[QUOTE="Flexmaster_365"]The 360 hasnt been selling all that well because of the bad economy, the sales will turn around also I personally could care less the Wii will win the sales anyway I'd rather have the best games AKA Xbox 360.virtuas

and yet ps3 which is more expensive sells more.

Thats because its geared to the wealthier consumer (Bluray) that arent affected all that much by the economy.

what the hell are you talking about? i know about 7 ppl that own ps3 and none of them have a decent job

Thats because they are hardcore gamers or Sony fanboys who would save up to buy gaming systems no matter what. I am talking about the masses and fact is that the PS3 is geared towards a wealthier market, its look, blu ray, etc. easily indicate this. Where as the 360 gamers come more from the low/medium income segments which are the most affected by thecurrent recession and high gas prices...

or maybe they (average ppl) like what the ps3 offers. i mean they do have great 1st party exclusive, mgs4, and reliablity on their side. its not all about fanboys and the wealthy buying ps3. For example, i wanted to buy xbox but RROD kept me away from buying one cuz of fear.

or maybe since Sony is on their 3rd system, they have built up a loyal fan base. remember that a lot of people would not even dare buying the original xbox, just because they hate MS or the fact that they made windows. god damn sad if you ask me.

[QUOTE="Ragashahs"]yeah while you work in econ i work in reatil so i'm actually the one selling these things and let me say that the video game sales have gone through the roof despite the recession. and i'm not talking about just ps3 or hardware when i looked at our departments sales by each section we found every sections sales were either down or didn't have substantial growth all except for one and that would be video games. both software and hardware are selling better than normal and it's not that we're selling less 360's. our 360's sales have stayed the same for the most part when comparing 07 to 08 so far however ps3 sales have greatly gone up in that same time. the main reason it the blu ray player as you said however the reaction isn't the the ps3 also plays games but that the blu ray feature is an added bounus on top of great games. oh yeah my job is at walmart in the electronic department so we don't get many "wealthier mass consumers" thereRagashahs

You work at Walmart. :lol:

I just had to, lol

Nah you cant say that your local retailer represents the country as a whole, some places are more hard hit than other, while some areas are far more wealthy and always have been. The general mass consumer usually will go with whatever is the best value and the fact is Blu Ray offers the PS3 far more value esp with people that are not very interested in gaming. And you also have to remember that MGS4 was a huge title that caused an upswing in sales, much like a Gears 2 would do on the 360. And lastly now that that Sony won the format war it is obvious that the PS3 will benefit from higher sales esp in the short term.

read this and tell my how your argumetn makes sense

simple. ppl buy and play videogame so they dont have to think about the economy.

two reasons why i avoid xbox 360.

1. Fear of RROD. i dont like waiting.

2. Online payment. I hate giving away money

I never said that people will not buy console or games now I just said that the market has slown down compared to earlier levels. The market will keep expanding, make sure you read what was posted in the article, they said sales coninued to be strong because gaming is a relatively cheap form of home entertainment. If there was no economic downturn however the number would be even higher. People with no preferences in consoles will go with the system with the most value and that is the PS3 and combine that with the other factors like MGS4 and Bluray winning and you can see why the PS3 is outselling the 360 right now. And the Wii is still selling strong because it is the cheapes system and offeres a different experience.

[QUOTE="Ragashahs"]considering 360's lead has gone form 8-7 million at the start of 08 to 4-5 million at the half way point it's pretty easy to see ps3 will most likely overtake 360 in worldwide sales in early/mid 09virtuas

Not suprisingly thats when the U.S. recession started...

uhh... the recession didn't start 08 the US economy has steadly decreased over the past year however it talks awhile before the fed offically declares a recession. ever since the war in 9/11 and teh war in iraq the us economy has started to decrease at first it was slight and was attributed to the war in iraq however over teh past 2-3 years the economy has taken some pretty big hits and now the US is now offically in a recession. also considering the price difference between the 360 and the ps3 is only 50 dollars your logic that only teh rich an afford a ps3 is flawed

economy tank when bush got elected

bush might be an idiot and a fool, but don't blame that on him. I remember clearly at least a few months before bush came to power, it was already being reported that we were headed into a recession. we were flying high when clinton was in power, but everything that goes up must come down. I can't stand bush, but I do remember the talk of a financial downturn way before bush could do anything about it. there are many things I could blame bush for, but I will not blame him for that, it was going to happen regardless if he was in power or not.

honestly I do remember reading articles about the up coming recession, I could be wrong, but I really don't think so. clinton was cool and all, but a recession can happen regardless of how good a president is or isn't.

so the cheap wii sells and the expensive ps3 sells and the 360 doesn't not sell? this is not the because of the economy it's what the consumers want. without the recession ps3 would still is easily outselling 360 and recession had nearly no effect on the economy. the 360 is not selling due to it's lack of popularity not becuase the economy. may i remind you that even bofore the starte of the recession as you say occured in sep 07 was already outselling the 36o worlidwide in 07

Yes because the PS3 at $50 offers a lot more than the 360 and the Wii being far cheaper combined with the fact that its got this huge casual appeal thenit outsells both.

