Stop making stupid sales topics. Haven't you learned anything from the previous 6 you've made? Get a clue before you hit that 'new topic' button.

I can't see it dropping in price again until the end of the generation when Blue Ray technology is more affordable. It will be lucky to beat the XBOX, but will never take down the mighty Wii juggernaut! muhahahaha.

ANY Consoles sales would go down if it hasnt got a big release since March of 2008. The whole lot of people who bought Wii Fit woud tell you it's no a fad...and the whole bunch of people who bought Wii Sports Resort in Japan will tell you the same thing.

"Do people really think the PS3 wont finish number 1 in sales? Are you serious? "

Yes, Atl least I serious. The PS3 can considure itself luck If the PS2 doesn't kick it's ass this generation. I herd some one say that the PS3 is next gen so maybe in 5 years it may be closer to being number 1.

1. PS1 and PS2 weren't overpriced like the PS3

2. Over 50 million people disagree with that

3. Nothing regarding a price cut has even been confirmed, and Sony has repeatedly denied reducing the price of the PS3

4. Those NPD reports seem to show otherwise.

I never really asked you to give your opinion on the NA market. Even so that was a weak attempt at a come back. More than just FPSs are sold in NA unless you are blind to only seeing FPSs on the list. I don't even think there was an FPS last month :|

Weak answer. I thought allAmericams bought were FPSs? Why would it matter when they released. The market is saturated with them after all. People have dozens to choose from. I would love for you to try and answer my question though. How many FPSs are in that list?

All Americans bought the old FPSs when they were released so noone need to buy them anymore just wait till there is a new FPS then see how much it will sell compared to other genres.

The magic number is $200, regardless if they end up in 1st 2nd or 3rd....I know one things for certain....they are going to sell over a 100million systems, i mean their selling 10million a year with its high price, 10years on the market...possibly even longer considering what sony said about the PS2 they will keep it on the market as long as people are buying it

I knew you wouldn't answer. Its a hard thing to swallow when you are factually proven wrong. Americans buy lots of different games nott just FPSs. The thought that thatis all they buy is absolutely ridiculous. Though if you don't know how to count, how would you even know that FPSs is all Americans buy? Its not like you could read the numbers or what they meant?

1. C'mon people its the PS3. This is the sequel to the PS1 and PS2 which both sold over a hundred millions.

2. The Wii is a fad

3. The PS3 drops to magic 299 and its game over for the Wii

4. 360 barely even counts. Its the cheapest console, yet PS3 is still blowing it away in yearly sales.

I hope after considering all of these facts its obvious who wins this console war.

Even if Nintendo did not sell another Wii form this day forth, I really doubt PS3 could over take it before the next gen starts.

hahah, this was classic fanboy! I love it! lol. I like how it 'must sell' because its the sequel to the PS1 and PS2. hahaha,.. hey, did you know that the N64 was the sequel to the SNES? And imagine that the SNES sold way more and the N64 failed. Do you think this is possible with 'anyone' else's console? ... welp, you're looking at it, the PS3.



The Wii is not a fad, because fads don't last 3 years. It has unique motion controls that revolutionized gaming, even if the games were boring, it sold well, and now all other consoles have motion controls. Fad? no.. revolution.



The PS3 is not dropping price anytime soon, as confirmed by Sony CEO and reps abroad. Why? Because they are losing too much on it as is, technically, its killing their gaming department, from a financial profitability point of view.



360 barely even counts? Ahahahahaha! whats that? I said Ahahahahaha! got proof of this 'blowing' the ps3 is doing? Ps3 both sucks and blows. Yep, PS3 sales are dropping, 360 sales are rising, wii sales are dropping, and from the looks of it, this '360 that barely counts' is going to take second place by a LOOOONG shot over the PS3.





you sir, are a fanboy. Just because it's sony that must mean it will win. hahaha, ... oh so lame!

The PS3 is the only console I care to own this gen, but I am not blind fool. The PS3 will not finish in first in sales. But what I care about are the games. It could finish first in that department, but only time will tell. I just don't see it passing the Wii in sales. It could, but I don't see it happening.

i love how people think the price cut is going to magically propel the ps3 into sales bliss

here is the flaw in that theory:

1) Sony has stated it isn't coming anytime soon (will accept they may have been bluffing though)

2) The other consoles would still be CHEAPER

It's not a particularly impressive Blu-Ray player though ... and the stand-alone players will drop to $99 long before the PS3 does.
