The game console's failure to hit even internal sales targets raises doubts about the electronics giant's 2009 turnaround forecast
by Kenji Hall

If only Sony (SNE) could fast-forward to March, 2009. That's when the Japanese technology company expects its video game business to finally make money after two years of hefty operating losses. But the prospect of Sony's PlayStation 3 gaming console dragging down earnings for another two years shouldn't have fazed anyone who attended the company's fiscal-year earnings announcement on May 16. Financial analysts have been offering a similarly gloomy forecast for months now.

However, investors were in for a nasty surprise on May 16: Sony failed to hit its own PS3 sales targets, Chief Financial Officer Nobuyuki Oneda said. Although the company had forecast global shipments of 6 million machines by the Mar. 31 end of its fiscal year, its factories made and sent off just 5.5 million. Worse, the actual number of PS3s in stores was closer to 3.6 million. The remaining 1.9 million were either sitting in warehouses or en route to stores, leaving as much as $1.1 billion in inventory. Perhaps that's why the company chose to stick to a more conservative sales forecast of 11 million units this year

When psn gets its central friendlist and chat/invite acces from ingame it will be on par with live, only free thus better.

Wow, it's games like this, Undertow, Street Fighter, MK, etc that make me wonder when is the PSN going to step up and start getting games like this. LittleBigPlanet is a step in the right direction I suppose. :(
