god will you people stop saying its already sold 8 mil more.yes it has sold 8 mil more but the consol has been out a year longer than the ps3 so this does not come into the debate.how many times do i have to say it.the ps3 sold more consols in 2 years than wat the xbox had sold in two years.ps3 is going to outsell xbox.you just watch and microsoft knows ps3 is a better consol than theres and the fact that they drop the price of there consol whenever ps3 drops shows it.microsoft are desperate trying to keep people going for the ps3 which is really sad because gamers are getting let down by games on all sides just cas microsoft want revenge on the company that destroyed them last gen.but its a fools revenge because it was all microsofts fault.they shouldnt have released a consol into a market knowing how famous the ps2 was.i just call things how i see it.

Well, this is the real world. Until you can travel back in time and undo that first year, it matters.
The higher install base is the reason why multiplats sell more copies on 360.
Multiplats selling better on 360 is the reason why Sony lost so many big name exclusives this gen.
Selling better means devs work harder to make sure that version works, which is one reason why MS gets demos early, gets DLC and in general has the better performing and less buggy version of multiplat games.
All of this combines and paints a picture positive picture for the 360.
The thread is about will the 360 maintain its sales lead. When its getting former exclusives to go multiplat, its gets the better version of most multiplat games and it has its own exclusives to counter the few that the PS3 has, I have to say that it will maintain. Especially when its already 8 million ahead.
You can whine, pout and cry that it only has that 8 million because it came out early, but it still has that 8 million. We can agree on that? Until Marty and Doc Brown go back in time and change that, its always going to have come out first. Even in the year 3399, the 360 will have come out before the PS3. Nothing will change that.

So why wasn't this whole "1 year head start" mentioned in reference to the PS2's success (which was longer if you count the Japanese release) compared to the Xbox and Gamecube? That's Sony's fault. The PS3 was SUPPOSED to come out in the spring of 2006, less than 6 months after the 360 but couldn't pull it off. You can't caveate the release dates. They are what they are. If so, then lets say that the head start that the PS1 had on the N64 shouldn't count either.
So thank you Mr. sickVisionz for bringing some balanced thought to this discussion.

for a consol thats had the head start of a year and only managed to sell 8 mil more consols is very pathetic if you ask me.in 2 years time when ps3 outsells xbox get ready for all doom threads about the ps3 being bumped with told yous so.yous can cry whine or pout about xboxs victory but the consol war aint over yet infact ps3 is only starting to fight back after microsofts 3 year battle in this war.in case yous havnt noticed but ps3s first year didnt have many games meaning they had no ammunition to fight back with but there weapons developers have been busy and sony is slowly building up its armoury and soldiers all over the world are starting to see the beauty and destruction they can have with the ammuntion.while waiting impatiently for the mother of all nukes to come along and disintigrate the xbox 360 to pieces which might be annouced at this years tgs event.
by the way ive one more thing to say.when squire enix releases ff13 multiplat and millions of xbox owners buy it and love it.wat will they do when they want to play ff13 verses.you dont think theyll buy a ps3 just to play it do ya.hum does sony and square enix have a plan up there sleaves.i think so
