I will be the first to say there are flaws with all 3 systems, sony doesn't have a strong enough library for its high price point, the wii doesn't have games or a strong enough online service but then again its only 250, the 360 has a strong online community and a good library of games but has the biggest flaw of all hardware unreliability
3 year wararnty is nice and all but I'd rather have a console thats built sound enough not to need a warranty that long. Free repairs still take time away from having a console.
sorry to break your bubble, but PS 3 is selling almost about the same as Xbox 360 during its first 6 months of launch. and i'm not pulling this out of my a$$ :wink:

I'm sure thats false... I have never seen the 360 sell less than 150k for 3 months straight in the US. (Don't bring Japan into this, mainly because Nintendo is destroying both consoles there)
I will bring japan into this because its relevant you can't not count a large region because the 360 is doing horrible there
Ok you brought it upon yourself ;) Japan Total Console Sales(current year) Wii- 2,030,031 PS3- 505,622 Xbox360 - 120,953 http://www.the-magicbox.com/topten.htm told'ja wii was destroying both of them... Sony had an established empire in Japan and to see it crumble only 400k above what Microsoft has to offer is horrible. Microsoft never had an established empire in Japan so it's not as bad.
saying MS doing bad in Japan is ok because its always done bad is not a good excuse and considering the 360 was out a full year before the PS3 was released having 5 times the sells in the region in about 8 months is impressive.
and I've gone on record saying the wii will destroy both the 360 and PS3 in sells, but the PS3 will definetly outsell the 360
I said the current years sales... so its only 120k this year, if you want total for the 360... your looking at about 450k consoles sold. So the 5x argument is kinda off. It is a good excuse because Sony was market leader in Japan in both era's of the Playstation (1&2) And for them to go to second place to Nintendo by such a huge margin, it IS a big upset (if you look at it that way)
lets not spin it, if sony is going to lose japan is irrelevant to how bad the xbox did or how bad the 360 is doing
