last week same thing happened, 360 outsells by like 16k and the gap closes intead of widen slightly? this week it was like 11k in favor of 360 and now the gap closed back to 8 million flat?....



Around the Network

@dcIKeeL, the 360 was over-tracked for more then a month, not just one week.



how come 360 sold only 11k more this week when its half the price of ps3, when al things are taken into consideration ie price.........360 is doing very poorly..............@squill can u change ur sig plz as my ps3 browser takes ages to display page when u r posting, cheers lol

Fixed.

If you take out Japan and just look at the western markets the difference is 27%. So whilst Sony gets an automatic bonus from Japan, once thats gone the actual gap starts to make sense. Im not trying to take Japan and make it a lesser market, its more understanding why the gap is as much as it is to better predict future sales.

 



Tease.

By now it might, I would assume that most of the console that were sitting on shelves 1 1/2 months ago have been moved

Megalol.. I occasionally check the codes on the 360 bundles in shops here and the dates still vary from 082305 to 083905. Curiously one shop had a small shipment with 09 data.. (the PS3 was equally, if not more, overstocked for Xmas period)
