Fortune favors the bold.

That said I call BS :)

XBox360 has a huge install base in the US which is where GTA sells the best (Europe is a close second but so the 360 is still slightly ahead of the PS3 there too). I think that this will balance out the Huge boost that this should give the PS3 and I see 360 and PS3 both increasing but keeping the relatively same ratio to eachother they have now.



Currently dreaming of: DKC4 or Sonic the Hedgehog 4 (classic 2D platformers) for WiiWare, Smash Bros. for DSi, New Super Mario World for DSi, a Wii remake or true sequel of Final Fantasy Tactics.

One down, hopefully more awesomeness to come.

Is it really necessary to create another PS3 beating 360 thread?

rock on is getting rock old.....



Damn things have changed since 2009 began. Here are my new visions for the end of the generation.

 

Wii: 135 mil

Ps3: 85 mil

360: 60 mil

With MGS4 I see PS3 getting ahead around 100K units due to reitroduction of 80 GB to NA market for that week then drop to 60 K difference.

but GTAIV will have 20-30K hardware unit in favour of PS3 nothing more(as it is now with both numbers being bigger),,,360 might actually get ahead by 10 K unit,,,we'll never know till then

Yes, not only is it necessary but it is a necessity! There is no way PS3 will outsell 360 from June till the year ends by 100,000 a week.

 Well, there were quite a few "DS is god" and "low PSP software" sales threads and posts.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

You also forgot about the endless amounts of Wii will get to 60 million harware by 2008 and other impossible Wii targets in threads and posts.
