By quality/quantity of games, as well as bonuses within the year C. A mixture of both If A is true... -360 did better in sales 07 and 08, by a small margin both times being less then 1mill apart. -360 would be the correct SOTY then! Yet, everyone says this is not how we decide. If B is true... -in 07 PS3 had lackluster game selection. 360 Won hands down. -in 08 PS3's game selection blew 360's out of the water with such highly rated exclusives and gaining a few of old 360 exclusives(Bioshock and Eternal SOnata). 360 gained FFXIII as a MP title. Both companies went for a price drop at different times of the year. -PS3 would be the winner with more going for it this year such as Games quality and amount of them, had a price cut, HOME released, and gained two ex 360 exclusives. IF C is true... -07 360 won hands down with better sales and games. -08 PS3 had better games, but slightly lower sales trailing by a mere 600k. 360 didn't have the game selection of PS3, but due to price drop out performed PS3 in sales. -Conclusion: DRAW both were on par with each other. Where one excelled in sales the other excelled in software. This is the point I have been trying to make for the last 8 pages that you do not seem to be getting. |
Really? I thought your point was that 2008 was the year of the PS3. For the majority of your posts, you were trying to convince us that this year was still the year of the PS3. You seem to think the PS3 is treated unfairly by the press. Those are your points. Not that they would in fact tie. And I'm sorry, but anyone that says the PS3 got bad press and the 360 got good press, where were you when the RRoD was on every blog and news site, and all the "doom and gloom 360" threads were going on. The fact that you ignore this again shows your fanboy ignorance. You are either very bad at expressing your points, or happen to have just contradicted yourself so badly to make anyone following this thread question your sanity. I don't think anyone ever mentioned how we decide the console of the year, but the way it is decided in the media, and by Sony's and Microsoft's standard, is sales, unfortunately.
