2nd week (1st in europe) of price cuts and 360 below Ps3 in Japan + Others. MS has got to be worried. Next week more drops.

 

2nd week and still 360 above PS3 + PS2 in Japan, plus PSP continues to drop like a bomb. SONY has got to be worried. Next week the effect of the price cut affecting the whole week for 360 in EU will be seen. Next week more increases for 360 and more drops for PS3 in EU.

So how do you explain the Ps3 selling anything compared to the xbox...

no one is really buying either. they both are pretty much tied this week. in a perfect world they both should be selling like hotcakes, but they're not. dont' expect a big holiday from either.

But your excuse for the 360 not selling is because people are being cautious with their money. But if that were true the Ps3 wouldn't even come close to the 360 weekly because its so much more expensive. No matter what you want to believe it really is demand. The 360 is low in demand and the price drop was suppose to create some. It hardly did and it will settle back to normal levels in the next few weeks

DRock, don't bother.

The guy will back every mistake he makes (and their numbers are incredible) till the thread dies.

Today he is particularly on edge, as he received substantial pawnage in this thread and others.

@DRock: You're a new guy, so I'll warn ya now--don't bother with him.

"Boo hoo I put words in his mouth and was proved wrong" is all I got from you here.

 

I'm sure it is.

 

I'm going to take my own advice now.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

The NA numbers hardly matter. People were saying "Just wait for full week of data this is only a couple days" And then full week of data showed a drop. This week will most likely drop too. The original spike was probablly the people who were going to buy one a couple weeks ago but waited to save money. This all goes into the numbers not being impressive right after the ww drop. People wanted and expected it to be more or else no one would have said "wait for the full week"

 

Why are you adamantly flaming everyone to defend your troll?

Microsoft had legs on its price cut in Japan. You tried to tie that in with the percieved Others failure to make them look bad. A very crude, and unsuccessful attempt. You feel that if you retort enough, and stand by your original assertion, and flame all the people who fairly called you out, then it'll help you save face.

You're wrong. While what you're doing, certainly is angering all the Xbots, and that might be a secondary goal of yours, some of us see though it.

The truth, without spin, is as follows. Microsoft kept a fair bump in Japan on week two of the price cut. On an unrelated subject, it outsold the Playstation 3. The bump didn't do much for Others, the PS3 outsold it, but being outsold by the PS3 in Others isn't the bar by which we judge success. Week 2 numbers for America aren't in.

Price cuts don't work like software release bumps. Immediate and huge numbers are inconsequential. The goal of the price cut is to keep a consistance pace and raise a steady level of sales over a longer period. Therefore, we won't know how successful, or unsuccessful this price cut was for a few months.

 

Your opinions are biased and unfair. You present them in an unnecessarily harsh and argumentative manner. In doing so, you make this forum a worse place to visit, no matter what your motives. That, in itself, should be the main reason for rethinking your posting style. My intervention only points out the obvious.

Oh yes... when people assumed that 55% would be split up between 2 companies. Or they assumed one would drop out. Of course I got owned in that thread... starcraft give it up. People like you and kitchen sink put words in peoples mouths that were never said then tell them what you want them to say. Like in this thread. I never said ps3 was winning. And I showed a link to a thread where I said it was a tie right now. But kitchen sink wanted to believe so bad that I said win he was trying to convice me I said it and tried to tell me what I really said because he wanted so badly to believe it,

EDIT: meant to quote starcraft.

i don't really care about fanboy arguements. the general consensus around here is one system should be out selling this system. people are not seeing the big picture , neither is selling well because we have had a bad economy going on since 2005. it finally caught up to the gaming industry last month as you can read the NPD report.

yes i own a 360 currently, have owned sony systems before.  I also own stock in Microsoft so it helps me out you see? I'm not out to dis Sony either. but the current state of the economy is forcing a slow down and it sucks for both sides. year 3 of the 360, it should be selling like mad right now and it's not. hopefully things change quick!

no disrespect, just want to give a you a different perspective on things

Ok... this makes a little more sense. Basically you were trying to add a point and you weren't trying to relate it into Ps3 vs. 360. I understand that now.



Are you serious? The 360 outsells the PS3 for 2 weeks and that's your assessment? In the time they've been in direct competition with one another in Japan the PS3 has done nothing BUT outsell the 360, by a tune of around 5 to 1.Even with the year headstart factored in, the PS3 crushes the 360. You do realize all the number are prominently displayed at the top of VG Charts home page right?
