Sony outsold Microsoft almost every year (when you coun't year upon year sales from launches equally). Technically Sony is about eight million ahead in overall sales, they are just a year behind. If Sony had launched with Microsoft (hypothetically based on the stats)they would've been ahead by like what...nearly ten mil? LOL....Imagine this gen when they start off correctly and don't piss off consumers. :)

So, no more questions, a more expencive console can sell better even if it has sub-par mulplats games and a worst online service.

PS: that is the first time a read the "Technically " statement that PS3 is 8mi ahead. Well, to bed mathematics don´t works that way. The PS3 in the bast case scenario could end up leading for 4 or 5 milions, three yars from now. May be China could outbalance it.

Yes it does, math helps everything and its why we can see such changes. Subtract a year from Microsofts sales and you have the real number of what they would've had year for year. Try it out. :)

P.S.

Yes...a $599 console with a Blu Ray player did that. Kinect will not have the same effect. Some people bought the PS3 just for the Blu Ray player and ended up falling into gaming.
