I think 360 will end up having a lead of maybe 4.5-5.5 million by the end of this year. And 5 million difference is not much anyways. Lets face it 360 came out a year earlier so it is natural for it to be ahead throughout this gen. The wii is a special case because well it was cheaper and was the "cool" thing to buy.
oh wait im going off topic. Anyways it might be possible. Blu ray sales are increasing every year. The ps3 price is decreasing every 1-2 years. Ps3 so far has the best line up for 2011. I dont think the 360 will even come close to the number of quality games ps3 will have next year. All those games might actually sell a bunch of consoles. Imagine the PS3 going $200-$250 next year too! Either way people who don't own a ps3 will be missing out. Luckily i own both 360/ps3 :) |
Well the PS3 will be dead sooner then most think. I give it two years tops..Sony is rumored to be burning the midnight oil hoping to get their Next Gen PS4 out alittle before MS's Next Gen console this time.. So i love all the speculation by too-blindly-loyal Sony fans that somehow someway everyone in the world is going to change their mind and go buy a PS3 just because (insert reason here) .. Yeah you're right PS3 is getting cheaper, problem is Xbox 360 is getting cheaper too.. Blu-ray is selling decent, but going by sales trends - it will never outsell DVD players or have the market share that DVD had in its peak ? Why ?? Its a different world.. Digital downloads are taking over, the optical business model is changing.. Someone important in the indistry recently said if customers have to choose between convience and better quality, they'll go with CONVIENCE. I order 720P movies all the time on cable.. people use redbox and all sorts of media outlets that didnt exist back in DVD's hay-day.. the Music industry just 4 years ago still sold most music on disc.. but not anymore.. now downloads have overtaken media.. Is media dead - not by a long shot- but this is a trend that only a fool would ignore.. Most cable internet providers are only increasing ( you're seeing doubling and tripling ) download speeds over the next few years.. which means no waiting.. GT will likely sell millions, but it wont be anywhere near PS3's #1 seller COD MW2 ( 8.1 million units sold lifetime ) and it'll be NOWHERE near the console pushing Halo Reach ( that did 4.1 million in only FIVE days )
