So PS3 only "officially" over took X360 on 31 May 2014

according to official shipments, PS3 surpassed Xbox 360 back in December 2012. Factor in how padded the 360s numbers are due to multiple purchases via RROD, and the PS3 surpassed it way before that. Not "officially", because only shipments and sold-through numbers matter to investors, but unofficially in the sense that more people own PS3s worldwide than 360s

So you have no facts to back this outlandish statement? Here is a fact,  MS doesn't count RROD units.

What in the shit are you talking about? No facts? PS3 surpassed 360 in worldwide shipments back in December 2012. And if I buy a 360 right now, that counts as a sale. If it RRODs or fails otherwise, and I go out and buy another unit....MS won't count it as another sale? How will they differentiate between buying one for replacing a bricked Xbox or if I'm buying one as a completely new customer. Would I have to fill out some survey that says "I'm buying a new console because my old one broke"?

Sir, pass me the drugs. I want whatever you're smoking.
