Yes, but if you look at the last 10 months (to ommit the Slim effect), PS3 and 360 sold about on par. PS3 gained 800k in 2011, but Oct-December 360 gained about the same.

kickazz stop messing around lol! I thought you were trying to be serious. Look at the article I sent you, 4 analysts opinions (not just 1) who said PS3/360 should tie for sales in 2011. Ontop of that MS and Sony both expect 15 million in their fisical year.

Anyway, he have derailed this thread too much now.

dsage, when will the next vote be up?

dont be so optimistic, remember back in 09 every anysis thought ps3 will outsell xbox in TOTAL sale??? but it didnt, since ps3 has outsold xbox, even if xbox gain some back in holiday season it just wont, remember 2010??????

I don't recall people thinking 360 could catch up in sales in 2010... It did make up a lot of ground, and 2011 is different. PS3 doesn't have that massive Slim Effect to ride on.

Anything can happen, People thought the PS3 was going to crash and burn at launch, and look at it now! People also thought PS3 would overtake 360 in total sales in 2008, and that 360 wouldn't get anywhere near 50 million sales, but look at it now!

For now, since the price cut could affect either console, or both, significantly, I'll stick with what the analysts say. 360 will likely have a stronger fall, and PS3/360 2011 sales will be on par. Keep your opinion, but if your honestly not joking around with me and pretending to be ignorant, you should look at more then yearly sales from January-December. Kinect was a game changer.
