not interested in bluray, most wanted games are multiplat, have a weak PC so 360/PC games like Mass Effect and Gears are only on 360. Dont see $400 as a reasonable buy when there are only a handful of PS3 exclusives that hold my interest.

You on the other hand can buy a 360 at $200 and go from there. But ya, sorry for going off topic.

I'm not trying to be a fanboy or anything but I think this is an appropriate time to post this image.

Everyone knows PS3 will fail, It's common sense PS3 will fail because i say it will, Playstation brand no more!!!!!!!

Wii sales rule, the PS3 continues to drool.

This thread just became a whole lot more fun.  Paul needs music.

All 360 fans party hard!

I know your post is sarcasm but I figure I;ll reply anyways.

People need to stop the trolling against Sony. Sony is doing VERY well considering the price point and the fact the year over year Sony has greatly increased marketshare and number of console sales that the PS3 has. 

Using our hardware chart located under Chartz you will find that this week is week 108 of the PS3's life. Comparing week 108 of the PS3 and 360 you will find that the PS3 is at 17.35m whie the 360 was only at 14.9m meaning that the PS3 is definitely selling at a faster rate than the 360 did in the same time frame.

Great Wii/DS and 360 sales in others. A 140k bump for the 360. US sales will show about another 250k bump for the 360. Thus in about 2-3 more weeks the 360 total year sales will be higher than the PS3's.

Let's review:
Last year towards the end, the PS3 saw a $100 price cut and became a great value as both a gaming console and a Blu-Ray player, thus hurtling it into great end of the year and start or 08 momentum. Then the 360 has a long overdue price cut (not some last chance effort or predatory strategy) that takes affect in September. The sales slowly incline until the holiday season gives the 360 all the momentum, which will probably carry well into the next year. So, considering both consoles have a great line-up of games, people on both sides will be happy with their purchases. So, since no PS3 price cut has been confirmed, and nothing can be more than speculated as far as what the price cut will do for the PS3 sales, we can only go off of current momentum, which puts the 360 at the advantage for 2009.

Assuming that the PS3 cuts prices ANOTHER $100, all MS has to do is cut prices a mere $50 or offer great bundles and other deals to increase their value to match. Given that the 360 has other means of revenue besides hardware and games (LIVE) and the PS3 online only costs them more money (I doubt the paid downloads and ads make up for all the cost). So, final word is: If Sony lowers the price, MS can back them into an even darker corner, one which Sony will not wish to go in, thus they are likely to hold out on price cuts for as long as possible.

You can't just compare their first 108 week sales.  I'm not trying to prove you wrong, merely state that since the 360 was the only console on the market, many people did not even consider buying it until they could compare it to the competition.  Notice that 2007 sales were much higher even with 2 other consoles to choose from in the market.  Just saying it gives a skewed picture.

Sales of both systems over the same time period starting when PS3 released shows they are doing very similar, with no console having any major lead:

Wise observations @Ssj12 ,hopes this ends this stupid PS3 hunt.

Wow.  Just wow.  You truly can believe anything if you try hard enough.  I think we've stumbled upon the reason for most of the wars in recorded history.
