If you look at the circumstances, the 360 is by far the underachiever of the lot: all the "big" games are already out, but sales are lagging and are overly unimpressive for every region save for NA, where it is beaten by the Wii. The PS3 has been out far shorter, has had no christmas season and has had a considerable price disadvantage over its competition, so; judging by circumstances it is doing great... I never thought it'd sell this well without any of the high rollers released yet! Even in the face of Halo 3, MP 3, Mass Effect and SMG it persists and climbs on the sales ladder WW, that's no mean feat, and anyone who can't recognize that should be hesitant to throw their analysis around too much. |
How can the 360 be the underachiever? They where second last gen by almost 100 million consoles. They have needed the price points and great games to overtake the Playstation as people favorite console or second favorite if you include the Wii in terms of sales. People think it was easy for MS to have a nice 8-10 million cushing while finally making money on top of that 1 billion spent on that whole rrod mess. For them to be up by this much at this stage they doing better then expected if you ask me. Honestly I am just waiting for that sweet $199 price tag in march or so to see what SONY does then. Bottomline is the 360 is up by millions and is making money with great developer support. Go 360 GO!
