The PS3 / 360 gap is now less than 2 million. Is it inevitable PS3 passes 360 in 2013?

It won't matter because once it does pass the 360 people will automatically go in defense mode and say how it took them 6 years to do it and the PS2 sold 150m blah blah blah. Yes, I can predict the future.

Weve been saying this for years.

Yes this is true but it will be much more relevant when it actually happens, don't you think?

Weve also been saying for years due to gen over gen comparisons, 360 wins regardless. Also how since all 3 next gen consoles are due out soon, you have a pretty short window to celebrate victory because im 100% positive the Nintendo and MS fans will have moved on to WiiU and next Xbox getting a head start on PS4 ;)

Only the PS3 camp will care, and itll fall on deaf ears.

You'll care, you'll just pretend that you won't.  Otherwise you wouldn't put so much effort into posts arguing that it's irrelevant.

At least you guys seem to now agree that this is inevitable.

I always saw this coming. I just think that 360 will hold out until its successor. Thats mission acclomplished to MS, and to me anyway.

I put effort because I don't like smug 3rd place fans acting like its the PS2 days.But when the next Xbox comes out, I literally have something new and current to take my attention away from what is happening now.

Plus, int he grand scheme, 360 was beating PS3 from 2005-2013. Thats 9 calender years. I guess you guys are due to celebrate a couple for yourselves lol

Here's the thing - the argument all along from PS3 fans was that because the PS3 is a powerful console, it would have legs and sell longer than the other consoles.  People said that wouldn't be true.  We're seeing now that it is true.  That has merit in itself.

Sony positioned this console as a future proof console that would sell more than the competition in later years.  I think it's fine for Sony to celebrate that future-proofing paying off.

Its ironic but any profit PS3 is making now will never offset the 4 billion PS3 lost from 2006-2009.
