Looks like sony had good news for the year end, but the figures still don't show the ps3 in a good light.
When you think of the region saturation of both the psp and ps2 (eight years?), and they still beat the ps3 into third place, it doesn't look so good.

The Ps3 sales are doing ok tbh, considering it's still early days for the console, 100,000 more ps2 sales than ps3 isnt too bad.
Thats still over 1 million ps3 consoles sold in just North America.
And with 3.9 million sales overall, sony have had a good xmas.
Re: US PS3 Christmas sales figures hit 1.2 million, PS2 sells more
I wasn't meaning that sony/ps3 had a bad year end, just pointing out that the figures show that the ps3 was being solidly beaten into 3rd place by consoles that have been around alot longer than the ps3, and so, would have had greater market saturation, which should have equalled less appeal, not more.
Edit;
I've just re-read both my posts, they sound as if I'm anti-sony and that isn't the case, when they do something right I applaud them (may even buy the product).
