The Playstation Loses.. To the Playstation

Am I the only one finding it kind of interesting that it's the guys who don't play PC games pointing out that a lot of the games on the 360 are also on the PC? Then in a different thread it's the same guys complaining how expensive gaming PCs are (while not even wanting to find out what the reality is, oftentimes).
I think the ironic thing is, if the console DOES fail, it will go down in history as artistic and "before its time" where as if it doesn't fail it'll just slide into mediocrity. What I don't understand is the rabid fervor that this thread is soliciting. I mean, there has to be more to it then just "I have this console, so it must be better."
So, instead of flaming each other, lets make actual discussion on the original topic. Why is the prices slumping? I mean the games industry has proven to be recession proof so I doubt that the recession, while a big part, is the only player in Sony's lagging behind the pack. What would you think they'd have to do to catch back up in sales? Is it possible for them to catch up this late in the game? What games do they have to release to strengthen sales?

Oh well that is just hilarious.
No sarcasm there, people. Sony wasted a lot of money on that new-fangled and apparently unnecessary PS3. Shoulda made a PS2.5.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! This is the funniest effing news I've heard all week! I actually feel sorry for Sony...
Please not due to the high amount of 360 smacktardery in this topic this response will be heavily aimed at the 360 morons, but don;t worry the PS3 muppets will get some bile aimed at them as well.
Some info for the 360 fanboys lording it up over the fact that the PS2 outsold the PS3.
1). Let's not forget that the last XBox was so shite that MS withdrew it from sale ahead of schedule so that they could replace it with a poorly designed and, by any other criteria, heavily flawed console.
2). The PS3 isn't even half way through it's life cycle the 360 is closer to it's death than it is to it's birth now.
3). You're acting superior whilst your own console only managed to finish fourth in the same ranking. Well done your console is only a bit better than the PS3 but not quite as good as the three that finished in front of it.
A side note I own a PS3 that has BC. Wanna know how many times I've used it. NEVER. I have 30 Ps2 games and I have NEVER used my PS3s BC. Get over it the new ones don't have it because no one apart from the elite retards actually think they need it. Besides you can download a PS2 emulator and run it on a piss pot Pentium 3 and use that to run your old PS2 games... if you're that god damn desperate to play them.
This is total arse. 360 owners talking shit about why their system is the best. Using the same old bullshit arguments to justify the fact that they bought what amounts to a great big pile of fail. MS sitting by rubbing it's hands while the morons continue to buy a console THAT WILL FAIL on them. Live, cost, exclusives, graphics, DLC all the usual shite that gets brought out to justify why you bought your console and worse still to reassure your own self that you purchased a console that couldn't beat a GOD DAMN WII in sales.
As for the PS3 owners who cares. Yes the PS3 may be able to produce better graphics but so bloody what? Whilst developers are getting pockets full of cash from the overlord Microsoft all the PS3 will get is shitty half arsed conversions of 360 games while the 360 fanboys bang on about how great their console is because they get the opportunity to have their wallets double fleeced by shitty exclusive DLC for said games and the oh so wonderful Live service. The only games that show the PS3's power are exclusives and to use those as an argument to prove the consoles graphics power is like comparing the 0 - 60 times of a Ferrari to thin air.
Sony made an arse of it, face it and deal with it. You can at least feel safe in the knowledge that unlike MS, where 'originality' is a sweary word and will result in you actually being physically escorted out to the back of their buildings before being shot by security, at least they tried to incorporate some new tech in to their console. It failed in the short term and in ten years time we will know if it failed in the long term but by then the 360 fanboys will have the XBox 'look at how big my cock is' and they'll be banging on about how their £70 quid a day Live fee and the fact they can play their console for almost three whole hours before they have to phone MS's wonder customer service line to get it repaired.
To sum up PS2 outsells PS3; big fucking deal.

Oh my God, are you seriously suggesting that anything about PS3 is original? It has a bluray player. That's it. There is not a single shred of originality anywhere else in the whole system. MS are just as bad. Both they and Sony have been ripping off original ideas from Nintendo and Sega for years. You know N64 does rumble and analogue - Sony does dual shock; Nintendo do wii, Sony does 6 axis; sega does analogue triggers, MS does too. Then Sony does as well. Just about the only original thing MS did was xbox live. Sony copied that too.
So Sony has a bluray player in it's game console; big fucking deal.
One thing that I think is worth mentioning is about the Final Fantasy titles.
The 360 will be getting ONE of the two that are coming out. This is a pure marketing purpose and they did this because they had loads of fans on the 360. They will still only let one of the two onto the 360.
Also both games deals with the same world what I know.
As for PS3 selling, well maybe it sells bad because it actually have a good chance of living for quite some time. Unlike the 360 which and you know I'm not lieing about, brakes down a lot more than it should.

if the ps3 fails then we are all screwed. ms would most like likely dominate game sales. they could charge 700 bucks and 100 bucks a game if they wanted to. i am not knocking the wii in all this. i don't see the as a primary gaming system.it is a fun system tho.it has good games but most wii games are garbage or average at best. i do believe as of right now the 360 has the best game library. back to my point. the ps3 is a good system. has it lived up to the hype game wise ? no ,but but its getting better. the ps3 has a lot of exclusives this year. the ps2 is a hard act to follow for any game company . i doubt any game company will beat the ps2 sales wise or the quality game library for years to come. by the way i am no means a ps3 fanboy. if you wanna call me a fanboy then call me a good game fanboy.
