Forums - Sony - Will 2008 Be Playstation 3's Year Of Domination?

I doubt the PS3 will pass the 360 in this year, but 2009 is a different story. They'll have many of their big releases next year. FFXIII should be paid special attention to, since it is probably the only thing that could boost the sales in Japan.

About Japan :

- Nothing will put an end to the PS3 bad sales in Japan. Sales will increase in some time point (price drop/AAA title) but wil stay really lower than Wii sales.

- No, the PS3 DOES NOT need Japan to beat the Xbox360 sales. PS3 is outselling the Xbox360 whatever you count Japan or not. Nevethless, Japan sales will help the global move from +10 to +30k (maybe 1 or 2 +50k).

the 360 has a huge userbase in NA, a price drop by MS in NA will will hurt the ps3 chances of coming back. Like i said, to pass the 360 by next year, sony need japan badly, thats their weapon and they must do anything to fix taht ; price drop, smaller ps3's , better games, colors, they need and fast.

If you consider closing the gap to second place as domination, then yes, 2008 will probably be Playstation 3's year of domination.

something you think will or will not happen in the future, can by definition not be a fact

This question is strictly out of curiosity. I'm not trying to upse anyonet or rain on their parade. Why is it that PS3 fans and Xbox 360 fans frequent talk about domination and winning when they are, of course, talking about the struggle for 2nd place. I realize that this is the only interesting race left; the other being pretty much over but it just struck me odd that the title was "Will 2008 be Playstation 3's Year of Domination" not "Will 2008 be the Year of Playstation 3's Domination of the XBox."

PS3 and 360 fans keep taking pot-shots at each other because we can no longer see the Wii fans way out in front and therefore can't involve them in the fray... while the "Wii" folk casually trot toward the finish line, we PS3 and 360 advocates wrestle with each other in the dirt.

360 IS OPERATIONAL AFTER 37 DAYS!

I rather enjoy the irony of people declaring the PS3's success as coming as soon as some sequel to a successful franchise is out, yet each time one of those games comes out, the system only gets a brief boost and then returns to past sales levels... Meanwhile, "non-games" like SingStar are released, get slow-but-consistent sales, and an actual more-or-less-permanent rise of PS3 units sold is seen. For all the laundry lists of games ending in 2, 3, and 4 brought up by those declaring when PS3 "dominance" will begin, it's the unique titles hated by the most vocal PS3 demographic that are actually the system sellers...



Sky Render - Sanity is for the weak.

its not really a fact until the end of the console war. for now its just your opinion. Also if i were you i wouldn't get so cocky. Try comparing ps3 exclusive list of games to xbox 360 exclusive list of games for the 2008-2009 year.
