The things I mentioned was on the internet people should remember the shortages after holiday 2007, when microsoft came out and said they had shortages,

and people should remember the recent news of microsoft replenishing hardware in Japan back in september,

so please I ain't going to work that hard just to prove my point to a person that still don't even believe the company that makes the system.

someone else might but not me.

If you can't prove a point, then don't make one.

You really are shooting yourself in the foot with this argument. Be glad that Zucas, Khuutra, or Naz isn't here to argue with you. I'm nice. 

Again, you are not entitled whatever the hell you'd like as truth. Because what are you doing isn't true at all.

The reason why I am not goint to find the links is because Max won't even believe the company, so what is the point.

Look, the only case where I can remember the 360 in shortage was in Japan when Tales launched. It was hard to find and we have pictures documenting it.

Whenever they claimed the same in America before GTA launched (and was being outsold by PS3) they claimed the same. Those were refuted because no major retailer was out online and they were easily found in stores.

I am talking about in January when they were having shortages right after the holiday season.

They probably had shortages up to march right before GTA 4 launch as well, its funny how it is the month of march ps3 closed the gap, again like I said 360 had shortages same time last year after the holiday season, and like I said before it's not a stretch of the imagination that they are now running low, because from september 2008 to February 2009 microsoft sold 8 million consoles, thats 8 million consoles in 6 months, its not unbelievable to me that they are now running low, because it happened last year and they are selling more consoles than last year.

And I don't think it was proven true that microsoft was not telling the truth I think it was gamers saying that and showing one or two retailers don't mean anything like I said I had shortages in my area around that time.

I will post again so you can read it.

give. it. up. sales. never. increased. shortages. never. hindered. sales.

I never said shortages hindered sales, because I don't remember if sales for 360 went up or not, all I said their were shortages, thats all.

If the shortage didn't hinder sales, then that wasn't a shortage at all. A small amount of supply with an even smaller amount of buyers is called lack of demand for a product rather than a shortage.

I never said sales increased or not, because I do not remember, sales may have increased for 360 but PS3 still outsold the 360 overall for the first half of the year.

 

you know... we are on a site were you can check that out pretty easily. i cant copy and paste but i just checked and the 360 line follows the same trend the ps3 one does. the only time there was a note worthy increase was gta4 time along with ps3. and steady increase leading up to gta4 just like the ps3 too. sales never increased

I think sales did increase but not by anything significant.

This thread gives me a headache...

Can't we all just get along? Both PS3 and 360 are doing fine and are pumping out great games regularly. imo that's all that matters.
