I don't understand. Why are people fighting for second place?

Because for the first time ever the 1st place console is extremely disappointing.

To you maybe.  I guess that's why opinions are like assholes... everyone's got one.

Fighting for second place is hard.
Not only you have to beat the others but at the same time lose to someone else.
That's like... fighting 2 fronts just to be in the second place.

Yeah, I'm clearly alone in my thinking. When this gen comes to an end the Wii will be known for having the strongest library.

it is just too ealry to take final note

to study something you have to study variation

we have seen 1 : price cut : big boost in sales NOTED

lets study another : after the price cut :

slow decrease in sales ?
big decrease in sales ?
at which level it stabilizes ?

when we have those informations (well, after TGS, Forza2, Halo ODST release for example)
then we could take good conclusion



Time to Work !

when will it happen... just so i can make a note...

@psrock

the 360 will be outselling the PS3 in the Uk again within 6 weeks... want to bet me big man?

Don't you get it , I DON'T CARE. The PS3 selling well and 3rd party giving it games is what matters to me. I have already accepted 3rd place. I am an American, it's 1st place or nothing. I don't fight to be second.


WTF?

Stop being so arrogant please. Fighting for all or nothing is not American. Believe me, I am German.

Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

Atleast the PS3 and 360 have managed to hold half the market. The N64 and Gamecube were practically obscure compared to the success of Playstation consoles.

With all the games coming, I can't see the Ps3 sales going back to how they were.

The sales might not decrease to the previous abysmally low levels, but I doubt the games are going to be a major component of that. It will be the price of the hardware that prevents such an occurence. 

Did Sony secure 2nd place this generation? No.

I think the 360 will outsell the PS3 in the UK in weekly sales at some point between week ending 12th Sept and week ending 24th October.

Thats six full weeks following week ending 5th.


Ok week ending 24th October. If the PS3 sells above 55K for the week ending september 5th according to VGC, then the bet is on.
