What?!?!?

The PS3 doubled its sales in December from November? During the holiday season? That's unprecedented!

Surely, there are only good times ahead for the PS3 now!

:roll:

Yep Sony is right on time, right on time to release another sku, a 120gig PS3 with duel shock 3 controllers in the package:

PS3 is gonna be last, and there's nothing you can do about it.

The same can be said about you...

He also said the PS3 was launching in the Spring of 2006. That was pretty damn accurate wasn't it?

Oh.

What a terrible post. Lets bring up any delay of a system or game when any statement about sales is brought up, and say lol accurate.

Oh. :roll:

He's stating that the PS3 had a huge boost in Dec.. but he's not mentioning the fact that the 360 had an even bigger boost w/1.26 million. (it outsold the PS3 by more than 400k in Dec). He's taking the same route as the cows with this "oh we're catching up" argument. Unfortunately the numbers say different.

btw, he's talking about the U.S numbers... Neither system did that well any place else..

Funny you mentioned that.. :) This trend seems to hold true this gen for Sony. Everytime a Sony exec posts good news about the PS3 and its sales, shortly followed is an announcement about another sku. Its almost as if they enjoy seeing progress only to shoot themselves in the foot.

Game On...

I can't help feeling, now that the PS3 has finally found its way out of the woods, its all a little too late!DAZZER7

Yep Blair Witch Project too late..."Why didnt they follow the river damnit?!?!?"

Game On...

So just wait? :lol: j/k People touting PS3's death are just fools. It did stumble and crawl out of the starting blocks which is frustrating given Sony's experience in the console market. I also disagree with some of the design decisions, but there should be no doubt that the PS3 is picking up steam this year.

Howard Stringer:lol:

Enough said.

People who think the Ps3 is not in for the long haul are plain delusional at this point.

Oh yeah, Americans: Consoles are sold in other countries too ya know? Most of which the Ps3 is outselling or very competitive with the 360.

It still has to cross the the 360 marshes and then scale the ninty mountains :?DAZZER7

:lol: Good one.

This is why we need cows.

"The PS3 Out Of The Woods" wow real nice

Everywhere that it's not outsold by the 360, it is being outsold by the Wii. Spin all you want, that is not a good thing.

WAIT A MINUTE!

"PS3 = BLU RAY"

"XBOX 360 = HD-DVD/DVD"

what the ps3 can't beat an outdated format? >.>

I guess cows are gonna line up any second....

Who'd of thought it Renegade trying to bury the 360 AGAIN and with such an unbiased and truthful *cough* *cough* source as Sony. Hilarious. Once again a cow will take anything Sony CEO's say as the gospel, sigh. Doesn't matter I'll have all three systems by mid-year, it's just sad to see how some people actually believe everything the company their fanboy love is attatched to says.

I think we all know the reason why Wii is going to Outsell everything and no one cares but Sheep. It appeals to the very casual gamer and its as cheap as chips. It is not classified as a hardcore gaming console, spin all you want that is a fact.

30% marketshare.....FTW!!!!11!!!

I don't even know why I legitimize the TC with any kind of responce, it's pretty obvious by now that he's just here to make the PS3 fans look bad and he's most likley some kind of Microsoft viral marketer.

Yep...

Sir Howard Stringer is clearly an unbias industry expert who has no ties whatsoever to PS3...

Whats next? Bill Gates claiming that 360 will win this generation!!!

I thought my post was fantabulous. It makes me sad that you didn't..:|

I could very well see this happening just like with the Wii, the 360 will once again be over taken by it competition. Hopefully the PS3 is really a ten year console and the 360 only cuople more years, it would suck to have to keep on returning your 360 over a 10 year console gen.Adrian_Cloud

If I'm still stuck with a 360 in 10 years time I thin i'll quit gaming al ltogether, it'd be THAT outdated. Enjoy your PS3 in 5 years time, when, going by the rate of sales right now yes it may over take the 360. Problem is, the 360 would have a successor by then and the PS3, really wont be all that important anymore.

Dude, in all seriousness... whats your deal? Instead of constantly trying to research all this stuff trying to say "mine is bigger than yours" blah, blah, blah.... why dont you go play some games and be happy with what you got? That says alot more and means alot more to Sony and the PS3 than you sitting here constantly trying to stir the pot.
