Yeah, but what he said was right. Chances are, the PS3 will sell more this year. Even with a slim increase, it is just not on the same level, especially with 150k in Japan, compared with about 2k for the last few weeks. The long term effects will be more interesting, but Gran Turismo 5 and FF XIII will be enough to let the PS3 beat the 360 this year. The holiday season is starting, the start of September is a great time for a price cut and new model, and I really do think the PS3 will win this year, even if it does not erode the gap down much |
Looking at it that way it makes more sense but I still think some people are predicting things way too early, noone knows how the slim will keep selling for the next few weeks and months, something like this (slim release) has never been done at this stage of a generation before, hard to know what to expect from all three console makers...

You know Kowenicki was willing to bet that the 360 would outsell the slim in UK and NA. Someone should ask him now and see what his reaction is.

Since the PS3 has been domed the forums have mainly been focusing on "best ever..." threads and graphics threads, oh... and IGN sucks threads. Nice to see the main talking point is back on sales. |
Oh sorry, it's so much better now that we have like a dozen of threads on PS3 sales... whatever I think the weekly charts comment sections are still the best place to talk about numbers imo.
| leo-j said: @Carl Kowenicki was going crazy posting graphs when that "UK 600K 360 vs 300k WII" data came out |
I dont remember that... but is he even online?
Wait for MikeB to make a thread again, im sure he will pop up somewhere.

Yeah it looks as though the PS3 will finally outsell the 360 YTD. It was very close in 2007 while 2008 was not so close, but this year it finally will.

And what is it with people in this thread saying the 360 is like the Dreamcast, the 360 is NOTHING like the Dreamcast, the 360 isn't a failure and is still selling at a very good pace, incase you forgot the 360 was up 40% last week again and is still the ONLY console up year on year for overall yearly sales,
32 million sales does NOT equal the Dreamcast, and don't forget the ps3 slim has sold well for one week, one week! a bit early saying things like this don't you think?

It's stuff like this that creates all the fanboyism hate on this site.
People will remember stuff like this, and if/when the PS3 falls back down, it will come back to bite them in the ass.
Much like whats happened at least 4 times already with 360 and ps3 flip flopping every 6 months.

In that case, I need to buy a Xbox ASAP. ;)
