And which ever way you slice it, PlayStation brand is in much better posision than Xbox brand

I have a very strange feeling your actually being serious?!?!?


Where should i start? Sales? marketshare? bigger franchises? In every way PlayStation wins

Momentum?

lol, you are completely wrong, aren't you?

....or am I wrong?

Does the PLAYSTATION BRAND have more momentum than the 360 brand?

Is the 360 brand doing better than last gen, or worse?

Is the PS3 brand doing better than last gen, or worse?

MOMENTUM.

That said, the Playstation brand is at best "tied" with the MS brand is static consumer standing right now. Thinking that the PS brand is a much more massive force COMPARED to the Xbox brand, this generation, in home consoles, is the result of either brainwashing or ignorance. In America, the Xbox brand is significantly, SIGNIFICANTLY more popular this gen, and even in Japan, the Playstation brand is a distant second to Nintendo.

You are absolutely wrong, sir. Do you disagree?

"Sales?"

The 360 and the Wii consistantly outsell the PS3 and are vastly ahead in userbase.

"Marketshare?"

The PS3 is in last place, as far as marketshare. Vastly.

"Bigger franchises?"

Check the sales. The only franchise that Sony has, that matters, compared to a Nintendo franchise, is Gran Turismo. Otherwise, Sony franchise sales suck, compared to sales of games like Gears, Halo, Mario Kart, Zelda, and pretty much any damn thing.

Also, Sony has lost a VAST amount of brand associated franchises this gen, from Tekken, to DMC, to GTA, to Final Fantasy. Sony's big franchises took a mass exodus to the Xbox 360.

You sir, are 100 percent, provably, and undeniably wrong.

LOL,i was talking about PLAYSTATION not PS3 and i was looking at the big picture not just this gen

 

1.Sales ( without including PSP or PS1 )

PS3 + PS2 = Over 150 million sold OR if you like to include this generation only PS3 +PSP = over 60 million sold

 

Xbox + Xbox 360 = Over 50 million sold

 

PlayStation brand usually sells over 200k every week Xbox brand usually sells 160k every week

 

2.Marketshare

Out of 200 million consoles sold this gen, PlayStation sold over 60 million, Xbox brand sold 30 million

 

3.Franchises

Just Gran Turismo alone outsells Halo and Gears Of War franchises together, so your logic fails again. And those franchises you mentioned there were NEVER SONY's franchises, they were 3rd party franchises, pleas get yor facts straight before you get into argument.

 

 

 

So, by having more consoles/handhelds on market, selling more hardware per week, having stronger franchises, PlayStation brand is in much better posision than Xbox brand which lost about 6 billion for Microsoft. I think the Nextbox will probably be the Lastbox

@ blade of Gold

PS Brand is bleeding badly coz it has a huge wound---> PS3

until its patched (ie price cut), it will continue to bleed

Honestly you should compare relevant facts ie ps3 vs 360, ds vs psp, it provides more accurate analysis.

Xbox brand is bleeding badly coz it has a huge wound---> Xbox brand + RROD

 

Until its patched ( ie RROD fixed ) it will continiue to bleed

 

I was comparing Xbox and PlayStation not just 360 and PS3 and i didnt even mentioned Nintendo

Sony has projected losses for next year also but keep in mind that they have several divisions... not just video games. Let's come back to this thread after E3 and the new topic will be... "PS3 on the rise."

Using SDF's arguments will only make you look silly.

OMG.  This thread is about the PS3 not the playstation brand. Are you really stupid enough to try and cover your argument with something so weak? Are you seriously that much of a tool that you can't admit you were terribly wrong? Also, FYI, The RROD problem has, for the most part, been solved. Why you continue to exploit an old, worn out argument is beyond me. Lastly, why the hell does it matter so much to you that the PS3 is failing compaired to last gen, and to all other major consoles this gen? Why are you willing to put your reputation and sorry excuse for credability on the line to protect a gaming system?
