Sad attempt at damage control. Prediction 4 years in advance=/=Conclusion of international data tracking based on something that HAPPENED ALREADY.

NineTailedGoku

It shows how reliable their predictions can be which is not very reliable. They were not even close at all. Anyways I am done with you till you at least read the article and then have someone explain to you what you just read.

This was not a prediction

This was not a predicition

This was not a prediction

This was a conclusion based on data tracking

This was a conclusion based on data tracking

This was a conclusion based on data tracking

Do you understand now?

Still not seeing what the difference is between that chart and the article that this thread is about. They do not have official numbers from Sony or Microsoft so the predicted what those numbers would be by their internal tracking just like they predicted what the numbers would be by their internal tracking in 2008 which was insanely wrong.

LOL @ Lems trying to pass this off as a mere "prediction" or "forecast" This is the same people that revel in NPD numbers. Just sad guys, God forbid your precious 360 gets outsold smh.

Eddie-Vedder

lol, why do sales mean so much to you that you need to start telling yourself that predictions are better than official numbers? you sure take sales way too seriously.

You mean the official numbers that put the PS3 ahead of the 360 days before the launch of the Wii U?

are you referring to the combined sales of the playstation family?

Wasn't talking about his graph from 08, i meant the recent report. And its about as right as NPD.

You understand where NPD gets their numbers from right? Do you have a link to where this source gets it from?

bu bu bu is not a prediction!!! then why it was done by ''Team: IDC Predictions Team'' :lol: :cool:

You are getting sidetracked so let me help get you back on track. Does this company have the official numbers from Sony and Microsoft? Also Nintendo since they predict sales about them also? If they do not have the actual numbers from those companies then they have to be predicting the results.Correct?

Do you know how people make predictions? Lay out a basic explanation here; it should be about 2 sentences.

Also, I really don't think anyone read the article. Searching for certain words is quote-mining.

Whoopie biggest financial failure in console history's in second place I bet sony's real happy.

Newhopes

Biggest financial failure in console history? Umm you do know they're turning profit on PS3's right? And I think there have been far bigger failures. Jaguar, 32X, Sega CD, Sega Saturn, Sega Dreamcast, and Neo Geo just to name a few.

Those consoles never cost the company $5-6 billion.

No they just failed and were put out of production. If that's not the very definition of failure I don't know what is.

The ps3 was supposed to pass the 360 within a year... its been six. Still plenty to chuckle about for the lems. The 360 had a far better generation for the xbox brand than the ps3 did for sony. Not minimizing the accomplishments of any console, but if you consider the HEAVILY favored ps3 finally overtaking the underdog SIX years after launch a mega win, then its pretty easy to sit back and laugh.

Aint that a load of sh1t :lol: The PS3 launched a year late, a year and a half later in most of the world at 600$ and was deemed DOOMED, it was called a disaster and deemed to fail by the media at large. Oh how we forget :lol:

You can do that on Windows PC. :|

GamerwillzPS

And I can do it on a Mac. Problem?

Why spend all the money on a Mac for some editing software when you can do it on PC alongside many things such as gaming and a vast amount of software to use?

Basically, you can do EVERYTHING on a PC. Not a single thing missing.

Ease of use is one thing. I used FCP at uni so its natural that I needed a copy for doing work away from the uni machines. Plus I like the way that FCP handles importing media from P2 cards which were our primary recording media. Adobe's method is just annoying. Import media using Log and Transfer in FCP 7 and open the .MOV in Adobe Premier.

Goes from selling the most consoles ever in gaming last gen to crawling out of last place later six years later after the Next Gen Nintendo Console has already arrived. This is what you guys call a victory for Sony? If losing over 50% of your marketshare in the industry is a victory than okay its a victory. Not like I care though all I care is about my Nvidia/AMD stocks when it comes to console sales :lol:

There are many reasons I like the PS3 and would cheerfully engage any of my friends/coworkers as to why I think it's the best console this gen. This isn't one of them. This is far from anything worth discussing in the real world and anything related to business when talking about the PS3 will inherently backfire.

This thread is the most pure form of SW I may have ever seen.

I would like to be the first to acknowledge the hypocrisy by Cows (yet again) after claiming this entire gen that sales do not matter, but not that PS3 has allegedly sold more than the 360, sales all of a sudden matter.

