yes... there is

MS market cap is $166billlion, Sony is $24billion

The 360 is not half the price. One of the SKU's is half the price, one is 2/3 and the other is 3/4.

The lead has increased since the launch of the PS3 by 3.5million.

 

We're talking about the SKUs that actually 'sell'.  LOL.

As far as christmas sales go, the Arcade counted for 50%

Is it shameful that PS3 has sold so much less then PS2? Perhaps. I think it is even more shameful that a 250 Billion doller company (MS) will be getting spanked by a 50 Billion doller company (Sony) two console generations in a row.

It's pretty shameful that the 360 is a year older and hlaf the price of the PS3 with only a 8 million unit lead. How many units had the 360 sold when it was the same age?3,923,987 LESS then the PS3.

No, no let's just continue living in bizro world where the 360 isn't a year older the PS3, or tha PS3 and Wii sales won't count after the 720 comes out. Lol the 720, will it use bluray?

 

Crazzyman??

 And there is a $500 PS3 on the market right now. That's $300 more then the Arcade which makes uo for 65% of 360 sales. "Fa LA LA LA LA! let's all live in lie world!"

I'm not your skivvy, go look at christmas week sales. Subtract what Kung Fu Panda sold from total 360 sales that week and there you have it.

so you agree... the PS3 pricing structure is idiotic and sony really fucked up...

 

 They fucked up and they kicked ass. First you pointed out that MS has more the 10 times the money to spend then Sony, bravo. So you aknowlege that even the possibility of Nintendo or Sony beating them in any market is completely humiliating? It's like a 50 pound six year old kicking a 500 pound wrestlers ass.  

Second Is PS3 overpriced? Yup. Is HDDVD DEAD? Yup. Eveytime you think of HD-DVD and how dead it is think of bluray and how it was a fuggup and genius at the same time to put it into the PS3.

Megaman obviously can't give a straight answer .. well he knows the PS3 won't outsell the 360 he just doesn't want to admit it.

Not many people left to buy a 360. Price point already at $200, so what you see now, are some of the best sales it'll ever see. Pretty pathetic actually. On the other hand, the PS3 has a long way to go and the sales will spike. Lots of people will still buy the PS3 regardless of any further cuts to the 360, the impact will be lot bigger.
