I agree it's not going to happen. The sales boost from Halo 3 is probably going to be pretty huge, but not big or long enough considering how well the Wii is selling.

Probably going to pull ahead of the PS3 for the rest of the year though.

Ding ding ding ding.... We have a winner. Damn, I hope it's not true though. I need companies to invest in games for my PS3. I am going to go cry.

I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

i think it will sell better than the wii in america and europe, but japan is still going to be on wii's side. It will be too hard to over come japan.

Bioshock may support Halo 3 boost and vice versa. But i don't think that 360 will pass Wii.

By the way, when thinking Halo 3:s sales impact, does it have wordwide launch? And does Bioshock?

I think we might see the Xbox360 outselling the Wii WW for one week, but the Wii is going to have too large a lead by the time Halo is released to pull that lead back.

So I'm going to go with "No"

Help! I'm stuck in a forum signature!

The difference weekly is about 160k. Add onto that a 60k difference in total numbers now and you have the 360 needing to sell over 300k in one week, that number increasing by 160k/wk.

Halo will not catch the 360 back up.

PS3: 5.51m/51w, avg 108,039/w (up 239)
360: 12.93m/102w, avg 126,764/w (up 625), leads PS3 by 7.42m (up 70k), avg lead 18,725/w (up 386)
Wii: 13.52m/51w, avg 265,098/w (dn 1,102), leads PS3 by 8.01m (up 90k), avg lead 157,059/w (dn 1,341)

If 360 sales stabilize, PS3 sales increases needed to pass 360 by...
01/08: (008w) +875.8%, 04/08: (021w) +344.4%, 07/08: (034w) +219.3%, 10/08: (047w) +163.5%
01/09: (060w) +131.8%, 04/09: (073w) +111.4%, 07/09: (085w) +098.1%, 10/09: (099w) +086.7%
If Wii sales stabilize, PS3 sales increases needed to pass Wii by...
01/08: (008w) +1072.%, 04/08: (021w) +498.4%, 07/08: (034w) +363.4%, 10/08: (047w) +303.1%
01/09: (060w) +269.0%, 04/09: (073w) +246.9%, 07/09: (085w) +232.6%, 10/09: (099w) +220.3%
If PS2 sales freeze, Wii sales increases needed to pass PS2 (as of Mar07, 108.4m) by...
2008: (008w) +4373.8%, 2009: (060w) +0496.5%, 2010: (112w) +0219.6%, 2011: (165w) +0116.9%
2012: (217w) +0064.9%, 2013: (269w) +0033.1%, 2014: (321w) +0011.5%, 2015: (376w) -0004.8%
At +0% it will pass it in 358w, the week ending September 19th, 2014, at an age of 409w (7y44w).
Current age of PS2: 7y37w.
