

ugh, a) this isn't a troll thread, the OP is an adamant PS3 fan. But one bad turn does not JUSTIFY another, you're only saying that because it's against the PS3 ... fgs

I'm not saying it's a troll thread, I'm saying it's not needed. I said it's almost justified, I didn't say it WAS justified (worded carefully). And you really need to stop this "it's only because it's about PS3" stuff, Seece. You're above that and it's not relevant.

I hold my tounge more than enough on that subject thank you, and it's not even "almost" justified. The thread isn't put across in a good light and isn't word correctly, but a discussion on how the PS3 still can't manage to come up trumps in the US/Americas despite a massive turnaround elsewhere could be a good one for those interested.

Edit - Not to mention, 360/PS3 sales are 18/19.5 mill in EMEAA? Not sure how you equate the 360 as being doomed there. The 360 and PS3 have flipflopped there this gen, not the case in Americas.

So Xboxies are mostly kids because they cant even write communicable english ? I is worried..

Worried that Xbox will wins the generation and the next gen Top Selling 20 Million plus game is Viva Pinuta 4 while FPS and RPGs faded out into obibion

I stick my tongue into the waller more than the verb no thanks and its not even sanctioned. This thread is nonsense like Forza.

Edit - Not to mention, PS3 launched a year later and still managed to tops 360 in EMEAA. On a parallel comparison, the ratio shld be more like 18/25 million in EMEAA.

What the hell does "Domed" mean?

In a bowl of glass.  If you go Buckminster Fuller on it, the Domed is Geodesic

Fact #1 : X360 is the best choice if you are into FPS. US = ,,FPS LAND''.

Fact #2 : X360 released one year earlier than the PS3.

Fact #3 : Sony made the biggest mistake making it so damn expensive.

Fact #4 : Teh Cell'z power had a way too big impact there,thus making people afraid of buying a PS3,because there was too much of a risk of making them into Sony-Zombiez.

People know these facts since...forever.

I think a 2nd rectangular design like PS2 slim will prevent any future PS3 from being domed.
