Worldwide sales of the PlayStation 3 stand at approximately 4.48 million (prior to Q1 2007 Sony only quoted units shipped not sold). 3.57 million came in the final half of the previous year.
If Sony can meet its forecast then as of March 31, 2008, worldwide PlayStation 3 sales will have reached approximately 14.5 million units.
The xbox 360 didnt even reach that amount in the same time period. They havent even sold 12 million and they were at ten after a years lead. Hey but if that rumor or the new ps3 wiht the 40gb is tru then it will happen
I was saying that the xbox 360 has not sold 14 million in 15 months ..so i dont think it is posssiible for the ps3 to od the same ...Regardless I got mine
Not bad at all.
4.48 million in less than a year ? thats not bad at all. just a little short of the 5 million mark.
EDIT: Someone disagrees with me ? for what ?
those predictions are a bit arrogant. I say that 10 million is a bit more doable.
considering the BIG PS3 exclusives (aka killzone2, GT5, MGS4) are coming early next year and should boost sales a bit more. Also maybe Home will help a bit and whatever reputation PS3 gets from upcoming titles like Lair, Heavenly Sword and Warhawk, can be a fact in hardware sales on the upcoming months.
@Yotsuba:
You're right I totally forgot about that :)
