I expected (since MONTHS lol) this late october come back

but the overall PAL sales adjustements have completely broken my prediction

so I dont know ....

If you made the prediction months ago, how can the adjustment change anything?

 

 

you right man. I did this prediction after the full list of price drop was announced (2 monthS ago ?)

well, at least, I was close.

depends on LBP sales.

if it give a boost even a small one of 20k. its ps3 victory.

 

 i think the delay/recall took the wind out of its sales so to speak.

itll still sell a lot, but mainly with the existing PS3 userbase. Im sure many who planned on getting a PS3 for this, only to find it wasnt available and delayed for a week, that the impulse passed and they moved on.

 

 if anyone truely waited for LBP to get a ps3 then they better have a effin wii because that is just ridiculous, or live in EU/japan and wanted the bundle and pick up all the other awesome titles

just saying those who had the impulse notion may have lost interest when the delay hit and just bought a Wii or 360 instead. Its more then possible.......

Oh, and ur year end prediction for 360 is insanely low.

 



2008 360 prediction: 26 million (thus surpassing XBOX lifetime sales in one year less time).

As long as there are 360 bashers, I will be there to do something about it.

I am going to agree and say LBP might actually put PS3 ahead this week. Even if it does though, that is going to turn really fast when Gears is released.

Maybe WW by 20k?



I think it can do it deffinatly. Last week saw a lot of new PS3 bundles come out and i would assume majority of them will be LBP ones. America has advertised LBP to such a degree i think everyone knows about it. I have seen hardly any Gears 2 exposure but everything is LBP. So i think the week will be a lot closer then people think. Fable II came out the week before it and i can't see many people waiting to buy a 360 just to play Fallout 3.

So i think yes the PS3 will beat the 360 worldwide this week but only by like 5k-10k. Then the following week i think were see the PS3 get crushed by the sales from Gears 2. Then the week after that it will get crushed by the sales of Left4Dead and so on. This will be the week the PS3 can win, after that i can't see it.



I suppose it could. That depends on if Fable 2 still helped the 360 out after 2 weeks, and if hype for LittleBigPlanet is really as high as some are saying.

198k 360

you strike me as a PS3 fanboy. However you have to draw the line between loyalty and realism.

You loyalty makes you have too much optimism and forget.....that PS3 isnt as big as ud like it to be.

 Well, as the ten week countdown is the official result for who is the best predictor on VGChartz, you're currently the 8th best predictor on VGChartz.

That is VGChartz LONGEST review. And it's NOT Cute Kitten DS

Apparently Not.




 

Close, but no cigar.
