Munkeh111 said: It is kind of irrelevant. By now, so many people have bought multiple consoles for various reasons and many have just stopped using their consoles all together
The real thing that matters is software sales and money made, which M$ wins by far
This gen can count as nothing but an M$ win given last gen |
Yep they played their cards nice. Also MS can drop price anytime and widen the gap. I suspect some are going to hold off on buying after the PS4 reveal. So I would suspect lower sales for ps3.
Not sure why the passing really matters. MS won everywhere they needed to win and for them to hold off Sony for this long was a achievement. They had RROD and went up against the highest selling console maker ever ( Besides DS). They essentially Split the market share and it is still in their favor. Gained massive third party support and got some more first party. I suspect next gen is going to be all about first party building and thats what we are going to see coming out of the gate from MS. They have been building up studio's for some time now.
So who really won over all? who gained the most this gen? 360 owns North america/UK and that is no easy feet. Now to build on that.
So Sony fans need any bit of good information they can get. Sometimes it's almost delusional.

Lol wow, just wow, to quote a word you used yourself, delusional.

Last gen XBox Sold 24 million consoles, PS2 sold 155 million. So who gained market share?????? Who gained the most third party support? Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, Resident Evil... Demon/Dark Souls in general, Star Ocean, Tales games, Castlevania both SOTN & LOS., Prince of Persia, Devil May Cry, Ace combat, Ridge Racer........
Units sold don't mean shit if you lost 5 billion dollars.
"Sony has lost ~5 billion dollars on the PS3. It is the worst financial disaster in gaming history, losing more money for its parent company than either the Dreamcast or original Xbox."
So I'm delusional. YOu only care about how many moved units, nothing else. Wow talk about hearing what you want to hear. not the business end. WTF do you think they are doing it for? YOU!!! Lolololol. It's for money.
For a company that moved 155 million units last gen. They should have passed MS in the first year however they still have not passed them and lost a whole bunch of market share and third party support.
Lets be clear. Your the one not looking at all the facts. I am.
