next year. High price tag, lack of great games, bad marketing etc. In fact Sony is now showing signs of improvement which is a good thing when going into this holiday season.

I'm sure everyone will have a different attitude towards the PS3 next year, Sony will set everything right and will be at better position then they are this year. Since I'm not a fanboy I will admit the 360 did great this year and had great games out like Halo 3 and Bioshock, Wii has done phenomenal as it has achieved sales which not even the PS2 managed to do in it's first year. PS3 struggled alot this yearbut my god you can't deny that no matter how much you lot kicked PS3 down it just kept on fighting back. PS3 sold like 6 million in its first year with fierce competition and without it's key franchises. PS3 is only now gaining momentum and it will continue through next year. I have no doubt that Sony can reach there goal of 11 million by the end of this fiscal year which ends March 08.

Next year every console would have had time to finally show what their made of (especially 360). Yep I feel pretty damn confident about PS3 next year, I can tell you one thing though, System wars is going to be a hell of a different place by end of 08.

I agree. In fact, I predict that, by the end '08, most of the lemmings here will own a PS3. The '08 lineup of games for the PS3 and then into early '09 is nothing short of incredible. And at $399, for all you get, if you are a true gamer, you'd be crazy not to get a PS3.

No. By the end of 08 lemmings will still be lemmings. Everyone that wants to be taken seriously as a gamer will probably own one. :P

The PS3 will always get crap because Greatness is expected of this system. As for the Wii and the 360, the media just needs it not to suck like last gen for it to be a success. I do believe that the PS3s sales will get closer and closer to the 360s totals and the MS fans will have less to complain about but the beauty of the fanboy is that logic is nonexistant. So you will see plenty of bash threads, they will just have less credibility.

Next year? Why not now? It's always just around the corner for the PS3, until you find out that it never was, so you say its around the OTHER corner. I'm tired of waiting, make it work now! The Wii has it working, the 360 had it working, why is the PS3 the only one that needs these excuses?

Uhmmm...the PS2 crushed everyone in sales, has the single best game library of all time and that didn't stop people from criticising it just as much as they are criticising the PS3 now. So no...no matter WHAT happens, fanboys will be fanboys.

In the PS2 era, cows dominated System Wars. Now that the 360 has the best game lineup and the Wii has the best sales, cows are the underdogs here.

I really do hope your right. I really want the PS3 to succeed. I think it's a phenomial machine but just priced out of thier fan bases grasp. Plain and simple it needs more games a needs to lower costs. News of developers avoiding the PS3 and astronomical production costs have me worried for the PS3...

For all intents and puposes it is already dead...as a game machine. That is why you get Blu-Ray movies instead of games when you buy one.

In what way has the PS3 not got it working now. The reason he is talking about future is because the release dates of some of the big games coming out for the PS3 are NEXT YEAR. MGS4, FFXIII, LittleBigPlanet, GT5, Haze, Uncharted(this year). We will see next year what happens. I hope it all goes to plan for the PS3. ;)

My thoughts exactly.

The PS3 was supposed to dominate 2007. Blu-ray was supposed to become mainstream. And the Wii Fad was supposed to end.

Cow predictions are always right!:shock:

Hmm, how about over-focused on graphics and format, high price, bad games, few reasons to buy it over the 360, ripping off the Wii, how about those? And I recall quite a lot of hype for Uncharted, Heavenly Sword, Lair, Ratchet & Clank, Warhawk and many other games, and those all flopped (especially Lair).

LOL so true. Clearly you've been here long enough to notice a deja vu type situation. The year comes to a close, the PS3 has flopped on quite a few levels, and they're hyping the it up for the next year. Harharhar.

Not if the 360 got FFXIII and/or MGS4. This place would pretty much explode.
