360 Now Has 8m Gap Over PS3

[Undying]

The only way that the PS3 can catch up now is if the 360 stops selling. The PS3 needs to sell 700k more units than the 360 a month to catch up by Dec 2009 and I can't see that happening.

 

Yeah, it isn't even going to happen by Dec 2010.  By that time it will already be time to start seriously talking about the next XBox and the PS3 passing the XBox 360 by that point will be moot.

-edit-

I guess I should say isn't likely

It is possible at some point for the PS3 to outsell the 360 by 350k per month at some point, but up until that point the 360 is going to continue to consistently outsell the PS3 and that gap is just going to increase and get harder and harder to fill.  I'm not saying it's impossible for the PS3 to outsell the 360, I'm just saying it's likely not going to happen by 2011 and when/if the PS3 does the 360, it's not going to matter.

 

 

Meanwhile the PS2 keeps selling. That thing is gonna out live the PS3.
