Forums - Sony Discussion - The thread that won't end until the 360 and PS3 have equal HW sales

Pycus on 04 December 2009

I wonder if shifting to 2010 32nm proccess'd make some shifting in balance of power because savings of the new proccess are up to 20% compared to 45nm. Maybe we'll see an wii about 139$ and xbox 360 at 169$ (arcade) and ps3 229$(cheapest) That kind of price war definetly would be interesting then that boring bundle war with natal games wands and stuff like this.



God of war predictions: 
1 day over 1m

ltd over 7m

PS3 overtakes xbox 360 by the end of 2011 fiscal year (march 2011)

Natal beeing not a big hit. Wand beeing less succesful then natal.

Ps3 ll have greater weekly sales then wii in june.

ps3 ll have  greater weekly sales then wii throughout q3.

Xbox 360 ll recive a price cut in 2011 fiscal year.

Gran turismo 5 ll outsell halo 3 odst in first day sales and ltd, also it ll outsell halo 3 in ltd. 

Uncharted 2 ll get pass 5 m mark in 2011 fiscal year.

Sure it would Pycus....if the 360 releases its own slim version

well if Nvidia didn't fuck up with sony with their prices, they could get the GPU to 45 nm as well.

Expect this club to last a few years if not indefinitely.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Not really a genius....I just see the PS3's stock as on an upward trend and I think that it would be cool to tell the story of how the PS brand came back to make a name for itself again.

Even if the ps3 beats the 360 (which is a very slim chance).........its still not making a name if you barely beat a console you destroyed in sales last gen and one you beta last gen is destroying you in sales.

aah damage control my friend. This is classic spin. You just keep moving the goal posts don't you?

Remind me what exactly why the PS3 coming in second to the Wii is a great success?  That is what the PS3 is looking at unless it somehow breaks through with the wands, or something else, that causes the casual Wii fans to switch.  In the case of the 360, it is a step up from where the XBox was last generation.  But the PS3 is a success how if it does this?

Looks like this thread will end soon! I expect PS3 > 360 as of January 1st, 2011.

With such outstanding sales I expect the GAP to close at any time...

counting now...

waiwaiwait...

almost there... just a sec...



Wonktonodi on 07 December 2009

I don't expect it to pass it before 2011 and even then I'm thinking it might not happen till 2012 just like the wii fans wanting 50% market share those last million are the hardest if they happen
