Since when is the winner determined by who is closest to the one in the lead?

Yep, all 20 of 'em.

Then the table turned and it sold better with the price cut..... I remember the January NPD when it outsold the 360... OMG to 360 is doomed everyone said.... During the summer more voices were added to that.... And now the PS3 is back in the firing line.... No turning back, nowhere to go everyone suddenly says.... I guess people never learn and might be shocked if/when the tables have turned again. Remember we are not even half way through the generation yet... |
I agree with this message 100%

HD consoles and the Wii don't tend to share games. Heck they hardly share genres.
This is why the comparison is rarely brought up. Single HD console owners are interested in their console "winning" because it means more gaming support for their console. They could care less how the Wii is doing, because its not really competition at this point.
The Wii is leaping forward into new territory, which not all gamers are really interested in. Thus, the comparison, between it, and the HD consoles, has no meaning, in some circumstances.
Would a comparison between the Wii and the VSmile be meaningful? On some fronts... yes. On most fronts... nope.

No.
The arguments about who outsold who by 10k or whatever are purely ego boosters and have nothing to do with subconscious impressions of console libraries. That may be a nice thought but it's far from the truth. The PS3 and 360 are already so similar in functionality and game libraries that who pushes who to last place isn't going to matter because they'll still be getting the same games that they were in 2nd or 3rd place. At this point the only thing that's going to affect that are 1st/2nd party games and bought exclusives. It's an arbitrary war and everyone knows it.
And besides...Monster Hunter 3. That's all that really needs to be said on that subject.

i think people tend to skip over calculated facts and figures when it disagrees with their guess/opinion
I didnt wanna come to these kinda threads in fear of being banned but oh well...
In my Personal Opinion: the PS3 will never catch up to the 360 in NA now, its game over for sony. They have a chance in EU/AU/UK Regions but thats all she wrote. and of course they rule japan wii/ds/psp aside of course but still...
In conclusion ... Sony is screwed in terms of grasping NA like the 360 has... its to late the damage is done and theres nothing they can do now.
Eww i feel emo-ish...

i think judging from other number for last 2 months, if trends continues, MS also starting to take over 'others' region too.
whats for sony now?.............................
