| ChartsViewer said: Hello again guys! This week we can feel the Metal Gear Solid effect!!!! (Reminds me of Fear Effect! Great game by the way!) PS3 - 320,414 360 - 130,483 It's +- 200.000 more consoles! So my prediction is looking good! In last weeks PS3 didn't manage to keep up with the 50.000 more, but this week it gots 150.000 more, so it covers other weeks! Everything is loonking good :) See you all soon! :) |
You do realize that this thread is rather flawed, right? You're completely ignoring holiday sales, and MGS for sure won't be the only major title for either system.
During the holidays, sales for each console will go up exponentially. Let's say the ps3 outsells the 360 by ~30% every week, equating to a ~40k gap between the two over the Spring/Summer. During the holidays, sales go up to 500-600k a week per console, so that 30% gap grows from 50k to 200k. If current trends continue, we could see the 360 selling ~500k a week this December and the ps3 selling ~700k a week.
And then you have to consider FFXIII and GT5, games that should boost the ps3's sales 1.5-2x as much as MGS4 did (though GT5's boost may have been somewhat lessened in Europe due to the release of GT5P).
