Watched The 360 demand die after the PS3 and Wii launch, Mwuahahahah!!!!!!!
Hey Gargamel by the time the ps3 comes out xbox 360 will be nearing that magical number that has spelled victory for all those first to reach it in sales(10 million units) and ps3 will be just getting out the gates with a million at launch.
Gargamel=The big bad ugly guy from the cartoon series the "Smurfs" and i felt it was fitting to the whole evil laugh u had going there!

@ dnglebry : 10 million consoles is not good for a years time that may be good for Microsoft but thats a bad year for Sony.Plus Sony will have 4 million consoles during it worldwide release so thats a 6 million console lead Sony will catch up before the PS3 has been on the Market for a year.

im not sure where your getting only one million at launch, here it says 3 million. did things change or are you referring to the 1 mil for regions?
"First, Sony told EB and GameStop that they would be supplying 3 million consoles at launch worldwide, 1 million more than they claimed at E3. They also broke it down by region: an even cool million for each Japan, NTSC and PAL. Please note that Sony informed retailers that these were launch day figures."

I cant wait till the 3 are all released. Bottom line, at release all systems sell well, thats just the nature of the market. A year down the line, it will be interesting to see how Sony will attract potential customers, cause one the launch hype cools down, all that is left is a $600 system a $80 games. I hope Sony has plans for the future, cause they are gonna lose my business if they dont think of something, quick;)

$80/game, im not sure where your hearing that from(grapevine?). anyway there is still ironically or not, one more fairly large game festival before the ps3 launch. i am expecting sony to have a strong showing at TGS which yet again could spark interest and carry them into and through their launch. i dont see selling 3 million units by december a problem for sony

something as simple as going over a friend's house and checking out the system can have an effect on people(if they like what they see). many people who weren't considering the 360 bought one anyway when they liked what they saw with its graphics or tested it out. the hardiest part for sony is like what your saying keeping people interested with the price being what it is over time. they are prolly not going to see many impulse buyers spending that much money at the drop of a hat, but when they have a potential fanbase of say 100+ MILLION people, i still dont think its going to be as hard as some may think...it'll prolly take a longer time for sony to once again regain and dominate the market. Especially when the one thing sony platforms are noted for....GAMES. when some of the major sequals are expected to release within a year or so of the console, it would seem likely that sony's fanbase will keep buying, but thats just what i think

Your not going to see PS3 systems on store self i sorry if thats what you tryin to get at svtstang there is too much demand for a PS3 system so they will sell all 3 million plus the little shippment they get in right after X-mas,before the new year.

well i hope those googliers dont just judge off of specs and assumptions. hell ps2 would not have been the number1 console if that was the case. it was fairly unanymous that xbox was graphically better. people should see before they believe

Does anybody read posts b4 they reply???? If u read what I SAID, I SAID that there is NO DOUBT ps3 will be sold out when its first released, NO DOUBT that it will be slod out through early 2007. ALL I AM ASKING is what is Sony gonna do to attract new customers. $600 is a lot of money to a lot of ppl, and something will need to offered to remain competeitve down the road.

i remember how MS kept dropping and dropping their expected sales numbers as time when on, what noobs.
But they all do sort of the same thing, and that is rearrange what you thought was real, and they remind you of the beauty of very simple things. You forget, because youre so busy going from a to z, that theres 24 letters in between... You turn on... tune in... and you drop out...

i replied.....the more anticipated sequals are going to release within a year or so. sony's fanbase is HUGE and if you've been fans of series like FF, DMC,MGS,killzone, GTA, madden, warhawk etc, all the more incentive to buy. then there are other games like assassin's creed, heavenly sword, unreal 2007, resis'fall of man, heavy rain etc that look promising. sony has and will continue to have a strong game lineup. combine that with free online play, interchangable harddrives, downloadable games/content, backwards capiblities for both previous systems and it seems there is quite a bit to keep people interested. if in the years to come blu ray is the successor then yet again another added bonus. its really too early to wonder all the "what if" or "how to," but it seems they would have enough in their tank to keep people busy

Goods points hade, cant argue with anything u just said. Sont does have a great lineup of games, and thats the one thing im interested in. FFXIII will probably force me to buy the system, no matter how much i fight the urge;)

true,but thinking that way would say MS would definintly crap on sony due to their system being easier to develop for and them having the headstart so ...
