Around the Network

Why does it matter? =)

It`s not like devs will stop support PS3.

And PS3 definitiley will pass 14 mln. next year in USA. AND probably reach 20 mln. by the end of 2010. That still more, then xbox/GC had. :)

So, why does this matter?



Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...

2009.04.30 - PS3 will OUTSELL x360 atleast by the middle of 2010. Japan+Europe > NA.


Gran Turismo 3 - 1,06 mln. in 3 weeks with around 4 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Gran Turismo 4 - 1,16 mln. with 18 mln. PS2 on the launch.

Final Fantasy X - around 2 mln. with 5 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Final Fantasy X-2 - 2.4 mln. with 12 mln. PS2 on the launch.

 

1.8 mln. PS3 today(2008.01.17) in Japan. Now(2009.04.30) 3.16 mln. PS3 were sold in Japan.
PS3 will reach 4 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 25k.

PS3 may reach 5 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 50k.
PS2 2001 vs PS3 2008 sales numbers =) + New games released in Japan by 2009 that passed 100k so far

14 million, you know I would argue you that but you don't believe it yourself.

Epic is practically a first party.

So there are two games which sold over 3 million and are third party exclusives. Gears 1,2.

lol fixed.

edit - Oh wait it IS already 1st party. My point was actually ...

but that has nothing to do with this topic .... :(



 

3,5 mln. by the end of 2007.
+4,5mln = 8 mln. by the end of 2008.
+6 mln. = 14 mln. by the end of 2009(unless there won`t be pricecut).

By the end - i mean approximately +-4 weeks.

So, why does this matter?

Guerilla Games: 1st party - Sony owns the I.P and studio making the game.

Insomniac: 2nd party - Sony owns the I.P but the studio is independant.

Epic: 3rd party - Epic owns the I.P and the studio is independant.

Just because Microsoft is publishing the game doesn't make it 2nd party, this isn't your usual studio/publisher relationship.

 



Tease.

Because crazy its not going to double its total sales to date in one year in the middle of a recession when its main rival just had a price cut.

I corrected it for you.



 

seece, so in next 2-3 weeks, PS3 will sell only 250k in NA???
It sold 240k BEFORE Christmas alone in NA. Next week should be 400-500k, and one more week +150-200k.
So it`s 8 mln. by the end of this year.

+4 mln. sales in 2009 = MINIMUM and WITHOUT price cut. =) Total - 12 mln.
+5 mln. = average. Total - 13 mln.
+6 mln. = ATLEAST, with PRICECUT. Total - 14 mln.

I predict 18-20% Market share for the PS3 in America at the end of 09.



4 ≈ One
