If you worked for SONY what would you say instead?

3/4 years on, it's fine to talk about any hiccups that happened, back then obviously the best thing for sony was to make out it was all going well, now though they're doing well and in a position to admit they made mistakes and that they won't happen again, but insted they come out with this tripe.

"We fucked up and had no games in the beginning, but look at us now, bitchez!"

lol. Okay hired!

1. yes i knew it was not a new generation of consoles, but they were superior in graphics and abilities

2 and 3. there was lots of ps2 hate in the first year, also when it was first released there was more dreamcast's around than ps2's the gloom and doom threads can still be found to this day, you are right tho i should have put it had an advantage not that it dominated, see i am not complety silly, at least i can admit my own mistakes.

predicting the rest of sales for ps3's life is silly, none of you should be writing it off yet i know 14m this year, 2011 i expect a decline, as ms will have some form of price cut, but sony will combat that somehow, either way my point is no one should under estimate the ps brand.

I couldn't disagree more. 8 million difference in total sales, 40k difference in weekly sales means 200 weeks until the PS3 catches up the 360 if all stays as it is, but obviously the PS3 will not be selling numbers worth tracking in 200 weeks time, and if the patterns of this generation repeat the 360 is going to have a price cut in September and start outselling the PS3 again, and then it will be the PS3's turn to be domed.

the gap is not 8 million!!! people irritate me so much, the 39 million figure is the amount of x360's made, there are only 37 million sold, which means the gamp is nearly 6 million at the moment. vgchartz only just updated their figures, you should know that is is more accurate right now, and tmmorrow ps3 data will be more accurate hopefully.

Altho I already said overtaken or not it will not matter at all, I think It will be pretty funny seeing the little fanboys hide back in their holes then comes back full energy when the shit storm is over when it does happen just like when the ps3 slim did some gr8 numbers last holidays.

Sorry to irritate you through my laziness, I am aware that the gap is not 8 million but I couldn't be bothered going to the homepage to check exactly what the gap was (Im not on my own computer and it's really slow) At a gap of 6 million, it will still take 150 weeks at current weekly sales. Being as I am predicting that the 360 will start to outsell the PS3 again in September, I hardly think those 50 weeks matter.

sorry i am just upset from some silly comments made here thinking ps3 won't keep on selling well after this year. it already says in the thread that the silly sony exec was using sold ps3 amounts to shipped x360's, that is where all this silly 8 million gap theory is coming from, we all know ps3 sold 3m+ in december so it is impossible for it to ship less than at least 33m the prediction was for 35m shipped ps3's so those ps3 sales may yet get adjusted up, not down.
