Okay, so since you insist on sucking at debate, here is some math to back up my claim:
The Xbox 360 was released in November 2005, whereas the PS3 was released in November 2006. that means the Xbox 360 has been around for 81 months if you round up. the PS3 has been on the market for 69 months if you round up.
81 months for the 360
69 months for the PS3
The Xbox 360 has sold, according to the numbers we have here, 67.55 million units. the PS3 has sold, according to the numbers we have here, 65.63 million units.
67.55 million for the 360
56.63 million for the PS3
Okay, so divide the amount sold by the number of months on the market, and we get:
360: 67.55 million / 81 months = 0.834 million units sold per month on average
PS3: 65.63 million / 69 months = 0.951 million units sold per month on average
THat means (theoretically) that if the systems were released at the same time with the same sales patterns and buying rates, the PS3 would regularly outsell the 360. the only reason the 360 is ahead of the PS3 is becuase it had a year's head start. For comparison's sake:
If the PS3 had sold at its rate but the 360's lifetime:
0.951/month x 81 months = 77.031 million sold
If the 360 had sold at its rate but the PS3's lifetime:
0.834/month x 69 = 57.456 million to date
Isn't math fun? and that's not even factoring in how many people bought multiple Xbox 360's becuase of the Red Ring of Death happening after warranty or before they knew they could get a replacement. I'd say (and this is pure estimate since nobody has these numbers), at least 5 million 360's compared to what I figure is probably over 1 million for the Yellow Light of Death on PS3's. That's taking console failure rates into account.
so yeah, isn't math awesome? I'm not twisting any numbers here, check them out, do the math yourself. all the data is right there.
