PS3 struggling so much? How so? It trails the 360 by less than 8 million sold worldwide thus far, and that gap is rapidly coming down. The 360 is only selling better in the US, the other parts of the world... it's PS3 selling better.
Yes US is the largest market, but by saying struggling so much? That's oversaying.

PS3 has more established market than Xbox, eg. PS3 has official units for Malaysia but not Xbox 360. PS3 is like a big stone waiting to be carved by developers, once people know how to carve it nicely, it will look better than Xbox 360.
there's no way for Sony to quit in the gaming console market, they will lose even more if they decided to quit, day of break even is there only if they have perseverance
seeing that Xbox 360 will have another 6 years of product life cycle, the same could happen to PS3 too, so now it is still early to judge who will be the champion.

I really hope Sony is not losing any sleep when you have billions of $$$ in loss with sales lagging behind the competitors and pressure from developers to drop price. With PSPgo retailing at USD250...when is sony ever going to learn! Yeh...sony have some really great titles ahead, but so far even the best have fail to really take off. So is the Ps3 struggling so far....its up to you to interpret.

You should just get the console which ever you think is better Ts. Why want to bother to ensure that both is better?
Imagine if there is only 1 console in the market who dominates all, will there room for improvement?
I got both and enjoy both just for the exclusive title. Developer have the right to choose which console they should work on.
It's not easy as you think to be working for a multi platform title. If the game turn out to be bad, they can't reverse time to correct their mistake. All they can do is learn from their mistake and makea better 1 in the future.

Whether PS3 struggling or not, isn't much a concern to me. The right question is how long can PS3 keep on struggling and producing new game title. If it can keep 4~5 more years from now. Is ok already.

Is ok already. well it almost 3 years already, whether Sony or third party developers support are gonna struggling or not, with tittles like Valkyria Chronicles, Uncharted 1/2, Demon Souls and many more exclusive/multi-release for old or upcoming tittles...I can see that I'm already very happy with my PS3

I think backward compatibility is not necessary anymore since there are better games in ps3 more than PS2.Plus, Dattebayo is right, we should keep moving forward,not backward.

Im going backward because theres so many good ps2 titles that i haven played,How to move forward Ps3 games are very slow in production,GT5 is taking ages to release,not many killer titles on the ps3 la for me its only MGS4 and games like Killzone2 and Unchartered does not actually make me wanna play,But cant wait for GOW 3  that game will make my ps3 alive again.

its always good to have a console that support backward compatibility where you can revisit your fav old games...like Wii (GameCube, NES/SNES via VC) & XBOX360 (XBOX)
i'm looking forward to the PS2 software emulation for PS3 (if they ever release it)
