The XBox 360 will outsell the PS3 by 1 million units. A big victiory in US will make up for losses in the other two regions. Europe may even go to 360 with Natal launch. By the end of the year the 360 will have all the sales momentum with Natal, Halo: Reach + lots of exclusive games and more price cuts. Go the XBox 360 and I hope you crush the PS3 in console sales. |
Put down the crackpipe man, it's not doing your brain any good :)
As I posted in the headline for this topic:
think it will be a close race for the US. Europe and Japan are definatly PS3, especially when/if GT5 hits.
Although going back to my original thinking, 360 doesn't really have any system sellers this year, except Alan Wake. And don't say Fable 3 or Halo Reach, as if the people are fans of that franchise then they already have a 360 for the previous games.
I think PS3 has a solid chance at outselling the 360 in the US this year, it has the better lineup (imo) of games, and the games that are coming out are not reiterations of a previous game (this generation anyhow). For example, GOW3 and GT5 are probably the best system seller games for the PS3, but it has a ton of other great games that are 1st iteration for this gen as well.
Unless Natal really catches on, I can't see that selling a ton of systems, neither do I think the Arc will sell many systems.
*and*
GOW3 has no new games on the PS3, you could argue God of War Collection, but really, it is the PS2 games just fancied up. You could also say GT5 Prologue came out, but I know a lot of people that didn't buy it because the game was a DEMO. You could race a few tracks, etc. Was kinda funny my brother asked me why he couldn't upgrade his cars, I was like it's a demo, GT5 doesn't come out until the end of the year (that was in summer last year)
Also, those are probably the 2 best system sellers this year, there are other great games that may or might not push systems, ps3 has a great exclusive lineup this year. Some can be seen:http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=19171
Sony's issue is they don't promote their games enough, I didn't see any "mainstream media" for MAG at all, all I saw was online stuff.
Same for WKC and Heavy Rain.
I think they are going to advertise the hell out of GOW3 and GT5, or at least I would hope so.
And with the same price point, a removable HD, BR player, Bluetooth, seriously, not even on the basis of gaming, it *IS* the better value for your money, you can't argue that :)
*All of the above was my own opinion*
And I own all the consoles, and I plan on getting Fable 3 and Reach and Alan Wake when they come out as well :)
