ahhhh jealous ps3 fanboys...

 

i love it! =)


I have been banned for worse, count yourself lucky!

Both the PS3 and 360 side are correct here:

- The 360 is doing very good, but maybe could/should be doing a little better.

LOL

The 360 should be doing better?

It is the middle of summer, proven to be one of the slowest time for hardware sales.  The new 360 launched with just a redesign NO PRICE CUT.

It's out of stock everywhere almost still.

There is zero hardware pushing software released in the past couple weeks.

and its outselling every single platform on the market.

So how exactly should it be doing better i'm just honestly curious.

- It had BIG stock clearing sales which counted for a lot of sales

- It has had marketing, the PS3 Slim had less marketing from the off

- One of the biggest 360 flaws has been addressed (in the eyes of the public) - RROD

- Great upgrade offers were present (at least in the UK)

- It is an upgrade, wheras the PS3 Slim seemed like a downgrade

- This is the 'newest' console and it is CHEAPER than the competition

- Low stock = MS's fault

Don't get me wrong, it's doing very well - but those are potential reasons as to why it should be doing better/could be doing better. So please don't go through each point replying as this thread will go off.

I admit it's exceeded my expectations by a lot though.
