Seriously I'm getting tired of the price drop excuse. The 360 is still cheaper to get than the PS3. And most stores are giving $100 discount as we speak. No console has better deals, cheaper deals than the 360 right now.

Exactly.  I would love to see the numbers the 360 would be pulling if there weren't such great holiday deals.  And I'm not saying MS is wrong for having them, cause they're not, but for MS fans to act like the 360 is outselling the PS3 these past few weeks with "no price cut" or "very little effort" is just rediculous and quite naive.



It's still not a worldwide pricecut, deal with it.

"Ridiculous and naïve", funny you should be calling others that, absolutely hilarious.

Well in the UK you can get the PS3 cheaper than 360 S console at many places.

I don't know. If the PS3/360 ends up winning the year by 100k or less, then it would fall under "statistical tie" territory. A victory by such a miniscule number would be nothing to brag about (imo). If anything, I still see the 360 ahead of PS3 worldwide (overall) by the time the next Microsoft/Sony systems come around in 2013/2014.

It shouldn't be just by 100K.  The 360 will probably outsell the PS3 by ~250K-300K next week, but the PS3 will probably outsell the 360 by ~80K or so the final week.  I would guess the gap is going to end up ~350K-400K in the PS3's favor.  Then, there's always adjustments that will be made around the end of Jan-beginning of Feb.

the last week isnt so certain... I dont think it will be quite the same as last year.

the PS3 will end up outselling the 360 for the year by about 1%.

No idea why people are thinking PS3 will win the last week by such a margin. It was only 100k last year in the face of shortages. 360 is up 100k a year per week, along with no shortages, PS3 may win but not by any margin it did last year.

This is now the 3rd most successful Sales thread on VGC, ever!

Imagine if you'd started the thread a couple of weeks earlier.   I expect it'll take 2nd place at least by the time all's said and done.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Also, could anybody do me a favor and post the 360/ps3 sales totals for 2010?

13,884,453

13,378,231

was there adjustments?

the anual summary shows very different figures for 2010

 

 

I will check again using the global chat data (with the lastest adjustments)...

Week Ending 02nd Jan 2010

PS3: 32,376,827
360: 36,932,992

Week Ending 01st Jan 2011

PS3: 46,261,280
360: 50,311,223

2011 SALES

PS3:  13,884,453
360:  13,378,231

I know that's not exactaly 2010 but there are no way the numbers showed in Anual Sumary are in line with the sales chartz.

EDITED

The same period using the old Hardware Table (without the lastest adjustments):

PS3: 14,391,371
360: 13,606,638

I guess the Anual Sumary uses the old data (can anyone ask to ioi which is more acurrate?).
