The bigger question is, why isn't the Xbox so strong in EMEAA.
I mean the PS3 and 360 are such similar consoles, it's hard to understand why the PS3 has outsold the 360 in EMEAA despite the 360 having an extra year on the market. IThe games aren't that different, PS3 just has more adventure games while 360 has more Shooters.
For americas, it's easy to see why the 360 is so popular, brand name. MS is American right? So if PS3 and 360 offer similar services, most will choose the domestic product. Same reason why Xbox is selling soo poorly in Japan (except in Japan, they really don't catch on with imported products).
Also Shooters are really popular in Americas, which the 360 has the most of.
However the 360 has more racers. PGR 3 and 4, Forza 2 and 3, and other good exclusives like Test Drive: Unlimited. Yet PS3 is still more popular in EMEAA even without GT5 released yet. Are Action Adventure games really that big in EMEAA?
Maybe because of the brand name Sony developed during the PS1 and PS2 era, it's gotten popular in the EMEAA, where in americas, the playstation brand has been overshadowed by Nintendo and MS.
Brand name is respectable, thats how Nintendo and Sony are such strong gaming companies, but MS only has brand power in the states because it's American. It's really silly how people go out of their way to go domestic.
At least 360 is a quality system, but I hate it when I see Buicks everywhere when Acura, Lexus, BMW, Mercedes, and even Infinity offer a better quality product. I mean why are Chevrolet and Chrysler still around? Why did you have to bail them out Obama!?!?
