Forums - Sales - Will the PS3 pass XBOX 360 sales in 08?

itend said:
Nope. The 360 will take off with GTA IV in EU and the difference between the 2 will increase in the US even more. MGS will sell as much as it did last time while Killzone 2 turns out to be as good a game as the 1st one.

Then FF and GT is delayed yet again, while MS releases Ninja Gaiden 2, Fable 2 and the biggie Gears of war 2 for 2008 holidays and with that cross the 30 million mark while PS3 fanoys are heard shouting "Wait til FF and GT comes out"

this is your prediction right? you posted it like you've just seen into the future lol. and you've basically posted that everything about the ps3 will fail and everything about the 360 will prosper.

 how do you know 360 will take of in eu with gtaiv? so far all the latest multiplatform games have done better on ps3, bar cod 4 in the pal region. fifa, pro evo, assasins creed, need for speed....you catch my drift? somehow, i dont think gtaiv is going to be any different.

i agree that 360 will increase above ps3 in america with gtaiv but nowhere else in my opinion. everything else about your post is pure flame talk.

Its basically a retort to everyone else predicting the future. If i am wrong then everyone else is wrong as well. The topic itself is a trollbait.

 

"i agree that 360 will increase above ps3 in america with gtaiv but nowhere else in my opinion."

So when did u get off the timemachine. 



The PS3 hasn't made up ANY of the lead that the 360 has - so its a little early to be talking about the PS3 overtaking the 360 in '08.

The chance of the 360 extending its lead next year is about the same as the PS3 shrinking this lead. It could go either way - but their won't be any overtaking next year, the lineup just isn't there.

im pretty sure i added "in my opinion" to that sentence. hmm, let me check.....oh yes, why there it is! now, show me where you stated that you previous post was an opinion of some sort.........you werent "predicting" what will happen, as you stated. you made it seem that what you typed was definately going to happen. then you made some silly remarks. that post was written to flame and you know it.

now im not trying to start no flaming myself, but if you write a post like that, you know that's just what you "want" to happen, rather than what you "think" will happen.




only thing that seems sure is that the ps3 will overtake the 360 in the others region in 2008, and probably by summer

How could it ever outsell the Xbox 360? Its video game library is nothing compared to the Xbox 360's. Yeah, it has Resistance, Ratchet, Uncharted, and many other, fine games, but almost nothing like the Xbox 360's, mainly because the Xbox 360 was released one year before the Playstation 3.

That may happen, but don't take Christmas 360/PS3 ratios for granted, they'll probably change a lot in January.

It's PS3's first Christmas in Europe, which will obviously lead to lots of kids getting it as a present. In January, people buy consoles mainly for themselves, which leads to quite different target demographics to sell consoles to.

Another important factor are the surely upcoming price cuts for the Xbox 360, look at the impact that Sony's 200 € price cut has had! Microsoft has only cut 50 € off their price so far, and they launched their console much earlier than Sony did.

eh... it's actually already outselling the 360 ww or selling just as much with a higher price and less games.. so.. maybe you can take a look at the chartz on the homepage while you're on vgchartz anyway..

yes i know nj5, ps3 won't keep outselling the 360 with 100.000 units the coming weeks in europe anymore
but even if they keep outselling the 360 with 50k's every week than they'll still overtake the 360 in august

and it's the ps3 that's getting the bigger release coming half year
