ps3 fan ultamite wrote: the bigest sales are in japan. and ms have done so crap in japan that they were trying to make a re launch(com on guys thats jst really desparete)
only 20% of the consoles shiped to japan have been sold! they havnt even sent many there!
its even worse in the UK!
18% of those sent to the UK were sold!

ps3 is expected to do so well that they are trying to stop shops from letting people pre order it until october!

o and if we dont have any more console wars it will turn out like my internet provider.(costs 60 bucks per month for 250 kb speed and i can download 10 gigs)
as soon as i get the ps3 im gona check out wat its like having a res from 320x160 upgraded to 1080 p for my ps1 games and play all of my games in 60 fps o yeah baby!

then im gona hook it up to the net and start playing online instantly! go Jak X, ratchet 3-deadlocked, gran turismo 4!
sony has never had a chalenge with the console wars except this time its scepticle that they wont win by miles this time. thats only cus of the way peter moore has been saying how ps3 is a complete rip off and all that. even tho u get over 2000 bucks of stuff worth in a styly sleek black wing only slightly taller than the 360!

the people at E3 said they enjoyed gears of war and halo 3 at ms expo but at sonys they got so adicted to motor storm and warhawk cus of its amazing visuals and gameplay and decided to ring up sony themselves and pay 1000 bucks for the ps3! then they said that they cant then he said he would pay 2000! but of course they cant so he got really anoyed and has ps3 on his wishlist.

Microsoft has invested billions of dollars into the Xbox internal documents and received back billions of dollars in sales. Overall though Xbox division has lost $4 billion from 2001 to 2005. In particular, the Xbox hardware itself is a loss leader, since the console was sold at a loss even at its debut price. The losses deepened when sales of the Xbox increased and when the price was reduced successive times to compete with PlayStation 2. Microsoft predicted that it would not make a profit on the Xbox for at least three years. This prediction turned out to be correct; Microsoft Game Studios, Microsoft’s game division in charge of Xbox development, had its first profitable quarter reported in January 2005, thanks largely to the success of Halo 2. Investor relations documents says that in the end of 2005 Microsoft lost more than 1 billion dollars. The Xbox project never gave an annual profit to Microsoft according to these documents. In return for the money loss though the Xbox gained name recognition and a dedicated fan base.
