Okay... so it was me who would tell this guy is wrong... again

 

 Well done I totally agree with you. You simply ignored that your graph lacked half of the numbers in the OP!

 

You are comparing 2006 + 2007 X360 vs 2007 + 2008 Ps3.

So your graph just ignored the OP. You did in no way at all prove this guy wrong.

Also, saying that this thread is wrong solely because he has made another that was, is really stupid.

 

Look at it this way.

Europe sales 8 weeks ending 24th November 2007:

Ps3: 690K

X360: 304K

 

Europe sales 8 weeks ending 22nd November 2008:

Ps3: 674K

X360: 955K

 

So Ps3 did about the same, whereas the X360 more than tripled itself, and outsold the Ps3 by over 40 %.

 

His assumption is that this means that the 360 is now a lot more accepted, and that this will keep it selling. Now, I don't know if he is right, but after he did all this work, you could at least give him the courtesy of answering him, instead of posting something completely else (that has nothing to do with the case), and ignore the work he did.
