Sony Expects to Sell 100 Million PS3s |

In the midst of a share price plunge, Sony keeps its fighting stance and remains to have a positive outlook for the PS3. The company expects to sell 100 million units of the next-gen console, despite the steep price point. Sony also predicts that heavy start-up costs related to the PS3 launch will impact operating margins by 1.2%. Both the Playstation and Playstation 2 consoles have reached the 100 million mark and it wouldn't be a surprise if the PS3 follows suit. Of course, it's no easy feat, but over time, when the price drops a little bit, then Sony can probably pull it off.

And I will buy 100 millions PS3

but honestly, I have given up on Sony products. My 1st wave PS2 broke after less than a year and I am glad I never bought a new one. I would really love to see Sony fall

No matters the price, you thinko CSFFlame.
PS2 managed over 100million with the top games are still selling $40+

i'm really disappointed with the whole sony against homebrew issue, and i'm definitely not buying any Sony ever again.
there's x360 and wii, and with the advances in tech, PCs are so powerful now, that i pass on the ps3
back on the days of the PS2, PCs were cr**p on gaming, but now the situation is different
now the only way I see buying a ps3 worth it is, if it costed 300 quid or so. paying so much for a console it's not worth it.
games are far too expensive, and if you want to watch movies or mp3, just buy a player for 30 quid, so what's the point of buying it if you already have a powerful PC at home?
of course, they say that it is more than a console...more like what? do you mean, it will be allowed to use it as a regular PC and make your own software (aka homebrew)? otherwise, I can't see how the ps3 is any different to the ps2, just more powerful
anyway, no more money for $ony

If any company can sell 100 million consoles... it's Sony.
They've done it before, and it's only expected they'll do it again.
Well i already pre-ordered 2. So now they are 99,999,998 consoles away

How Sony handle it is another matter. Im as pist off as you about the PSP homebrew scene but is PS3 homebrew going to be as big?
IF I buy a PS3 its going to be for its power. If the PS3 can do alot of features that make its price tag worthy then people will get over the shock and PS3 will sell.
But for me I have a Xbox360 and im not impressed with Sony right now so im watching the whole sketch.

oh and DOES ANYONE KNOW WERE I CAN PRE-ORDER THE PS3

Blu-ray is a great feature. Not only do we get a cheap blu-ray player since the PS3 can handle most of the functions itself, but we get everything you could possible want from the living room couch.
Both systems will have music, movies, pictures, downloadable content, streaming and games.
But the PS3 has many features the Xbox360 doesnt have:
Internet browser
Native Keyboard and Mouse support.
Playing any media from hard drive.
High Definition Blu-ray
HDMI 1.3
Bluetooth wireless
Motion Sensing controllers
Memory Card Slots on 600 model
802.11 Wireless
Standard Hard Drive
Would you rather spend 600 for a whole package at one time, or over 800 for the extras over a period of time for the Xbox360.
$300 Xbox360 Core
$100 20GB Hard Drive
$100 Wireless Adaptor
For this price you get a 500 PS3 with twice the features
$200 HD-DVD Add-on
Now the price for your system has risin above the PS3 which still has twice as many features.
You cant count games and accessories since both will cost identical. games wont rise above the normal because theres no need to. And companies like mad catz will always produce the cheapest accessories possible.
Possible for Sony to sell over 100 million PS3? Very likely since not only gamers will be interested in the system but anyone looking for a Blu-ray player will too.

Why?
Because sony is so damn stubborn.. they will have ps3
out in the market TILL it sells 100 Million just to be right
even if it took 20 years lol
Reply
I mean.. usualy its Shipped..
Well hell.. for them to actually SELL 100 Million Units
make it 30 years lol.
Im sure they will claim Shipped within 4 - 5 years
Then the new litter of fanboys will all be screaming how shipped = sold..
then everyone who actually lives on the planet earth and KNOWS what shipped means compared to sold will pwn them... ahhh the circle of life.
