According to 'experts', the PS3 will be sold out the most but in my opinion, I think Xbox 360 will rule all them consoles...

I would say Ps3 would still be the overall winner. Establishment counts and of course the huge amount of fanboys out there tongue.gif.

but Nintendo might put up a good fight this time.

"Analysts" says that PS3 will dominate, 360 in second, and Wii last. Similar to what's happening to current gen.

If PS3 does deliver what consumers want, then they should be hitting the critical area for maximum damage.

360 is currently the only next-gen platform in the market, so they'll have to wait until fall to know the outcome of which platform gamers really want. (e.g. if Wii/PS3 sucks, getting 360)

Either Wii or PS3...i think xbox360 will only rulezz in US...but currently even PS2 sale is higher than 360 in US.. flex.gif ..based on E3 2006 i think Wii will win...cheaper and new controller.. notworthy.gif

I think the launch titles will decide how succesful PS3 will be. Because of the price, people aren't going to jump straight onto the PS3. I'm sure most of the not-so-rich people will hold out on the PS3 until a good game comes along, like MGS4 and FFXIII.

If Microsoft can release Halo 3 before MGS4 or FFXIII, it'll take time for Sony to overcome Microsoft's current lead......

Yup, the PS3's launch titles look very underwhelming at the moment..... there is no 1 "must get" title so far. With the Wii releasing (supposedly) before the PS3, and WITH a Zelda game to boot, I'm sure people with financial constraints will not go for the PS3 straight away.

IMO Sony needs a series like Tekken or DMC AT LEAST to kick off the PS3 proper. If they don't have any A-grade titles at launch, most people will find it hard to plonk US$600 for a console with so few games that's worthy of being played.

Well,Wii might win but like i said in the PS3 thread,there are 106 million PS2s sold as of november 2005,god knows how many more they already sold this year.Lets say each person bought 1 PS2.Then if 5% of those people bought a PS3,Sony has already sold 5,300,000 PS3s then sweat.gif

Anyhoo,F.E.A.R is confirmed for PS3 launch laugh.gif thumbup.gif

death bringer is probably right, you know...at least over here....Most people, IMO, don't care who's gonna win or dominate...to them its just games and the need to get em as affordable as possible...

Kaz Hirai makes a startling admission: the PS3 hasn't even started being manufactured!!

QUOTE
GS: So is the PS3 already being manufactured?

KH: We haven't started manufacturing yet. Some of our ops guys were actually just in China, and also in Japan just reviewing the [production] lines and everything else. But they are, again, preparing as we speak to get the manufacturing going. We've not announced and we haven't set really a specific date to say, "As of this day we're going to start manufacturing."

Most probably Wii 1st (if they make the launch date this year), xbox 360 2nd, PS3 third (3 (third) is in its name). They wont launch in the rest of the world by March 2007. There are 2 more months for them to announce the delay of JPN and NA launch. Will PS3's worldwide fanboy base safe PS3? Sony ditch them making second class to JPN and NA. I forsee backlash !! smile.gif

problem is 400,000 for NA and 100,000 for JPN is not even enough for their own people at launch. Best hope of people from non JPN and NA to get PS3 before March 2007 is try Ebay for $999 (shipping not included)

$999? are you kidding me?
360 on launch some units was exceeding $2k on Ebay. i'm guessing $2k is the started price for PS3 on Ebay, i'm not surprised if saw a unit sell for $4k.

EDIT: and the 60GB PS3 will be sold at open price in Japan. means that the retailer can put any price they like. 100k units and open price, doesn't need a Ph.D to know the answer.

Gran Turismo for PS3 Uses Micropayments
QUOTE
According to 1Up, Sony plans on shipping a version of Gran Turismo HD with no cars. That's right, no cars.
QUOTE(1up)
A complete copy of the game will cost gamers somewhere between $426.50 and $975, and that's without factoring in whatever Sony decides to charge for the menus (since that's all you'll get with GT HD: Classic).

Well, I doubt it - but it's not impossible for Sony. I mean, they've been dealing out bad news all the while and all of a sudden today we hear that even the lowend PS3 will have HDMI?

Whoa! And a price drop to boot!
