decent month. next month should be interesting. ps3 should do better with a full month at $250 and no more 360 giveaways with pc's.

Not really, Gears of War 3 will kill it.


gears or no gears, ps3 is gonna have a full month of new price. if it doesnt do better than this month something is wrong. also imo, gears impact wont be near as big as this pc deal going on with the 360.  when gears 2 released, 360 only jumped by 20k and it was november at the time. gears is a monster software seller but not really a BIG hardware seller like some like to make out

Sony has nothing besides Uncharted 3 to push sales in Americas this holidays... Uncharted 3 will be awesome but you cant compare it to Gears of War 3 or Halo Anniversary... Or even Mw3.

Gears of War 3 will push thousands of Xbox 360s, Modern Warfare 3 will push Milions...Than you have Forza MotorSport 4 wich will be HUGE in Europe essentially in U.K and Halo Anniversary wich should push some Xboxs in November...

If they Price Cut they will have a 2M November and >2.5M December for sure.

Lol, don't exaggerate. And MW3 is coming to PS3 too.

But of course X360 will outsell PS3 in America, even without a pricecut.

November NPD 2010 : 1.37M Xbox 360.

Black Ops : 5M for 360. im Sure it pushed at least 600K.

600,000 is not millions.

And I'm sure it would've sold over 1m without MW.

And again, MW is coming to PS3.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

better than expected for the PS3,just overtracked on the 3DS by the looks of it

Doesnt really matter... Playing Mw on Ps3 is like comparing a Cat to a Dog... Plus the game is advertised in US like a 360 Exclusive, even on Europe. i dont even know why so many people like to play FPS on Ps3, the online is so outdated and the controller is horrible... i guess mostly are casual gamers that dont give a shit lol. Also Mw3 Xbox special edition is Xbox Only. That will move as many as they can do.



Anyway, in short:

X360: undertracked by 44k
PS3: undertracked by 22k
Wii: undertracked by 9k
3DS: overtracked by 33k-
NDS: overtracked by 19k-
PSP: no one cares anymore

Considering neither VGC nor NPD can have spot on numbers they're pretty close.

whoa ps3 down form 230ish from last aug.

sony better get out the pen and pad and head back to the lab

console preference among the current HDs for this gen are likely to carry over to next gen, the MS dominance we see in US and UK could start spreading to more regions next gen and even get more MS dominated in US and UK

if i were sony i would start rolling out with some bundles for US i dont really recall sony doing many in that region something like two or one older good exclusive games for $249, similar to what MS has done in the past years during this time cause unless we see something different for sep. (there have been some excuses thrown out like supply, only half month of price drop ect.) a $249 160gb aint going to cut it

as for MS its a rap they will most certainly out sell the other two by quite some margin now that wii sales are lower than last year, the majority of consumers that bought a wii years past during the holidays will most likely move to MS, on top of that NPD hasnt even started recording walmart and such something that they said will come soon. you thought youd see high MS you aint seen nothing yet

Ask me about being an elitist jerk

Time for hype

Life to Date:

360 - 28,430,000
Wii - 36,080,000
PS3 - 17,520,000

PS2 - 360 Gap - 17.6M
Wii - 360 Gap - 7.65M

i wonder if 360 can beat Ps2 ?? Still 4 years or more in the market for 360 and stills going strong...

This year it should stay at 33-34M, awesome numbers!

Meanwhile, Psp is dead eveywhere except in Japan... I wonder what will happen to VITA, they wont survive only with the Japanese marke, if Vita fails in West, it will be as dead as Psp on both 3rd party and 1st party games.

I hope it does great though.
