Forums - Sony Discussion - honestly now ... how close will the gap get?

jneul on 27 December 2009

I think the gap is going to dissappear by christmas 2010, PS3 is going to take over big time in sales in 2010. Bold prediction but there you go.

Edit: it has lots of exclusives in 2010 which will push more sofware sales, for example GT5 and GOWIII should give it a nice increase and that is just the begginning.



it's the future of handheld

I don't think the PS3 will ever catch the 360, but the gap will shrink nonetheless.

I think that the PS3 will outsell the 360 eventually, but that might be sometime next gen, It's gonna be the 10 year life cycle that dose it!

This could all change at any time depending on what games come out and who drops the price lowest, I wouldn't say that the PS3 has NO chance of beating the 360, in fact I think it probably will in due course, but by then it may not mean so much.

This is where I dont understand ps3 fanboys.Look at what a price cut did for 360 last year,look at what a price cut did for ps3 this year,when the 360 most likely gets a price cut next year,why wont their be momentum shifting 360s way?I also just dont see microsoft letting the ps3 pull ahead this gen,they have too many weapons at their disposal.


You think MS will do $100 price cuts in 3 consecutive years? You're crazy. They MAY have a $50 price cut this year, MAYBE. Sony could counter that, though, so it'd be useless.

I think by April/May the gap will be within 1 million.

MAG, Heavy Rain, GoW3, GT5, WKC, Yakuza 3 and ModNation Racers all in the first 3 months of 2010...

The gap will be the same as when the ps3 launched 5.5 million. In 3 years the ps3 has not gained any ground on the xbox 360.

You are very very Wrong.

MarketShare =/= Gap.

If Nokia sells 10kk cells a year and has 50% of marketshare. And Sansung sells 5kk a year and has 25% of marketshare.

In a certain point of time, Nokia will be selling 15kk a year, however Samsung 10kk. The gap is still the same, but Samsung is actually pretty close here.

 

I should have just ignored your post. You sure don`t have common sense.

If I were sony after losing BILLIONS of dollars and coming close to breaking even next year,I would not drop the price any further,wait till 2011.The only time microsoft cut the price of a xbox 100$ was this year ant that was the elite,a price cut of any sort and the 360 will boost greatly in the US and everywhere else.

I dont want to start a war with you but Im sorry I think your blind.

What? They cut the Elite $100 this year, and last year the dropped all of their models' prices. Are you sure you're not the blind one?

If Natal fails to spur demand, the Playstation 3 console will outsell the Xbox360 by June 2011.



Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

Im not shur if you understood me,im saying the xbox has never had a price cut of 100$ before untill the elite got one this year.Im saying ANY pricecut and the 360 will begin to outsell ps3 simple as that and for some reason if that doesnt work than microsoft will bleed cash again to stay ahead,next gen will be very interesting because I believe it will be the first gen where it will go side to side on whos ahead between the 2.
