It looks like we finally get to hear about Sony's BF numbers. The 18th to 24th.

PS3=525,00 units

Vita=160,000 units

Sales of PlayStation Plus subscriptions on PlayStation Network increased 259% compared to last years Black Friday period, Sony states, with customer satisfaction rates for PS Plus above 95%.Sony

So PS3 did worse than the 360, but still domination, I assume, right?

Link for 360 sales

750,000 > 525,000.

That's pretty solid.

About 2/3 of the 360 sales for the same period? Is that right?

Is this gif a metaphor for the lem/cow system war? A couple of weeks back the cows had the ice cream as sales caught up, and now the lems have the opportunity to take this ice cream, as their White Friday sales were greater?

I believe the 360 sold more than 750 for the week of Black Friday. According to the article it sold 750k+ the weekend of.

Considering the 360 normally outsells the PS3 in North America by about 3 to 1 I would say those are pretty good numbers

360 won for the simple reason. The general price of a console is cheaper. I own a 360 and love sony but how does sony still charge 299 or , 249 for a console that old?

I don't care if theres a blue ray player in it, your in one of the last years of the current gen. Make the price easier to swallow for late adopters of the console.


But overall I'm impressed with the ps3's sales this gen. Got a later start, inventory problems at launch, and yet their pretty close with the 360 this gen in sales.

Wait let me edit this..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Console_wars#Worldwide_sales_figures_7

according to wiki the ps3 has out sold the 360 now? thats crazy! Kind of wish I kept mine this gen.

Owning a PS3 is like being a part of a super secret Gentleman's club. Nice suits, Rolex's, Aston Martins, kicking it in lazyboys and nothing but the best of brews. We're a smaller but cooler group, continuously drawing in the jelly and butthurt from the mininum wage workers and welfare gatherers (hint lems) who can only hope to save up one day and join our elite group.

Less really is more.

Still impressive numbers. Sony should be very proud with this.

Then again, Americans love their stuff, things that are "Made in the USA", so it's not surprising at all.

I know that 360s are made in China but it came from an American company in the first place. PS3 craps all over the 360 in the rest of the world, so PS3 > 360 in sales.

I thought this Gen was dead???

It would be crazy of MS to release a new console while 360 sales are still this high.

I don't see the point in any of us caring about sells. That's for the devs, hardware manufacturers, and stock holders to care about. Anybody here caring that isn't part of those groups that still care about sells is a moron. The games is what matters. I can't play sells.

LOL @ Wiki. The PS3 was never ahead. Sony has done a decent job keeping the PS3 afloat though. The only real reason the worldwide numbers are close is because of Japan. Asia gamers don't care for American games or consoles. The XBox will never be a huge success in that market and everyone knows it. Remove that region from the numbers and the 360 is well ahead.

Nintendo only sent 400K units to the U.S. You can't sell anymore then that if they aren't on the shelves. They completely sold out in the U.S.

But overall I'm impressed with the ps3's sales this gen. Got a later start, inventory problems at launch, and yet their pretty close with the 360 this gen in sales.

Wait let me edit this..

LOL @ Wiki. The PS3 was never ahead. Sony has done a decent job keeping the PS3 afloat though. The only real reason the worldwide numbers are close is because of Japan. Asia gamers don't care for American games or consoles. The XBox will never be a huge success in that market and everyone knows it. Remove that region from the numbers and the 360 is well ahead.

Hum, actually the EU regions (outside of the UK) helped more the PS3 sales than japan did. Japan isnt the only place where the PS3 is ahead of the 360. In most EU its is aswell. I can say the same about the 360 i.e. remove the USA numbers and the PS3 would be WAAY ahead of the 360. See how it goes for each side?
