Oh no remember? All they need to do is take out that damn Blu-ray drive and the price can come way down!!!

<.<

ROFL! Those articles used to crack me up.

This article is great, aside from being completely worthless.

The fanblog is correct. There is still some hope left. However, excuse us if we're not exactly jumping for joy over the prospect of the PS3 squeezing out a 2nd place victory. Yippie. It's not doing better than WE think, it's doing better than the casual gaming market in the United States thinks though. It's actually doing worse than we think, if the entheuiasm around here for the console is any indication.

Sony is losing money (based on its last finacial report) and in last place. In what regard is Sony doing great? I can never understand the logic.

They still manage to sell consoles at the highest entry price this gen while only selling slightly less than their HD rival, are only losing $40 per console now (they were losing $240+ at launch), and their heavy hitters such as GT 5 and FF XIII will be coming out shortly. They are doing far from bad, and with future price cuts and cost reductions via the slim they won't be doing any worse in the future.

I was referring to the people who shout "SONY IS DOOMED" and all that other fun stuff.

Plus, I don't care if Sony is in last place, it doesn't change anything, numbers don't make how good or bad a console is.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that Sony are the victims of mishaps, its rather the result of bad strategies on their part that got them here (dead last).
They're not used to this, they're used to sitting on top of the world counting their money and waving at the ones below (everyone on the console market) so I don't think they know exactly what they have to do to get back in the game at this point.
Marketing is probably the biggest blimp to carry on their banner this gen, if they can get it right (and in the right amounts).

If this is how Sony is doing great, what would you say when Sony starts making money on PS3? or when PS3 sells the most consoles WW and make money on every PS3 sold? What you stated is that Sony is doing better now than what they were doing before. However, it is definitely not great.

This is what we call a bad article.

"The PS3 isn't selling poorly and causing problems for Sony! It's selling poorly for these reasons and isn't losing Sony nearly as much money as it used to!"

This is just some guy doing a web rant without bringing in any new information or new ways of looking at old information. I give it a 3 out of 10
