I really shouldn't care about numbers especially numbers that aren't 100% accurate and even more so cause we are at the end of a generation but the ps3 is still chugging over a 1 million units in 2 months.

Sony/PS3 is selling pretty strong, at the end of its cycle. They have just caught up to XBOX and maybe taken them over .. at the end of their cycles. So well done.

Let the battle begin between the new consoles already!!

Omni-Tool4068d ago

PS3 still has another 3 or so years under its belt and will still have games developed for it as well as the PS4 for a little longer. Microsoft will most likely kick 360 to the curb when the 720 is released.

charted4068d ago

@Omni-Tool

When the next gen begins are we still gonna talk about PS3 vs XBOX360?

I haven't heard a comparison between PS2 vs XBOX after 3 and 360 was released.

PS2 was supported yes, but we as gamers didnt give a toss about them.

It'll happen this new gen too.

Evil-snuggles4068d ago

Actually ps3 has sold 1,000,000 and a half more consoles than 360 xbox worldwide and that is not counting all the red ring xboxs 360 im on my third xbox 360 my first 1 xbox 360 red ringed me my 2 the disk drive broke i barely played it xbox 360 quality is a nightmare im still on my first ps3

HammadTheBeast4068d ago

@Charted

There was no comparison between PS2/Xbox, PS2 completely dominated and crushed the Xbox.

@Dylila

This is what fanboy is. See like/dislike ratio. Majority of this site are sony fanboys. That's a fact.

Karpetburnz4068d ago

Dont you think theres a reason why so many people love PS3? Its because its so damn good.

cant wait for the PS4

JackBNimble4068d ago (Edited 4068d ago )

When I first join n4g if you were a ps3 fan you were distroyed. N4G was all about the 360 and how shitty the ps3 was... that was in 2007. Times have changed , the shoe is on the other foot ... sorry about your luck nintendoland.

SilentNegotiator4068d ago

You're not exactly in a position to talk. I don't care what the ratios are, that doesn't excuse being a fanboy, even a minority one.

Nothing to see here: Nintendo and Sony selling all the hardware as usual. :)

HammadTheBeast4068d ago

Nice to see Vita sales picking up a bit.

NastyLeftHook04068d ago

PS3 - 1,163,048
3: X360 - 767,581

wow

darthv724068d ago (Edited 4068d ago )

not so much wow as if you look at the years they have been roughly 400k between each other. 2010 was closer to 500k between them but the other years was roughly 400k or less.

with the ps4 announcement comes the risk that sales will decline in preparation of those who will hold off and wait.

Or it could be that sony will cut the price to spur sales in light of the recent announcement. In either case we can see that there are 'possibly' more people letting go of the one console stigma and buying the other to have in addition to their initial system.

It can go with 360 only fans are starting to buy PS3 and PS3 only fans are starting to buy 360. Both have their pro and con but both are worth having.

CBaoth4068d ago

Coincide with the Last of Us dropping the following Tuesday. Makes sense. With GOW, TLOU, Beyond and perhaps GT6 still set to release on PS3 (as well as Destiny and Diablo 3), it's clear to me Sony intends an dual platform approach.

Twinzclipz4068d ago

i dont care about 360 because i Dont like Halo/Gears/FMS/AW or FABLE

nypifisel4067d ago

People who initially will buy a PS4 have had a PS3 for several years, it wont affect the sales of PS3 that much to be honest!

Samus HD4068d ago

Not that "wow"
But sony is doing very Well, huh.. I think it´s going to outsell even PS4 when it will be released

Prodigy-X4068d ago

You won't be saying that after E3.

Roper3164068d ago

that is ever gamers favorite line I think, but very rarely is anything different after E3 imho. I think Vita will take off once the PS4 lands but that is just me & a thought which in the real world means nothing.

TongkatAli4068d ago

I agree with him and I'm a Vita fanboy. It should be number 1. Look how the Gameboy started it all and then look at the Vita. It's a fing epic godsend of a portable system, but most gamers are too cheap to own it.

3DS ain't got nothing but sales on it. If Nintendo made the Vita I would be up their ass too.

AdvanceWarsSgt4068d ago

So the 3DS doesn't have good games?

At least you admit to being a Vita/Sony fanboy. Doesn't make the implication any less stupid though.

squarecircle4068d ago

It's not about being cheap, have you forgotten we are in a serious recession?
Also I think peoples interests are on the next gen consoles, I know I would rather save up for a PS4 than a Vita at this point in time.

Bumpmapping4068d ago (Edited 4068d ago )

Good numbers for 3DS/PS3.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC5h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer6h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey6025h ago(Edited 5h ago)

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya4h ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde4h ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

RavenWolfx3h ago

Yeah, I loved the Legends games so much.

ZeekQuattro11h ago

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Knightofelemia9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B9h ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff21839h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh8h ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia8h ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins9h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal8h ago

The first game was the best imo.

overkill.wtf
jznrpg1d 5h ago

How long until they get sued and it gets taken down? I say a month or 2

PRIMORDUS1d 4h ago

Sued for what? It's just an emulator no ROMs are with it. ROMs are easy to get anyway, but with iPhone you can't just copy and paste like Android unless it's jail broken I think. Anyway Nintendo should be more concerned with their ROMs up to torrent for years for all of their concoles, but then again they can't do nothing about it, they never will and I love it. 🤣

NotoriousWhiz1d 2h ago

As long as it isn't emulating the Switch, it'll be fine.

RonnySins1d 2h ago

Naaah! Don't want to waste time emulating on iPhone.

Knightofelemia1d 1h ago

Won't belong before Nintendo bangs on Apple's door to have the emu removed. Like I say you take down one six more take it's place. Problem is people are putting emu's on such stupid platforms. The good emus are the ones not on stupid platforms like a red target. The good emu's are word of mouth and keep a low profile.
