i really am wandering why so many people think ps3 will fail with 360 only outselling it by few thousand in america..

Damage control, much?
Fact: No one expected PS3 to fail yet again in America. You for instance were expecting to dance in the streets this month because of the NPD numbers. Don't try to deny it.
Fact: The PS3 is being out sold 3 to 1 by the Wii.
Fact: At the current sales rates you posted, the PS3 will catch up to the X360 in 8 years. Of course it will be a bazillion units behind the Wii by then. Think about that.
Ownage is being served because no one predicted that X360 would eek out another win in America for the month of July. What happened to the uber increase in PS3 sales? It would appear the increase lasted a whole 2 weeks or so, since Sony themselves said they were up 135% in the first two weeks, yet they only netted out up approx 100% for the whole month. That implies a blip and a fall. August does not look good for Sony again.
QFT!!
This thread is a horrible attempt at damage control. Cows would've only used NPD numbers for ownage if the PS3 outsold x360 in July.
But I love these type of damage control threads.
