The world is theirs, the other 2 just live in it.

Wow ps3 outsold xbox by 850k'ish worldwide in december, 6 or 7 more months like that and this and it will be caught up to the xbox. Even after xbox had a year head start. It's offical ps3 sold more units per month worldwidesince launch than xbox has. Now xbox can't even win in it's strongest market. Stick a fork in it, xbox is done. How's the crow tasting lemmings?

[QUOTE="surrealnumber5"]i cant wait for some charts and numbers for total software salesnhh18

It already passed the 2.5 million a long time ago :P, i think by now its close to 3 million

The king has retured. Major beatdownby theTREY over the 360. PS3 probably would have completely destroyed the 360 if it wasn't for major PS3 shortagesand 360 replacement buys (RROD and Microsoft banning those accounts) ! But with that being said , 360 is still DEAD LAST for the month anyway where it belongs. TREY 4 LI4E!

Sales matter people.

Oh snap. Looks like PS3 will be catching up to the 360 within the next few months with that hugemargin of a victory :roll:

Haha, Wii just completely shattered the PS2 record by over 700k. This is beast.

Who cares, they catered to different markets. Wii is a casual system while PS2 was had a little bit of everything. Congrats to Nintendo, but I hope they change their strategy next gen because the Wii honestly doesn't deserve this kind of success.

More sales doesn't mean superior console?

A long time ago many nations supported slavery. Does that make it good?

Just cause the ps3 outsold the xbox 360 does not make it a better console.

Your not taking in the consideration of the intelligence of the consumer and the reason WHY they bought a ps3.

Maybe they got YLOD? LUL

Where are the European numbaz!!? :o

ToScA-

The PS3 has already pasted the 360 in EUROPE despite the 16 month difference in launch dates.

Ontopic

Wow at Wii and NSMBW :o

And the PS3 outsold the 360 by 50k, i was expecting it to be the other way around :P

Yeah I've seen that. However, that doesn't take into account the pricedrops and price reconfiguration of PS3 and 360 respectively. Let alone the holiday season.

If it doesn't take into account the price drops and price reconfiguration, why did the PS3 get a massive spike in the second chart around the time the slim came out?

Also, it might not include the holidays, but going by how (according to this chart) the PS3 has outsold the 360 for pretty much for the past 3 years, logic would say that it continued that trend through the holidays. No?

You're absolutely right. I was under the impression that the charts were from early September. The link above suggest otherwise.

Wow at them Wii number!

Congrats Nintendo!

After the Gamecube, I never dreamed that the Wii would ever sell so well. Yet year after year though it has continued to sell very well. I'm happy to see Nintendo doing so strongly.

Yes this does make sense, but lets look at the launch dates of both. Xbox had a year head start and now can barely hold their own in their best terrirtory? If the console war ended in a few months it would be a victory for ps3. Xbox had no competition in terms of mature next gengamers for a full year and yet still have sold less units per month of existance than ps3? Thats a huge and epic failure in my book

[QUOTE="mrgreen108"]

[QUOTE="mythrol"] Let's follow this path. Let's say the PS3 and 360 are tied in the US / EU (some months the 360 wins out, some the PS3) and the PS3 continues to outsell the 360 in Japan by an average of 300k units a month. We already know that the PS3 is around the 31 million unit mark and the 360 at the 39 million mark (Microsoft announced this at CES 2010). It's still take over 2 years for the PS3 to just CATCH UP to Microsoft (27 months). And that's assuming Microsoft does nothing to try and boost 360 sales, as well as assuming Natal has no impact at all on units sold. So sure, In 2 years when the Xbox 720 has already been announced and either launched or about to be launched the PS3 MIGHT catch up.skinny_man_69

No it doesn't, but selling more units per month of existance does equal a victory, and a huge epic fail by ms who had a year of unopposed competition.
