rendo said: Death2009 said: Actually the 360 is selling far better than the XB did in Japan and Europe, so sales are better. Which is exactly my point, Kwaad stating that similar PS2 and PS3 sales figures doesn't automatically mean the PS3 will sell 110m+ consoles. Obviously the 360 is selling better than the original Xbox. Wasn't a shot against any console, was just stating something that should be common sense in MOST peoples case.
Some just don't look at the numbers. The 360 has been good for MS and with huge titles cpming out later this year these sales will get better. I see the 360 selling 1 million in the UK alone...If they like GTA and RE series...and if Halo sells as well as it could. But I am not sure how GTA4 and RE5 being for the PS3 also will affect sales, should make them a lower for each system...Just not sure by how much,

The 360 is anything but dead. Expect a lot of consoles to be sold in the latter part of the year with games like GTA and Halo 3 coming out, not to mention all the "ps3 exclusives" that are finding their way onto the 360 (Assassines Creed, UT 3, Mercanaries 2, etc). A lot of people I know are holding off buying a 360 because of the incessant rumors of an impending upgrade to the system and price drops.

I don't know many people in Europe who haves an Xbox 360 still it is for sure not dead. I think X360 will do it great for years in the US but I think in Europe the PS3 will own the X360 very fast maybe already next year.

at 199 in Europe .......no one wants an x360. with launch of MOTORSTORM in 3 days time US falls to SONY domination. GUNDAM has made shockwaves and with a price cut in some months time..JAPAN would fall to ps3 domination as well.. It all comes down to ps3 vs 2*(nintendo+ ms) by the way CELL is now cheaper + the exclusion of EMOTION ENGINE saves SONY atleast 100$ so SONY might not be loosing a lot per console nowadays

Sony is getting bitchslapped by Nintendo in Japan..Japan is wii land. Sorry but it's true. It's a two horse race in the US between Nintendo and MS, Europe may be SONY'S LAST STAND!

Seriously? Is that the 1million offically announced or the 1.5-2million expected?

This is completly contradictory to what I've been hearing, namely that stores have yet to fill their quota of launch day units. At the very least you can still pre-order PS3's at the uk amazon
