A lot of PS2 gamers yet to buy a current gen system

2 years into this gen and yet the PS2 is still the most played console. It's amazing how a last gen system can outdo every next gen system. Surely those 10's of millions of PS2 owners would have bought a 360 by now considering its an established platform, I wonder why those gamers haven't bought one yet ? oh I know THEY ARE WAITING FOR THE PS3 !Fact, over 90% of 360 owners are original xbox owners. I mean Microsofts saviour Halo 3 failed to sky-rocket 360 sales as most of you guys said it would, the month Halo 3 was released 360 only saw an increase of 20,000 units. Like I predicted most people who wanted to play Halo 3 had already bought one beforehand. Microsoft are failing to convince PS2 owners like me to jump in to the 360 and you know why ? maybe because 360 has a horrendous failure rate and dominated by shooters.2008 will be huge year and most PS2 gamers will jump the ship to PS3, I mean it's pretty obvious. Surely if those PS2 owners wanted to buy a 360 then they would have in the 2 years it was out especially now that 360 has got out all it's killer apps. Think about it most Xbox owners have bought a 360 and next year with the release of PS3's established franchises most PS2 owners will buy a PS3.Like me most PS2 owners are binding their time to get a PS3, I'd expect most people will buy a PS3 with the release of MGS4, GT5, FF13 etc. Most PS2 gamers will make the move to current gen in 08 and from the looks of it the PS3 will be the option :D

Remeber the PS2 had the success of the Wii. Everybody bought one for their kids as presents and stuff. Now those people are buying Wiis because they are cheap.
Though unlike the PS2, the Wii has crap games. It has SMG (which is selling like crap), MP3 (sold like crap), Zelda (sold decent), and a few others (all of which sold like crap).
People are buying the Wii as a present, or to replace their PS2 (because they have gotten older and a bit more mature and can actually buy their own console now) and they are realizing that the games are not that good. So the Wii sits and collects dust.
Check out the attachment rates and game sales and you will see what I mean. The Wii is a hot item, the games for the Wii aren't. People want a Wii for one game, Wii Sports.
