The PS3 will be a success. Period. I would certainly hope XBOX360 has a lead over the PS3, since it came out a year PRIOR. Once SONY gets its act together on production, expect that lead to drop significantly. Ill be suprised if MS can maintain that unit-share throughout the year. I doubt it. PS3 - for all the woes and troubles, and internet hand-wringing - is still going to dominate in all three major markets. MS has pretty much resigned itself to working in only two markets (US and UK).
Thats why the PS3 will continue to be a success, because it will have the built in unit-base that will attract small time publishers. You wonder why you can predict which games will be released for XBOX360 - its because publishers (and were talking JAPANESE publishers) arent going to release on a system with no installed user-base. Thats why youre getting the standard FPS, Action and Sports franchises, and hoping for some bit of innovation from US/UK developers. SONY has the good fortune of having the eccentric machine, the PS3 that will have all developers flocking to it to develop titles.
As for technical woes, for the great MAJORITY of players - this wont be a problem, is there are problems. Its a piece of tech - expecting ALL UNITS to come out of the manufacturing plant w/o operating defects is a joke.
In any case, 500K users are going to be updating the world on whether or not the PS3 was worth it - and with some pretty good games dropping within the first couple of months, I cant see them not having anything to crow about.

Its a fucking CONTROLLER. Not a load of bricks. Unless you play the "STAND STILL GAMEā¢" - how the fuck is this going to be a problem. And if it is, heres a novel idea that I just invented:

Amazing. Welcome to the future!
