man i wish the ps3 would hurry up and take second place so these poor souls will feel better about themselves already.

it seems really important to them and i don't like seeing people in this kind of distress.

it may be just a small victory in the scheme of things but if somebody needs that to be happy then i wish them the best of luck on it.

I think theyre selling better overall for the year. I do think that PS3 is going to overtake 360 eventualy. When is the real question. and if that is even going to matter. Both consoles have done great this gen. i wouldnt consider either 360 or PS3 a failure at this point.

Not taking sides, but it's only a matter of time before the PS3 will overtake the Xbox 360. Sure the Xbox 360 is outselling the PS3 in the US, but when you consider the Xbox's poor performance in Japan, and PlayStation land(Europe), it's only a matter of time. Just look at how well the PS3 has caught up to the Xbox 360 since it launched, the X360 had a year head start had what like 10 million units sold it's first year on the market? And now the PS3 is only 2+ million of surpassing the Xbox 360.

This though is attributed to it's poor performance in Japan. While the PS3 isn't doing the best either in Japan it's definitely moving more units there thats for sure.

360 is starting to sell close to 10 k a week in japan. with the wii and ps3 only 25 k a week. i think kinect will put 360 on par with both in sales maybe even put 360 ahead of the other 2 since they been holding out on the 360 for so long.

Before this gen began I said that MS would be Americas choice between the 2 and PS3 would still have Japan. I didnt forsee the wii dominance but that is pretty much the way things are shaping up. XBOX is americas choice.

The xbox 360 ahead in Japan..:P

|  WII  |     22.239  |  865.788  |  10.470.987  |
| PS3 | 19.473 | 794.143 | 5.295.510 |
| 360 | 5.936 | 117.593 | 1.327.265 |

First this ^ is the week ending on july 18.
|  WII  |     21.092  |  886.880  |  10.492.079  |
| PS3 | 19.420 | 813.563 | 5.314.930 |
| 360 | 6.056 | 123.649 | 1.333.321

Week ending on 25 of july.


The one ending on July 2 i think it hasn't come out yet,but that is the one we should post,since you claim the xbox 360 is selling now 10K a week, the PS3 is outselling the
xbox 360 in japan 7 to 1 for this year the middle number is what they have sold this year,the PS3 in japan alone has a bigger lead on the xbox 360 than what the
xbox 360 has world wide.

This is from AMAZON btw. I know this is just AMAZON. But it is kind of interesting that the 360s just came out and the PS3 slim is already outselling the 360.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/videogames/ref=pd_ts_pg_1?ie=UTF8&pg=1

Also the 4gb 360 is sitting at the 60th spot

http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/videogames/ref=pd_ts_pg_3?ie=UTF8&pg=3

I am expecting the 360 to outsell the PS3 in WW sales in August but this AMAZON sales is pretty interesting.

coola426
Pretty sure the PS3 started outselling the 360 worldwide ever since MGS4 released and then especially when the slim/cut came

PS3 keeps going up and up from its worse than slow start. Soon lems will have nothing, less sales, less games, less power, higher cost (live fees).gamebreakerz__

[QUOTE="Chutebox"][QUOTE="NotTarts"]

Ah, alright. I had old figures. Still, the Xbox 360 S had only had 12 days of sales at June 30 (and hadn't even been released in AU, NZ, or EU), so it's possible the gap is wider.

gamebreakerz__

I don't think it will get wider, I think it will slow down the Ps3 rise though.

I live in NZ and it's PS3 land over here and I think AU is similar (could be wrong) so don't expect much of a change.

so your personal observations are fact?

Over here in ireland the PS3 has clearly taken over where as only two years ago the 360 was king. Its noticable when you go to any game store now that the ps3's section has become bigger and more sales come from there.

the numbers will come out and prove my point, you are acting like the new 360 slim is only doing well in the United States, its doing excellent in Europe as well, but when the numbers start to widen, ill let you know, keep on wishing that the PS3 will overtake the 360 in sales....

You're the one that seems insecure and delusion tbh. It shows in your style of writing. Which one do you see more in stores and which one do you see more in homes? PS3 slim or 360 slim?

i think people are forgetting about GT5 and the power behind it, i mean GT4 was on the #1 list for weeks and seeing that 3 million people bought the demo "GT5 PROLOGUE" alone, this is going to be shorten the gap alot. Now people say halo reach, wouldn't people who love halo already have one? Unless they have to rush out and buy the bundle. Also we got little big planet 2 around the corner also and thats aimed towards casuals and hardcore and i'm sure its going to sell some systems. So we shall see but again don' t count out Little big planet 2 or Gran turismo 5, two heavy hitters, while microsoft is banking on halo and, so we shall see.

