If they didn't, they'd at least have cut prices to clear out inventory. So now we've got a strange situation where the PS2 is significantly cheaper than the Xbox, and where the last good PS2 games are coming out soon (or have already been released in Japan).Ready availability of the 360 (pretty nearly the case now), a $199 Wii, some availability of PS3s, and the drying up of new high-profile PS2 games after this year should cause PS2 sales to fall a lot after this year. Heck, after this year most PS2 sales will probably be replacements for people whose PS2 has broken after the warranty expired and who can't afford a PS3.</blockquote>
