Its a combinations of reasons, but I beleive your reason above is part of it.. The PS3 outsells the 360 in most of the EMEAA areas.. but not by a staggering amount.. sometimes its very close.. rarely is it a crazy number like you get in America.. Look back 10 yrs ago.. The PS2 sold what percentage in the USA? If the PS3 was selling at that same percentage ..the PS3 would be number 1, not the WIi.. Im not sure if Sony can win the US back next gen.. the only reason PS3 is slowly catching 360 is mainly Japan's PS3 sales.. subtract Japan who is fiercly loyal to their companies and PS3 would be dead last.. What I always see happening though is the 360 does well like 3 months a year and almost always nullifies any progress the PS3 did the other parts of the year.. nearly every year the PS3 was supposed to have caught up and nearly every year this happens - PS3 slightly outsells Xbox 360 ( enough, but not huge outselling either ).. then a few months 360 sells above PS3 and nearly makes it the way it was before PS3 caught up.. Im waiting to see how Gear 3 increases console sales and the holidays in which 360 usually does better.. Also.. when one drops the price - the other does not far after.. It wont be long till 360 gets a price cut.. Does anyone think MS will sit on its hands long beefore a price cut? Well they wont wait long.. The PS3 sales are doing better this year , but fans need to take into account the 360 is having its best year( of two best selling years of its life ) so far.. so its sales aren't dropping off either.. and the Wii can't be beat or ever caught |
The difference between 360 and PS3 in EMEAA is about as much as in Japan. So yeah if we substract these the PS3 would be dead last. While your at it, might as well substract the US and the 360 will be deadlast. What kind of argument is this? lol
