Lo que os avecina...
Jack Tretton, Presidente de Sony Computer Entertainment of America, ha confirmado que su compañía tiene planes muy a largo plazo respecto a PlayStation 3, sin importar que las ventas iniciales no hayan sido las previstas, ya que no se están centrando en los seis primeros meses de vida, sino en los próximos diez años en adelante. "Un millón de unidades más o menos es algo que no nos preocupa ahora", aseguró. Como muchos analistas vaticinan, PS3 tendrá un calado conforme pase el tiempo según Tretton, quien considera que Xbox 360 y Wii tienen un éxito más inmediato y que para ello fueron diseñadas. "PS3 será la líder indiscutible en 2008" concluyó.
