when ps3 has the same hardware in the market xbox360 has, them we can compare sales in it's justice. But now, even with the difference between them, when a ps3 game sold more than a 360, that's an embarasment for microsoft. some titles that dude describe above sold much more in america, since america is the lowest region for ps3 that's very predictable to happen. anyway i don't give a **** for who's winning, i just want to have fun with games

instead of worrying about which platform sold more copies of game, we should be focused on how much each game sells in general.

if 1.23 million downloads sell of a particular song for a music artist on iTunes, and that same artist sells only 1.10 million downloads of the same song on Zune, does it really matter? the artist just knows that he's made a boatload of cash by selling 2.33 million downloads of his song.

we need to focus more on the success of games themselves then the platform they are on in my opinion.

Lets see, the 360 has larger userbase.


But a shrinking lead (with the exception of the last two weeks) so if we are talking about "momentum" this speaks for the PS3.
In other words the 360 has the biggest userbase and it has the momentum right now.

The PS3's biggest remaining exclusive launched and like all the other big PS3 exclusives the sales spiked and came back to earth.


The PS3's biggest remaining THIRD-PARTY exclusive launched. Gran Turismo 5 is arguably its biggest exclusive.
You are actually correct with this one. Gran Turismo 5 is the biggest remaining bullet in the PS3 gun.

The biggest remaining exclusive for the PS3 was announced for 360.


The biggest remaining third-party exclusive that has its largest market in Japan was announced for 360 outside of Japan. Cool.

Unfortunately for Sony most consoles are sold out side of Japan. The largest markets for Sony's Playstation brand have historically been Europe followed closely by North America.

The biggest and most popular JRPG makers, Square Enix and Namco, are favoring the 360 over the PS3 when it comes to exclusive content.


A very expensive privilege for MS I am sure. Which doesn't change the fact that the 360 has a 650k userbase in Japan so it effectively doesn't exist on that island. BTW the PS3 has 2.3m sold in Japan or almost four times as much.

Whether they paid for exclusivity is immaterial, and for the majority of the titles it debatable. No one, well no one thats sane, ever thought MS would have any chance in Japan, but if Sony continues to lose hardware moving franchises to MS it will continue to make Japan a non-factor for the HD market and tilt the focus major Japanese third party developers towards the West where MS is strongest. Do you really think that the PS3 would only have 2.3 million units sold if it had the JRPG lineup that the 360 has?

Great news for PS3.

And hasn't the 360 been winning for 3 weeks running? Why does everyone keep saying 2? This next week coming up i almost a sure shot at 4 weeks as well.



Just kiss the tip.

Kryos, the GT series is 1st party, not 3rd.

You can post these type of threads all day if you like Rock On. It won't change the fact that the 360 has the momentum in the HD console race right now.

 

It's alright, you don't have to suck up to starcraft so much.  He has been lonely since DJM stopped worshipping him so stop trying so hard.

 

Edit: Nice to see you back to SONY RULES thread, that bush thread scared me for a sec.....lol

 

I can't believe I missed this drivel. I don't suck up to anyone. Now if you don't have anything useful to post,I suggest you get back to your Sony shrine and await the delivery of your next set of talking points.
