so what???

360 is destroying PS3 in American Sales...

Are you blind?? The PS3 and 360 are pretty much even in NA since the start of the year, with the recent trend being that the PS3 outsells the 360.

Also I think it is important because the PS3 is just about to pass the 360 in arguably the biggest market in the world...


I am not blind!!! NPD reports from March and April 360 was still ahead of PS3...

*colonelstubbs You have notice that 360 has sold 6 million more units in America???

 Also you have noticed that 360 has sold more units in the last 2 NPD  reports???


 The one year lead might have something to do with that. By your logic the PS2 is destroying Wii+360+PS3 in America.

 I was talking about VGC numbers. NPD is USA only, not all of NA. Also according to NPD in USA, 360 and PS3 are tied in sales.

Are we forgetting the year headstart the 360 enjoyed?

 That will be in fall 2010. So you will delete your account then?



Everybody is like: blah blah Sony's end of year line-up is better than 360's, so it will sell more...

But you all seem to be forgetting Sony's (not so) secret weapon: blu-ray.

It's practicaly RAINING blu-ray releases and HD sets being sold by the bucketload. So come holiday season, lots of consumers are gonna buy into the next generation of home cinema, and lots of them will pick the PS3 for it's multifunctional capabilities.

So yes, PS3 sells a bit more than 360 now, and their end-of year line-up is better (not THAT much, but still), but on top of that, they'll win over film bufs

I'm not saying they'll catch up on 360 by the end of 08, but the rate at which they catch up, will only speed up from now on.

Not strictly true.

Blu Ray isnt selling as well as Sony would have hoped

 Really? Got a link where Sony said that? 

Blu-Ray is catching on quicker than DVD was at the same point in its life. Blu-Ray is very successful at the moment.
