Sony come up with the 10 year lifespan for PS3 at the beginning of the consoles life cycle, and as the situation turned pretty dark for the console a few months ago when 360 started to oversell it, Sony really took this talking and gave it relevance.

"Don't worry, PS3 will be fine, is not seeling as much as we wanted and analysts expected, but hey, we got a 10 year lifespan plan, so at the end of it we shall talk"

My question: IF PS3 sales continue this bad (and bad means, selling this less comparing to 360) will it last 10 years? Won't it just be forgotten by retailers untill it just dies like Gamecube and Xbox?

So how is Sony supposed to keep 10 years on the market a console that doesn't sell*

* Doesn't selling means selling really bad as the time goes on, the same thing that happened to saturn, dreamcast, and well you know.

Its up to Sony now, because I have lost all faith in my PS3.

Why such interest?

I am still not amused, but i think they have there own goals in rather then keeping up with MS.

Plans > MS.

Futhermore are you working for Gebx by anychance?

What is Gebx?

And what means amused? LOL you use this a lot and I don't understand man.

My mother decides.

Seriously, if the thing can hold decent sales then they will continue to sell the system untill sales are very weak.... IMO the PS2 is still selling decently...

Even with a jaw dropping line-up for 09 starting with KZ2?

Don't lose it.

Yeah PS2... The market lider of the last gen. That's why it stills selling nowadays and GC&Xbox are dead.

Consumers do.

They decide if they want it or not, they will even decide if they want to keep it or more on to the next generation when that time comes.

consumers

Lol, nvm i thought you were his minion or alt.

But anyways on topic, I have no clue, but 7 years bare minimum.

I mean DAMN we dont even have one Final Fantasy XIII title out yet! :I

And amused = impressed / Not amused = not impressed lol.
