Forums - Sony Discussion - honestly now ... how close will the gap get?

The Gem and Natal will be the players

and a ps3 price cut, which I don't expect for quite some time.

i'll predict that by the time 2012 comes , Xbox will be at 0 at best Ps3 will be over 9000!
and Wii will divide by zero which will result in a nuclear explosion

SONY GEM & NATAL... WONT BE GAME CHANGERS!!!!

I totally agree



If the Gap ever reach 4-4.5 Millions, I am expecting another price cut for Xbox360. That is one battle that Microsoft is not willing to loose. But if there is no price cut for the Xbox360 then the Gap will definitely reach 3 Millions maybe 2.5 by the end of next year

The gap will most definitely be reduced to 2.5 million at the end of 2010. And then after that the gap will slowly wear away until PS3 takes the lead.

so you dont think the PS3 will overtake the 360 at all next year? thats nuts..


you do think the PS3 will pass the 360 during 2010?  thats nuts...

Many, really many people wait for Gran Turismo 5 release.

2-3 mln. PS3 advantage in Japan alone. This year PS3 outsold x360 in Japan by 1.5 mln. units. Next year will be full year of price cut effect and with games like GT5, Yakuza 4, SO4, MGS:R and other.

end of 2010 for Xbox360 ~ 45-47ml
end of 2010 for Ps3 ~ 46-48ml

Agreed... both will fail imo.  I think the difference is Sony is using it as an add on and still has a great focus on games - which will inevitably help bring the gap closer and the inital take over.  MS is focusing on Natal as the next big thing; which the tech is good but on an old console it won't have an impact.  MS will fail because they are trying to  broaden themselves with to many casual ideas.  They rely on third party games - which are mostly on the ps3 and they have their own recycled ip's that are either Halo or Gears.  So their focus to dominate Sony will be/is thei downfall.



  Unleash The Beast!  

End of 2011 Sales: Wii = 90mil, 360 = 61mil, PS3= 60mil

After March we will have a much better view of how 2010 will end up. Tho Ill go with this:

3million after March 2010.
By end of year they will almost be even.

I do not see Natal selling consoles...period. I can see it having a high attach rate tho, but Im not sure how many people will go into the market JUST for that.
