17 million in a year? I highly doubt that.


did 15 million this last year.  with another price-cut it is not just possible but probable.

Last year he means 1st Apr 2010 to 31th Mar 2011... shipped figure.

PS3 needs to ship 2.8 million in Q4 for that... by VGC it sold 2,709,164 without the last week of month (until 26th Mar 2011).

So it almost certain PS3 match their prediction.

Is he talking about UK sales or WW sales ?


He was actually talking about active units. PS3 has 43.4 million whereas 360 has 42.9 million.

Meaning that worldwide PS3 is being played more but in total sales 360 has 52.8 million and PS3 has 49.1 million

Which, ofcourse everyone knows, is total bullshit.


Lmao sure... I don't see why its so impossible to believe that PS3 has more active units, considering RROD and console bans which is rare for PS3 because its not as heavily moderated. I think its definitely possible for there to be more active PS3s than 360s.

So there are 52.8 million 360's sold,  and they say 42.9 are active right? That means that 9.9 million either succumed to RROD, were banned, or are even just collecting dust. Maybe its just me but that doesn't seem too unusual. Same goes for PS3, 49.1 million sold and 43.4 active. Meaning 5.7 million succumed to YLOD, were banned, or are collecting dust.

Those numbers seem pretty fair to me.

The figure seems very one sided twords the 360. RRoD? Maybe... but you can't forget all the ps3s sitting on store shelves whose figures range in the billions

You didn't get the memo? Sony has been stuffing the channels for over a year now.

In the short term (next 12 to 18 months), the PS3 may continue to see sales improvements ...

Depending on what happens in the mid term, it is entirely possible that the PS3 could be facing competition from a more inovative and powerful system that is selling for a price consumers find reasonable; and that could rapidly kill any momentium the PS3 has.
