Who will sell more in 2012?

wait, people actually think Microsoft is going to be bringing something to the table at E3? the only big announcement they've made for the platform in the last two years was Halo 4....and that'll be big, but it won't be a super mega seller.

I would go out on a limb and say that Battle Royale will push more consoles than Xbox 360...Battle Royale is new to the HD consoles, whereas all halo fans already have 360s.



My Console Library:

PS5, Switch, XSX

PS4, PS3, PS2, PS1, WiiU, Wii, GCN, N64 SNES, XBO, 360

3DS, DS, GBA, Vita, PSP, Android

Interesting. I wasn't expecting PS3 to be in the lead like this. I wonder how E3 announcements will change things. Price cuts? Market apathy after new console announcements? or just business as usual?


Why not? It was the same last year.

I think PS3 can maintain the lead again this year.
-Last year 360 had a Gears 3 bundle, this year it had Kinect Star Wars which didn't really boost it past PS3.
-Last year 360 had a MW3 bundle, this year it has Halo 4 bundle. The HW boost should be very similar.
-Last year the Kinect effect was still pretty strong, this year it's not.
-360 slim momentum was also present last year.

It is 2012 and the 360 has nothing refreshing, it has no momentum going for it like it did in 2011. It would take a price cut for it to have a chance to surpass the PS3 this year. Oh and we also got Wii U coming out. Who knows how that will affect PS360 holiday sales.


It would be a fair comparison of "momentum" if you include what Ps3 had last year and is not present this year as well. Not just the 360s. 

PS3 didn't really have any momentum like the 360 did. We all know how PS Move sold so mentioning that is irrelevant.

PS3 had a price cut last year. And it had a lot of exclusives that sold over 1mill units.
