well, if you are blind, i can tell you that it's the Wii!!

now, between Ps3 and Xbox360, i guess Xbox360 won....

You are ONLY presenting near worse case scenario for Blu-ray.

Opinionated, subjective.

As stated earlier, you still have your movie collectors.

The bottom line of your argument is entirely subjective/narrowminded supported by subjective/narrowminded points.  In fact, your entire argument is subjective/narrowminded. That is the problem. Please stop trying to find reason for your hate.  Is this what you always do in "real life," force worse case scenario for the PS3 and best case for 360???

Ok lets do subjectively. The music industry. Yes the first industry to adopt downloads widely.

The best ever year according to RIAA for CD singles sales ever was 1997 where they sold 66,700,000 units.

In contrast the first year recorded for singles downloads was 2004. According to RIAA that year downloads did 139,400,000.

Now supposedly the music quality is less on MP3. By 2006 the downloads for singles figures jump to 586,400,000.

Now bearing in mind that BLU RAY is tracking way way lower than DVD, the fact that Downloads for movies is kicking off when BLURAY is barely out of the blocks in terms of sales it's only gonna hurt BLU RAY. For CD's it was ok, because everyone had a CD player. For BLURAY it's disasterous because BLURAY isnt even classed as 10% of the movie market.

I expect the full first year of streaming and downloads for movies in HD to beat BLU RAY by sveral 10's of millions. And I expect to see BLU RAY in America to dive rather than rise. Also anyone who was considering PS3 for HD films only, have a cheaper alternative this christmas with the option of loads of available films.

I'm not blindly using fanboyism, but downloading is something that is far bigger than hard copy as the music industry shows.

Last but not least if your wandering about 2007 music comparison

CD singles 2007       =  27,000,000

Download singles 2007 = 800,000,000

All RIAA figures.

Wii is winning in the US, not the 360...

Now, if we talk about the HD console war, 360 doesn't have a strong gap yet, the PS3 could shorten that and either pass it or be close enough, or the 360 could use more moves to ensure that the PS3 doesn't come close...

The only fact that we get, is that right now in the US Wii is 1st, 360 is 2nd and PS3 is 3rd, the future is unknown...

Focus on gaining money so we can get better games and deals, and forget about the war, that will make ps3 owners happy, because is they manage to gain money with the console the sales will gain because thay will have more money to spend on ads, tv ads, and even better games, exclusive deals with third party compannis ect.

The reality is that we are now three years into this generation. I am sorry PS3 loyalists, but your team showed up late to the game. That had its advantages and disadvantages. They let Microsoft have a head start so they could bring a more powerful machine to market. They opted for strength over speed. That said a generation is typically five to six years long. So with all the consoles on the same field of play we can say the generation is half over now.

That means the trends are established, and not particularly likely to have massive swings in sales values. That means in North America the contest really is settled between the high definition consoles. Microsoft has outsold the PS3 by two to one, and has a lead of very nearly seven million. Further more the 360 is outselling the PS3 as we speak. So if we assume that the rest of this year pans out. The PS3 will need to outsell the 360 by a two to one margin for over three years just to tie out. Most rational posters agree that is not realistic.

For the PS3 to have any chance of usurping the 360s position a number of unlikely things must occur. Sony must drastically reduce their price. The Wii must collapse thus freeing up the off gamer group. The 360 must develop a stigma far worse then the ring of death. These things all need to happen for the PS3 to crawl ahead of the 360 before the generation comes to a close. That is less then a one percent possibility so 360 will defeat Sony in North America that is a fact.

The only accomplishment that should matter to Sony in North America is their percentage of market share. Right now they comprise less then eighteen percent of the console market, and they comprise sixteen percent of software sales in regards to the PS3. Those numbers must be maintained, and they most certainly cannot afford to slip. Retailers have a limit to their tolerance, and more to the point performance in the previous generation dictates where you start in the next generation.

Right now the PS3 is performing on par with the original Xbox and its truncated life span, and the GameCube. What should terrify any loyalist is that the PS3 can actually go comparatively lower. This past week the PS3 carried just a little over thirteen percent of the market, and with a poor economy on the card through the new year the PS3 may dance around ten percent. No the question is not whether the console can win. The question is can Sony get through this generation with their skin intact.

You will have a hard time convincing a retailer to give your next console a star billing if your previous carried less then fifteen percent of the previous generations market. The default logic is that you should get less then fifteen percent of shelf space. A great many of you are right when you say it isn't over yet. Right now Sony would be happy to have it over. The way things are going it could actually get much worse for them.

Actually your both wrong...that part is opinion based, some people would rather be playing Gears & Fable, some would rather be playing MGS & LBP...

SLAP america isn't the world.

AND What the hell.. the ps3 is one of the most awesome consoles ever with some of the best games, not to mention it has not been rejected by the world. It's simply far too expensive for the average person in many countries right now.

well ive gotta say thats one of the lamest comments ive ever read on vgchartz.
