Its the price!
The console costs more than people are willing to pay at the moment. The economy will destroy the PS3, not M$ or nintendo etc..
can't wait for this!
Make it less chavy though...
These figures are only going to get worse for the ps3 as long as the economy falls...
People are saying things won't pick up until next year...
That means 12 months of 360 dominating the charts over ps3...
By 2010 it might be too late for sony and the ps3. I wonder what the gap will be after this year? 15 million?
Yes.
But its not dead yet. Anything can happen. The economy might pick up - if it does, then the ps3 will start selling again.
If not, then i believe its doomed...
Have some dignity.
This isn't really a topic to fight fanboy wars over...
And not casuals...
wow.
First he admitted the defects the other day, now this...
Interesting...

You do make a good point mate - Its true M$ are struggling with 360's power, how would they handel a PS3's power AND an internal PSU???
Or how will they handle a 720's heat issues???
oH my god! I'm now suddenly w...
They make it on the games, LIVE, headsets, charge cables, hard drives etc...
Sony lose £25 on every console they sell...
nintendo make money over everything...
I want the Xbox 720 now!
I don't want to be playing on old hardware for years on end like those lame PS2/Wii gamers do...
I'm always first to upgrade to new hardware like the 360 and PS3.
We knew the 360 would crush the ps3 at retail.
Its simple really. the people buying consoles now, don't care about games, online services, brand etc...
All they care about is the PRICE.
360 + CHEAP = $$$
PS3 + $$$ = -10%
At least he admits (in a round about way) that there is a problem!
Man, i wish the 720 was here now so we could put all this stink behind us!
I play a little Drakes fortune, its not a bad game, but i prefer tomb raider underworld which i play on my 360.
I'm currently enjoying Dead spce on my 360 as well.
Basically, i prefer the 360 pad, and the online community. The connectiveness and the DLC which sadly the ps3 lack quite a bit of.
For instance, DLC for Tomb raider underworld is exclusive for the 360...
I love my ps3 for blu-ray though as my standalone samsung player su...
They failed on the combat though.
Look, gamers don't play Tomb raider to fight and shoot things, LOSE the combat altogether! forget about trying to make it fun. Forget about trying to make it work. LOSE it!
Pure 100% hardcore tomb raiding is what gamers want!
Epic quests with plenty of DLC and perhaps some 2-player co-op missions!

We all KNOW that sony/M$/Ninty all start thinking about the next generation as soon as their current consoles are out the door!
Its been that way for years!
We know M$ is well along in the design phase. We know they've been speaking and consulting with chip vendors, intel and IBM etc...
as has all the others.
STFU greenburg! You are the biggest money at M$!
I miss Peter Moore...
Perhaps the Wii is on the wane...
I'd love to see the Wii continue to sell less and less every year while the 360 ans PS3 sell more and more!
Without M$ he wouldn't have a great platform to publish on. He's a big headed twat that likes to bite the hand that feeds him.
I'd love to brake this idiots nose.
1.1 BILLION!??!
Holy SH!T!
I feel so bad for sony! Its not their fault!
They're stuck!
They lose $50 on each console SKU sold.
They can't cut the price otherwise they'd go under in debt.
And they cant not cut the price because people won't pay what sony are asking for it!
Blame it on the poor economy!
Those greedy bankers will end up destroying sony
If this is going to be the longest ge...
