Forums - Sales Discussion - Xbox 360 Vs. Playstation 3 2012 - *February* Update

I'm sure the mods are going to have a hard time in the following days-weeks, we are going to have some meltdowns.I just hope people keep it civil.

I must say pezus and thismential, you both seem very defensive over Sony being ahead as of now, like you don't want anyone to have an opinion other than 'fuck yeah SONY'

Lol, seems more like you and a few others don't like the fact that the PS3 came out on top.  So you have to come up with hypotheticals or talk about statistical ties.  I think you guys are going to like it even less if there are adjustments.


How do you like your crow?

What are you celebrating exactly here?

You would rather believe Microsoft than an independent observer such as VGChartz or this thread, where PS3 is still on top? Microsoft is probably playing on the fact that there's a virtual tie to avoid presenting apologies : they didn't indicate, even roughly, by how many units they won.

PS3 is the winner.

Stop being stupid

All three companies know exactly how much they and their competitors sell. Nintendo is the only one that publicly shares its information though.

I mean do you honestly think that vgchartz has better data than the freaking company that sells its own product, are you really that asinine?

360 is a JUGGERNAUT............... the sales gap between the origional xbox and the 360 is now staggering...!!!!!!




I missed a couple of pages but I would like to point out that, of the comments I've seen, when it was reported that the PS3 won 2011, Microsoft fans said that Microsoft did a good job anyway and congratulated Sony on a well deserved win. Now we are getting reports that Sony may not have won 2011. I would hope that, if this is true, Sony fans show the same level of respect.

Yeah, with the new data that came out in the past 24 hours; (ps3 overtracked by .7m and 360 undertracked by at least .6m) the last 6-7 pages are HI-LARIOUS.

really that much ?
I haven't followed Sony's numbers.



Love it, when PS3 was ahead by a marginal amount (Around 200-300k) it was unacceptable to use the term "statistical tie", because PS3 has won the year instead, regardless of how small the gap was. Now the chance that 360 is ahead, we'll no doubt hear the cries of statistical tie.

I'd say it depends on how much 500k+ and it's a victory rather than a tie.



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

@Seece any chance of those good old posts where you go back in the thread and revive the dumbest comments and post them in one post? I think for this thread it'll be hilarious.

Also good job making one of the most volatile threads on VGC - with the title like that.. Oosh. Even I thought you were friggin' nuts when you made it.



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

It will be better to wait for all the official numbers, and how VGC adjusts its sold to end users numbers before daring to make definitive comments...

Can someone let me know how many PS3 needs to be shipped between Oct ~ Dec to keep the lead ahead of 360?
