ummmm no not really close either.I don't think so, Sony said about half of the PS4 install base didn't have a PS3, they're also getting customers who didn't even own a last gen console.
The current PS4 hype is that of Wii/iPhone proportions, people just want something that is popular, the PS4 announcement trailer had 30 million views, more than any super bowl ad during that month.
Hopefully the momentum can maintain until we finally start getting some steadier new releases. It'd be a shame for Sony if this all turned sour before the holidays (I doubt it, but still).
Powerful machine at a reasonable price with a decent library of games after a seven year hiatus? Let's not mention how clumsy the competition has been. The stars pretty much aligned for the PS4, it's a system that has almost everything going for it.
A bit of a "playing dumb" comment
Lots of people thought the dedicated game hardware might not be needed going forward
Neither am I. I'm not even sure why I bought one to be honest.
But the 3:1 includes digital games. The poster you replied to said 3-4 retail games worth buying.
Is Shu on truth serum in this interview?
The honesty almost seems farther than PR would generally allow. It's nice to see I suppose but kind of hilarious
Didn't they have the best selling hardware?

Love that episodeLike that spongebob episode with colored krabby patties.

I'm curious.
Did Nintendo why the Wii was selling so well back in the day?
They dont' know why is selling?
What the fuck is going on at Sony?
Not that hard to understand.
Great hardware at a great price from a brand that already has great brand recognition. It's a no brainer for a consumer. Throw in the other things like Micorosoft goofing and you're set.
In the end, Sony needs to not try to figure out why it happened but focus on sustaining it by backing up people's purchase.
Crazy how just 2 minutes of words led to all this...
ummmm no not really close either.
I don't think this is accurate.
they sure do!
And their competition fumbled badly enough that people were willing to choose a side more quickly.Seven years without a new console + one of the cheaper launch prices ever for really good hardware had something to do with it.
