To be honest, the only reason this is the "most successful" re-launch is because the first launch was shitty as hell. Now they can say sales are up 76,000% or whatever, but it's relative.

Oh well, good for them thought. I've yet to buy a PS3, and this was exactly what I was waiting for.

This is bullshit I paid full price for my PS3, everyone else should have to suffer and pay huge amounts like I did.

most successful console relaunch in history my arse

same shit they did with the ps2, hardly a genius business move, is it? they produced an overpriced hunk of shit that 80% of the console consumer market didnt want, so they eventually reluctantly downscale it and downprice it... and fanboys herald it as the most successful relaunch ever? it's hardly a victory, sony had to do this shit just to survive against the competition. most successful relaunch ever my arse.
You do know the ps2 is the highest selling console in history? It sold more than the xbox n gamecube put together. I wouldnt say that the majority of the console market didnt want it...

Most successful relaunch is nothing to do with fanboys, its to do with the statistics. If it sells the most and quickly from a relaunch, its succesful

you do know i was talking about the ps3? wtf ps2? this is a ps3 relaunch thread. my only point was that they re-released the ps2 as well and enjoyed good sales- i was commenting on the supposed 'brilliance' of this strategy. it's an old routine.

thanks for the economic expert #101 explanation on the definition of 'successful'. if it sells most and does it fast, it's successful. right. k. noted.

so the wii is a toy for when you have friends, but what is the PS3?

A hunk of shit that can't play games and certainly can't entertain guests.

PS3 is for music and movies, not games.
