Forums - Sales - Who will come outon top in next week (GTA IV's week) hardware's number?

Both will get hardware boost, but the PS3 will win. Both consoles will sell 200k or more ww. I don't see any of them outselling the Wii next week; it could be close though.

It should still be the same. Wii on top followed by PS3 followed closely by 360.

Why the devil would the Xbox 360 win? PS3 will continue to beat it.

beat it? don't you mean continue to catch up slooowly?


Catch up? I thought he was talking about the 360 not the Ps3 outselling 360 by 850k already this year....


You're correct, PooperScooper. I wasn't talking about the fact that the PS3 has outsold the 360 this year by 850k despite a higher price tag, an "inferior" game library with none of it's "big" system sellers out yet.


Can you tell me, and I am not being sarcastic because I really do not know, which of these "big" system sellers actually move huge numbers in the US?? (aside from GTAIV as that is out now and is going to sell more on the 360 in the US) . Its just that its getting a little old........


 In the US? MGS4, Tekken 6, GT5, FF13, GOW3, KZ2, any new IP with huge marketing, blah blah blah, etc.......

I'm in Europe so maybe you should ask a Yank, they would know better than me. Anyway, let's not try to go too off-topic.



  

I reckon PS3.

@Sulla

but the Ps3 has NEVER received such a HUGE GAME before...GT5 prologue was a glorified demo according to most

@kingofwale

360 has no chance of passing 300K

PS3 being ahead of it in Na a week before tells us what platform GTA IV will be affecting more

XBOX has sold like 4M GTA software... and u have to realise that the cheapest entry for a person to play GTA is XBOX arcade at almost half the price of PS3..

So if we assume that like 5% are the new buyers for XBOX then it translates to like 200k extra sales..

and if PS3 sells like 3M GTA sofware and it has also 5% new buyer (remember PS3 has double the price, so its not the cheapest way to play GTA) then it sells like 150k extra console... so with normal sales plus the GTA hardware boost we have both around 350k - 400k for next week...

So thats why i thought its going to be a tough call to see which will sell more hardware next week...

Your formula is flawed.



@pooperscooper

he's the same person who thinks GT 5 Prologue has bombed...

I believe both will double, That's what I'm prediction. close to 400K for PS3, fueled by GTAIV bundle.
