Hellonearth even if we compare 360 to PS3 on November 11th,360 still outsold the PS3.

So? Why chose a specific date to favor your argument.
The ONLY fair way of comparing sales is to compare the Ps3's 2.5 year lifespan sales, to the Xbox360's first 2.5 years.
And Ps3 has sold BETTER than 360 in that same amount of time.

Thats not fair at all. The 360 has been out a year longer and always will have been out a year longer. It doesnt help Sony, Microsoft, or anyone else to try to base sales (of all things) in a fanciful world where they launched together.
All that matters is todays current sales. They matter because they well enevitably be closer to the end result than yesterdays sales, and most certainly closer than sales in the world of pretend.

It's not fair to compare 2.5 years of sales to 2.5 years of sales, but you think it's fair to compare 2.5 years vs. 3.5 years of sales.
LOL! Stop owning yourself.

We could compare 5 years to 2.5 years if you like. The point is to compare total sales.
|
and my point is that comparing total sales of a console that's been out for a whole year longer is RIDICULOUS.
People can fairly compare Wii and Ps3's sales and talk about how Wii is killing Ps3. But comparing 360 to Ps3 total sales is ridiculous as they are pretty much EVEN at this point in their life cycles.

Its not rediculous. Its the world as we see it today. Thats how business works. Even someone seeking a comparison would most likely be more interested in how the 360 performed after the ps3 was released, since it would be hard to get a comparison while it was on the market alone.
