Does anyone still think GOW 3 willl be the final death blow to the Xbox 360?

On the contrary I think Gears of War 3 will boost 360 sales that week

 

Haha. Are we on this "is GOW gears/god of war" thing again?

 



Around the Network

I think SONY can't bring Killzone franchises in to NA that is the end of PS3 in NA i think 360 still strong sell in all region even in Japan. I think if SONY can't beat 360 in NA they will loss in this generation.



So, I guess it is a new practice to update the numbers during lunch hour, eh?

so in the land of the FPS.... a hyped RTS outsells a mega-hyped FPS

"Mega-hyped" is the Ron Paul/Snakes on a Plane Effect.  Objects on the internet appear larger then they actually are.  The hype off the internet for Killzone 2 wouldn't match anything Halo.  Being on here distorts one's view of how things actually are out in the real world.

In regards to the sales, Wii Fit has to be a killer app, if there ever was one.  I see the promo video they run at Toys R Us.  It is low key, but then makes one think that working out could be fun, so it becomes a "have to have it" type of product.

Will Sony beat the Wii?  If not, then how can it be said to have won this generation?

 



With EU & NA sales, the gap between PS3 and X360 for this week is 23,555. According to Famitsu, PS3 beats X360 by ~26,000 in Japan.

So, PS3 outsells X360 worldwide again this week.



End of '09 predictions :

Playstation 3 : 36M
Xbox 360 : 38M
Wii : 71M

Better check your math again, you missed 10,000.

The gap right now between the two is 35,607... but let's see what happens.

Your maths is crap, the gap is 35k+ atm, 360 will lead by 10k this week.
