Over 50% of people buying it don't know there's extra content. Over 75% of people don't care if there's extra content ( even the ones buying the 360 version)
I don't think the content is gonna be making a big difference. |
Yeah, that is a reality.
SO 17 mln. potential buyers will go among ps3 and x360..
and there is a possibility, tha ps3 version will sell better even in USA.
Though 5 mln. vs 11 mln.
LOL, i just looked hardware sales of PS2 before GTA3, GTA3:VC, GTA3:SA releases and after. There was NO boost in PS2 hardware sales. =))
So, it`s probably will be 2 mln. x360 version in usa, and 1 mln. for PS3.
Maybe 3 mln. and 2 mln. =)
Most hardcore gamers already sitting on x360 in usa, but those, casuals still will have to choise.
And yeah, when GTA3 came in October, there were only 4,975,222 PS2 sold in USA. But after Christmas, there were already 8,159,858.
Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...
2009.04.30 - PS3 will OUTSELL x360 atleast by the middle of 2010. Japan+Europe > NA.
Gran Turismo 3 - 1,06 mln. in 3 weeks with around 4 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Gran Turismo 4 - 1,16 mln. with 18 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Final Fantasy X - around 2 mln. with 5 mln. PS2 on the launch.

1.8 mln. PS3 today(2008.01.17) in Japan. Now(2009.04.30) 3.16 mln. PS3 were sold in Japan.
PS3 will reach 4 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 25k.
PS3 may reach 5 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 50k.
PS2 2001 vs PS3 2008 sales numbers =) + New games released in Japan by 2009 that passed 100k so far
