At the moment, I don't really care who comes out on top, as it's actually just fascinating which moves each company pulls to gain some sort of advantage

yeah and now it's reached 5.5 and decreasing!!
So the gap will fall below 5.5 mln. next week. And will keep falling.
Just to think it was 8 mln. some time ago(before price cut/slim) and will be 5 mln. in just several weeks.
Impressive.
PS3 launched at 600$. And still was able to outsell x360 in same time frame.

its a crazzyman predictions thats come true, thats as rare as a gold charizard pokemon card!!
Zorrox was Crazzyman. Who would of guessed that? A reasonable prediction thread here. Crazzyman of the past would of some how had the PS3 in front of the XBox 360 by the end of 2009. Gran Turismo 5 + FFXIII + PS3 Slim + $299 + B3LI3V3.

The end of 2009 sales gap will fall well within the 3.5 million to 5.5 million range.
5.2 million to 5.4 million. One more week of sales should bring the gap below 5.5 million.
of course which console launched played a role 360 had no competitors that 's why it gained ground

The Xbox360 sold 5.4 Million Consoles before the PS3 started so this gap should be closed already we just dont have the numbers. But infact PS3 sold quicker then Xbox360 because the PS3 was launched March 2007 in Europe and rest of the world. I thin even later in other parts. It started half a year later in the other half of the market. We have to add the additional sales of Xbox360 in others during those 6 months.
I will just make a quick calculation to make it 100% fair. Ps3 launched 11 November 2006 in NA and JAP the Xbox in 22 November 2005.
The Xbox sold 5.332 Mio Consoles until 11 November 2006 (actually the sales week ended really on launch day of PS3)
The Xbox had an advantage of 5.332 Mio consoles which is not even reached yet and the Xbox360 sold as quick as the PS3 in the same time period ? NO
Because in complete others the PS3 wasnt out yet so we have to add the sales during the 6 months in others where PS3 wasnt released and then we have the real difference and we can tell which console sold faster/better in the time period.
The Xbox360 sold between 11 November 2006 and 24th March 2007 in others were the PS3 was not launched yet 1204000 Consoles so the Xbox had a REAL headstart of 6.536 Mio Consoles. The difference is now 5.56 Mio:
6.53- 5.56
The PS3 sold 1 Million Consoles MORE then the Xbox360 in the same time. This number is going to shrink even more and even if someone trys to argument with 5.3 Mio it will be void in some weeks.
Even if most people dont care or dont want to care but fact is that the PS3 sold quicker then the Xbox360 in the same time.

I dont disagree that the PS3 has sold faster but I dont get what difference that makes to total sales.
It makes for pretty spin and puts the PS3 in a more positive light but it does not alter the cold hard fact that in the 3 years since launch the PS3 has barely closed the gap between it and its nearest competitor.

He only predicted PS3 correctly (between 5.25 and 6.25 million in the period 18 October - 2 Januari) His Xbox 360 prediction was way off (predicting between 2,5 and 3,5 million for the same period), while it is over 4 million already with 1 week to go.

Of course one also has to mention that its price played a huge part in that. Let's see how things go from here on out.
PS3 Will Be King By 2016.
PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

I have 2 of Crazzy's prediction about the end of 2009 here:
- HW for PS3: 42-45 mln., X360: 35-38 mln., Wii: 65-70 mln., PSP: 65-70 mln., DS: 125-127 mln. =)
- PS3 will be ahead of x360 atleast by 7 mln. by the end of 2009.
