My how times have changed. I dont know how PS3 did it but they really have had a extraordinary comeback that frankly any other console that was in their position 3 years ago would have already been bankrupt! Remeber that EGM article 3 years ago titled "Battlestation" and it showed a tomatoe being thrown and smashed all over the PS3? The article was about the lack of games, the poor online service, blu ray is dead and its high price point.. Man how times have changed, the PS3 is poised for possibly the biggest comeback in console history and might very well be on their way back to 1st place or atleast 2nd place

I know it was lacking games, but I dont think Blu Ray was ever considered dead.

The EGM guys run the 1up podcast, so if you listened to that over the last 3 years, you know they pound Sony every cast.

I liked EGM, it's a shame about them.:(

Yup... a few months ago I started getting Maxim in its place. I've read that magazine for 15 years.

Things change. HD DVD is dead. Obama won. EGM has been wiped out financially. The Wii is the best selling console of all time. And Jeff left.

The PS3 was never in 1st place to begin with, of course, but the PS3 sure as hell is making it's way to first place in what really matters for us, the games.

It's the fastest selling console. My bad. Either way, general consensus was this was going to be Nintendo's last gen, especially when they unveiled the Wii.

well Guess Sony is starting to recover from its bad start with PS3 everyone knows 1st place is out of their reach and they only got a slim chance to beat 360 to 2nd place but as a real champion for the last 2 generations if you are going to lose do it with honor :P.