Cows gunna cow.

BPoole96

Lol, that's the nature of the Cows bro. Also, didn't some Cows also posted an article about some analysts said the PS3 had overtaken the Xbox 360 to become #2 WW in 2010 and Cows cheered on the news?

you clearly aren't seeing this from the point of view that you should. The console with the highest sales gets the most support from 3rd party devs and that's why sales are always worth discussing.

Numbers from units sold by Bops2 and Halo 4 have not been posted yet. The Data already shows that Kinect broke another record, in order for that people would have to buy a 360 in order to buy a kinect. So it's illogical to conclude that the PS3 won, it's all in the heads of the Sony defense force.

[QUOTE="whiskeystrike"]

There are many reasons I like the PS3 and would cheerfully engage any of my friends/coworkers as to why I think it's the best console this gen. This isn't one of them. This is far from anything worth discussing in the real world and anything related to business when talking about the PS3 will inherently backfire.

This thread is the most pure form of SW I may have ever seen.

you clearly aren't seeing this from the point of view that you should. The console with the highest sales gets the most support from 3rd party devs and that's why sales are always worth discussing.

The Wii outsold both of them, and has the least 3rd party support.

They've been so close for so long. Hard to care now. Besides 360 gets almost no Japanese support which is what I value most in a console. All other types of games I'd rather play on PC.Hopefully next gen stays true

[QUOTE="Eddie-Vedder"][QUOTE="TheEroica"] The ps3 was supposed to pass the 360 within a year... its been six. Still plenty to chuckle about for the lems. The 360 had a far better generation for the xbox brand than the ps3 did for sony. Not minimizing the accomplishments of any console, but if you consider the HEAVILY favored ps3 finally overtaking the underdog SIX years after launch a mega win, then its pretty easy to sit back and laugh.TheEroica
Aint that a load of sh1t :lol: The PS3 launched a year late, a year and a half later in most of the world at 600$ and was deemed DOOMED, it was called a disaster and deemed to fail by the media at large. Oh how we forget :lol:

Sony made some incredibly poor decisions with ps3 and thus it lost a tremendous chunk of market share... yes, true it made a great comeback, no one doubts this but it stumbled its way past a console that will nearly have quadrupled thiers....

You said it yourself, Sony lost lots of marketshare because THEY made mistake which they won't be making again next gen. As you can see with PS3, there isn't much brand loyalty. Anything can happen next gen. 360 got a pass this gen because it came out cheaper than PS3 and with MS stealing exclusives, a lot of people thought why buy a PS3. That stigma wont be around next gen. So I ask you, what is your "quadruple" marketshare going to get you next gen? Nothing is guarenteed. I get what youre flaunting when it comes to marketshare, next gen could be totally different so who cares" Thats why you base it off the here and now. MS had more market presence and was competition for Sony, it may be because Sony shot themselves in the foot, but they became competition nonetheless. Stop using marketshare to downplay, its irrelevant and it makes you seem butthurt. "Oh look, the Wii quintupled it marketshare, that makes this game so much more fun"

You just keep denying it bro, it gives us an excuse to have another one of these threads in a few weeks :lol:

And then when theres a thread on this once official numbers release they're gonna be saying "Well i thought it passed 360 last December" gotta love when Lems play dumb, or maybe they're not playing:shock:

Actually, didn't Sony release their #'s back in middle November? There's no way they sold 7 million in a month and 1/2.

Thefatness16

7 million? They were nearly neck and neck according to sales figures at that time.

Sony reported that they sold 70 million on Nov 16. 1 month and 1/2 later their at 77 million.

Not saying it's wrong, but I'll wait for more official sources.

And that 70 million figure included PS2 sales.

No, the 70.6 mil included PS2 sales. PS3 was said to have sold 70.2. I doubt Sony is gonna say we sold 70 mil PS3s only for some of them to be PS2s. Wouldn't sit right with investors ya know?

The Xbox 360 has more Japanese support than the PS3, just not Jrpgs. If you think japanese dev=Jrpgs only then no wonder you have terrible taste in games.

Released at half to less than half of the price of the HD twins. I think that was a big factor. Oh, and the fact that it appealed to casuals with the motion control gimmick. You should know this with all the grandparents playing Wii bowling. I don't have a crystal ball, but Wii U will not have the same success.
