You know this site is ran by Sony fans when they choose "Not even close", to them i say

"Who has a 5 million lead? Aww to soon??" then i LOL

well to be fair the question is Sony Vs MS and NOT PS3 vs X360.Sony had almost 40% of revenue in gaming last week whereas MS had only 13 %.

 

to you I say 

"who has 3 platforms on the market???" :P

True, but the brand power is what the OP was talking about.

Xbox and GFWL vs PS3 and ?? (PSP is just about to die and so is the PS2)

 

Xbox brand is equal with the Playstation brand.

 

PS2 alone doubled the sales of Xbox and Xbox 360 together


and that is history my friend. welcome to 2010.

And it has been out 10 years plus the Xbox and Gamecube sucked.

You think a PS2 is still selling like hot cakes now? No, Wii and 360 are owned it.

So? Its still a fact that proves that proves that PlayStation brand is 5X stronger. How many Xbox consoles sold over 100 millon? Or even 50 million? Hell, not even a Nintendo console sold over 100 million (notice i said console, not handheld)

In 2010 PS3 sold 2.38 million(with shortages) compared to 1.7m for 360

Its funny how everyone is comparing Xbox 360 and PS3 when OP obviously mentioned MS(Xbox brand as whole) and Sony(PlayStation brand as whole). Also, its good to know that the gap between PS3 and 360 is 5.7 million only because of 1 year headstart. If they both got launched at the same, PS3 would top Xbox 360 already

Apple 2 used to be the greatest computer. Your point? The past just doesn't matter.

PS3 is getting raped by the Xbox 360 in the US. That happens today.

PS3 lost soooooo much market share in Europe this generation while the Xbox 360 will double the sales of the original Xbox next month.

The Xbox brand saw a massive growth this gen, the Playstation brand decreased big time.

What is World Wide?

You're joking right. Ya know, everywhere... all around the world, where the US accounts for 35-40% of the gaming market and the rest of the world the remaining 60-65%.
