Just so you know, I definatly think PS3 has a decent chance at becoming second eventually. Just like the analysts this thread is based on, I don't think it will happen this year.

As for 2010 sales, 360 did marginally beat Sony on software, but for the second year in a row Sony beat MS in hardware. If you look back, you will see hardware sales have always fluctuated between the two consoles. Fall 2008-Fall 2009, Microsoft grew the lead from 5 to 8.1 million. Fall 2009-Summer 2010, Sony reduced the lead from 8.1 to 3.9 million.

Since last summer, the PS3 has managed to gain 400k more sales, that's nothing!

Anything can happen, who knows how this upcoming price cut will afftect the 360/PS3. However whatever the situation, 360 should be ontop in software, and if you agree with the analysts, hardware for both consoles should tie. So the gap might return to the 4 million range, which it's been the majority of the PS3's life.

Note: To your other post....I'm not argueing which is better, never was. How the heck did you interpret that? I was only correcting someone for stating that PS3 software sales is stronger then 360s. Jay gets it.

you just cant accept xbox getting outsold????? and you know ps3 have more actived user base right????? do some reaserch before you type


360 has increased the shipped gap by 600,000 in less than a year....

Exactly, and No PS3 doesn't have more active users. PS3 has more registered PSN accounts, but the number of active online accounts favors 360. That said, a lot of people play offline, so that can sqew the data, and on XBL you can set up an offline, non XBL account. Those can't be added, which also sqews the data.

dude do some reaserch
