It may be the price or the games PS3 has. Xbox360 has a wide variety of games while PS3 has good graphics and blue ray disc.

I heard that Blu Ray is total failure that may be main reason why PS3 failed to meet its expectation and also was behind Wii and X Box 360 for most selling games.

though sony is good at making systems, they can only use the superior graphics on Ps3-only titles, and face it, sony isn't to good at making games...

The Playstation 3 is great, but the thing is there aren't that much games yet, so that's why the ps3 hasn't been sold that good yet.

the reason that it is not being sold would be either the price or the fact that there are only a few games for the system (about 25 i think).i have a PS3 but only have 1 game because the games are about £40 and i am saving up fo them.AsrarQ

Because KH 3 isn't on it yet.((Face it. That's the reason. too many KH fans...))However, I myself think that the PS3 beats the living crap out of both of the other systems.

Well, here in brazil it's WAY expensive! That's why it's not selling too much. Only rich people or high medium class are able to buy it and keep buying the expensive games aswell. It costs more than 1500 reais, which would be 790 dollars. I wish it were like the super nes time, and a game used to cost 6 bucks only, and we'd buy a bunch of 'em ! :rolleyes:

Price and the games that are released for it. There just isn't enough good games so to speak on the market. If the price dropped and exclusive games for the ps3 are released, it will probably be doing a lot better than it currently is.

I'll buy a PS3 when it costs $400 or less.Yes, I know I'll be waiting a very long time, but like hell am I spending 599 US Dollars on a video game console. Plus, I'm more than happy with my 360.

Its price is the obvious cause of the lack of purchase. But Sony can't go any lower on the pricing cuz I believe they're selling at a loss.

There are 3 reasons why the PS3 isn't making as much sales as the rest of the consoles1. Way overpriced2. Lack of games3. Sony productI said the last one because Sony products in my experience tend to run into a lot of problems (errors, glitches, etc.)

It's probably because the PS3 is exactly like PS2, except just on a different level. It can play more games. That's about it.With the Wii, you actually get to move the characters with the WiiMote. It's a good workout. :x

the most obvous is the price on the ps3. also sice the system is more towards peopl who care of graphics, they are loosing people to 360 cuz of their great shooters and to Wii, which aims towards all ages and the games are very fun.
