Forums - Gaming Discussion - PS3 Outsells 360 Every Year except '06 & '08

Interesting although in the period from 2005-2012 the Xbox 360 has outsold the PS3.

For reference from the period 2005-2012 the Wii has outsold the 360 and it has also outsold the PS3.

Not continuously and certainly not everywhere.

2005 -PS3 didn't exist. 2006-2012.  360 falls behind though.

Credit where credit is due.
marketshare:
X360 has been ahead of the PS3 this whole gen despite being handicaped due to competing in one less market(JP) and the huge global Playstation brand awareness. Doesn't matter if MS finishes last or not, they have already beaten Sony this gen and this is FACT.

Credit where credit is due.
Gaming experience:
Sony gave gamers the best overall gaming experiences this generation with their exclusives.

That credit matters.

The current generation started when the first console was released which happened in 2005. The Wii had no problems overtaking the 360, despite releasing later.

Just like the latest generation of consoles started now with the Wii U and it will be continuing when the new Xbox and PS4 are released.

BTW the PS3 did exist in 2005.

Should have I rephrased it to commercial launch then? Come on.

 I can apply the same kind of logic, how can a new gen start officially when the old gen is still going? Ps2 was only just now discontinued, this gen truly starts now. As logically sound as what you’re saying.
