Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Now back to normal!

The PS3 40 gig has very less stock right now. Its easy to check that.
Go to Circuitcity.com -> Video Gaming -> PLaystation 3 and 2
You will see NO PS3 40 gig in stock at all, only the MGS4 80 gig is showing.
Also go to Walmart.com -> Video Games -> Playstation 3
The only $399 PS3 40 gig unit is out of stock online and also not available in stores.
Its safe to say that PS3 stock is low and we won't see high sales in the next few weeks, nothing to worry about though as it only means Sony has sold thru its existing stock.

fluctuate more than likely kinda like how Wii sales did in 2007. But won't last as long as they find an average weekly median.



Sales will bounce back - BluRay is taking off, and the PSN now has a legitimate media download service. It's just the summer slowdown, plus restocking. Also, sales needed a breather after the hugely successful MGS4 launch.

When you look closely, though, Microsoft is in deep, deep trouble. The flagship 360 got a price cut and is now $299, a hundred dollars cheaper than the cheapest PS3. Sales should have exploded past the 200K mark. They didn't.

VGChartz data shows that for all of 2008, market share for the Wii is 44.9%, PS3 22.7%, 360 17.0% and PS2 15.4%. So Sony still has nearly 40% market share despite having the most expensive console out there, while the 360 is clinging to one-sixth of the console market. Those are appalling numbers for Microsoft, which had 30% market share back in 2005.



He has a really good point..............
