?? no site said that PS3 overtake 360 in software sales ever.

 

This is the last quarter of EA software(that the PS3 has been on top). Not industry wide software. EA software only. I think the PS3 has been beating the 360 for EA software sales for the last 2 quarters though.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

The topic creator's claims are ABSOLUTE RUBBISH!!!! How many times today does this need to be explained before people get it?

Firstly, revenue DOES NOT EQUAL PROFIT!!! If you sell 20 RRP Wii games and 20 RRP PS3 games, the PS3 games bring in more revenue because of their higher price tag. This does not tell us how much profit the company has made. Development costs, publishing costs, disc pressing etc etc, once all of these are deducted, then you get your profit figure.

And secondly, the figures up there are mostly for periods that haven't happened yet, they are PROJECTIONS!!! You're telling me that we are currently in Q1 of the 2009 financial year? This is how much revenue EA EXPECTS the platforms to bring in. Look at the periods that have actually happened so far, you'll see that the 360 continues to absolutely trounce the PS3 by your own flawed measurements.

Stop posting topics making these huge claims when they are nothing but lies!!

Most companies' finacial years end in March of that calendar year.  For example, FY'09 would end in March of '09, thus Q1'09 would run from March '08 to June '08.

The notable exception is Sony, whose financial year begins in March of that calendar year, thus Sony's FY'09 would start in March of '09.

I'm not saying that VG chartz isn't wrong.

I just want to know what.

20 million is a lot of money = that about 450k units worldwide wholesale. EAs sales on the PS3 are about 11 million since the launch of the console.

450k in one quarter is pretty significant from 11 million lifetime.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
