Xbox 360 and PS3: Success or Failure?

[Argh_College]

Xbox 360 is a big success...

-> They went from 24m Sold to >80m Sold very Soon

-> Xbox Live makes >1 bilion per year

-> Probably over 45m now on Xbox Live or 50m

-> XBLA has huge library and great sales, Minecraft is closing 5m wich is huge

-> Kinect is already way above 20m Shipped and here we have at ~19m sold in 2 years = Huge Sucess

-> Software Sales for 360 will surprass 800m Next Year according to VGChartz and probably 900milion-1Bilion when the Console is killed

-> Giant Brand, approaching next gen many people will stay on 360 due to Achievements, GamerScore, Friends List and so on... Plus if we can connect with 360 Parties and Friends it will be a GIANT plus.

-> Huge 1st Party success, building new Studios to Next Gen so they can make more key franchises. Halo, Gears of War, Forza Motorsport, Fable, Dance Central, Kinect Sports, Adventures...


Ps3 :

-> Went from 150m sold to >80m Next Year should hit 80m

-> Bleeding Money, Software sales are very good but some exclusives lag in sales compared to other games

-> Huge library of games, amazing exclusive games, huge success here

-> Blu Ray did nothing, Sony must have lost milions with it

-> 3D is a Fail, Sony push did nothing

-> Amazing Ps+ Service with tons of Free Games, well worth the money... Psn overall stills lags behind the infrastucture and simplicity of Xbox Live and Steam

Overall is a success in its own way, Sony lost money and its rated to Junk but as a Gamer Ps3 is amazing, games are top notch and the online experience although not quite mathes what Steam or Live offers it stills pretty consistent, overall a solid package from a great Console.
