    "In its May 2008 Dossier, DFC Intelligence forecasts that the PS3 will overtake the Xbox 360 in 2009 and finish in a strong second place behind the Wii. Software sales for Sony's console should surpass Wii software sales in 2012 according to their estimates.
    "The Xbox 360 was unable to take advantage of Sony's struggles to build the type of large lead needed to maintain a long-term advantage," DFC said in its report.
    DFC Intelligence assumes that new systems will launch in the 201-2013 time frame, based upon prior history, but it notes that this is all very hypothetical. With the success of the Wii, Nintendo may not be in any hurry to launch a new system. Given its losses, Microsoft may not decide to stay in games business. And if Sony is serious about a projected 10 year life cycle for PS3, it may not want to launch a successor any time soon."

    IMO i think i wasted my money on the ps3. it hardly has any exclusives except for a few like killzone and that little planet game(forgot actual name). seriously i hardly use it any more. although the free online and internet capability is nice, i find using my computer and xbox live way faster and easier. as for the report, i think that if it is even slightly to come true then i doubt that sony and nintendo wouldn't be releasing new consoles and also microsoft wouldn't be in gaming anymore. thats my opinion and others may differ
