Forums - Sales Discussion - 360 outselling PS3 since gta launch

TheBigFatJ on 29 May 2008

Let me see if I get this right:

For the first fifteen weeks or so of 2008, Chart-Track had the PS3 outselling the 360 every single week. This includes 4 weeks of 360 price drop where 360 sales doubled compared to the four weeks before the price cut.

For the most recent few weeks (since GTA 4's launch) the 360 has been outselling the PS3.

Isn't the 360 Premium cheaper than the Wii in the UK? The system could very well be selling to gamers who want GTA 4 cheap.

I thought people avoided the Arcade? I heard it has a 50 % failure rate

You heard wrong. If anything, it has a lower failure rate because there's no HDD in the unit.

You need to learn from darthdevidem01. Trolling with lies is just a poor effort on your part. On the other hand, twisting half-truths is the way to go =/

I didn't say anything about the Arcade. I said that I believed the Premium was cheaper than the Wii in the UK (and most of Europe).

As far as the failure rate is concerned, they're all the same hardware -- the arcade, the premium and the elite -- except for the inclusion of the hard drive and the size of the hard drive.  If you have an arcade, you get the same experience as someone who has the elite, even though you paid about $170 less.
