Take your pick carl

What do any of them have to do with how much PS3 will sell lifetime? Looks to me like your usual trolling...

Sales. Which are currently actually not inline with PS1, but above PS1... Which managed to sell over 100 Million units. Now, im not saying PS3 will hit the 100M milestone, but the future is indeed bright for the PS3.

Yet to hit a mass market price and still yet to see colours or its biggest exclusive. Also room for another redesign... And with 3D becoming pretty big and popular, it has that in the bag too.

Sorry Carl, but compare to PSP:

http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=PSP®1=All&cons2=PS3®2=All&cons3=PSP®3=All&weeks=240

PSP is higher than PS3 and is around 55 million, so PS3 has probably less potential than PSP in a best case scenario, since its undertracking the PSP, but even more problematic is the 360 is its competitor, so it has to face the fact that if 360 price drops, PS3's sales will drop off, so it probably has even less potential than the PSP overall.

PS3 is also limited by the fact that when the PS4 is announced, PS3 sales will drop off, as people will be looking to the next gen, so PS3 does have limits on how much it will sell which are clearly visible, and its nowhere near the PS1

Comparing a handheld with very little support and mas spiracy to a console with a fuck load of support and basicly no piracy... Okay, but hey! YOU gave me an idea.

Aligned launched eh? Comparing PS3 to PSP aligned? Just take a look at this graph.

As we can see, 360 has less potential than the PS3 and PSP... So PS3 will obviously finish up with more sales in the end. And when the next 360 is announced, 360 sales will drop off as people will be looking to the next gen or PS3.

Now please, bring your spin to this one, i find it amusing.

Less potential, but a year ahead Carl, see PS3 will have one less year on the market than 360, so while PS3 might have more potential, it won't live long enough to meet it, because as I pointed out when PS4 is announced PS3 is dead

So the exact day the 360 is discontinued will also be the exact day the PS3 is discontinued?

lolwut?

And how exactly when PS4 is announced, will PS3 die? You are once again... Wrong.

dude you are just putting words in his mouth

staff should know better, even i do

"PS3 will have one less year on the market than 360"

If you didn't know, the 360 was released a year before the 360. If PS3 has a year less on the market, then they will be discontinued at basicly the same time.

"when PS4 is announced PS3 is dead"

Do i even need to explain this one?

Now, where am i putting words into his mouth?

So the exact day the 360 is discontinued will also be the exact day the PS3 is discontinued?

have a good day, sir/ma'm

That's exactly what i am arguing against...

im confused here do i give it a *facepalm* or a momster LOL??

carl  he didn't say exact did he now

It's within 11 days of eachother.

Within 2 weeks of eachother. Which is about as likely as me appearing in Jenna Jameson's next porn.

He's not that far off, once NATAL and Wand/Gem fail, they will rush their next consoles, 2012 is more likely than 2011, but it will be here soon.

It would make sense if natal probably will be incorparated in the new xbox

Selling PS3, and profiting from it, years after PS4 is released: why should Sony abandon this part of its business strategy that with PS3 and PS2 clearly showed to work even in its darkest days?

Cause the PS1 and 2 were leading consoles that could survive gens and make a profit, while PS3 cannot

So PS3 isn't going to survive the generation,and wont start to make a profit.

Bookmarked this one too!
