I did some calculations and came up with the assessment that the PS3 sales will rapidly increase through out next year. The reason for this, i believe, is beause the PS2 will be moving on to its 8th year on the market. You will see that the amount of games being produced for the system will massively decrease, thus enticing them to buy a next gen console. The PS3 already has a large lineup of games on the way in 2008 and there are sure to be more. The competition on the other hand have not yet confirmed a very large selection for the next year, instead they are putting all their eggs in their basket this year. Also PS2 owners will se that the PS3 is getting some of the franchises that they have grown to love over the years, like MGS4 and GT5. 08 is a key time for the next gen and it seems like Sony has already taken it by storm. :Dsnorlaxmaster

wow. sony is the only game publishing company.
By 2009 there will be so many Wii's in this world the french will have to change its meaning due to epic confusion.
The PS3 can't even beat the X360. Its got no chance in hell of beating the Wii.
I did some calculations snorlaxmaster
First cows said PS3 would win at launch in spring 2006. Then they said fall 2006. Then it was "wait till 07!" A few weeks ago and after E3 its "Sony will pwnz in 08". Now its 2009? :shock:

Sorry man, my bad. ;)
Waiting for Sony to release a screent shot of a rubix cube in high def so the cows can say"teh hd rubix cube game will pwn in 2011!" :shock:
It's funny because every month that goes buy its taking longer and longer for the PS3 to win. For instance the beginning of the year it was, well at the end of 07 PS3 will win. Few months in it changed to, "at the begining of 08 PS3 will win". About a month ago I was seeing people say at the end of 08 PS3 will be the clear winner.
Nowthis is the first 09 post. If Wii can sell like this without titles, imagine if they get titles. PS3 is selling horrible without titles, it hasn't proven it can sell with great titles yet though. That's the key difference. PS3 can win but it will take a lot of price cutting and unqiue games/add ons to attract people away from the cheaper/waggle control Wii.
I'd like to see those calculations. :lol:IbacaiThey are too awesome to be viewed with the eyes of a mere mortal, but soon you will see, what the prophecy has foretold!!! :D
If by "win" you mean "outsells the 360 to secure second place", I guess it's probable if Sony continues to cut prices and secure more worthwhile exclusives. Nothing is touching the Wii anytime soon though.
-Spock-
This, of course, runs under the illogical assumption MS won't be doing anything after 07.
Whats This?!?!?! An Nonbeliever!?!?!! And for the record, since when does "BY" 2009 mean "IN" 2009???It's funny because every month that goes buy its taking longer and longer for the PS3 to win.

Well the Ps3 has a lot of catching up to do. We'll see if it gets those people buying. Another price cut would do it. f Another 100 dollars or so.osirisomeomiYou speak the truth that the PS3 is far behind, but still, you see the massive possibility that the PS3 can succeed!!!! :D
I've done some rough calculations as well.
Wii is roughly ahead of PS3 by 6 million consoles.
2009 is roughly 17 months away.
In order for PS3 to catch Wii, it's going to have to outsell it by an average of 352,941 consoles per month. PS3 would be lucky to sell that much in a month total, much less beat the Wii by that amount.
Conclusion: Not going to happen.

But notice my use of the words "I guess it's probable". I too have some doubts. :wink:
I've done some rough calculations as well.Same for the 360 which is 7 million ahead, or if you take last weeks sales the ps3 beat the 360 by 6,000 consoles. at that rate it will take the ps3 22 years to catch it. :|

It's part of their "just wait" campaign. I'm surprised they haven't said that Duke Nukem Forever is gonna be a PS3 exclusive, will be Sony's Halo, and will pwn in 2091.

lol, so true
I don't think there are any games announced for 2009. And with current trends going the way they are, Wii will dominate. Read. (That's for those who wish to quote me on idiocy.)Video_Game_King
Resident Evil 5 has been pushed back until 09 so that counts in my book.
I do think 2008 will be Sony's year... but it won't be enough to surpass the 360 or Wii.TDLlama
Cows swore that 2006, 2007 would be their year. Now after E3 its 2008 and this guy is saying "wait till 2009?!" Lemme guess, 2009 comes and goes then it will be "but 2010 and 2011 have the most potential!!" :shock:
The Wii is already 6 million ahead of the PS3 and it's selling very well and way more than the PS3. It might be ahead of the XBox360 by 2009 but the Wii will be way ahead of both by then
I'd like to see those calculations. :lol:Ibacai
All he did was put 7 zeros on the end up PS3 current worldwide sales. "Tee comicated mathemeics!11!!!"

Holy ****!!!1 :o
PS3 will only have a chance to get 2nd place over 360 IF sony can recapture Japan.
7thSIN
Their biggest market its not JPN. In order for PS3 to beat X360 because of JPN then it would have to destroy X360 in month to month sales worse than what the X360 is doing to the PS3 over here. PS3 is only ahead by 600,000 units in JPN and behind 6,000,000 units over here.
