It may eventually catch up to the 360 due to the fact that the 360 is so unpopular in Japan and Europe and as Blue-ray gets more popular that should help it out to but I don't think it will ever catch the 360 in the NA market.


And why not.

Sonys got the Shooters to challenge the 360 and not only that they got MGS and FF as exclusives and thos ewill drive hardware in us.

Then theres also a small game called Gran Turismo and God of War.

360 line up just wont be able to hold of such heave hitters in such diversy genres.

 


Yea they may be so but the 360 already got almost a 7 million lead on the ps3 and they got pretty decent lineup coming this year maybe not as good as the ps3 but still a good lineup that should move a lot of consoles. I guess it all depends on how well GTAIV does for them. If they do a 75 to 100 dollar price cut 2 to 3 weeks before they release GTAIV and start outselling the PS3 2 or 3 to 1 for a two or three month period the PS3 will be so far behind I don't think they'll ever catch them. Also I don't think sony could afford to do another 100 dollar price cut so soon. They just don't have the kind of money that microsoft has.

lol ok.

PS2 did 45 million in US, xbox 16 so 7 million is nothing especially when you struggle to out sale a competitior that is MORE expensive and NON if its best games are out yet.

- Sony can cut price if they need to, they have cuts costs to the point their gaming division posted profits.

- 360s line up is NOTHING compared to PS3s, and decent will just not cut it. 360 has already milled the shotter fans to death, they lack great games of other genres to move hardware. They lack a diverse game line up to compete with the PS3.

And bud look at Burnout or DMC sales, GTA 360 aint out selling anything by 3-1 especially with GT5p coming out in Europe before GTA. Then 1.5 months later MGS4 hitting World Wide.

 

360 is screwed, MS had a chance but they failed to capitalize.
