PS3 wins last week of the year :D

So this is the 3rd year in a row the PS3 has beat the Xbox 360 in worldwide sales. Can it do it again 2012?

That's what the next thread title will say! Also it's funny you say that, our sales indicate the 360 has outshipped PS3 this Q, meaning that since end of September 2010 the gap may have only closed (shipment wise)


outsold not outshipped. You know very well Sony always ship as much as they want.

No, I mean't outshipped ...

Like I said, what out sales indicate. We can kinda guess Sony shipments from their FY forecast

Well, I tought so too last year, but somehow they end shipping the same amount. I will wait to see, and from history, Sony ships a lot in Q4

Mmhmm, wouldn't suprise me, they can both be unpredictable (usually sony better for and MS worse off)

Dec NPD will be most telling, seeing what growth they've seen there, seen as Japan was flat for PS3. Europe I have no clue one.

I'm surprised MS did not say a thing about how great their Christmas was in America while Nintendo did. I expect 2.5 million up to 3 million in the US for the 360. As far as Europe, I know the UK is 360 and Wii, but the PS3 should do very well everywhere else, they need it.

MS won't say anything now when they have CES as a platform on Monday.

And the PS3 takes care of business once again!.. 360 is following the steps of the WII 2 years ago. Selling Great numbers around the holiday but falling behind the competition the rest of the year. The PS3 is lot more consistent. Great Number for all consoles regardless.

It turned out to be one hell of a battle, huh? When the thread started, I thought the 360 would sneak out a win but then the truth settled in. When I saw the Black Friday numbers, I was rooting for the 360 again! It didn't pull it off but it gave the PS3 quite a run. Congrats, Sony! You earned it!!

On to 2012!!

I have to admit I was watching the numbers, and i was really interested to see which system was going to win. I was rooting for the PS3 and I am happy it won.

Sales dont matter the 360 is a cheap system with a small gaming library, many many people buy multiple Xbox 3fixmes because they break down which means they have to buy another one of course when you have to buy things multiple times the sales numbers are higher. PS3 has more active units.
