[QUOTE="TBoogy"][QUOTE="GARRYTH"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"][QUOTE="GARRYTH"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"] [QUOTE="GARRYTH"]it won't this year because simply the ps 2 is still alive. how come the 360 is strungling in sales against a last gen system. that tells you that A. ps 2 is still the best system which means that most 140 user base is still using there ps 2. you can't say that about the other two can you. there is now hope for 360 in this system war because 4.5 in the first 11 mouths with a console that is still alive to 11 million in 2 years with a dead last gen system. funny how no one under stands this. when the ps 2 dies you thick 140 millio people and still groing are going to just switch console. nopeGARRYTH
how do you know that all of those ps2 owners you keep talking about are loyal sony playstation brand fans?
the fact is most of them will be because the name sony. most of them don't go to game sites to see which games are for what system. there are goingto play the games on the ps 2 then when there ready to get a new one they will just buy a ps 3 bacouse they were happy with the ps 2. there not going to go in a store and be like i love my ps 2 so i will by a 360 nope they will pick up the new that plays there faverate ps 2 games and see the sequals of there faverate ps 2 games and buy a ps 3. so basically you're saying that most ps2 owners were casuals. do you really think casuals are going to flock to the most expensive console?
um it seems those casuals aren't buying the 360 either because 11 million world wide in two years is not much.besides the ps 3 will most likely have a 40 gig for 399 by the time the gta 4 comes out and im sure those casuals most likely bought other great games the ps 2 and most of them bought games like getaway ect. because they were like grand theft auto every one i now anyways. and they now they can play there last gen grand theft autos. ect. on the ps 3. plus casuals now that were last gen are either hardcore or layal to sony now. the casuals now now how bad the xbox1 was in terms of games so they don't now how well the 360 will turn out. then again they will see that grandtheft auto needs a hd so the ps 3 that 399 is more space than the 50 dollor cheaper 360 so for 50 dollars more they can have more space ect.Man, you are really trying to hard to convince (yourself? US?) that PS3 is gonna take off in sales.
You say 360 hasn't sold all that great in two years (it hasn't been 2 years yet, by the way. They could do 2 million more units before they hit the 2 year mark). But anyway, if true, what makes you think that ps3 will sell at $399.99 any more than 360 did?
That's right, you think 100 million Sony fans are waiting for a price drop to all run out and get a ps3. Well, obviously you know that is not the case. There are dozens of examples right here in SW that many of those ps2 fans jumped ship and hate Sony, now. More than likely, you know people like that in the real world, too (I've met many).
Face it, many of the casuals that Sony reached last gen are buying Wii now. Some are buying 360. Sony would have to do something drastic to get them back at this time, and a $399.99 system isn't gonna do it.
P.S.
How much you wanna bet the Elite drops to $399.99 if Sony releases a 40 gig console at that price? Better yet, there is a rumor of another 360 price drop soon. This rumored 40 gig ps3 is probably a RESPONSE to that rumor. Sony probably heard that MS is gonna drop the Elite to $399.99, and is readying the 40gb PS3 in case they do. MS will drop their price FIRST.
that is why when the ps 3 drop to 500 the sales jumped alot it even out sold the 360 for that mouth. so imagine the sales for a 399 ps 3 out sell the 360 even more. and who is jumping ship the xbox1 one fans that started to be bored and bout a 2nd syste ps 2 i now fanboy comment but it is true how many poeple that had an xbox1 had a ps 2 just about all of them but lovethere xbox for halo2 so now there are good games coming so the xbox fans have more of a reason to buy a 360. also how many people last gen was mad at sony (mostly parents) for having to buy more than one console so there going to buy even more deffective console i think not. now look what is coming out rachet and clank and naughty dog game there beloved games and nown game makers are strarting to comeout wich will make fans flock on the ps 3 for. see the fact is to turn 120 OR SO user base is very hard to do. and one gen can't do it. What are you talking about?? The PS3 has yet to beat the 360 in an entire month for sales. At least not in NA, not even after the temorary price drop.
You seriously need to stop posting and do your research before you spout off garbage like that.
