| Nevermore said: It probably will overtake the xbox, but even if it does by a margin, I would still consider the PS3 the looser of this gen (sales wise). Why? While selling a couple more console will give Sony a nice chunk of change in their pockets, it doesn't remotely cover the extra money MS made with software sales during all that time in which they had a bigger market share. This gen will be long over by the time Sony would have truly equalled MS. Anyway, that's just the money perspecting. I still prefer the Sony exclusives over the MS and Nintendo ones. |
The PS3 still continues to sell at a pace that matters for Sony. And consistency was kept up round the years since 2009's slim launch. Although sales-wise the true impact wasn't created with respect to MS software sales in US, I would still say Sony emerged from loosing this gen to ultimately winning it from behind by gradually improving the market share over the years.