Ok even though it in no way interestes me it's obvious the GT franchise is pretty big and GT5 will sell consoles but LBP2 as a console seller is wishful thinking at best.

Sales-wise sales are better for the PS3, but overall, the 360 is ahead, we all know that. ;)

Too bad NPD doesn't use Amazon in their numbers. Quite the travesty since it is the largest online retailer. That is why I only look at the announced shipped numbers from the manf. to really know how well a system is selling.

Worldwide the 360 has outsold the PS3 for the past 6 weeks in a row and has outsold the Wii the last 4 of 5 weeks. Just sayin.

VladJasonDrac

Where are you getting your worldwide numbers? According to MS and Sony's own financial reports, worldwide, the PS2 (Yes, I said 2) outsold the 360 in the last quarter.

lol..

That article is a joke without any evidence,in fact is so retarded the second market is not Japan is EU which UK is part of dude,man people will post anything without actually knowing in order to make their console of choice look better.

In fact EU has been the second biggest market for some time now,very close to US and some say it may even take out US as the number 1 market,UK is part of EU and is like the only place in EU where the xbox 360 actually beast the PS3,which is why people say EU is sony land.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_2#Sales

This should give you and idea of how big EU is compare to japan,sony sold more than double the PS2 on EU that on Japan,UK is just a part of many of EU.

Japan 21 million (as of October 1, 2008)[26] March 4, 2000 North America 50 million (as of December 2008)[27] October 26, 2000 Europe 48 million (as of May 6, 2008)[28] November 24, 2000 Worldwide At least 143.8 million (as of March 31, 2010) [1][2]

N/A

lol, you diss my article then post one from wikipedia, the site anybody can EDIT to make there console look better,my article was just one of many, all of them stating the same thing, why don't you google it and check fot yourself, either way, the 360 is outselling the Ps3 in the US and The UK, blighty is MS territory now, deal with , oh , and bringing the Ps2 into this is off topic, please try and stay on topic dude.

[QUOTE="Santesyu"][QUOTE="gamebreakerz__"]PS3 keeps going up and up from its worse than slow start. Soon lems will have nothing, less sales, less games, less power, higher cost (live fees).gamebreakerz__
I think the time microsoft sees the ps3 really outpacing the 360 they will probably come out with another console, Ive been thinking this and hope they don't but entirely possible. That is if of course kinect fails which I don't see happening

MS would be dumb to release a new console very early because it would allow Sony to wait a few years and easily make something far more powerful than the new console. Unless of course they go Nintendo's way and target primarily the casuals, in which case power = nothing.

dumb? if they released a new console in nov 2011, thats 6 years after 360, a perfectly good time to do so. And it would be great to get consumers interested in the next gen, therefore people not buying the ps3 in anticipation for the PS4. And when PS4 comes out, they will essentially launch into last place :)

u neglect that LIVE is superior to PSN........

also i think, given Sonys rich history in the gamign industry, that its taking THIS long to overtake 360 and take not 1st place, but 2nd.

its downright embarassing for Sony and the fans that support them.

Micorosoft need a quick slap back to reality. They won nothing, all the marketshare they've stolen this gen is looking like it's on it's way back to Sony.

What will MS have next gen? Will fans run to stores to buy them off the shelves with the PS4 released at the same time?

[QUOTE="gamebreakerz__"][QUOTE="Santesyu"] I think the time microsoft sees the ps3 really outpacing the 360 they will probably come out with another console, Ive been thinking this and hope they don't but entirely possible. That is if of course kinect fails which I don't see happening ZuneHD

MS would be dumb to release a new console very early because it would allow Sony to wait a few years and easily make something far more powerful than the new console. Unless of course they go Nintendo's way and target primarily the casuals, in which case power = nothing.

dumb? if they released a new console in nov 2011, thats 6 years after 360, a perfectly good time to do so. And it would be great to get consumers interested in the next gen, therefore people not buying the ps3 in anticipation for the PS4. And when PS4 comes out, they will essentially launch into last place :)

It'd fracture the console market. Publishers wouldnt want to put in extra money to make games take advantage of the new hardware when there are already 3 huge consoles on the market. MS' first party is weak enough with the ONE xbox, whatwould they have to sell another one?

Micorosoft need a quick slap back to reality. They won nothing, all the marketshare they've stolen this gen is looking like it's on it's way back to Sony.

What will MS have next gen? Will fans run to stores to buy them off the shelves with the PS4 released at the same time?

-Snooze-

um ya......they won plenty. compared to last gen, they got more sales, more 3rd party support, and way more profit then with xbox 1.

