The system, which on it`s second year doubles it`s lifetime sales, ALWAYS WIN.

1) x360 by the end 2006 sold LESS then 8 mln. consoles. 7,96 mln.
PS3 is going to do around 8,5 mln.

2) it looks like, x360 console 2nd year sales won`t pass it`s lifetime sales, mean that console FAILED.

Hardware Shipments:
PSone:
Sony Mar-1996 - 4.26 mln.
Sony Mar-1997 - 13.50 mln. and MORE then twice.
Sony Mar-1998 - 32.82 mln. -> around 30 mln. and MORE then twice
Sony Mar-1999 - 54.42 mln.

PS2:
Sony Mar-2001 - 10.61 mln.
Sony Mar-2002 - 28.68 mln. -> around 30 mln. and MORE then twice
Sony Mar-2003 - 51.20 mln.

PS3:
Sony Mar-2008 - i expect 10,57 mln.
Sony Mar-2009 - i expect 25,32 mln. -> around 30 mln. and ATLEAST 1,5 MORE

X360:
Microsoft Mar-2007 - 10.94 mln.
Microsoft Mar-2008 - i expect 18,93 mln. -> NOWHERE NEAR CLOSE TO 30 mln. and LESS then twice

It looks like, even shipments will be lower.
And that means X360 DEFINETELY WON`T WIN.

Where's FishyJoe when you need his sig?

Look, stop pulling out this load of rubbish all the time. This is the same crap Bill Gates was spewing when he said "the first console to 10 million always wins". It's just a random statistic that means nothing. In fact, look at this. I own a Gameboy, PS1, a DS, and a Wii. I could easily say "The game system I buy always wins." This doesn't mean that me owning a system means I win.

When you can tell me what the phrase "cum hoc ergo propter hoc" means then I'll listen to what you have to say because every single post you ever make screams of logical fallacy.

Now until you learn about the real world, please stop spamming the threads with your useless statistic. We've all seen it. We all know it's bollocks. Go away.

 

 

 The cool thing here is that you've done the same thing.  You claimed that the system that wins the first year always wins.  This is no more relevant and no less cherry picking than saying that the system that wins always doubles its year over year sales for the first 2 years.  Welcome to hypocrisyland, enjoy your stay.
