PS3 total WW last week was adjusted down by around 33k. And the EU gap PS360 is 18k, less than last weeks 24k. This is indicating that the PS360 gap will be much lower than last week WW (40k initial, 32k adjusted, I predict 5-10k this week). So I think WW levels PS360 is much more equal this week.

no..gt5:p is this week in america, ps3 will easily be 50k ahead of the 360.


 

Gran Tourismo is big in the US, but the effect of GTp will be NOTHING like it was in Europe. Look at the sales of GT4, and you will get an idea.

yes, i'm well aware its not as big in america, but a 5-10k gap when GT5:P is being released is not going to happen, ps3 will beat the 360 by at least 50k ww.

I think the PS3 and the 360 may enjoy a permanent boost from GTA IV and I think the pretty high numbers we're seeing now is preparation for the game, its gonna be huuuuuge for sure.



yea I was not disagreeing about the gap... I was pointing out that GT is not gonna have a huge push for PS3 like it did in others.



End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

 I did forget about that, so makes it more interesting to see by how much since no GT5P bundle in NA.



Oh yeah, GT5: P came out last week in America. It should be ahead of the XBOX 360 by at least a good margin this week.

That's the increase for the Wii I was expecting. Can Mario Kart Wii hit two million before it launches in NA?



better week for 360 but if you look carefully, its not selling more than a £299 console, if ps3 was same price as 360, you can forget about the xbox.

still good numbers from 360 though, ps3 is down because of the gt5p boost is fading, but over the coming months there are continuous boosts for ps3 ready for the fire off lol

PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk

 no - that would be a dropoff rate of only like 5-10%



Will PS3 even have a boost in NA due to GT 5 P...

I'm not sure....



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey
