Forums - Sales - PS3 will never beat 360 this generation.

People its called progress, Whoever comes second is in a better position to aim for the top.
What happens to all the wii kids who want to upgrade? they're gonna go hd perhaps?

Not really. It was outselling the XBox 360 the first 6 months of 2008 in America. Then we got a price cut on the XBox 360 and it zoomed ahead just like the PS3 is doing right now. When the Elite gets to $199 and the Arcade is at $129 it'll be interesting to see how well each console sells. Microsoft still has a few things up their sleeve, I can guarantee you that. I hope they buy EA and SquareEnix. What a war it will be.

MS buy EA and SE, how can people be so delusional.

Lets argue over which console is going to finish a distant second.........


LOL!! I know, it is kind of funny. PS3 fanboys think the they wil finish 2nd, xBox 360 fanboys thinking their console will in 2nd. In the end, neither console will be FIRST, which is the most important position for console wars.

Last gen I would have agreed. But this gen 2nd and 3rd are doing better IMO. For games that I want anyway.



profit not equal to success if your business model is not sustainable!
wii gonna have to take another big risk they cant stay like this. They will be beaten.

Gamecube was profitable, not succesfull
Wii is super profitable, has staying power, but for how long, facts are facts sales are declining especially in japan, and europe YOY



If PS3 outsold 360 in world sales,it would be "Well its getting its ass kicked in the americas", when it outsells it in the americas also it will be "Microsoft let the 360 go, it's really a better machine but they have moved on to the XBox 520 and the 360 generation is old news, PS3 is last gen". All the while never acknowleging the PS3 came out later, had a 1.10th the marketing budget and comes with more features all around.

Trying to convine an XBox fanboi that PERHAPS, MAYBE the PS3 IS IN FACT a better system is like trying to convince Osama Bin Ladin that Christianity is really the way to go

Why is it a bad thing if Xbox 360 gamers won't agree with you? This forum is so disproportionately filled with Sony fanboys as it is. How much more Pro-PS3 do you want it to be? lol.



It already beats the 360 in quality and games. What else is left?

its impossible to know for sure, but I have to say it seems unlikely the PS3 can over turn such a large gap, though, I thought the Slim/price drop wouldnt have had so much effect, so you may wanna disregard this, lol



Wow…in scanning the sales charts for third party software, it’s amazing that the 360 is only console to deliver sales of 5 million plus to 3rd party developers, with the exception of GTA 4 on the PS3. I think this holiday season is going to add a few more to that list, but if I’m a 3rd party developer, I’m definetly considering that in factoring how I develop games. As long as developers see this, they will continue to produce games that buyers will want on the 360...it's far more cost effective to develop for the 360 than the PS3, and that's a strong advantage in it's court. I suspect it's only going to get easier to develop for the Xbox line in the future, making it a harder challenge.

I don't know whether or not to believe you. You have defected to both sides before. You were all over the 360, now it's the PS3. Lawd.

OT: Second place never looked so sweet.
