| Wright said: This thread reminded me that I don't think PS3 really got to be on top of the Xbox 360. Looking at the last time Sony and MS provided any number for their total hardware sales for both, and then adding the VGChartz estimates from that point onwards in time, 360 still comes ahead in total sales. That's how I made the calculations anyway, unsure if you're supposed to follow any other specific formula because I'm not a numbers guy. |
The last shipment stated by Sony was 80 million in November 2013 while MS posted a 84 million shipment in June 2014. The IDC suggests that the PS3 was ahead of the 360 (77 to 76) as of December 2012, how they got that data is not clear. No one really knows for sure who ended up on top but the general consensus seems to be that the PS3 managed to eventually edge out the 360.
