superchunk on 05 September 2008

We'll see in 2012/13 when both stop producing their current machines as the new models have been out for a year by then.

Really it seems like the only thing Microsoft thinks is to beat Sony this gen, maybe u shouldnt open ur mouth to much beacuse i wonder what excuse they have if they dont beat Sony this time.

Wanna know what happens when a company gets desperate??  Look at the Blu Ray deals that put HD DVD to rest...

Ok here is a scenario. What if Microsoft is ahead for 5 years and sells more software than ps3 overall...and eventually ps3 catches up and is ahead for a year...before next gen consoles come out? Does PS3 win the next gen war?

5 Years???? before PS3 outsells 360, in your dreams maybe

Well 3 years where 360 has been the number 1 HD console are done. 2 more is not out of the questions at all.

Its Sonys fault for coming to the party a year late with the PS3

I'd say it has a 65% chance of coming second in America, and a 25% chance to come second worldwide.



As in go buy us some coffee.

the ps3 will finish second

They do have some healthy numbers ahead of the PS3, and the price cut might help increase sales. I think it will be some time before PS3 outsells the Xbox360 even with low Xbox sales at the moment, PS3 is not selling enough.

So RROD was a wise decision by Microsoft? I see. And PS3 has been out 22 Months not 3 years.

Like a selfish lover, when Microsoft is finished they will not care about who still has a ways to go ...
