Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Can Xbox 360 catch back up to Ps3 this holiday season?

Stinky on 06 September 2013

With Titanfall creating such a massive buzz and looking to be a contender for taking CoD's crown, and 360 being the cheapest way to play it, I wouldn't be surprised if it did have a resurgence.

nah , xbox 360 will continue with the last place , the console that in this gen sold less.



Yes but took half the ps2 base.


?? This makes zero sense......What happens 1 geneation doesn't flow to the next...Ask the gamecube or N64........What will your excuse be when ps4 has a much edge on x1? Will yuo then say PS4 took some of its base? Every generation is different. Only reason ti even was as close was more to do with Sony being late, expensive, and just doing everything wrong. MS doesn't have that advantage going forward.

 

Each generation also gets bigger, so it has little to do with taking anyones base.



REALLY?

I thought this holiday sales for 360 was myth because if you look past data the difference is not that big and Sony in most time won over the last quarter of the year.

Actually 360 won most of the time, but usually not by a huge margin. Except for the year of Kinect and the year after, it's really been even with PS3/360.

However if this weren't the case and 360 did consistantly outpace PS3 over the holidays, my question would be: With what exclusive games to boost sales?

PS3 will sell better this fall, MS abandoned the 360 and people know it. Plus PS3 has Beyond: 2 Souls, Gran Turismo 6, and The Last of Us is still fresh.

That Game will hardly  be a system seller, seeing as it's a multiplatform game, and it's a timed console exclusive

thats why my comment was dripping with sarcasm

360 is dead in the water, if anyone genuinely thinks microsoft will support it more than 6 months after xbox one hits retail theyre in for a shock, only sony is known to back a console after a new one replaces it, as shown with the ps1, ps2, psp, and soon the ps3.

everyone else lets their consoles die the second they have something new on the market. (or 6 months to a year prior in some nintendo cases)

What does that matter outside of fan arguments? Looking at the PS3 chart I posit that CoD and Fifa are significantly responsible for more PS3 consoles sold than any exclusive, aside from GT5 maybe.

so when is this happening again? It's very obvious this won't happen at any point.
