Why is eveyone sayin 360 has a 9 million gap on PS3? Hope you're not going by VG Chartz graph. According to Sony the PS3 has sold 22.73 million units as of March 31, 2009. 360 has sold 30.2 million units as of the same date (Edit: Whoops, the sales number for 360 was as of May 29th.) That's a 7.47 difference in units sold. Of course that was a few months ago, however it seems that VG Chartz is updating the 360's numbers as it is at 31.24 units sold. If PS3 would have sold no more consoles then that is still only a difference of 8.5. Of course everyone knows that's not the case. Which leads me to a question that I hope someone will answer.
WTF IS GOING ON WITH THE VG CHARTZ GRAPH?
Just a week or so ago I saw that the 360 was at 30.87 and PS3 was at 22.87. So logically, I thought they were updating both. But now PS3 is at 22.45 million. Why did they subtract 420,000 consoles sold instead of adding how many they have sold since March 31st, like they have been doing with tthe 360. I see why people would think 360 is so far ahead if they only see these numbers. Now maybe they subtracted instead of adding. Which is a stupid mistake given it's simple math. But if that is the case then PS3 would be at 23.29 million sold. Which means the gap would be at 7.95 million. Now that still is a growth in the gap. But not that big considering PS3's are twice as much initially. And definitely not this 9 million people want to shove down our throats.
