Yup, the PS3 always get killed in North America. Even when Sony admits the competition sells more some fans insist that it did not.

It's great to read with fresh Kettle Corn Pop Corn and sit back and watch. It's like sharks with freakin' lasers shooting each other.

Plus, Microsoft wants to sell another 20+ million Xbox 360s.

 


Last year:

PS3 12,734,949 (-13%) 73,830,282
X360 11,097,669 (-20%) 74,867,113

PS3 1.7m ahead.

2011:

PS3 14,706,691 (+6%) 61,095,333
X360 13,808,365 (+4%) 63,769,444

PS3 900k ahead

2010:

PS3 13,896,438 (+7%) 46,388,642
X360 13,253,914 (+32%) 49,961,079

PS3 600k ahead

2009:

PS3 12,997,974 (+27%) 32,376,827
X360 10,160,518 (-7%) 36,932,992

PS3 2.8m ahead

 

The only full year PS3 hasn't been ahead was 2008. I hope you enjoy that popcorn, because you're not going to get to enjoy 360 catching PS3 . It won't even be close this year.


Someone with some sense.....man some people are in really bad denile here, ps3 sells more most years, there is NO WAY the 360 will get  anywhere near the ps3....again 

Gta5, gt6 beyond two souls.... bye bye 360 



Around the Network

They could, but in Europe the PS3 will have an edge toward the holiday season.



I respect VGChartz numbers but I would just like for Sony to put up real numbers so we can know where we really stand.Is PS3 ahead or not,it's a major question and nobody really knows the answer.

What!?! nearly 80 million consoles are just going to disappear?  What evil deal has the SP made to rip joy from so many happy good people in the world?  (Satan? Rick Warren? Nicholas Cage?!?)  That's just mean, more people playing games on the Xbox 360 that any other console.  Why would they all just disappear for a system that can barely run Skyrim?

The 40 million people on live.  I hope the world's internet doesn't crash.

(Sets up laser guarding guppies to keep my Xbox 360 safe.  Go guppies I am counting on you.)



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Short answer Nope

Long answer Ps3 is just selling to much more than it every week to catch it now



Around the Network

no



How far ahead is PS3? I know we can't tell officially since Sony was butt hurt by Vita numbers.

Either way I say no, though the gen is over anyway so who cares. Will they continue making tons of money on 360? Yes. That is what matters.



For the purpose of this thread, what matters is "Can Xbox 360 catch back up to Ps3 this holiday season?"

The answer is no, unless MS produces more stock than it can sell and then gives all the excess away.



I don't care anymore since the XB1 and PS4 are out soon. Sony won this gen by the skin of their teeth. That battle is over, and the new game of thrones starts in November, if you catch my drift.



It's just that simple.

Of course it will. It's just a matter of time. Not even GTA V bundle can save Ps3.
