Forums - Sales - Five BETTER reasons why 360 will have a longer life span than PS3

wow there are A LOT of ignorant ps3 drones commenting here.

Clearly, nothing pisses people off more than when you tell you truth.

Sad they can't face the reality that the playstation brand is not doing good.

Sony has NEVER made a profit on the ps3 and it has wasted all of the ps2 profits and they have lost 50% of their marketshare and they are in last place STILL. 

This is a PISS poor business strategy

1. Basically doesn't exist in Japan.....360 isn't going to survive forever with only 2 markets effectively helping it.

2. M$s first party. Does it even exist anymore?

3. As PS3 sales continue to grow, tossing money at every 3rd party isn't going to keep them from developing on the PS3, because it's just lost sales

4. Doesn't matter if Sony's games don't put up Halo-like numbers. I'm sure many gamers would like to have a plethora of high quality games that sell just 2-3 million, than have a *couple* games that sell 9 million. Like Sony has always said, they don't invest in one game as their "identity" but put out games for just about everyone. Nintendo = Mario, M$ = Halo, Sony = ? and that's in a good sense

5. PSN has become/is a viable platform for online gaming, and it's free. And if gamers want to buy something, they choose when to buy it, not paying $50 up front.

1. Two markets make up for the poor sales in Japan. The gap is 8 million consoles and growing.

2. Well they published a lot of games PS3 owner would love to have.

3. They don't need them to stop developing for the PS3. But if you can get the same games on a cheaper console why buy the PS3?

4. Sony doesn't have an option because their game don't have outstanding sales. Although you know Sony is hoping Gran Turismo sells like 10 million.

5. Free is great... but it cost money to offer those services you know. I bet Sony is currently mapping out how they will charge for online play on the PS4. Microsoft has proven there is a lot of money to be made doing so.



^they did publish games that ps3 owners would like..... and ps3 owners are getting em like NGS2

i dont want it point was how do you know games like gears or me arent next? this gen is different. did you know this time last gen ps2 had 70% market share already? XB and GC both had 15% devs cant overlook any system anymore. not even for money as SO4 proves.

Exactly, the major advantage PS2 had was a reasonably price console and major exclusives. The Sony exclusives get decent numbers but probably not what Sony hoped and they aren't doing a great job moving hardware.

NG2 btw was not a very popular game. It only sold like a million copies even with tons of marketing. It won't sell much better on the PS3 either.



reason why the 360 is going to get hammered when the ps3 price is cut worldwide:

because its already cheaper than the damn wii and it only outsells it 30k worldwide every week. all ps3 needs is a $10 price cut and it will be ahead of the 360. heres looking forward to microsoft cutting the 360 price to $1 and then boasting about how they outsold the ps3 by 10 units every day hahah, the only one laughing is nintendo!

Funny how 30K a week became a gap of 8+ million consoles. Microsoft is actually making money so why can't they laugh?

 



So your reasoning says the PS2 will last 100 years more...ok.
