Seems like 360 outsold PS3 this week.



Gilgamesh on 15 December 2012

Thanks a bunch for the numbers 4k1x3r, it helped a lot!

6th week is up (December 8th), PS3 udjusted up X360 the same except for December 1st week, the yearly gap got bigger.



ethomaz on 15 December 2012

The real question now is... can the lifetime gap cross the 2 million barrier?

The weekly gap is 30k now... three more weeks but the last weeks I expect PS3 ahead... it will be close.



spaceguy on 22 December 2012

So the gap will be just over 2 mil.

Week 7 is up, no previous adjustments surprisingly enough, first time. Gap getting closer to 2 million, could be over it next week if Japan doesn't start pushing PS3 over X360 yet.

So the Gap should be back to what it was before holidays by about Mid March, pending any adjustments either way.

Back to 1.5 or 1.6m by Mid March 2013.


Xbox 360 should see a price break, not sure when but I would suspect around there to move as many 360 before 720 launches.

Odd, Ps3 adjusted up almost exactly 5k every week on here while 360 staying the same.This week PS3 somehow outsells X360. Next week shows X360 above PS3 by 40k.

LOL!! Someone throwing darts at a board full of numbers. Even the NPD numbers don't include EVERYTHING, so you can imagine how off the Europe numbers are. Don't think the PS3 will catch the 360 until after the Next Gen systems are out, so it won't matter much.

I don't know what you talking about because in March 2012 the Gap was over 2.5m... if PS3 managed to 1.5m in March 2013 then the Gap shrank 1 million in the last year.

I expect the Gap to be less than 1 million in March 2013.
