So, the d0med console is up YoY. The hype lag $500M have made historic sales for 360 (imo deserved), and the always undertracked console is today overtracked.

Yup. Today is the end of the world. 2012 is a big fat lie.

I'll be honest, this is a complete flame post, but the PS3 zealots in this community fueled this flame.

Seriously, guys, I personally hate seeing so many here celebrating the PS3's performance in the US.  It feels cheap and petty.  Then I realize it has nothing to do with the PS3's performance but everything to do with the attitudes, threads, and posts of a vocal group here that many are happy to see get put in their place.  And that smug Kevin Butler guy too.

Hopefully this can be the start of more balanced discussion here about the performance and expectations of these three consoles this gen.  Yeah ...

I joined in 2008 but I started coming to the boards much earlier than that. All the newer members freak out when they see one console overtake another.

Frankly this generation has had such a ridiculous back and forth that I have come to expect the underdog making a comeback every year. What I don't understand are the veterans that continuously make fools of themselves when their favorite console starts selling well even though they have seen how out of control this gen is.
