PS3 has second place locked on
I still firmly believe this, why? because frankly, xbox 360 is doing poor in terms of outselling PS3 by RAW UNITS ATM |
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by this. The PS3 has second place locked because the 360 is only outselling it by a little bit at the moment? Isn't that like saying "we're losing a dollar per unit sold, but we're going to make up for it in volume"?
I understand that PS3 fans want to believe the PS3 is going to survive, do well, etc. After all, who wants his/her favorite console to not do well? But this is starting to remind me of a Three Stooges episode where Curly is getting his clocked cleaned by a profession boxer, and when he gets knocked down for the umpteenth time, he tells Moe, "don't worry, I've got him right where I want him!".
Eventually the PS3 is going to have to make up the 8m gap if they want second place, and they need to get started doing it soon. The good news is the delta between consoles, percentage wise, will continue to drop over time, even if the 8m gap remains. It's a bit painful when you have close to a 30% difference, as it now exists at 360=31m and PS3=23m, but if it gets to 360=41m and PS3=33m, well, that looks a little better. And if they manage to hit 360=51m and PS3=43m, well, that doesn't look too bad at all. But you're never going to see Sony do what they did last gen where the PS2 was way out in front... and that's what troubles a lot of people. That Sony could fall from so high to 3rd place this gen.
