Wow seeing how 360 hasn't got any form of price cut since 2009 (with the Elite dropping in $100 to replace the Pro), these are impressive numbers


I dont know why everyone says that, here in germany you can get a 250gb xbox 360 with forza 3, crysis 2 and halo: annivesarry for 250€ while the cheapest ps3 is 250 aswell, and the same is the case in the whole of europe.

And correct me if im wrong, but i thought there were deals like 100$ giftcard if you buy a 360 in the usa, i wouldnt say its the same price like in 2009, really..

 

BTW, it seems a bit weird to me that the ps3 didnt get a boost at all with skyrim, cod3 and mgs hd collection, but I personally dont believe the vgchartz numbers.

the ps3 is clearly undertracked in EMEAA, and it is strange that the gap between sonys reported number of sold software and vgchartz software numbers is MUCH bigger than the gaps from microsoft and nintendo software but its a free service i guess, so i wont complain anymore...

microsoft has never released total 360 software numbers so there goes that arguement. If you post things as facts make sure they are actually facts rather then random guesses that can easily be proven wrong. Anyway people need to realise that call of duty itself did not give the big boost to the 360 and thats why ps3 numbers didn't jump. 

This is what I think. Fable 3 sold 94k. That means the holiday 360 bundle sold around 84k. Kinect sold 100k that means the kinect bundles sold 80k. The mw3 bundle mainly sold to the huge cod fans that already have 360s and just wanted a custom one, not to new consumers. PS3 didn't get a cool looking console for call of duty so ps3 owners had no reason to buy another ps3 when mw3 came out.

And it seems like no one else noticed, but the gears 3 numbers really are terrible compared to other "big" games. Sales are down a lot this week. It looks like the game was indeed very frontloaded. Might not even sell 60k this week ww.

And why the hell do people keep complaing about EMEAA results in Americas sales thread. EMEAA has nothing to do with Americas. Wait one day till the EMEAA charts show up and then you can actually complain about them and not be completely off topic.

Yeah Gears 3 is really selling lower than I thought it would....and it seems to not be going up either.

It will still beat Gears and Gears 2 numbers, but not by that much it seems.
