Which will sell @ $199.99 first ?

The situation won't remain static, you figure it out. ;)

The next MS machine will launch before the PS3 even gets a whiff of second place and at that point the 360 will be $149.99.

And you actually think that would be a good move by Microsoft? God I sure hope you don't. I see a HUGE backlash from 360 gamers if they actually release a new console that soon.

2011/2012 too soon ?

FYI, Activison once stated that the 360 would outsell the PS3 and be the top selling console this gen. Now they are switching and saying the same thing EA said.

Personally, I dont care which sells the most, I am going where the games are for me, which is the PS3.

The PS3 will pass the 360 before then.

I just like playing the game but really doesn't matter.

Like I said, the situation won't remain static, with big games and price adjustments coupled with holiday sales for both - umm Yeah, trying to predict future sales is a crap shoot at best.

IMHO, the 360 pro has only dropped $50.00 in all this time, MS holds the Aces. :)

[QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"]Xbox 360 will outsell the PS3 in overall sales by the end of the generation - why? Because I would expect within a year, a new Xbox will be announced. And, just before the PS3 outsells the Xbox 360 - Microsoft will release the next generation system - in which they would declare the Xbox 360 victor over the PS3 since that generation is over (between X360 and PS3).FFXIII360

If a new Xbox comes out so will a new PS and then a new Nintendo when people figure out that the Wii sucks for games just like a bunch of other Nintendo consoles

I think Sony will stick with their 10y plan. Think about it, MS is expected to release a new xbox sooner than later, but doing so might send the wrong message to developers given their history of small cycles. If they don't announce it, given the thrend for the past year or so, 360 could lose a lot of marketshare to Ps3 and Wii.

Medium and small developers don't have millions to spend in R&D, licensing and devkits and can't afford 5-6 year cycles. Longer cycles provide more stead ground for them.

Or maybe my crystal ball is broken.

Who cares what Activision thinks! they dropped the ball when they decided to go with Spyro, Ice age game instead of brutal legend, ghostbusters, WiC and others.

and overpricing/delaying Rock band in Europe and Australia, and making Rock band 2 timed-exclusive to 360.

That no one will buy. I'd just play my 360 and wait till the 720 drops 5 times in price.

I think Activision is close with their PS3 numbers (i doubt the 360 will sell 6m for the rest of the year). But the PS3 will be overtaking the 360 in lifetime sales in Q2, 2009.

Good point, ps3 already marked theirs down by 30% just after their first year. If MS ever makes a huge price cut like that I would put money on a huge spike in sells.

Yeah i think that too, by the end of the year PS 3 will out sell xbox360Lord_Laborao

No cows still use sales to determine who's going to win, hence they always mention PS1 sold the most, Ps2 sold the most, so they think ps3 will aswell, therefor making it better

The Xbox 360 is nothing like the first Xbox and I wouldn't call one console a history

[QUOTE="bball_freak_2"][QUOTE="Shade340"][QUOTE="rocoswav"]

[QUOTE="hopesfall2own"]Well what do you expect when a third (may be exaggerated) that buy it don't even know it plays games, it's the cheapest blu ray player on the market..when you get a decent game lineup call me. Shade340

damage controll is amazing in this post :lol:

first of all i present you with this http://www.cheapstingybargains.com/52991/sony-bdp-s300-ref-high-definition-blu-ray-disc-player-249-shipping/

2nd of all EA makes most of its money of the PS3, what does this mean to you??

3rd where did you get one third from?? were are your numbers coming from?? you have failed miserably sir

He said exaggerated.... I think you fail

Well you can't just pull a number out of your butt and say "might be exagerating a little". We all know more than 2/3s of ps3 owners play games on it.

I might be exaggerating a bit but the 99% of 360 owners have experianced RROD :D Lemmings, does that sound right to you?

I might be exaggerating a bit to when I say that 99% of PS3 owner experience dust building up on there PS3's.:D

Well obviously. I don't clean my consoles,they all gather a bit of dust,just like every object in my house.

So if ps3 only sells 1-2 million more than the 360, it'll still take at least another 2 years to catch up to the 360.
