i think PS3 is having a slow start party because the PS2 is still going strong. there are lots of PS2 owners how haven't upgraded to the current gen. yet. the PS3 isn't that expensive $399.99 360 is $299.99. after 2 years effectively there equal because of the $50 a year for live on 360 which only offers a little more the the free PSN. for me PS3 and 360 are very close with PS3 just a little ahead. Wii comes across as being only for weekend gamers.

also the Wii like control sony is working on isn't replacing the current control. it will only be used by select titles. kind of like the PSeye.
