Just so we are on the same page ...

"It's not working. The Xbox 360 is consistently getting beat by the Wii and PS3 despite the cost-competitive Arcade SKU looming off to the side."

 

^ Fail.

 

^fail.

some months doesn't beat a yearly war.

and the wii its STILL outselling it.

^ MEGA FAIL

Don't u see the bolded terms. PS3 isn't consistently beating 360 and hell who would have thought it would lose to 360 for 5 weeks and counting in Japan. Not consistent coming from SONY. And its actually quite surprising its outselling according to this site as it is crappy and not worth it according to IGN.

 

 

If PS3 did a pricecut right now and dropped it $50-$100.00. (which they won't... 100% sure of it) you think you can use cheap price as a number 1 selling excuse? PS3 is the most expensive console on the market YET it still beat the 360 half of this year. This is truly sad... especially when you think a cheaper console would be selling more (which Wii is doing but not 360 until now)

Consistently.... we can use this as "PS3 consistently sold more units from November 11th, 2007 to July 20, 2008 worldwide"  about 37 weeks> 5 weeks of sales. Unless 360 can do 32 more weeks of WW sales beating the PS3 every week, then I see no reason to talk about how its price is making it sell cause it won't last forever. I am guessing this is 360's last week winning in a row... total of 6 weeks.

The winning streak is over next week... sorry.

 

I think you are maybe right if LBP and Resistance 2 bring in the numbers that Sony is hoping for. The fact that the 360 now has consoles on the market that are 200+ dollars less then a PS3 and only outsold the PS3 WW by 26,000 units is telling. Very very telling.

At first I was thinking that Sony might just be forced into dropping price before Holidays with those first couple weeks of the 360 price cut, but I dont think so anymore.

But this is all way off topic.



I own all three current consoles and a great gaming rig, now thats out of the way.

"Why post something like this when all it will get is PS3 owners blinded to reality replying? BOTH THE PS3 AND BLUE-RAY WILL NOT LAST 3 YEARS! TECHNOLOGY CHANGED TOO FAST!"

"is it Wii FIt that has sold as many as PS3's sold? Thats a LOL Look at the total sales of software is it just me that sees Nintendo titles hitting 10m+ and you say they arent making a difference? Another LOL!"

"Hell, with all the negative hype Sony spin, people just aren't interested cost is too high and to get the true HD experience (1080p, 7.1 surround) you will need a $1000+ system. THAT IS GOING TO DO IT IN A RECESSION! PS4 will not happen"
