| PDF said: ** YES, The 360 will beat the PS3 this gen ** - at best the ps3 will tie or only slightly beat the 360 - at worst it will lose by 10m - it will probably end around 5m behind. REASON - yes there is only one reason Microsoft is a bad ass company that is very good. I love Sony but they could learn some moves from MS. MS wont let Sony beat them. They declared that at 08 or 07 e3 I cant remember which but I laughed at it then. I now realize they were very serious and going to make sure it will happen. 360 winning has nothing to do with Halo Reach or Natal. Has to do with MS knowing how to market, and make smart business decisions. (in terms of gaining market share, not money) Im a sony fanboy but my money is on MS console next gen. |
MS has a console for the short run, PS3 is for the long run, with a longer life-cycle. MS are loosing now with a far cheaper console(the arcade costs 179 euro) and the gap continue to drop. it was 8.2, 8.3M before the SLIM, now is 7.39M, in just 5 weeks! MS sold 13.3M 360 in 2 years, Sony sold 19.1M PS3 in 2 years. MS sold 23.76M 360 in 3 years, Sony already sold more than 25M, and they will do their 3rd year by 23th March 2010 in Europe 
Sony sold with a higher average weekly worldwide selling-rate since both 360 and PS3 launched, and now PS3 is slapping the 360 in the face. PS3 is very strong in all territory, while 360 slowing down everywhere, and dieing in Japan. Famitsu said PS2 selling more than 360 in Japan now. The only reason why MS sold more as total user-base is that 360 launched 1 year before in America and Japan, and nearly 1 year and half before in Europe. Some people seem to forget this little detail.
