Its always been dominate in the Japan sales and is over 3 times the sales of the 360 in Japan. In America their all 360 mad but dont really hate the PS3 and usually the PS3 sales in Japan even out with the 360 sales in America so their about the same but the biggest sales have been from Europe and thats were the PS3 beats the 360 and although the 360's winning in the UK (where i live The overall PS3 sales is well over half the sales of the 360 and seeing as it came out a year later thats very good plus with more PS3 exclusive games coming out,blu-ray programming becoming easier and games becoming too big for DVD's its looking good for 2008 especially wth home and dualshock 3 coming in spring and although theirs been alot of doubts about the cell processor it seems to be working great but im not so sure about the tri-core xenon which has 3 processors were the cell has 7 (one is reserved by the OS) I dont see how the 360 can possibly come out on top sure theres still all the naive people who wont give the PS3 a a chance i myself have tried a 360, so uo yours (you actually had me thinking you were unbiased until this statement), the menu wasnt as simple as the XMB in my opinion and the heat coming from it! Even when playing a game for hours the PS3 will be extremely cooler than the 360 when its doing something like playing music. The reason the PS3 was criticized was because it cost a lot more than the 360 and even now the 40GB has come out Sony are still losing money on every PS3 sold wereas Microsoft earn around $200 on every console(Honestly, what the hell are you talking about? They are just teetering on the edge of profitability, likely making A FEW dollars on the Arcade and Pro, and losing lots on the Elite. Even NINTENDO is not making $200 on Wii, and hardware-wise it uses 5-year-old technology!) mainly because their not interested in the consumer like the disk tray what the hell even the Wii has one of those sucky disc thingys! So? Does it hinder the console that it uses a regular DVD drive? The sucking drives are cool, but what is your point? Also, the PS3 online system is free and maybe better than xbox live and as for those people who say the 360's better because its got halo 3 like all games eventually it will become old (2 things: no one says that anymore--they say it's better because it has Halo 3, Mass Effect, Gears of War, Crackdown, Dead Rising, Crackdown, Lost Oddyssey, Blue Dragon, Forza 2, PGR3, and many others. Also: do PS3 games have some magic spell put on them so they don't get old?) . One thing that i am disappointed with is that games like Assassins Creed were going to be PS3 exclusives and then they went with the 360. I guess we'll just have to wait and see who comes out on top. |
I am not trying to bash the PS3 or necessarily say that 360 is better (though I personally prefer it). I have both, and both are good systems. What I'm taking issue with is how you construct your 'argument'. You ask a fair enough (though well-worn) question: Who will win, 360 or PS3. For the most part you completely pull facts out of your ass. MS is making $200 on the 360??? If that were true, they would have lowered the price to $200, making them even cheaper than the Wii, let alone the PS3, and started handing Sony their asses. So: fail.
Feel free to defend the PS3 using actual facts (there are many you could use, like how its' lineup will actualy be able to compete with the 360's this year, or how it's being competitive at a higher price.
