The 360 launched on November 22, 2005 and that is when it started selling its first piece of software.  The PS3 launched on November 11, 2006 and that is when it started selling its first piece of sofware.  All the other stuff you posted is irelevent the plain fact is that 360 and PS3 launched eleven month and nineteen days apart and that is the real gap between the sofware sales of both consoles and those are the plain facts.


When you are comparing software performance availability of the hardware to play it in your local region is HIGHLY relevant, stop trying to sidestep being wrong by being wrong again.

 

I strongly suggest you read over my post regarding sales performance over time and launch time differences impacting software sales performance for multiplatform titles on different install bases and exclusives to different install bases.

Because you seem to be one of those people that think that comparing sales for software on a 1 day old console available in a single country, to that of a nearly year old console with an actual install base and global availability is logical, when it is clearly not.

While I own all the major consoles for the first 5 years of its life the 360 was my go-to console, that said even I have the brain capacity to o understand market performance based on availability.

You can of course continue to argue that comparing sales performance for consoles launched so far apart makes sense, but you will, of course, be entirely wrong.

One must observe the market climate and not just the immediate figures when debating these things, something you seem to refuse to want to do despite telling others to 'research' things.
