Can the PS3 overtake the XBox 360 by January 1, 2013? | |||

It will do it easily. | 52 | 9.68% | |
No it will not happen. | 311 | 57.91% | |
Maybe, maybe not. | 98 | 18.25% | |

2. I know, but it's popularity is nowhere near the Kinect, so Kinect will appeal to the motion control market which will subsequently increase sales. 3. Yeah, I know, but it sells a lot more on X360. It always gives the X360 a massive hardware boost. . I doesn't matter where they sell, it matters how much they sell. |
no.. ps3 will most likely sell more in 2012 but it wont overtake lifetime sales. wait till next year for that to happen.

... :D but really, this gen is almost done, sony not king again, the competition and gamers "won" as competition results in more effort spent by companies. we can be glad that ms managed to have such a huge success this gen.
I only own a PS3 & PSP and I still don't see it happening. Besides, I kind don't give a damn if Sony is third. I feel like it has been a blessing in disguised. Let Sony keep feeling like they have to work extra hard for my money; I like it better that way, and if they don't, they can go the way of the dodo for all I care.
Probably not. But I don't think that the hollydays will widen the gap as much as last year, since the NA market is more saturated than the others and sales will probably be slow. If PS3 passes 360, it will be out of the hollydays season.
it will not... i think xbox will sell more than PS3 this holidays. how much its the question unanswered. i expect Ps3 to be the top seller for the whole year but with a smaller gap.

Theres no way. The 360 is going to outsell the PS3 by a fairly significant margin this holiday
HulkWasRight said: Will Halo 4 really improve 360 sales? It seems that anyone who's into Halo should have one by now. |
Look at Fifa.
Humans breed. Children age fast. The time between Halo 3 and Halo 4 the world grew a shit ton of teenagers.
The 360 is still 1.7 million units ahead, and PS3 has closed the gap 1.5 million units in 2012 so far. However, with Halo out, CoD next week, Black Friday the week after, and the following 4 weeks typically favoring the 360 substantially more then PS3, 360 should widen the gap by aat least 500k. That means, best case, PS3 narrowed the gap by 1 million this year (2012), and will be 2.2 million units behind. The two year prior the gap was only cut by 500k or so (and it probably will be the same this year, it will unlikely be a 1 million sales gap), so at this rate, PS3 can only top 360 in 3-4 years time.
However this gen is dying, chances are PS3 will have better legs due to sales in Latin America and such, so maybe 2 years, best case.
