| mario64 said: Ah ah yeah bladeofgod, the amount of "meltdown" and bitter posts from MS fans in those sales threads has been staggering recently. It feels like a Britney Spears fan club in it now. It's a sales website, so if you don't like some disappointing numbers, just don't read those threads or avoid posting in it. MS fans cared more about sales in 2006, strangely enough. |
Ok, lets talk about sales.
360 has gone from ~25m last gen > ~37m and counting this gen
PS3 went form ~130m > ~32m and counting this gen
Sales numbers show the 360 has made up some awesome ground to a titan of the gaming industry. I also concede that PS3 will finish above MS at the end but still masive turn arounds dont happen all in one gen, unless your name is Nintendo...=0)
As for people complaining about the price point thats an excuse and nothing more. Its also a poor one. The PS3 is more expensive than the 360 because its more powerfull. So Sony made a more powerfull machine and is taking huge money hits to sell it. If they sold it at the price of the 360 from day one they would be screwed. I also dissagree that they knew this was ganna happen. Sonys was a bunch of cocky doughbags. They thought everyone was ganna go out and "get a second job" to buy there over priced system and they were wrong.
Now i just want you all to know i love my PS3, yes i own one. I would not own a 360 unless i got one free. MS is a bunch dickheads with there $100 wireless adapters and faulty systems. But with that being said you cant ignore the facts that MS has done some great this this gen and Sony F'ed up.
With all that being said theres nothing wrong with PS fans here being happy there system is selling well. But act like adults please. You never know when MS will come back and whop your asses and these treads will be brought back up again. And if some MS fanboy is trying to tell you not to be happy just ignore him and go play some of thoes fantastic PS3 games and take comfort if knowing that same 360 fan will prob be sending his 360 back to MS for its 3rd RRoD sooner than later and we can all have a laugh.
So go ahead and spin that all you like.
