You're forgetting the PS2 and PSP are also Sony products. Altogether not too bad for Sony i'd imagine.

just below 500k units ain't bad at all. Considering one of those is 8 years old and it's 2 competitors at it's height are long gone.

 

 

360s turn around is quite substanial, it makes little sense when you think that at one point 360 was cheaper then Wii and PS3 and didn't outsell it, now it's cheaper then it was but a bit more and it's competing with the Wii in some nations...what changed really other then the price?

 

 

 I think now a lot of people who were maybe waiting for the PS3 price cut have stopped waiting and bought a 360 now.

Those sales are wrong, everyone are buying the PS3.

also i could be wrong but this week sales last year where
ps3 = 230k
360 = 144k

so the 360 went up by over 50% where as the ps3 dropped 30%?

no you have to shift it back a week afaik...

In which case the PS3 is more or less flat YoY while the other systems got huge boosts.

The Microsoft Xbox 360 is doing very well.

On December 31th, looking at this year objectives, Microsoft execs review:

Outsell PS3 this year. .DONE.

Gain strong momentum leading to 2009. .DONE.

Succeed NXE transition. .DONE.

Strongly reduce RROD by hardware revision (Jasper). .DONE.

Gain marketshare in "oh-difficult-to-penetrate" Japan. .DONE.


They can be proud of themselves!
Good Job Microsoft!

You might also want to add this to the 360 doing well list:

Look at my sig!!!!!!!!!!

Not following the gap between PS3 and 360 that well myself, was your sig guessing that it'd be over or under that amount by the end of the year?

 

 I made my prediction beginning of Novenber end of October when the gap wa 5.6 mill. I was way off. But then again, M$ are killing Sony bad.
