Of course

the 360 is already way ahead of the ps3

ps3 is destined to be in third place this gen

like the piece of crap that it truly is

stappy

It's a fantastic paperweight though.

You'd think so till your paper catches fire.

Why would your paper catch on fire? It's the 360 that overheats. :roll:

The man is just repeating what everyone knows already.

king_bobo

and you repeat it once more..

but seriously, yes I think it will. Current pricetag + solid lineup = win

The PS3 has a pretty solid lineup too, but its the price that will stop most people buying a PS3.

Especially with the economy... there for awhile $399 for a PS3 felt "cheap". Now it feels like anything but. :? And the $499 Uncharted bundle? Forget about it.

Who cares? Who will have the most worldwide sales for the year? Or do sales only matter during the months MS puts out a backpatting press release.

I don't think thats why it will win the holiday ....Holiday is time for parents to buy, and they dont' know anything ....Their kid wants a console and the arcades the cheapest so they end up getting them that.....Even tho a xbox without a harddrive = Fail

so they end up with a heart broken kid.....Or 150 more for a harddrive

why would children care about a harddrve, you don't need it to play every 360 game, besides you can pick up a 20gb hdd for 20 quid, your rubbish= FAIL

Or get a 20gb for $30, or go on amazon and get a 120gb for $100 or a $60 gb for like $50. I'm shocked that people so up on technology that they'll drop crazy money on consoles and video games but they're so afraid of technology that they refuse to buy anything used because they think that 100% of used things are broken... despite Ebay's growth (if it was a den of ripoffs and bad buys they woulda gone outta business years ago) and tons of retail sites now selling used versions on the same page as new (Amazon and Barnes & Nobles are two that come to mind instantly.

I've purchased like 50 things used in my life over the net. None of it was broken. Meanwhile, a retail store like Gamespot has sold me a broken game, a broken gamecube and a broken original xbox... twice... back to back.

I hear fanboys suffer from many diseases, like:

Ignorance

Blurry eyes

Ownage

Early death.

The killing of penguins, dolphins, and pandas.

Fanboyism isn't worth it!

[QUOTE="-Renegade"]North America maybe, worldwide? NO chance.beerm_basic

you said that last xmas :| you ever get tired of being wrong

LOL it's hard to say how they did worldwide last year but overall PS3 outsold 360 throughout the year last year. Same will happen this year.

If he said this two months ago, I would have laughed... but after the price drop? The 360 has it on lock. Heck, if price was the only factor for buying video game consoles, it could potentially outsell the Wii this Christmas!

carljohnson3456

I agree and I think the main reason the Wii outsold the competition is because of the price. Things have change this holiday, the Wii isn't the cheapest anymore, so we'll see how that goes.

MS will sell more this holiday...Given the current price point and game selection....MS has the upper hand on Sony..

Will it sell more in Japan?...I don't know about that...my guess is no...."IF" it did all the cows would suicide there account..

Will it sell more in Europe?...Yes I believe it will...for the above reasons..

Will it sell more in NA?..... Absolutely!!!...MS is down... what 160K units YTD to the PS3 in NA....I will be shocked if it did not make that up and more..making the year a wash in sales for NA..

With MS's lead of "around" 5M Sony has to outsell the 360 by 250K per month for 20 months straight to even catch up...With no price drop in the near future..AKA missing this holiday....and then coming back into the slow spring and horrible summer months..

How do cows "really" think 09/10 is the overtake year for the PS3?
