2 Million PS3's? Not!

**xiaNaix** · 10-25-2006,09:26 AM

To catch up on some news missed over the last week, Jack Tretton, co-chairman of Sony Computer Entertainment America confirmed that the company will likely fall short of plans to ship 2 million PS3's by the end of the year.

"The honest answer is it's more of a target. Clearly we've had production issues."

The company also warned that the cost of introducing PlayStation 3 this year will flatten profits for the company to their lowest level in five years. Analysts say Sony is a long way away from completing the turnaround instigated by boss Howard Stringer.

Not sure why you just now posted this. The middle part is the only part I didn't hear of last week.

Maybe because its good to post all relevant info even if its a little bit late? Not everyone has seen this just because you have. Don't forget there are a hell of a lot more people in the world that may not have read this.

Maybe two years from now but not this year or next.

It may pwn in brute strength, but not in execution or cost.
