The ps1 won the 1st war, ps2 won the secound war, but it will be hard for the ps3 to win this war. The wii is still destroying ps3 sales. Very hard but its selling just as good as the ps2, its possible, but who knows anything can happen. All I know is that 360 wont win this war.

Mind you the PS2 wasn't out in all regions yet at this time.

MSFT still loses on the 360? Thats crazy.

If you calculate the repair bill, then yes, most probably.

Does anyone actually believe that?

 If you do I have some real estate to sell you

 Unlikely, PS3 sales will remain sluggish until it drops below $300 and $200 is where it will really accelerate, and its still a long way away from that level

 Hence his point, it took almost 8 months for the PS2 to be launched in NA and almost nine for the rest of the world, PS3 has only been out about 8 months

Well, the "estimates" we heard were from itrackr and I don't know why everyone accepts that without a doubt as truth.

Whenever the CEO says that the PS3 has become profitable; people shove it away as false. Oh well.

The MS losing money has to be about the repairs that their doing. (as well as the new warranty.)

So where did the 2+ billion loss from the Sony Gaming Division come from??

Are they saying that they've turned around 2+ billion in loses already?

No chance.

Sony LIE...
