Sony won't give us real numbers, will be some "Playstation ecosystem" BS or they'll lump PS1/PS2/PS3 together.

PS3 will likely overtake Wii in life time sales anyway


You can't possibly be serious... can you?

PS360 are NEVER breaking 95m while Wii already over that.

2012 they are both hitting 70m. 2013 they may get to 80m each... maybe as the rest of nextGen launches. By 2015 they'll die ~90m. That's 10yrs for 360 and 9 for PS3... it may live to year 10 just for the sake of being around, but that will only be a couple million at best.

Don't mind that,in last year you would thought PS3 outsold 360 more than 50% in BF according to internet

The gap between Wii and X360 on the US market is getting very small =p.

3.25m after this week. Will overtake it next holiday at the latest I'm sure. I wonder if it will be a victory worth celebrating though?


Being first in the biggest market means nothing?

I'm asking you. I didn't give my answer. Now that I think you've answered with a yes, it will be curious to watch how you react in the future when a certain event happens. Won't name it so I won't get this thread off track, but know I am watching your every move from now on

Like what?

I dunno, those 4 game PS3 bundles for $200 sold out everywhere I looked. I am just Sony sold pretty well as well.

Just shows that people do love the Xbox platform and all the exclusives and third party games it brings, people may say these are the only months that count for MS but that's nonsense, remove the other 10 months and they'd lose A: Massive profit and B: Half their sales.

So the 360 "raped" the WiiU at launch.  I knew that would happen XD.  Hopefully the PS3 will also have great numbers XD.


Because they sold the amount they shipped.....

PS3 probably sold 550-650K, sony's black friday bundles sold out immediately

Um...no they didn't.  Maybe online, but not in stores.

The only one I found sold out was the Wii U.

Really impressive and well deserved in my opinion. I don't own a 360, but I might when I get a steady job. Kinect looks too fun to ignore.

Even that didnt truly sell out. As of yesterday 3 of the best buys in my area still have some. Kotaku peopl were reporting that none of the stores in their area sold out and they live in NYC.
