I support the rules

It honestly depends on whether you look at profit vs hardware sales I guess.

But honestly this worries me. 3 of the 8th gen out, and 2 are floundering, one is selling decent but not really high.

We might be in for a bigger contraction that I thought.

Seems like finally PS3 outsold 360.

Last week lifetime diff: 77,221,659 - 77,183,123 = 38,536

This week diff: 130,349 - 90,010 = 40,339

PS3 1.8k over 360!!!!

You know, just days ago, I was bummed about the Ps3 catching up to 360. But after MS has completely gone anti-consumer with the Xbone, I say go Sony!

Jesus I didn't think I would see Wii U hitting such a low bottom, 30k for a new system seemed like a nightmare but this? Wow, really...

Not that the Vita is doing any better, but I already lost hope for the system week ago...

There is hoping that when PS4 will hit the shelves, gamers will pick it up.

Doom, doom all over the place. One bonus is champaigne for me today, congrats PS3, congrats Sony!!!



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
