That would be a dream come true: "X360 outsells PS3 3 to 1 in UK."
Lol I would not go that far but I believe the XBox 360 will marginally outsell the PS3 in both UK and US over Xmas sales period. The 360 still has the price advantage over the PS3 and Microsoft will maintain its dominance in the markets it controls through viral marketing, bundling and discounting 360 consoles.
Europe and Japan regions would be a landslide sales victory for PS3 over the X360 due to people being brainwashed by Sony brand name in those regions.


So if you buy a 360 you are smart and can think for yourself, but if you buy a PS3 you are brainwashed?

Umm... yeah, i'll just leave it at that.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

It says Xmas on the header, which we know wont happen. What's going to be so so different for 360 that it will cause a shift like that? Left 4 Dead 2?... Lol, this is funny... last year, we'd be saying the exact opposite.

Explain?

 

360 Wifi Adaptor - $100

2 years of gold - $100 (Maybe more if this gen goes part 2012)

Energizer batteries- $50

The gas to buy those Energizer batteries- $100 (every month)

Battle toads pre order - $5

 

 

Thats well over $500 right there, while the cheapest PS3 is only $300.

 

You sir need to do your math. Good Day!

Its an affiliate style voucher site...
Maybe they had some good 360 deals.

Definitely nothing to shout about.

i know your joking but the 360 Elite is £199 and the PS3 is £249. The 360 is getting some good Bundle loving at the moment as well. An example of this is £199 for Forza 3 and MW2 (EDIT: and obviously a 360 elite)



Reasonable on 24 November 2009

Wait, you're saying people going to a discount site tend to buy the cheaper option?

Might be true ratio for this retailer, doesn't tell us squat how the overall performance is going to go.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Actually, what's more amusing is the subtext that if you're American you buy 360 'cause you know it's really the best while if you're a lowly European or Japanese gamer you don't know anything.
