I have no idea why people compare PSP and 360... for most of this gen the ps3 was massively outsold by the PSP too... so what? its apples and oranges.

anyway... PS3 and 360 gap isnt going down too quick. The threads earlier this year which stated that the PS3 wouldnt drop below 200k all year look a bit daft.... as expected

Its all down to E3 and the xmas sales now... the next 6 months decide if the PS3 ever overtakes the 360 during this gen (before the release of the Nextbox, wii2 that is)

Human nature. People were comparing and making gifs when the GBA was outselling the PS3.

Also I don't know why people keep insisting that Natal is not the next XBox, MS has already said that it is and is treating it as such, with a huge marketing campaign to follow, Natal is the next XBox, that comes straight from the horse's mouth.

the  reason people were comparing the GBA to the PS3 was that GBA was a dying systewm (much like the PS2 right now), while PS3 had just launched. So it was very comical having the GBA aoutsell the PS3 week after week.

It would be the equivalent if PS2 outsold the 360 for a couple of weeks. Or if the DS outsells one of the current gen systems 1 year after the 3ds launch.
