Playstation Back on Top?

Acording to Sony Computer Entertainment President Kaz Hirai, the PS3 will be back on top very soon.

PlayStation 3 will help Sony reclaim its position as the leading games console maker, the head of the firm’s console division has said.

Speaking to BBC News, Kaz Hirai said the machine would overhaul rivals Nintendo and Microsoft within its 10-year lifecycle. PlayStation 3 sales have outstripped those of Microsoft Xbox 360 in Europe but it lags behind in North America. Nintendo’s Wii console is the number one next-generation machine globally. Mr Hirai said Sony was engaged in a “marathon” race with Nintendo and Microsoft.

I believe the PS3 has much potential after visiting the PS3 Open day at the O2 Arena, London two days ago. The Playstation has supreme graphics as well as great games such as GTA IV however, the problem I believe seems to lie between the superiority of each console over the net. With Microsofts xbox 360 dominating, I still think people will opt to buy the 360 rather than the PS3.

Below is a video of the PS3 online gameplay.

…I still prefer the 360, what do you think?