Sony went from 70% marketshare with PS2 to.....................:lol:

And i seriosuly doubt they will launch at the same time. realistically, MS will get another head star. And if their product is actually reliable, they will have a good brand situation and will make it even harder for PS4 to catch up. PS4 WILL launch into last place :P sad really

They will have upscaled ports of 360/ps3 games, PC ports, and the odd 3rd party timed exclusive (will release on PS4 when it launches later).

lol MS can keep busy for a year just fine. While Sony launches into last place

That article is a joke without any evidence,in fact is so retarded the second market is not Japan is EU which UK is part of dude,man people will post anything without actually knowing in order to make their console of choice look better.

In fact EU has been the second biggest market for some time now,very close to US and some say it may even take out US as the number 1 market,UK is part of EU and is like the only place in EU where the xbox 360 actually beast the PS3,which is why people say EU is sony land.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_2#Sales

This should give you and idea of how big EU is compare to japan,sony sold more than double the PS2 on EU that on Japan,UK is just a part of many of EU.

Japan 21 million (as of October 1, 2008)[26] March 4, 2000 North America 50 million (as of December 2008)[27] October 26, 2000 Europe 48 million (as of May 6, 2008)[28] November 24, 2000 Worldwide At least 143.8 million (as of March 31, 2010) [1][2]

And which of those PC ports is a system seller? None of them. Games like Risen aren't going to sell a console ...

You think Sony would be dumb enough to release late? the only reason they released after the Xbox was cause of a problem with blu-ay and even after releasing a year later (18 months for europe) huge price tag, no games AND competition from the Wii it's still going to outsell the 360.

Sad really how well MS started and how poor they've become over the past 2 years.

Lol were talking about a consoles first year on the market. it sells itself on being new alone. all im saying is MS has plenty ways to secure games.

Sony really surpised a lot of us this gen by showing how dumb they can be :P

Sad? they are again making more profit then last gen, they have way more sales then last gen, and have way more develoepr support.

Its sad just how far sony fell from the top. the fact that your content with them taking 2nd place eventually" just shows how far the standards have been lowered.

lol keep it coming, this is fun.

[QUOTE="gamebreakerz__"]PS3 keeps going up and up from its worse than slow start. Soon lems will have nothing, less sales, less games, less power, higher cost (live fees).ZuneHD

u neglect that LIVE is superior to PSN........

also i think, given Sonys rich history in the gamign industry, that its taking THIS long to overtake 360 and take not 1st place, but 2nd.

its downright embarassing for Sony and the fans that support them.

No is not superior is just have a few things over it,like cross game chat,but lack others like Youtube upload the PS3 has,the core gameplay what matter is basically the same.

Yeah tell me how much did the last console that started retailing for $600 sold in units,the PS3 is been sell now for $300 and is 4 years old,by its 4th birthday the PS2 was $149 or less,and the PS1 as well.

Hell i would have love to see the xbox 360 retail for $600 dollars on 2005,MS would have by now like 20 million unites less easy,hell it has sold more than the original xbox,the GC and N64 while release for more than double the price and in some instances even triple,sony has done great if you ask me with such a high price no other company would have do that,but then again didn't MS beat Nintendo last gen.?

And this gen they started first and are close to end 3rd,sounds like a sepmtember 1999 deja vu.

my point still stands, the 360 s has increased sales of the 360 significantly,which was the whole point of my post which YOU chose to ignore, wether you like the article or not, it's better than some random fanboy statement, lets just say i am wrong about the UK being the 2nd largest gaming region, doesn't change the fact that 360 sales have increased significantly in the US and the UK since MS released the 360 S ,like it or lump it, in the UK and US the 360 is killing the Ps3 in sales, and it's probably the same in europe,i can't prove that but you cannot prove otherwise.

Maybe that is the reason why the PS3 outsold the xbox 360 world wide,because UK is far bigger than the rest right.? And is the reason why the PS3 also sold more games as well because UK is so big that make out for all the rest of EU.

Where do people get this silly notion that the UK is in itself a bigger gaming region than the totality of continental Europe?

But i did not say the sales did not increase in those territorys,in fact those are the product of a price cut that took place for older models,hell didn't that happen with the PS3 as well when sony slashed the price of the fatter PS3.? But sales get back to normal is not like the xbox 360 will continue to outsell both the Wii and PS3 every month dude,once the old models are pick clean sales woudl be back to normal.

I actually don't care where sony finishes. I dont own a PS3. I own an Xbox thank you very much :)

I do however feel that much like sony before them, MS need a reality check. MS dominating the early stages of this gen led sony to create some excellent new IPs in order to lure in customers whilst MS havbe just purchases timed exclusives (poor ones) and timed DLC(Terrible idea)

MS started this gen with the need to impress and they did, the creation of Xbox Live 2.0, titles like Kameo, Gears etc. They've become stale lately, content with coasting until the end of the gen. If that's what YOU want from a console manufacturere then fair enough. I just expect more :)
