If the ps3 had its killer apps and was 300$ at launch. Would it have beaten 360?

No. The Wii just appeals to a much wider audience. Before the Wii, the casual gaming market had only been touched on by consoles.

hands down

a blu-ray player at $300 would be a steal

oh and the games are nice aswell

PS3 still won. It is the best of the 3 systems in my opinion. It is even better than pc in my opinion.

Im downloading the sacrifice as we speak.

Yes it would have easily beaten the 360. But, oh well. They launched with very few games and a crazy stupid price so last palce is what they deserve.

It would have crushed the Xbox 360 if it launched at $300 with a solid lineup of titles.Stevo_the_gamer

Actually it would have crushed it if it launched at $300 without a solid line up.

If lets say The ps3 had. Mgs4 Demons souls Infamous And god of war 3 at launch and was 300$ Would it have won the console wars? I think it would have. Assuming the xbox was the same price. Right when the xbox gets RROD the ps3 would have gotten more fans and thus it would have owned the 360.DogOfWarIII

At $300 even with no games the PS3 would have out sell the xbox 360 far to easy.

If Sony had launched at that price point, MS would have had to included wifi, free live service, and HD DVD drive to compete. Ohh the possibilities.

Lemme get my alternate dimension crystal ball out and see... hmmmm....

Anyway, it probably would have. I mean, all by one of my friends has a ps2 and the other one had an original Xbox. You have the 100+ million people with PS2s vs the minimal amount of people who bought original Xboxes. Didn't the Xbox cost $399 still in 2006 when the PS3 launched, too? Even if it were $299 like the PS3 is today, the PS3 would have crushed it because of fan loyalty, preferred exclusives, blu ray player built in, and all these other things that the Xbox doesn't have.

It probably would've been the same old stuff as last gen, only KZ2, GoW3, and UC2 probably wouldn't have looked as good as they do now, considering the developer support would've been so over the top that they wouldn't need to push the hardware to beat Xbox's exclusives (since the number of developers would have been negligible in comparison to PS3, causing Xbox to suffer once again). I'm not trying to be a fanboy, it's just my prediction.

So we are playing the what if game?

Okay how about this if thats what the ps3 gets then heres the what if.

The 360 was 250, hd dvd built in, never had a higher then average failure rate, came out with all the games it did and the stuff since then at launch...would it have won? and wouldn't by extension hd dvd have become adopted?

no

*falls over laughing* I gotta love that. With what future amazo magic psychic powers did you find this out? can I have that alternate dimension crystal ball you got?

Wait. There has been an "sales winner"? And it was the 360? :shock:

Last time I checked the Wii had a more than healthy lead, and the "race" for second was far from over...

Look at it this way. It didn't and that is why it is in last place. I guess that bending the truth about current isses is not enough for PS3 fanyboys but now they feel content in changing the events of the past to mask all the failures. Anybody else seeing similarities to George Orwell's 1984?

When the ps3 was first released correct me if im wrong weren't Blu ray players going for over a 1000 dollars ? For that sole reason i believe they would have flown off the shelves for 300 bucks . raiden509

in this land of make-believe would the cost of making each ps3 and selling it for only $300 be taken into account?

Yeh, but that didn't happen...racing1750

your point???

It probably could have ridden on its brand loyalty and beat the 360 if that happened four years ago.

I think things would be different if it had been cheap at the start and had more ogf the exclusives we have now. That being said i think it very well could of passed the 360 or at least be even with it.
