Tis' a celebration indeed! And who would of thought it would crush a Sony console?!

 

the gen isnt over yet >_>

Might as well should be........this gens standings are basically written in stone.... 1.wii  2.360  3. PS3   if we are talking about until the next gen systems release.

no matter what you say, this gen still isnt over yet

If you ask anyone that is sensible they will tell you the exact same thing......just cuz it isnt over doesnt mean everything hasnt already been decided already......will the 360 beat the wii.....hell no!!......will the ps3 beat the 360.....again hell no.....to think otherwise is being quite naive imo.


And even if the PS3 outsells the Xbox 360 one day, who cares except fanboys? The Xbox 360 did so much damage to the PS3. The situation the industry is in right now is probably even worse than the worst case scenario Sony made up in 2005. The losses for the PS3 are like 6 billion or even more (4.7 reported since 2006 + R&D + the profit made with PS2 and PSP till today). That is what Microsoft did to Sony. They destroyed their cash cow, the Playstation division.

furthermore they build up a new brand, Xbox, created a HUGE online network with probably close to 2 billion USD revenue / year and made a small profit this gen.

I don't think there is any way to ruin the fun for MS and Nintendo this gen.

Alright guys, quit with the bickering and back on subject. Congratulatory threads don't happen that often and should be free from this kinda mess. Save for some other thread.

I'll tell you what is over. The chance at Sony ever making a profit off the PS3. Even if it does outsell the 360, the fact is they had to practically give it away.

the gen is still not over lol

 

Right, PS3 has two years left to catch up the 6.7 million gap AND compensate for the last three (four?) years behind.

 

 

No really, this gen is over. Wii -1st / 360 -2nd / PS3 -3rd



God i hate fanboys, almost as much as they hate facts
