thanks, anyway this is great news, and will definetly continue to grow drastically because of the price drop, we're almost at half of what the 360's current sold number is. Thats pretty good considering the current lack of games and the time fram it took 360 to reach this after launch.We cant really discuss the wii because its dramatically cheaper

hmm, will it hit the 10 million mark until the holidays? my prediction is that the ps3 will be 4 million units behind the 360 at this years end.

i think it will be more like 2 million behind the 360 by holidays. Its already 5 million behind 360 now. Its 3 million behind wii. And most halo fans have 360's already,and the PS3 has a WAY better holiday line-up than any other console( i really mean that,im not biased,i have all 3 systems)

Yeah I think that it will be something between 2-4 million, just to give a wide range.

And that is something really impressive if you take into account all the obstacles it poses to casual gamers: Price, Games, Negative Press.

But this is something that was gonna happen sooner or later, after all it has both Sony and Play Station on its name, thus it carries a lot of brand name to support it.

360 has 14million

so i think PS3 will have 10 million at least (11 milion max) by December and 360 will have 16 million 17 million max.

It'll catch up to 360 next year probably in the 20 millions. Wii is a monster.

WOW whoops, I made a big mistake.

ok 10- 11 million for PS3 by Dec and 13-15 million for 360 (giving them the same amount of growth)

I dont care if it goes to the 360, Im getting it for ps3. Im not waiting an extra few months for it, it might not even be as good on the 360.

4.5 million not bad....not good but not bad.its slowly coming up on its year mark too.Well only as of late has the ps3 outsold the 360.so if can keep this up than who knows.but remember the 60gb was the only model to recieve the price drop.and they are stopping production of it.And i think (not sure) but i remember something about the emotion chip not being in the new ones.So if Sony were to somehow listen and not release th 80gb and just stick with the 60gb for 500 bucks then sales would continue to grow.I mean these sales as of late may be in response to people thinking thats as cheap as it will get so better grab it now.And i dont know about MGS4 going to 360 but if it did i woul dgo with 360 for xbox live.Plane and simple i lobe xbox live.Its awesome and there is no denying it.If PS3 were to step it up (which i wish the did) then well i would get it for PS3.But over all it woul dbe best to own every system because each one brings something different.

I think you guys are selling the 360 short. It's cheaper, has a bigger library of games, and has Halo 3 coming out, which is undeniably the biggest game release on the horizon...

So I dont see the PS3 catching up anytime soon. Not because it wont sell good, only because I dont see the 360 slowing down enough to allow it to catch up...

You're right, Halo 3 is going to be huge. Nothing on the ps3 can stop that, once the Halo 3 frenzy is over... thats when the ps3 has its chance.

You're right, Halo 3 is going to be huge. Nothing on the ps3 can stop that, once the Halo 3 frenzy is over... thats when the ps3 has its chance.

It's funny whensome peoplesay "Omg Halo 3 is crap." If it's crap then why does Halo break so many records at retail? That's a clear indication that theirs millions of people that finds Halo to be amazing. Anyways, you're right Halo 3 can't be stopped..it's just an un-stopable game (i hear so many people online in multiplayer games always talking about Halo 3). I guarantee you Halo 3 will highly boost 360's being sold, which will put Microsoft even further ahead ofSony in units sold. Microsoft's game lineup is just too strong this year, I really think Sony will need to do more than just a price-cut to actually catch up to Microsoft in units sold. I think Sony is starting to get more competitive, but they really gotta get some of their greatgames out soon like Lair. I don't think the PS3 can catch up untilnext yearwiththe release of MGS4. Sony has the best game lineup in 2008..I don't quite know what 360's is!

IGN ran an article about a month ago in regards to the PSP price drop. It showed a drastic increase in sales, as we have seen with the PS3 and roughly 6 weeks after the price drop, sales dropped below their avg. With the firesale of the 60gb system, Sony should see a bump in sales over the next 2-3 months. They are predicting to have over 14 million units sold by March 08, which would be roughly 1.1 million units sold a month from July 07-March 08(Per Sony 4.48 million sold to date)I honestly do not see that happening.

The 360 not slowing down? Where have you been for the past few months? Sales for the 360 have dropped a 60% in the last quarter. Did you think that shipping 11 million defective consoles was not going to affect their sales?

the 11.6 million units is measured as units shipped not sold. So they aren't even that high yet.

As of July 26th, 2007:

Wii: 10 Million Sold

Xbox 360: 8.5-9.5 Million Sold

PS3: 4.5 Million Sold

I'm getting my estimations from Wikipedia and adding more since they are usually as of May-June 2007

My March 08' Predictions:

Wii: 18 Million Sold

Xbox 360: 13 Million Sold

PS3: 10.5 Million Sold if $399 version comes out then 11.5 Million Sold

most lemmings bought 2 or 3 360's because the 1st one died on them... that helps on the "sold" numbers lol

Anyhow, it's cool that Sony got this recent boost in sales, I'm sure they will increase even more by the time the 60GB model ends and they start selling the 80GB at the same price while giving the consumer the chance to buy games like Lair, Warhawk, White Knight Story (my personal favourite), Rock Band, Eye of Judgement, etc... just to keep it in 2007 :)

Xmas this year will be great = more PS3 selling + soon enough MGS4 will come out wich will be the biggest boost of them all.

By mid next year the ammount of PS3 sold should equal the 360 and pass it soon enough ;)

That's a pretty solid number. Does anyone know how well the 360 did in comparison in its initial 9 - 10 months?

I just liked the fact that you just used nexgenwars.com as a reliable website for consoles sold. Everyone and their mother knows for a fact that nexgenwars.com is the most unreliable source for consoles sold.

i think it will be more like 2 million behind the 360 by holidays. Its already 5 million behind 360 now. Its 3 million behind wii. And most halo fans have 360's already,and the PS3 has a WAY better holiday line-up than any other console( i really mean that,im not biased,i have all 3 systems)

FireFalkon

the 360 already sold 12 million units already, didn't it? PS3 sales are taking off now but i don't see 8 million more units being sold until the holidays

SHIPPED does not mean SOLD. Microsoft had SHIPPED 12 million consoles by March(I believe). That does not mean they have SOLD 12 million.

LOL this is so funny PS3 as not sold 4.5 million consoles. Its only sold 3.8 million consoles. And Xbox 360 as sold over 11.6 million consoles.

Here is the link to prove it. http://www.nexgenwars.com/

Next time when posting a Topic about how much a consoles as sold. Please get the facts Right and not wrong.

zappa02

so what makes nextgenwars the place for sales figures? because they increment the amounts every minute? they have no clue how many consoles have been sold. they just have a timer that goes off every minute that increments all the numbers. how is that accurate?

you lose all credibility when you try to use that website as fact. everybody knows this.

the 360 has not been selling well for the past 6 months due to them stuffing the channels with their stock at the end of last year to hit their 10 million target.

but whatever the case... Halo 3, regardless of what you think about the quality of the game, is the biggest selling console franchise that will boost sales like no other game.

Due to the fact that microsoft xbox has sold only 25 milions (in almost 7 years), I can not see the 360 reaching the 15 milions mark so soon!!!!

but you have to think, how many of those 8 million Halo fans(close to the sales of Halo 2) already have 360s? I think a great majority of them already have a 360. So while the game will probably be the highest selling game ever, I don't think it will sell as many consoles as everybody thinks.

erm... not much of a chance to be the best selling game ever... unless everyone who owns an X360 buys the game 4times...

here you go guys...
