IF you are Sony hater - LEAVE this thread. She doesn't hate sony, she might be a little anti-them but not a lot.
IF you DON`T believe in PS3 success - LEAVE this thread. Success is subjective, IMO GC was a success; it made money.

 Haha! A LITTLE anti sony? Please, thats like saying the Wii is a LITTLE popular. And no, just because someone posts here doesnt show they care, in fact it can show the opposite as you can post to completely disparage the product in question which is what GGE seems to love doing.

Ok Bladeneo, you're right, I was twisting them too much. You're right.

And Crazzy, what?

January 2001/2008

Ps2: 193K
Ps3: 173K

February 1st week

Ps2: 51K
Ps3: 23K

That is 244 vs 196

Overall for this year, Ps2 is 48K ahead of Ps3, PS3 is not ahead.

I don't know where you got those numbers, unless you were looking at only Japan or something, but these are totals for the 6 weeks:

PS3: 1.099 million
PS2: 1.060 million
Difference: .039 million (39k)

So he's right.

Have you guys even been LOOKING at the chartz lately? Ps3 tracks Ps2 easily, and will have 30M + after this year EASILY.

http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=GC&reg1=All&cons2=PS3&reg2=All&cons3=PS2&reg3=All&weeks=70

Ps2 will CONTINUE to track alongside with PS2, and it will curve up a LOT SOON. http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=GC&reg1=All&cons2=PS3&reg2=All&cons3=PS2&reg3=All&weeks=120

Just look at the chartz this week! SMG is at 13th place, and hardware droped MUCH.

Ps3 has a MUCH HIGER attachment rate, and within half a year it will begin tracking ABOVE Wii.

Look, Gamcub lost MUCH sales after first year. Wii will also do that.

Just look at the Wii Fanboys in this thread! Like Oyoyoy, using the Japan numbers only to make Ps3 look bad, because he KNOWS the Wii will be dead soon!

I know, now you Wii Fanboys are gonna call ME a fanboy! That's your only excuse, because you KNOW I am right. Ps3 has MUCH great titles comming up! MGS4, FFXIII, GT5 and much more! What does Wii have? Same Mario stuff as last gen. You believe people are going to believe that? HAH! Good luck.

Oh, and spare me! Stockpiling? There was a thread that proved it was unreal, but you keep saying it!


Well done Crazzy! You're one of the few people on this site who has a clue!




See, there is total silence. People have nothing to add, because they know it is right



You're crazier than CrazzyMan, and that's hard to do. That's why everyone is speechless.

You say that people will love FF13, MGS4, GT5, all games that were big last gen, and then you say, people won't like the "same mario stuff as last gen." Interesting.

Everybody stockpiles. Anyone with small amounts of knowledge into how businesses works knows that. They probably stock 50k each week. The dips we see are from shipping problems.

I'm really waiting for the Wii to die so that all these people can be proved right. That'll be day worth living through. (end sarcasm)
