Will PS3 eventually pass 360?

@ robjoh
I think it will be outselling 360 by more than 2.5 to 1 next year WW. Japan and EU just seam like they will be to much for the 360. We will see, good luck to the both of us.

To start. PS3 will eventually pass 360. Thier is no way around it.

The Playstation Brand is a lot stronger in EU than it is in the US. Sony has a lot of its first party studios in EU also. Like I said in another thread a lot of PS3 exclusives are the biggest in Europe. Games like The Getaway, Killzone, MGS, GT, Singstar, and Buzz are all huge franchises over their and cater a lot better to the audiance than anything made in the US.

The PS3 has Japan without a battle. As time goes on the differance between the 2 systems will only grow. Next year I expect the PS3 to be outselling it at 3X the rate it has this year (about 45K a week to 3k a week).

In the US the 2 systems have drawn tightly together. This winter MS should have the early lead with Halo 3 and Bioshock. I think PS3 will win November December, because Uncharted, R&C, Home, and Singstar are much stronger than Mass Effect. That momentum should continue into the start of 08. At that point Sony has the best lineup going forward, so it should start to really close the gap, but you rweally never know until it happens which is why this is all speculation.

@ sporticus
Actually the System has continued to sell at a very similar rate even 5 weeks after its price cut. With a slew of exclusives coming over the next 3 weeks it should actually continue to get stronger. Also I don't think you fully understand the situation with the 80GB system. It will be able to play all the PS1 games the PS2 could play, and it will be 85% BC with PS2 just like the EU syatems are.
