Did Ps3 just get outsold 5 to 1 by the 360, Hilarious, bu bu but the price drop and heavenly sword.Cubs360
It was the freaking halo launch month. Remember the month of the halo 2 launch for than xbox 1? Where the xbox 1 managed to outsell the ps2? Yeah, it's kinda like that...
[QUOTE="HSYOON_1"][QUOTE="Koalakommander"][QUOTE="Eltroz"]Heavenly Sword 139k poor poor Sony. That was hyped as one of the biggest games of the year. First lair then Heavenly Sword. AchievementNuts
Poor Eternal Sonata =/. HS outsold it 2:1 and it will probably get JRPG of the year.
For shame.
poor Heavenly Sword. Halo 3 outsold it 24:1.
poor ps3, 360 outsold it 5:1 :lol:
So? You guys act like Halo 3 wouldn't sell many times more than any other game in that month. You also act like halo 3 had no effect on 360 sales and the 360 sold 500k by itself :?
It's great that you lemmings are celebrating your 360 sales but please don't start acting like the 360 is going to start selling this much every month. The sales of this month will probably be one of the highest in the 360's entire life...munu9Ya maybe Wii will be back on top next month. Who knows? Not the PS3 though. Heck if you look at weekly sales PS3 did worse this month then last. This was a 5 week NPD so if it was a normal 4 week NPD it would have gone under 100k agagin.

The Xbox sales didn't drop after the Halo 2 launch either, it sold on par with the PS2 that holiday season.So? You guys act like Halo 3 wouldn't sell many times more than any other game in that month. You also act like halo 3 had no effect on 360 sales and the 360 sold 500k by itself :? munu9
It doesn't matter why it sold a lot for September, it just matters that it did.
Nintendo had a good run, I for one welcome our new Xbox overlord.
LOL @ PS3 sales :lol: It was a 5 week month, and it dropped nontheless :lol::lol::lol:

A.) $499 model gone
B.) No games
C.) It's still $600
Next month will be different -- hopefully.
Poor Eternal Sonata. Add that game to the colorful list of 360 games such as Kameo, Viva Pinata, and Blue Dragon that didn't sell worth a crap. Prays Banjo Threeie gets the sales it deserves.peaceful_anger
i would of both eternal sonota today, but the game was sold out. they had plenty of halo 3 copies however. :evil:

What happened when the 60gb dropped $100? That is right it still came in last place. The PS3 still costs more then the 360. Also the 360 gets bundles with 2 games ( forza 2 and marvel UA) while PS3 a game console gets bundled with movies. The PS3 has been last every single NPD so far and it will stay that way. Also 360 has far more big titles out right now compared to PS3.All fanboyism aside.. do you guys realize that the 360/wii sold over 1 million systems in the month of SEPTEMBER... Jeez.. :? This Christmas is going to be record breaking ridiculous..
Back to fanboyism... lol The PS3 did WORSE after the price drop... Well cows.. :?

thats funny i only own one. besides if something ever happens with my 360 all i have to do is call customer service to get it repaired unlike sony with their faulty ps2 where i had to go through 4 of them over the years last gen. only time they actually did something about it was when they lost the settlement couple of years ago.

..no but there was a price drop for the PS3 in August.. it fell by $100 on both SKU's.. And it still managed to end up in last place.. :? Like I've been saying from the begining.. Sony price themselves out of the console war.. It's now between M$ and Ninty.. Atleast until the PS3 drops below $300.. however I'm certain the 360 pro wil be $199 by then..

Ninja Gaiden 2 versus Metal Gear Solid 4
Banjoo Threei versus Final Fantasy 13
Mass Effect versus Gran Turismo 5
Splinter Cell Conviction versus Tekken 6
Lost Odyssey versus White Knight Story
New Viva Pinita versus God of War 3
Too Human versus Ratchet and Clank
Those are paired up in no particular order, but I hope you see the point.
Sure anyone could tell me what games are better, but I think when it comes to "bigger", we should all be on the same page here.
PS3 will be a $400 console starting Nov 2nd. It is a Blu-Ray player, and is getting some of the biggest franchises in the video game industry exclsuively. Those are all facts, and if you can't tell me with a straight face that such a deal won't look attractive to many gamers, than you are not looking outside the box, and in your case -- the Xbox.

Took far to many words to type out just wait. Bottom line is average gamer is not spending a couple hundred dollors in hopes a future game is good or great and that is showing. Just look at PS3 sales. The average gamer want to play the games now when they spend the money not in a year in hopes thatsome random game is good. Halo 3, Bioshock , PGR4, Forza 2 and many others are out NOW not later. They are also on a cheaper console.PS3 will be a $400 console starting Nov 2nd.

Now all those game you mentioned for PS3, be a good boy and tell me which of those framchises ever sold a $400 system.
Because you're not getting or have forgotten why the PS2 was on top last gen.

Something just hit me.
Since the 40GB PS3 won't hit till next month, October sales are pretty much where we'll see PS3 once again drop to 100k.

I remember it being quite expensive and it took off because:
A.) it came out first
B.) It was a dvd-player
C.) It was pushed further by games like GT3 and FFX.
You may see some differences in the PS3. But it is its first year, and the titles are coming, the price is being fixed, and it's always been a blu-ray player -- which is arguably why it is at 4.5 million as we speak.
Will it win this war? Maybe. Will it suffer a loss of marketshare? -- you bet.

Didnt 3/4 of the PS3 users on this forum do it though? Almost all of them do not have the guts to admit it though.Awesome... 360 and Wii FTW... Sony is getting desperate.
20GB discontinued after 2 months... 60GB discontinued after 8 months... $100 price drop after 8 months... New gimped 40GB model after 11 months... And another $100 price drop 3 months after the last one... PS3 sales continue on the down ward spiral.
Better luck next gen Sony... Maybe you will think about the games next time.

Wow..360 sold 1.1 million in a month? WTF I wonder how its going to do this year with even bigger games.
As much as I worship Reggie, this had to be posted:
"The Wii went up against the self-proclaimed 'biggest entertainment launch ever' and we emerged with our best month of the year," Reggie Fils-Aime, president of Nintendo of American, told Reuters.
"They fired their bullet and our gun is loaded and ready to fire throughout the holidays," Fils-Aime said.

Koalakommander
A) It did come out first and that was a factor, but if you think $299 (PS2's launch price in NA) is expensive, what do you think $399 is?
B) It was a GAME CONSOLE first and a DVD player second. PS3 is the exact opposite.
C) Two games that had never had to push a $400 console. And those games need to come out NOW, not next year.
