Forums - Sales - So PS3 only "officially" over took X360 on 31 May 2014

This is a win for Sony after all their struggles.MS should have the highest selling console with everything benefitting them.Both Sony and Nintendo sold more consoles.Most of the 360 sales came from the people rebuying them due to RROD.I bet the actual install base is only.60-70 million.

YEah head start and RROD, ps3 has been ahead for awhile....so who cares.

4.1m for fiscal quater3

3 m q4

results:

3.5m units ps3 october - dezember (we just dont know how many of this units are already included in the november 80 mio announcement. just let us guess a low 0.5m)

0.7m units ps3 january - march

xx units april + may

 

80 m + 3 + 0,7  = 83,7

and the xbox 360 will stop?


right now its sonys fiscal quarter 1

thats the lowest selling for the whole year

last year ps3 sales for april - june 1.1m

 

if we expect the same percentange drop like jan- march quater (3.4m ps3 --> 0.7 m ps3)

we got a extrem low 300k 

 

but whait we dont have to do any estimates. we just can wait for sonys next earning release.

i prove everything. and this are the only official and reliable sources. no guestimates form some random analysts

just do ur fucking homework, if u want to talk about sales figures. or stop to pretend knowing anything



*Facepalm* not another one of these threads.

I've already proved in numerous other threads using official numbers that (show the possible sales range of these two consoles) it's too close to call between the PS3 and the 360 right now, neither console is 'officially' ahead.

And claiming the 360 has 'won' regardless because a new generation of consoles has started is asinine. Taking two consoles that didn't launch at the same time and comparing their different period of sales is just pure fanboy wishful thinking. 1st, 2nd and 3rd has always and will always be decided when all the consoles stop selling once and for all.

I stopped caring after the first ps3 > 360 party

Then you missed out on the 5th party. Things got really wild (and kind of weird) at that one.

OT: The last 6-8 months of VGC numbers have been extremely unreliable, so I'd say wait until 6 more months for the customary real adjustments to occur. Also the 7th gen ends when all 7th gen consoles go out of production. That's a fact people.



I am the Playstation Avenger.

   

the only reason this was somewhat competitive was the rrod, theres probably 15 mil more ppl with a ps3 compared to (non-repeat) 360 owners... I notice more than a few already mentioned this,cause how could they not. right now,ps3 is clearly truthfully in 2nd place by a good distance imo
