Sony clearly had no idea that getting GTA all to itself for a year or so was a major part of their dominance at the end of the last generation. And also, I'll say it again: it's the price. If the consoles were comparably priced, it would be a slugfest. But the PS3, from what I've seen, just hasn't done anything to justify its higher price point. Even MS have admitted now that the "sweet spot" in the market is a $200 console. On almost the same day, Sony said they were thinking about "adjusting" the price of the PS3.Basically, both console makers are now trying to figure out how much MORE money they can afford to lose on their consoles to try and compete with the Wii. I think the two dominant consoles of this generation will be the Wii and PS2 (assuming Sony doesn't start refusing to license games for the console in an attempt to force an upgrade).We're already seeing this trend, with game publishers making Wii games and then porting them to the PS2. The consoles seem graphically similar and things I've read from publishers make it clear that the port isnt that difficult.  Though it isnt coming out, this is where the PS2 Manhunt 2 game came from. Rockstar had made it for the Wii and the PSP, and from there it wasn't hard to port it to the PS2, which is still attractive because everyone has one (with more slimlines sold everyday).</blockquote>
