Have you been correcting the older weeks as well? (since they were lowered for the PS3).

I can't believe I've missed this thread. It's a gem.

PS3 is doing almost as well as PS2 in 2001 !!11on3!!one!!1!!



Stever89 on 21 April 2008

I think he must be, because you can easily check it by looking at hardware charts. PS3 sales here, and PS2 sales here. They differ by 133k, so he's doing something right. Go Crazzy!



CrazzyMan on 21 April 2008

Well, i don`t have much time for these two weeks,
so i just took hardware table for ps3 first 15 weeks of 2008 and for ps2 first 15 weeks of 2001, then compared.
Later i will correct numbers by weeks. :)

Well anyway, till GTA4 release ps3 will be a little behind of ps2. But then situation, i believe, will change. =))

PS3 lacks a strong "japanese" appealing library. The Xbox 360 has more jRPG's. :/



PREDICTION:

60M PS3's by the end of it's Life Span (Anything between 5 to 10 years)

kingofwale on 05 May 2008

Japan's number jumped 50% last year, what big game was released during the Golden Week last year?



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.
