Now adjust the sales allowing for each consoles time to market so far.  I guess that's what the OP is going on about - 360 has sold very well but hasn't crushed PS3 in Europe and hasn't even got close to PS3 in Japan.  Personally I think the 360 has done about as well as it could in Europe, although it has been helped (inadvertently) by Sony having the wrong price point for so long and not enough games.

 

 

lol thats not how things work, friend. You can't just "adjust things to try to prove a point. It does not matter if the 360 has been around 10 years, the fact still remains that the 360 is currently in the lead in Europe. So no more threads about the 360 needing to conqur Europe until it fall behind

That's my point actually - the 360 is ahead so I'm assuming the OP is factoring in other factors.

I guess it depends what he means by 'Conquer' - if he means undisputed number 1 then neither the PS3 nor 360 have that - right now the Wii is the champ of Europe. 

 



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Or strictly speaking, the PS2 is :)

Touche!  - Funny, seeing PS2 going into its tenth year and still selling games/consoles - no wonder Sony keep going about PS3 lasting ten years.
