Forums - Sales Discussion - Same point in time: PS3 3.5 million sales ahead of X360

http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=Wii&reg1=All&cons2=PS3&reg2=All&cons3=X360&reg3=All&weeks=156

PS3 is ahead of X360 by 3.5 million consoles from launch. PS3 is selling more systems than X360. It is only a matter of time PS3 will overtake X360 when PS3 console  price reaches optimal mass market penetration point of $299 and below.

PS3 has sold on average around 120 000 more consoles per month than XBox 360 for first 29 months of their lives on the market. Around 30k more PS3s sold every week than X360. PS3 will well and truly outsell XBox 360 and claim second place in console wars. PS3 outselling X360 by 20% more systems in same point in time comparison.

We have to bear in my PS3 has not had a real price cut yet. The PS3 price was reduced back in 2007 two times due to PS3 system modifications.

The Ps3 isn't competing with the X360 of 2008, it's competing with the X360 of 2009.

That is VGChartz LONGEST review. And it's NOT Cute Kitten DS

I never understood something. Maybe you can explain...

Does one feel good when they have reasons which help justify the fact that ones favourite console is in last place saleswise?



Im glad the ps3 is beating the 360 of the past. Too bad it cant beat the 360 of the present



I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

So what's the Wii's marketshare with aligned launches, I wonder...

I knew it was beating the 360 in the fourth dimension already...



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

Oh come on! Just click the bloody link! (It's even in your avatar! Wait... No)

 

Wii: 49M

PS3: 21.5M

X360: 18M

 

55.3%.

I don´t think that line of thinking is given much importance as far as devs/publishers/execs are concerned...they see 'the now', a 8.2 million lead over the PS3.



The Xbox 360 was out a full year before the PS3 so of course the sales will be higher. People really need to think about that before bashing the ps3.

 

I mean how many of those xbox sales include people who had to rebuy them because the xbox failed. At one time wasn't the failure rate 33%

 

Not to mention the price difference that has always been between the ps3 and xbox.

 

If you want to talk about sales, look what the Wii is doing to both, Xbox had a year on that too and the Wii is just smashing Xbox in sales week after week, same with PS3.

 

If you take off the first year of sales for the Xbox 360, what are the numbers from the time the PS3 came out and on with the xbox, i bet their isn't a huge gap.

I did this right after I posted that. I just didn't want to do the math.

Same point in time: Wii beating up the HD twins combined.
