I'm always a bit baffled when people predict doom and gloom for a gaming console especially so early in the product cycle. Back in 2008/2009 the same thing was said about the ps3. Publishers and developers threatened to cut support because sales where that bad. And look what happend... it pretty much caught up to the 360

Yep, PS3 surpassed 360 in the Global, but we are talking about Playstation, the most popular Console on the Planet, apart from NA.

If PS3 was able to outsell 360 in the end, being released 1 full year after in NA and Japan and 16 months later in Europe, with an insane expensive price at Launch and always more expensive till the end, harder to develop for, with multiplatform games looking/performing better for the majority on 360, what do you think PS4 will do ?! MS got weaker, Sony got stronger, PS4 was released at the same time, more powerful, more friendly to develop for, better multiplatform games, very competitive price, etc etc etc  Playstation Now is coming... how can you see an inversion(what happened with PS3 and 360) considering this and in the light of new facts/rumors --->

For real though, can the drill man up? I read most of this thread and the hilarity that ensued.

Another NPD month to melt the predictions of X1 supremacy.

So 3 years = soon? man does that mean you could be looking at a 13 year old girl thinking.... Soon?

I would think btw once the X1 launches in Japan/China then the US numbers could come down a bit as MS splits its focus between even more regions making sure there is games which appeal to everyone on their system.


I would look at a hot 13 and thinking soon... but that would be weekend soon not 3 years =]

lol and july has destiny beta and tlou so itll be an easy win.. their is nothing seperating the two in august unless gamescom brings something. so itll most likely stick with routine and go ps4.

september will be an absolute bloodbath
