Forums - Sales Discussion - Predictions - When Will PS3 overtake 360 WW?

@Seraphic : For people who had to endure months of lies about Sony being doomed and 3rd place, this will be meaningful, seeing all those people eating crows and being laughed at.

Then again, it will be meaningful for the PS brand too to come back to the first place in HD consoles, a place it wouldn't have ever left actually, had the consoles simply been released at the same time.

I was answering your first statement about the 360 division being profitable, not your second statement about Xbox 1.

And Xbox 360 wasn't making profit 3 years ago since billions were lost in the RROD fiasco.

Same thing for Xbox 1, it wasn't profitable at all (several billions in losses).

Only 1 billion dollars was paid out to extend all 360 warranties to three years which covers the repairs only for RROD.

How much money did Sony lose on the PS3. $4 billion or $5 billion dollars? More than Microsoft lost on both XBox and XBox 360 combined.



Yes see'n people eating crow is well and fine, even more so if there statements were fanboy-ish, however in the end it doesn't even matter, crow or no crow nothing is gained besides the satisfaction of saying "Hey i told you, you were WRONG and I was RIGHT! so there! HA!" and to be honest, dunno bout any of you guys but i've matured out of that phase, can't believe i was like that at one point.

If you take a long look at it, who cares? as long as we get good games fuck the console wars and do what we as gamers SHOULD be doing instead of bitching on the interwebz... gaming!

I agree games are what matters, heck that's why I prefer the PS3 actually, it just has better exclusives, and more of them.

But it's only logical people who lied and predicted wrong are now being laughed at...

So, no.

A 2005 article... what a source...



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

@Sardauk : a 2005 article for a 2005 event, wow what a spin /sarcasm



Wow. Look at all those crow eaters. Its awesome to see peoples expectations and predictions to continue to fall when looking at this thread.



If this thread was an animal, it would be a phoenix :D



Q1 2010 - LISMDK, LongLiveTheBeatles, Bursche, waron, sdfoxwwe, Nintendo Zealot,

These people are next in line to miss their prediction.
