According to the official Quarterly statements,

Sony has sold 41.6million ps3s, while
MS has sold 44.6m 360s.

Both MS and...

@ All_4_one

No, that's false.
The official numbers actually are
ps3: 41.6
360: 44.6

People keep repeating that Ms reported 44.5 sold when in fact, they reported 44.6.
Pay attention people... this is how FUD is born!

edit:
I just gotta laugh at all the weak fanboys that disagree with facts:

it is already doing well with the casual market.

The good news is, core gamers will be catered to as well.
It's just a matter of time until developers put their creative juices to work and make some truly innovative new core experiences for the gamers.

That's a no brainer.

Voice recognition must be a complicated affair.
From what I hear, it works rather well on kinect.

Here's hoping that with firmware updates, they expand on the range of voice inputs, too.

@ Elven 6

Yes, I am right.
I am guessing that Darkride66 has a few multiple accounts floating about...

i think they are still angry.

Some of them were hoping this would fail.
But it seems to be doing well...

Maybe their anger is just beginning...

Whoa! Stirred up the hornet's nest there, huh?

Of course it's not technically a multiplat
Of course it's still technically a ps2/ps3 exclusive.

But in the real world, the above don't matter.
I will be playing Gears of War3 via emulation on PC soon.
To all practical intents and purposes, it will no longer be an exclusive, but rather a multiplat.

I find it amazing that people actually care enough to get u...

well, darkride66, I seriously doubt that your story is actually true.

given your posting history, you seem pretty keen on downplaying MS, the 360 and Kinect, so readers may be advised to take your comment(s) with a very large pinch of salt.

But maybe I am wrong and you are telling the truth?

In that case, if your friend is 'really' unhappy with his purchase, then he could always put it on ebay.
Going by current demand, he woul...

actually no, darkride66, that makes no sense.

You claim:
"With their inside info, you know when they start bailing out in their own accounts that somethings up."

Steve Ballmer would NEVER EVER dump his stock if he had info that something was up, because then he would go to JAIL for profiting on insider knowledge.
How unimaginably stupid would Ballmer be if he tried to make a profit on inside information?

Just like yo...

Oh dear playstation fans!

Since the advent of emulation, Playstation exclusives are not exlusive at all!

Even low end PCs can run Ps2 exclusive showstoppers like GOW.

Just wait, it won't be long until PCs emulate the ps3 exclusives too.
I guess it's fair to say that PS3 exclusives are really PS3/PC multiplats.

Well, Gigaware, I didn't know this from the start.
Some people had been speculating of course, but no one actually knew for sure.

That said, this is great news.

I am just sick of the Sony fanboy haters who had Kinect written off months ago and are looking for any excuse to hate.

Hopefully, the addition of some 'core' material will shut those sadsacks up.

wait.

so you're saying that a few hundred kinects, bought for resale on ebay, would make a dent in millions of day 1 sell outs?

Tinfoil hats, anyone?

Well said +bubble

It seems the Sony fans just can't help but flip flop about and try to make themselves feel better about the truth in this case.

Kinect seems to work remarkably well - not perfect - but better than what most would admit.

Kinect seems to have been well stocked by MS and is selling handily.. even selling out in most places.

Now, if I was a Sony fanboy, this would REALLY scare me.
After all, Sony fan...

Not sure what the problem is for that Darkride66.

He seems to be ignoring the fact that Kinect is getting a higher average user score than Move.

And I am not sure why Dark...

yes, good ol bloodmask.

We have been relying on him for years to submit quality articles.
Thank god someone here does it.

Well, it is shipped.

Sony was forced to clarify this issue, otherwise you fanboys would go on and on about how Sony only reports sold to consumers, which clearly is a lie.

then...

KB: So, is that 3 million sold or shipped?
*crickets*

So wait.

If Kinect isn't for you, then why bother telling people?
Do you think people give a rat's what is for you and what isn't?

sheesh. fanboy.

agreed.

It's so weird that the haters seem to get more fun out of hating than actualy playing games.

There is something seriously pathological about that.
