And like I posted in other threads the reason I think the Gap was closed last month was because the 360 is having hardware shortages worldwide.

I know some people won't want to hear that but that is a strong possibility.


dear lord please stop... 360 never had shortages in its existance why the hell would MS not be able to manufacture 180k 360s weekly. the possibility of shortages is like .01%

Pachter, LOL.

In all honesty according to VG Chartz PS3 did close the gap this month, but 360 still outsold the PS3 in america and by 30K worldwide, 360 so far this year until killzone 2 came out was outselling the PS3 by 30K worldwide weekly, so what 360 did in January and for some parts of February, they did for the whole month of march, which like I said outsold PS3 by 30K for the entire month, so yes the PS3 closed the gap but still didn't outsell the 360 for the month.

360 has outsold the PS3 every month so far this year, the PS3 only outsold the 360 for 2 weeks so far this year when Killzone 2 came out.


and last year ps3 consecutively outsold the 360 for like 30 weeks.... look what happened there. its troublesome that 360 is half the price and still isnt having a better year than the ps3 did last year. expect less consoles sold than ps3 08 without price reduction. (and we all know how doomed the ps3 was)

I hate this half priced crap that PS3 fanboys always use. SONY decided to load the PS3 with features like Online and Wifi and HDD while MS gives you the option. So its SONYs fault. I love how for the PS2 AMericas was  huge region now the PS3 is still less that half of 360.

And now the gap has been reduced to only being outsold by 50k. YEA!!! Only 8 660 000 consoles behind in Americas. PS3 FTW!!!!

Whether you love it or hate it, Max is right.  The 360 is half the price of the PS3 and it is underperforming in sales.   

 



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

how does being the successor to the PS2 change the fact that the 360 is selling poorly considering its price

dude you need to really wake up from your MS trip. noone said it wasnt sonys fault but price is definatly a factor. if it werent than the ps3 would be constantly outselling the 360 week in week out like it was doing handily (by a wider margin than the 360 is doing right now) last year before 360 recieved a price reduction. and those options you are talking about arent for the best intrest to the consumer but a way for MS to nickle and dime them when they find out they need that extra shit to play online or not go through batteries so often
