PS3 is under tracked.... even i will state that this time... but I;ll wait for the NPD Group to confirm that. And yes if the PS3 is under tracked so is the 360.

3 rd troll post today

 

What consitututes this as a troll post, if anything your overly bias x360 postings are more troll than anything.

How is that a troll when i believe we have two consoles undertracked? I'm not showing biased towards either console. I just believe the numbers are a touch low.

 

OK. And your opinion is based on...?

What's amazing is the Wii increased it's lead by nearly a million on the PS3 in a single week!

No, what's amazing is - I still can't find a Wii for family, friends wanting one, despite the fact that over a million Wiis were sold last week. Wow - just wow.

OT: Wii and DS - monsters. 'Nuff said.

360, I am impressed. MS also offering 20gb hard drives too for cheap - so no more can critics say the console lacks an HD. LIVE took care of that. And ... with the HD, every 360 that has an HD has software BC. It's not 100 percent, but a great step in the right direction. And ... MS and retailers like Gamestop can tout Xbox original games - or offering Xbox users the chance to use the 360 to play their Xbox games. Full of win.

PS3? Shocked that the numbers weren't lower. Blu Ray isn't catching on as fast, especially with the lack of BOGOs. Maybe next Christmas with GT will be Sony's baby. Maybe not.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

2010 is not a problem for PS2....

All I want is for Ps3 to have a holiday better than last year.....as the price hasn't changed I will be happy with this.

Yup, that seems about right. The thing is, these numbers are tracking practically the same as last year, except this year the numbers are bad and last year they were amazing.

 

That's the beauty of competition I guess - always forcing you to outdo yourself and hopefully your competitiors.

 

Okay, for a little timeline perspective, the ps3 got it's $100 price cut last August from $599 to $499, and then it got another from $499 to $399.  So some are saying the ps3 NEEDS another cut to $299???  I'm not sure how it's going to be possible for sony to maintain any level of profitability with these negative margins.  and I can't imagine that they have improved production standards THAT much in a year's time frame to reduce prices over 50%.

Very true. This is what surprised me about the March price cut (if true). Maybe since less consoles are sold in that time, they can afford a bit of a bigger loss.

 Dude...reread ssj12's post. If kirby was showing bias towards 360, why wouldn't he want ssj to be right? Last line of the post.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

remember.  Your Wal-mart isn't nessisairly indicitive of reality.

MS' 3 to 1 statement was almost definitly due to NPDs weekly service.

Which would likely indicate if anything PS3 overtracked, or 360 undertracked but not likely both.



Nintendo must be living right about now.



Microsoft were off in outselling PS3 3:1, but did very well neverthless.

DS and Wii are just incredibly abnormally hugely huge... and both deserve it, especially DS.

As for Sony, they are far from being at their best... but at least they are not losing lots of money, and are pulling themselves together for 2009... godspeed!
