Forums - Sales Discussion - MCV: Xbox's FF13 to OUTSELL the PS3 Version (analysis by myvoucher.com)

Isn't it a month early for an April Fools joke?

bullshit



Well apparently XBox 360 consoles outsold PS3 consoles by 3:1 over the holidays.

If we assume they mean in the UK then 360:PS3 sales over the holidays in the UK were ~1.2:1 according to VGC. This means one of 3 things is true:

VGC is Waaaaay undertracked for 360 in the UK; or
VGC is Waaaaay overtracked for PS3 in the UK; or
MCVUK's search data bears no relation to actual sales, and is a very poor predictor of sales differences.

If they're making the suggestion that this is a predictor for worldwide sales and they claim 3:1 console sales in favour of 360 over the holidays, well one is lost for words.

Seems about right. The 360 has a bigger install base here and many of the PS2 owners from the previous gen bought a 360 instead of a PS3 because it was cheaper. There's a reason the 360 version is getting so much more press than the PS3 version.

 

Plus, the recent PSN error makes the XBox version seem much more reliable.

As usual, your posts are comedy.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

maybe USA only



Would be interesting if happened, but no one besides "wii HD 2010" Pachter should make messed up predictions.
