PS3 will never surpass X360 software-wise. Not even with a 10 million consoles sold lead, period.

 

You do realize that a few multiplat games have done better on ps3 right. If you mean software totals. A year headstart alone would almost guarantee that.

Actually, since alot of PS3 owners like the use the equal sales based on years. Well...when the 360 was at 16 M consoles, they still pushed more sales units. It has everything to do with active user base.

 

This is why I think the ps3 doesn't seem to sell as much software. Check out the OP of this thread:

Well the one game that sells amazing for Sony is the Gran Turismo series. I believe that game alone carries the racing car genre on its back. I agree with most of what you said though. The JRPG's have been split between the 360 and the PS3 owners, so the 360 owners have no reason to buy a PS3 unless they want Versus and WKC. I was also saying that I would dare say that 1/3 of PS3 owners only bought it because the Blu Ray was cheap.

 

I don't know anyone who bought the ps3 just for blu-ray but my circle of friends are also gamers so I wouldn't know. As for GT, it's pretty much the last man standing but it really doesn't have any competition. It's almost like the windows of racing simulators.

 

The majority of Blu Ray DVD's that have been purchased have been purchased by people who had PS3's which outsold stand alone Blu Ray players. As you remember the PS3's existence was to save Blu Rays which were not needed just like HD DVD. The 360's highest selling gamd sold at half as many units as the consoles sold itself (When it was at 16 M). By the end of the year it might sell 10 M (who knows?). Sony cannot lay claim to this, where as their highest selling game sells 1/4 of it's installed base.
