hmm now who is doing a better job?



I like technology when its moving forward..

PSN: methys

i think PS3 will win



Go the PS3. I hope Pachter's numbers are right.

Sim Exchange and VGChartz basically have PS3 and XBox 360 tied.

I think the Wii will win. I wonder if it can manage to outsell the PS3/360 combined? According to Pachter it will ;-p

Me since the games were revealed, the fanboys since E3."

You need to point out that the % difference you put at that end is total difference/number of months.



Final* Word on Game Delays:

The game will not be any better or include more content then planned. Any commnets that say so are just PR hogwash to make you feel better for having to wait.

Delays are due to lack of proper resources, skill, or adequate planning by the developer.

Do be thankful that they have enough respect for you to delay the game and maintain its intended level of quality.

*naznatips is exempt

Unless Pachter is right about the spread between the two, this is another month where it doesn't matter who "wins". There's no difference in the sales if the margin is 2 or 3% with how estimated the numbers are.

I really am curious to see what happens come end of April/first week of May when GTA IV numbers roll in, especially with the advance reviews saying the game is great.



Can't we all just get along and play our games in peace?

I think the Wii will reach 600K at least, probably around 625-650K. The PS3 will outsell the 360 by about 30K. One more day...

VGC isn't close to SE, SE is close to us, their users largely use our numbers to make their predictions. :p
