Forums - Sales - Ps3 and 360 "neck and neck" in Europe!

Good job for VGC, bad for that site, being "neck and neck", but under PS3 and with the difference diverging having had an head start of more than a year and more than 2.5 million units doesn't look so great for XB360, the journalist should study some basic maths...

But as The Fury noticed, it could be seen with a little effort also looking at the launch aligned graph used in the article.

Head to Head When PS3 is far more expensive. Therefore PS3 doing better.



Supernova82 said:
360 had a 16 month head start on PS3 in Europe. So guess PS3 is doing well to be in front of X360 in European region.

 

No! Just because PS3 has outsold the 360 in Europe does not mean it is neccessarily doing good in Europe. You forget that PS2 finished over 100 million units WW ahead of the Xbox.


I think that the PS3 has a lot more juice in it and bigger momentum gains ahead.



That's a very very subjective 'neck and neck' - i.e not nearly in the in the big picture.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

^^
I agree, and the big picture is quite complicated, different launch times, delayed PS3 launch in EU and others, strong XB360 lead in USA... And the article is quite untimely, as we'll have to wait more than another 2 weeks, to all XB360 price cuts currently happening to not only entirely show their immediate effects (right now we only know good immediate ones in NA and JPN), but show how they'll settle after too and finally be charted, the current situation isn't very indicative for the longer term and we still haven't a clue on how it will evolve.
