Well they will start making profit on each console sold very shortly but no-one knows if they'l ever recoup the losses |
Well I just quote a Sony spokesman, he answered the question, if they will ever recoup the losses of the PS3: "No way" end of quote. So, I guess: no.
Imagine not having GamePass on your console...
and yet, it isn't double at half the price.
This will only take a moment of your time. *steals your watch*
Is MS worried?
I mean, this is the second week of that.

Your comment would make a lot more sense if the most expensive or even middle tier 360 model was half the price of the PS3.
The lowest tier 360 model is half the price of the lowest tier PS3 model. The most basic 360 model does not account for 100% of the 360 units sold to customers, so I think your point has a flaw.
I'm not a fanboy, I just try to tip the balance in favor of logic and common sense.

It's amazing what the PS2 achieved with a years headstart. You're damn right a price cut is needed for the PS3.

The price is the ultimate deciding point(consistently with most products) anyway you look at it, especially for the average consumer. The fact that the 360 has several models should encourage other demographics (finding the consumer that gets discouraged is difficult to determine).But regardless of the sure consumers, the average consumer is the real meat. The arcade version has already been said to be about half of the total 360s sold this holiday season. If this turns out true, then there it is I guess.

Sony should worry about cutting the manufacturing costs of the PS3. If it can be dropped farther they would be great.
Sony is bang on target to reach their 10m sales in the fiscal year (April 08- March 09).
Does anyone else think they actually didn't expect or want more sales? (i.e. knew the price would affect the sales to this degree almost a year ago).
PSN ID: T_Gears
End of 2009 ltd sales:
Wii = 67-68m
X360 = 38-39m
PS3 = 34-35m
Prediction: The PS3 will surpass the 360 on weekly sales after it drops to $299 on all regular weeks (no big releases).
