360 is kind of weird in that way, I don't know why the attach rates are damn good. Yes PS3 software sales are coming closer (an sometimes notching the 360) but for games in comparisons they do damn well on the 360. 


It has to do with the userbase. A game catered to Americans (shooters for example) will sell better on XBox. A game catered to Europeans (Racers for example) or Japan (JRPS for example) will sell better on Playstation.

100% True. Lost Odyssey, a really good quality JRPG created by the creator of Final Fantasy only sold 600k lifetime. Final Fantasy XIII sold 2:1 better on the PS3 then 360, almost entirely because to the Japanese Market (which bought 2 million copies of FFXIII, as it was exclusive at the time in Japan). Also GT5 is likely to outsell Forza 3 by 3:2, but that may largly be due to brand recognition.

Yea agree with the last two post there.... I mean for america, take a look at halo reach U.S. sales, its 6 million US to 2 million worldwide sold (roughly of course)..... Then look at gt5,  3 1/2 million emeaa to 1.6 million U.S. America love the violence hahaha :D And i think microsoft were smart with packaging that forza 3 with consoles, it got the name out there better.... but i still dont think the newer one will sell more than gt5... I just hope for another amazing racing game like gt5 and forza 3, cause there both amazing.
