| PS3beats360 said: The sales gap between PS3 and 360 has fallen by 1 million in only 5 weeks since the PS3 price drop. Huge Xmas sales period for PS3 should easily see another 2 or 3 million erased from the deficit to close out 2009. Gap between PS3 and 360 to be down to 4.25 to 5.25 million by 31 December 2009. The XBox 360 is not expected to have price drops until sometime in 2010. The console sales gap will be erased completely by the time a $149 XBox 360 Arcade appears September 2010. The $149 XBox 360 will have little impact on XBox 360 sales. PS3 has a lot of exclusive games that will boost its sales, whereas the XBox 360 only has Halo:Reach. Project Natal unknown and untested - I would not hold my breath on that really catching on. The writing is clearly on the wall. The XBox 360 will never outsell the PS3 in weekly sales ever again. Game Over XBox 360. The PS3 wins. |
you are an embarrassment to sony fans.
the ps3 is outselling the 360 by around 80k a week. there are about 10 weeks to go until year's end. these numbers put the ps3 gaining around a million units. in order to gain between 2 or 3 million by yr end means that the ps3 would need its holiday spike to be its biggest yet while the 360 has no spike. do you really believe this will happen? if so you are more delusional than i thought.
will the ps3 outsell the 360 for the rest of the year? yes.
will it have a higher total sales for 2009? yes.
will it have a much bigger holiday spike that the 360? yes.
will it close the gap to within 5 million units? not a fucking chance in hell.
i think people are forgetting just how big a million units is. with all the dominance the gap is still over 7 mill. even if we put the christmas spike peaking at 1 million units a week, that still would probably only cut another million off the gap. you can expect the 360 to do at least what it's been doing for christmas. there is just not enough time in the year to do what you hope it will. now by the end of next year is a different ballgame.
