@kirby007,

why are u talking about FIFA or PES when the first was NEVER a PSX associated game and the second is not out yet ???

The only thing that u can see from the darthdevidem01's link is that Xbox360 sales is decreasing significatively and that the weekly console sales is now very close to the PS3 numbers...

wait and see !

last generation my friend it was

I m just realizing the drop is quite important while the PS3 are quite stable :

check it yourself !

this is more telling (as price cut was in EU regions)....and bad news for M$ as next week PS3 will definetely equal if not once again be over 360 in EU

 

why is it bad when the xbox360 is stealing marketshare like hell?

just like pes and fifa used too be ps dominated but it isn't anymore

 

You realise last year that the PS3 version of PES and FIFA outsold the 360 versions? By about 500k for PES 08 (with the PS2 version still selling 3.5m, and then the PS3 2nd best with 1.75m, then 360 then PSP). For FIFA 08, it was again PS2, PS3, 360, PSP

Most of the sales come on the PS platforms

And we'll probably continue to see a drop with 360 for next week as well. Probably would have been majority this week had it not been for FIFA 09. Probably fall off to a 50k-60k weekly average if it's lucky. Rest of the sales are staying persistent as usual.

Hmmm 360 sales dropping but we still don't know the real effect. Hell it might even be neck-to-neck with the PS3 during the normal weeks as the ammount of casual sony fanboys in UK alone is just shocking!



End of '08 predictions (made by theprof00): PS3: 20m, 360: 23.5m, wii: 42m

Now Playin':  PS3|Resistance 2, LBP, Uncharted and Fifa 09, PSP| Ratchet and Clank: Size matters, 360| Gears of war 2 and Fallout 3.

PS3 still selling at a good rate, and increasing again. Good to see ^_^.

And just to keep this site's "majority" happy:

NINTENDO DOMINATION!!!

Ms can't be happy with that price drop. They get a bump of interest then it wanes. At the price and with the same multi-plats, good exclusives and a bigger back catalog it should be selling well above PS3 considering that unless you really want BR as well it offers essentially the same as 360 for a much higher cost.

If 360 drops back below PS3 (which it looks like it will) I'll be really curious what MS do then as if they leave things as they are then 360 will definitely be third in Others. I know some are assuming the current economic situation will favour 360 (and it should) but the crunch is already on and 360 is really only a small amount above PS3 and trending down from the initial cut vs PS3 holding pretty steady.

They better hope the price cut holds better in Japan and especially the US as a three to four week bump that settles back isn't much for a pretty big drop in regular price.

If 360 does drop back then if I was Sony I'd seriously consider a very modest price cut before holidays in Others. The way its holding steady even a modest drop would likely generate a sustained increase in average weekly sales, which tied to new games and holiday season should drive strong sales.

Excellent post;

And agreed.

An extremely modest PS3 price cut after 360 falls back below it would really increase sales weekly, and effectively put the nail in the 360's coffin, at least in that territory.
