And just like that 65% of this forum are wrong......

Nice to see my 2nd quarter prediction was spot on :)


Congrats on your crystal ball skills predicting a price cut would push 360 above PS3.

However, from my remembering of this thread from a while back, wasnt the beef of the this pointing towards "trends" in the shrinking gap back in janurary and february? and YTD the PS3 and pulled in a 1.1 million lead WW.

PESPECTIVE: 360 has a price cut down and Slim launch, thus appealing to repurcheses and new prucheses (older models) in its largest region which accounts for 63% of its WW sales this year.

Now some quick maths, with the aforementioned numbers, the average the PS3 has outsold the 360 on a weekly basis was 48k....i simply took 1.1 million divided by 23 weeks so far this year......

soooo i guess a price cut and remodel in the region accounting for 63% of its weekly totals this year and 56% of its existing userbase is something to try to rub in the face of users.....but the logical thinker in me says you may want to hold back on your false alarm victory here, chief.



There is no false alarm, the 360 just outsold the PS3 worldwide. That was the question. If you go back over peoples replies your see quite clearly two type of people, the realists and the dreamers. One side said "when 360 get's a price cut" and the other said "PS3 will continue to outsell 360 every week". The fact that 65% of the forum were the latter is quite damning.
