Lately it looks like everything is going wrong for Sony. The battery recall did a lot of damage to their reputation and their bank account. Now it looks like they are going to take another hit with the ps3.
This round of the console wars is going to be especially competitive with xbox 360 getting an early lead and Wii coming out with some very unique features. Compared to the competition the ps3 looks weak in just about every aspect. Sonys main problem is the price. They are copying Microsofts approach and releasing two versions of the ps3. The 20gb hard drive version will cost $499 and the 60gb will cost $599. I think its pretty obvious that most people wont be able to afford a $600 console around Christmas. Even if they decide to max out their credit cards they could get a Wii AND an xbox 360 for the price of a ps3.
Sonys next problem is the weak list of games available at release. Most gamers agree that the Wii launch lineup is much stronger and the Xbox 360 has an impressive lead. The Wiis virtual console service gives it an extra edge over the competition. It will allow gamers to purchase many classic games and possibly original content.
Even if you decide to get a ps3 its going to be nearly impossible to find one before Christmas. According to most online sources only 400000 consoles will be available in the USA and 100000 in Japan. That basically means youre not getting one unless you pay double on ebay.
Judging by all the information available right now it looks like the main battle in this round of the console war will be between the Wii and the xbox 360. Hopefully, Sony will find some way to turn this around.
