i heard it was because of Sony not having their Blu-Rays finalized and because their games weren't completed.

Its probably both

500w!?!?!?!?!?! OMYGOSH! The Xbox 360's is 203w! AND THE XBOX 360's POWER CONVERTER IS HUGE! WOW!

Your forgetting what system DOMINATED the markets, not xbox 1 not xbox 360 oh... the ps2, theres no way the PS3 is gunna suck, also the fact is fully backwards compatiable with ps1 and ps2. personally i think they delayed it for Blu-ray because the players arnt even out yet in north america.

and where do you get these statistics?

The only reason why Sony had the market for a while was because the only competition was the N64 with the PS1 and the PS2 came out earlier. For the last couple of years, the Xbox has been rising and rising in the market. And now that the 360 is out, the PS2 is looking more and more like crap everyday.

And the PS3 was delayed because the dev kits for it makes it too hard to make games and all the games for it take alot longer to make and not as many software companies have bothered to put time into the PS3.

Since its launch in Japan on March 4th, 2000, sales of PlayStation 2 has grown steadily, securing its place as the most favorite computer entertainment platform in homes around the world. Particularly, the new slim line PlayStation 2 (SCPH-70000 series), which went on sale in November 2004 starting from Japan, has gained strong support around the world and demand for the platform continues to grow steadily, with shipment reaching 16.17 million units in the last fiscal year (ending March 2005) alone. Shipment of 90 million units within 5 years and 3 months since launch is more than 2 years and 3 months faster in penetration speed, compared to the original PlayStation, which has sold more than 100 million units in total. [emphasis: PS3Focus.com]


That article is from June 3, 2005.  So, PS2 is VERY close to 100 million, if not having surpassed it.

Xbox is somewhere around 25 million.. I can't find a source, but it is.


Please, there is no need to be childish in our arguments, guys.

sony counts all units, that includes the tens of Millions that were brought back by customers and resold. MS and Nintendo do Not practice this. At the Halo 2 launch, I was one of the first people in line at Eb and the manager and I had a good talk. Hes not anti Sony so dont even go there...

In November of '04 when the game launched, there were something like 85 million ps2s in circulation. The real # was around 70 million, the other 15 million or so were ps2s that broke and resold. Ask any reputable EB/Gamestop manager(assuming they arent semi retarded like their employees), and they will tell you its true, if they arent scared of backlash anyways.

And yes, Xbox is around 25/26 million sold. Not bad considering it doesnt sell anything in japan.

I guess to be fair, even if MS and Nintendo did do that, their #'s wouldnt be higher seeing as the failure rate of their systems is nowhere near as high as the ps2  laugh.gif maybe they figure "why bother, faking the #'s wont help us"

What's the point of having other console forms for a website made for one specific console?  blink.gif
