@Avinash

well over the christmas period, the PS3 has outsold the 360...

For the full year I think its about even, then take into account the PS3 wasn't released in Europe until March 23rd.

@avinash

cool dude, lets just do something.

PS3> X360- 1st year
PS3 ? X360- 2nd year

The real question is if the ps3 will do better than the xbox 360 did in 2007.

 I don't think that should matter since its not supply constrained

 

ah found it:

Console Wii PS3 X360

Total 16,243,741 7,629,016 8,063,721

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)

for the whole year:

PS3: 7,629,016

360: 8,063,721

So a statistical tie.

 Not really, as its a little more than 5% difference between the two, in fact the difference between the two is about the same as the difference between the PS3 and 360 holiday sales percentage wise

you can't ignore the fact that the PS3 didn't release until the 23rd of March. It does make a difference.



I wonder how many times Avinash_Tyagi has typed the words "supply constraint" or "supply constrained".



As in go buy us some coffee.

You mean in Europe, right? To tell the truth I think that helped the PS3 in terms of 2007-only sales, the EU launch was pretty huge and compensates for the 2.5 missing months of sales IMO.

 As many times as needed

If there weren't PS3's on the shelf I might say yes, but there are meaning even though people could have bought it they didn't , which means the extra few weeks wouldn't have made a difference

 I can sort of understand what you are saying.

But won't you admit that the PS3 would have seen gains that the xbox did see if it had released earlier in Europe?
