Why is ppl surprised at UK 360>ps3 FIFA sales? with 360 having 2m more console there.

But same ppl weren't surprised that PS3>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>360 FF13 sales despite the exclusive advertisment for XBOX and bigger userbase wonder why.......(*cough fanboys*)


Doesn't change the fact that Fifia 2011 was market heavily as PS3 exclusive.

Actually they did pretty much equal numbers in UK so marketing worked considering userbase difference. 47% for PS3 and 50% for X360 version. Rest for Wii and PSP....


Yeah but if you look at the sales % on each format it goes like this

FIFA 09:
360 - 42%
PS3 - 40%

FIFA 10:
360 - 48%
PS3 - 46%

FIFA 11:
360 - 50%
PS3 - 47%

So Sony paid loads of money to get the exclusive advertising and progressed by 1% yoy. The 360 version had no advertising and increased by 2%. So not really sure you can spin it as a success to Sony really when you only increase by 1%?

Yes but to my understating it has been every year marketed heavily on PS3. That's the reason why sales are every year so close despite the userbase difference. Considering huge X360 S sales in UK lately it's not that surprising that X360 version increased the gap little. Especially as PS3 owners will probably again buy a lot more PES compared to X360 owners.
