I will let my sig do the talking.

Oh please. is your attention span so short that you've forgotten my first post you replied to? You're calling Sony the PS3 and completely ignoring the PSP and PS2. Why do you think they removed B/C from the PS3? so they could have a PS2 hardware/software buffer for these couple of fiscal quarters. PS2 makes more money from hardware than the PS3 does. You might find the PSP does as well. Sony cannot be viewed as the PS3 alone. They are probably more concerned about profit for the division than market share in this stage of the PS3 life cycle. This does not mean they are not concerned about market share or they would have stopped advertising the PS3 hardware (as you pointed out) and dropped the price of the PS3. If they did that, Sony would more than likely suffer disinvestment at some major level. This is a long term game. |
Funny, I thought Sony removed BC from the PS3 so they could, in part, afford an earlier round of price cuts to...you guessed it, gain market share in the 360/Wii/PS3 generation! Also, how would removing BC create the "software" portion of a PS2 buffer? Having fewer available consoles which play a given PS2 game does not increase software numbers, but then again this is the same roundabout logic you used for your last argument regarding Sony's advertising blitz that, apparently, is part of a larger mentality at Sony to limit PS3 sales.
It sounds so funny when you read it, but alas I am just paraphrasing. So which is it? You state in this most recent post that Sony is concerned with marketshare, but you stated earlier that for every console Sony sells over their (quite tempered) projections, the situation becomes more dire. These are mutually exclusive statements, it seems.

You seem to be a very silly person and therefore I'll not dicuss this with you any further.
Proud Sony Rear Admiral

OK then. I guess your rebuttal is a personal attack. Glad to see we could be civil about this. The cliche still holds, I suppose. You know, the one about how you know you've won an argument when the other party resorts to... well, I'm sure you've heard it. Sillyness isn't always bad, you know. From someone who uses such roundabout logic I take it as a sign of my own rationality. Thank you.

Japan is not going to make up that much
PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.
Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

the 360 is an absolute monster at the moment!
Didn't I read somewhere that the 360 outsolde the PS3 3:1, on Gamespot or something?
Looks like NPD is going to be doing some adjustments.
Still, 360 back on top for second place. Wii just dominating, like it always does.
It's just that simple.
