Wow, so Sony managed to reduce the "headstart" of x360, which resulted in a diff of ~6.7 million sold, to 1.3 million in about 5 - 6 years. Impressive.


Wut, the gap was 9 million just before PS3 Slim released.


No it wasn't.  Never got above 8.  

But that wasn't his point, he was saying that at launch it was 5.4m it had as an head start.  So it has taken 7 years t get from 5.4 to 1.3.

Incredible really isn't it, given the power of playstation. 

Sure that's if you pretend that the PS3 wasn't released an extra half a year later in Europe (Sony's biggest selling region) and you also pretend the gap really is 1.3 million when in reality Vgchartz numbers need updating and the gap is much less.


Here he is... You were quiet around qtr release day this time.. Lol

As opposed to here you are....

Nope not quiet for the qtr, why would i be, the numbers were as expected yet Vgchartz has failed to update the numbers properly yet.

It was nice that you addressed the points i made in my post.....


I wouldn't say the gap is much less. It's still north of 1m that's for sure.  Did you ever post in the infamous "when will ps3 overtake 360" thread back in 2008? 

Well it's not 'for sure' that the gap is over 1 million, for that to be true the PS3 would need to have over 500,000 more consoles sat on store shelves compared to the 360 for that to be true.
