To be fair, both started with a PR disaster so basically its amazing for both.


Sony had just a bad of a PR disaster back then?, was it the "get a second job to buy the PS3" quote back then per chance that people seemingly decided to forget on purpose?.

Tbh I still see with the numbers that 360 did better, it's great for them after overcoming the RROD and Kinect itself.

Seems a bit odd that 360 can't single handedly win though, it's either got to be neck and neck 50/50 with Sony or Sony wins, the numbers are telling differently though.

Well, sony arrogance along with the initial launch price were supposed to be a recipe for disaster, add to that that the console launched 1 year later(1 year and half in Europe) and it still manage to sell over 80m console.  With that kind of mistakes it just unbelievable how it survived that I'm sure no other console would have been able to achieve that.  I'm sure that if ps3 was launched at the same price with 360, other story would have happened.  That been said, I also see that 360 did better overall but I also see that MS took advantage of Sony mistakes, something that they don't have this gen.
