Fact #1 : X360 is the best choice if you are into FPS. US = ,,FPS LAND''.

Fact #2 : X360 released one year earlier than the PS3.

Fact #3 : Sony made the biggest mistake making it so damn expensive.

Fact #4 : Teh Cell'z power had a way too big impact there,thus making people afraid of buying a PS3,because there was too much of a risk of making them into Sony-Zombiez.

People know these facts since...forever.

Should have posted this in the style of Rafa Benitez

"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

I stick my tongue into the waller more than the verb no thanks and its not even sanctioned. This thread is nonsense like Forza.

Edit - Not to mention, PS3 launched a year later and still managed to tops 360 in EMEAA. On a parallel comparison, the ratio shld be more like 18/25 million in EMEAA.

This thread is interesting because the 360 is dominant in FPS, like Halo. in other genres like action, adventure, RPG, racing, ie Uncharted, God of War and GT, these games have sold more than the respetive genres on the 360, expect for FPS and Gears (so shooters). not to mention the 360 has a substantial failure rate. you have to pay for online and you had to buy an external wifi adapter.

so its interesting why the PS3 is 10 mil behind in NA, when it seems better in the respects i just mentioned. obviously its to do with the price and the early launch of the 360, but does this explain why PS3 is still selling less than the 360 every week??

hold on I'll be back just making a thread called "360 is doomed in EMEAA and Japan".

As funny as this is, it's almost justified. Why make a thread like this? Literally, the exact same thing could be done to the 360, especially in Japan.

Way I see it, PS3 is never going to overtake the 360 in the States, but that's already been established.

agreed, and stating the obvious is just futile! wait a minute! i think a saw a thread like this 4 yrs ago? well maybe 3.

on the other hand this gen isn't over.(no dabate here)

The real answer I'm surprised no one has mentioned:

 

Xbox live friends

 

People want to play with their friends. Most American's/Canadian's friends have the 360, most Americans/Canadians buy 360 to play with their friends. The advent of the online services solidified this fact e.g my little brother originally wanted a ps3 as well but asked for a 360 because thts what his friends have. It's like a "self-fulfilling prophecy" if thats the right use of the term or maybe "positive feedback" would be a better term i.e more have something, more want very same thing to be among...kinda like joining facebook because all your friends did. This is the era of social networking afterall.

1. THATs WHAT ALL HIS FRIENDS HAVE

2. The lesser reason: I already have a ps3 (this is a lesser reason because I wasnt living at home at the time so it's not like he could play my ps3)

I believe you mean to say, "DOMED."
