I think after seeing the disappointing sales in HW this week for PS3 he had to reassure himself that PS3 would still beat 360 by posting a thread about how PS3 will win. Pretty lame but expected by the tons of desperate PS3 fans looking for some good news after (Haze, Disappointing HW sales, and 360's continued strength in Others).

Damn, if PS3 weekly HW sales are dissapointing, then what does that make the 360?

OnTopic: This thread is pointless.


360 sales are only 4k less, after japan it will be 10k. That is not a big difference. At this rate it will take 10 years for the PS3 to catch the 360.


Sales are down this week but both of us know this rate will not hold. I'm going to guess that you'll see one more week of crappy sales in the anticipation of MGS4 then... do I really have to say?

Expect 400,000 in HW sales week one. Until then the Xbox may have a chance to outsell the PS3.


*whistles*

GTA IV moved 319k a little over a month ago. Now you expect a game that attracts an overlapping audience and doesn't carry nearly as large a fanbase to do even better?

...

Nah, I don't see it. 


We will find out in 2 weeks so this is pointless, but there are two factors that make me say this:

1. MGS4 is bundled with the 80gb PS3 making a reappearance. 

2. It's a PS3 exclusive while the HW sales for new HD console adapters were split between the PS3 and 360. In all you were looking at a combined  520,000 consoles or so as a result of GTA4.
