OMG... No sh*t? The Ps3 outsold the 360... who would have thought!
You're pitiful man! We all know the 360 doesn't do well in japan, so is that really necessary?
What you should point out is that the Ps3 outsold the Wii! I didn't think the Wii would get beat in japan for a while, but the Ps3 is starting to extend it's user base even further.
@ 299.99 Ps3 outsold 360 by a 13:1 ratio. This is what I'm talking about. Ps3 isn't doing nearly half as bad as in America as 360 is bombing in Japan. While this is all good, let not count out the American market. They proved in the last quarter how much they can root for the home team. We already know that this is pretty much identical to what's going on in EU.
But I would say by the end of this year would be likely. I`d have a much better idea at the next quarterly reports because no one really knows how the consoles have been selling worldwide this year. It depends on how long the Kinect boost lasts. Because lets be realistic, Kinect saved the PS3 from closing the gap even more last quarter, so if that boost lasts, it may take longer than expected.
Nobody gets anything. It just shows fanboys need to accept the inevitable. Sony didn't outperform their previous competition by fluking it two consecutive times. The Sony brand is still the most preferred brand to consumers.
LOl PS3 has like 40 million to go before it takes the WW lead.
@Dirty Beaver. LOL sure kid. That's why Nintendo beats them in console sales and portable console sales right cause PS3 is the preferred brand in last place.
It must suck to have to ignore reality in order to say something good about your company
Guess what? It will not shatter my world if the Ps3 pulls ahead, im being totally honest here. I own both, but the 360 overall gets more playtime. Just my preference, nothing less, nothing more.
This isn't about anyone's.... world being shattered. It's ultimately about having all those people who talk so much crap about ps3, finally eat crow. First it was the whole "why a blu-ray drive" argument. Sony quieted all critics when they won the format war. Then the "no games" argument came in, until Metal Gear Solid 4. Then the whole " 360 is more powerful" argument, until Killzone2 debuted. Now it's down to the LTD sales which is where their making their last stand. Sony will breach those fanboy walls and dethrone those who sit high on their 360 pedestal. I won't disagree with you because what you say I very true. Just offering some insight on why there is a debate on sales.
Preaching to the Choir I've been saying this for years. If things continue as they are now, Sony won't feel the need to drop the price until E3. People thing Microsoft outsold Sony last holiday season. America had alot to do with that and even then they only broke even with Sony. Q1 2010 700k Q2 2010 900k Q3 2010 700k Q4 2010 both sold 6.3 million WW Now let's say this trend continues with the minimum being 700k Q1-Q4 2011 700k = 2.8 million
Vgchartz numbers PSP 28,207 DS 25,485 PS3 22,748 Wii 16,034 X360 2,314 PS2 1,579 They do this every week. They got caught doing the same thing with Europen numbers.
Oh no their 360 estimate was off by 32 consoles.. damn those fanboys and their inflated numbers.... what an idiot. Estimate kid. Look that word up in a dictionary please. Or have a parent read it for you and explain what it means.
@seferoth78 Yeah thats crazy. Imagine them doing that every week, every month, every year. They use to do it for Europe numbers but got caught. Then they had to adjust those numbers because of it. Which is why so many people thought the 360 was further ahead than it really was. Yeah not a big deal though.
I cant believe these numbers anymore.
One minute the xbox is out selling the ps3 and now the ps3 is out selling xbox.I think fanboys make up numbers and try to make them official.

will the ps3 pass the 360?
are Wii's numbers going to drop completely?
Does Ms have any trick cards up their sleeves, after an impressive holiday season?
its about to go down
"Lolz, teh 360 sold 1.15 times more than teh PS3, Lolz!"

the slight lead the 360 has in america during the month
id say 4 years since the 4th year ps3 has slowly been outselling the 360
PS3 – 218,165
Wii – 189,140
DSi LL – 132,983
DSi – 118,542
Xbox 360 – 16,054
PSP go – 14,853
DS Lite – 12,794
PS2 – 10,430
Not really suprising to sum up
- the go is a flop, but the X000 models are a huge success
- the ds is crushing everything
- ps3 is the leadest selling console
psp2000-100,000
psp3000-128,550
it's just *PSP*or:
360 core-5000
360 elite-11,054
it's just *360*
all the ds versions are just ds(s).it's not like they do anything different.should be just one number for all.
it should be:
psp
ps3
wii
ds
360
ps2
splitting it up just doesn't make sense..
