[QUOTE="360BandW"]Who is winning the software battle? and by how much? I say MS and by a nice margin.navyguy21lol @ your username lol, anyway, i would say 360 SOLD more, but the PS3 had the vastly superior line-up, ill take the great games over millions sold any day. Im just talking about sales, not about videogame lineups.
[QUOTE="Giancar"]360 I guess... it has even a bigger install base360BandWyeah but not the ratio that modern warfare sold at. I wish we had that data, cause im sure 360 was winning that since the gen started.
Yea 360 outsold ps3 in mw2:
2.5 : 1

I wish we had that data, cause im sure 360 was winning that since the gen started. # CALL OF DUTY: MODERN WARFARE 2 (360) 4.20M # CALL OF DUTY: MODERN WARFARE 2 (PS3) 1.87M it has sold 2.24 times more... and the 360 in usa has sold like 2 more times (IIRC) it isn't that much by that analysis in the NPD region anyways
holy crap that a huge margin

he's just trying to show us how much bigger his brain is to ours
Maybe PS3 owners don't need to buy MW2 to offset a mediocre lineup this year.Panther501
so what have they bought then?

other games, like ff13 in japan :?So Japan is the deciding region for software sales? lol. No matter how good the games were on the PS3 you can't deny the fact that sowtware sales are always much higher on the 360.

where have I denied it? Please show me, I have clearly stated that I think that the 360 has sold more games copiesthis year in my post above :?other games, like ff13 in japan :?[QUOTE="Giancar"][QUOTE="AdmiralBison"]

and sales over rule the exact quality of the titles how? I really want to hear this? Not to mention it's an entire region where the difference is gigantic. Throw in the fact that Europe is either extremely close...i'd say that software sales "advantage" isn't very massive.[QUOTE="BURSTIIIFIRE"][QUOTE="Giancar"] other games, like ff13 in japan :?jg4xchamp

Throw in the fact that Europe is either extremely close...i'd say that software sales "advantage" isn't very massive.I never said that I am happy with my PS3 but in terms of software sales 360 leads by a big margin (most multiplats/exclusives sell alot better on the 360).
Regarding the attach ratio stuff. It goes both ways. Shooters, especially MP focused, tend to have a higher AR on 360. Fighting games and hack and slash and adventure do better(AR) on Ps3(see Tekken 6[ps3 version actually outsold 360], SF4, Batman, AC, etc). Giant 360 marketing behind MW2 certainly helped as well. As did joker for Batman ps3.
Yes, the overall game attach rate for 360 is higher than ps3 though. It's like 9 on 360 to 8 on ps3. I'd largely attribute that to people who did buy ps3s for nothing but blu-ray early this gen.

certainly wasn't UC2,lollol nope def wasent that
what is tc trying to prove to us? NOTHING. sales means a lot to the company but that doesn't benifit you, me, the gamers, and the silly level 1 tc. quality games >>>> sales. gamers unite! iwasgood2uactually it does benefit who own 360's, it means more dev support for the 360, which means better multiplat games and more of them, devs will always give the most love to the console that makes them the miost sales/money, it may not benefit PS3 owners, but it definitly benefits 360 owners this gen, especially as we get games like, mass effect,left 4 dead and metro 2033
well...when you consider that there are more 360's out there than there are ps3's......
when you consider all the people who own both systems and just bought the 360 version for xbl
when you consider most retailers stock up more on 360 then on ps3 games
when you consider there were more cheesy side products on 360 than ps3
its not surprising. i mean....as much as i hate to admit it, xbl is pretty darn good, i would buy a game for 360 over ps3 if it was multiplayer
