Forums - Sales - VGChartz needs an urgent recount

Q2 sales up on all hardware. 35m installed PS3 forecast for April 2010.

We've got the latest total for the PS3's worldwide install base.

That total is 27 million as of September 30th. In comparison, 31 million Xbox 360s had been sold worldwide by August 27th and at the end of September there were 56.14 million Wiis around the world.

Unsurprisingly, PS3 sales nearly tripled from this year's first quarter (ending June 30th) to the second (ending September 30th), going from 1.1 million to 3.2 million thanks to the price cut and launch of the Slim.

PSP sales were also up - from 1.3 million to 3 million. PS2 sales scraped up a little from 1.6 million to 1.9 million.

Sony's unit sales predictions for the full year remain steady from July. The company expects to sell 13 million PS3s, 15 million PSPs and 5 million PS2s. That would put installed PS3 at over 35 million come the end of the company's financial year.

THE PS3 DIFFERENCE IS OF ONLY 4 MILLIONS, THATS THE OFFICIAL DIFFERENCE

PS3 WON

You may want to learn to read.

The Xbox 360 has shipped 34 million units in the same time period as the Playstation 3 shipped 27 million. That's a 7 million difference. Not a 4 million difference that your erroneously claiming (using Q2 shipping numbers for the X360 and Q3 shipping numbers for the PS3).



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Not trying to be an asshole but why is it always PS3 fans that do this? They always think that VGChartz and other websites have some hidden plot out against the PS3.

 

I know that most PS3 fans are not like this but its always that 10% that is.

 

OT - well they already explained it.

Just to play devil's advocate this goes for X360 fans too. A thread made recently in fact makes the point, remember the "MS claims 34+ million units sold so VG must suck" and the OP would not listen to reason about that being sold to retailers. Look at the number of fans there that kept claiming the X360 is undertracked and PS3 overtracked. Sad that 10% is on both teams IMO. Just pointing that out not trying to troll you because I don't count you in that evil 10%, in fact your posts are pretty level headed overall.



@robbo918

Yeah its 10% for both 360 and PS3, The thing is there are much more PS3 fans than 360 fans so the loud mouth ones are mainly pro PS3,But there are pro 360 that are just as bad.

Spong is not a news source. They rip off other people's news and they don't even get that right sometimes.



Anyone can guess. It takes no effort to throw out lots of predictions and have some of them be correct. You are not and wiser or better for having your guesses be right. Even a blind man can hit the bullseye.

Wow some serious math fail here!
