Sold more.
Made more money.
Sold more software.
Increase in sales and marketshare over last generation.


Sold more? Not when you compare it to a week by week basis. Ignoring the year lead is arbitrary.

Made more money? Really? How much did fixing the RROD cost exactly? Considering it's failure rate was around the region of ~50%, that would cost a shit load. We need to see net profit. 

Since when was software sold indicitive of how the console sold? Arbitrary rule.

Yes the increase in sales and marketshare is indeed positive for the 360, but hardly negative for the PS3...That's like saying because Bolt won the 100m sprint that's a victory for him and a loss for everyone else...

It did sell more though. Pretending they launched at the same time is liek creating an alternate universe where SOny didnt poorly mismanage their business. It happened, they lainched late, and the sales will reflect that.

RROD costed over a vbillion, but PS3 lost a FEW BILLION by "just existing" in its first few years. PS3 factually lost more money and profited much later then 360 started to.

Software sold just means thats where the gamers are going. Cant say PS3 is more successful if the gaemrs buy 90 million more games on another console.....

Compared to PS2....it is nothing but negative for PS3. I cant see how youd spin it positive when talking gen over gen.