Let me ask you a question lets say the 360 was priced at $199 for the Pro. Do you not think that it would drasticaly outsell the PS3 as it would offer far better value even with Bluray on the Ps3.

And it plays Blu-Rays!

okay anybody would buy anything for 200. but lets try i more realistic approach if MS were to keep the new 60bg modle at 300 dollars while ps3 was still 400 which is a farily big difference i still thing ps3 would outsell the 360. btw what does this have to do with your point? you initally pointed out the the recession was a main reason teh 360 wasn't selling but even if the US wasn't in a recession would value would still be the same for $50 you get a game console and a bluray player the value at which you stated is the main reason the ps3 sells would be the same reguardless of the status of the economy

Yes the recession is one of the main reasons. But its not the only one MGS4's release whichi s a system seller and Blu Rays win in the format war are equally as big if not bigger.

And do I think that the $50 would have been the same as now 1 year ago?

NO. Because back then HD DVD and Blu Ray were still in a hard fought war that didnt look like it would end anytime soon. Combined with the fact with the recession. If times were good people usually dont care about overspending but when times get tougher you get more analytical in your purchases and you are more stingy with your money you make sure you make the best purchase, so when an employee at lets say Walmart tells you "Oh this is more future proof with Bluray, it also is far more reliable than the 360" ofcourse you will go with the PS3.

okay if that was true why did PS3 outsell 360 in 07. 360 had everything going for it for the most part. great games with teh big system seller called halo 3 at the time PS3 was still 600-500 dollars so it had it's value going for it then why was it outsold?

I guess everyone knew that PS3 would outsell Xbox360 with the exception that many didnt want to admit it... PS3 is the successor to the biggest selling console (btw still selling) therefore it has a huge install base of fans which will eventually get a PS3... I got one last year and unlike many state, enjoyed many great games and free online is a Plus... am not even counting its huge list of multimedia features and being a blu-ray player...

However am also happy that lately got an Xbox360 because its a great console too, at first i was sceptic but after a few games i realised that one shouldnt judge/bash before actually trying stuff...

Also its good that all consoles are doing fine in terms of sales, since only gamers can benefit, since it would attract devs to invest more money and produce better quality games on all systems..

And which system did I just buy two weeks ago? It definitely wasn't a PS3. If MS can sell ME of all people a 360 over a PS3 then Sony has no chance.

They like waiting years for quality exclusives and always getting inferior version of multiplats? The PS3 won't be worth the expenditure until at least mid-2009 and even then the 360 will still have more and better exclusive titles.

Check the 1st 90 weeks of sales for all 3 consoles. Congrats to Wii, though.

jesus dude, we get it, you like Sony.

I've been saying it since day one, fanbase alone will help the PS3 pass the 360 in sales.

last gen Sony sold 120 million and MS around 25.

do the math.

Sony knows this also, they said it themselves, that loyal fans will buy the PS3 even without games.

I'm sitting here watching my girl play Too Human, I'm happy to see her enjoy this game and can't wait to get two copies so we can co-op this game to death.

see what I'm doing here, enjoying myself and letting PS3 owners enjoy whatever makes them happy playing the PS3.

you don't see me posting up articles saying "girlfriends rather play 360 over PS3", if it was you, you would break your fingers just to put it up on this post as fast as possible.(well honestly, renegade would probably beat you to it)

its getting to a point that I feel sad for you, a grown man consistently trying to prove to other people why his toy is better.

According to the overwhelming evidence, your gf will dump you for a guy with a ps3

Up until 2008 all of the PS3 multiplats have been noticeably inferior, that is yet another problem the PS3 faces since in the beginning it couldn't establish a proper foothold in the multiplat market. Sure, it can equal the 360 now but it's failed to take off and will not be able to grab people up for a long time. By the time the PS3 finally starts taking off, Microsoft will probably have it's next console out the door.

The 360 hasnt been selling all that well because of the bad economy, the sales will turn around also I personally could care less the Wii will win the sales anyway I'd rather have the best games AKA Xbox 360.Flexmaster_365

[QUOTE="Ragashahs"]considering 360's lead has gone form 8-7 million at the start of 08 to 4-5 million at the half way point it's pretty easy to see ps3 will most likely overtake 360 in worldwide sales in early/mid 09Flexmaster_365

Not suprisingly thats when the U.S. recession started...

Ps3 out sells 360 in US too, you have no point.

Okay, that chart doesn't really support anything about the PS3 beating the 360 for two reasons

1. the US's economic slump, affects the PS3 as well as well as the 360.

2. Consoles generally have five year shelf lives, and the 360's been out for 3 years so the 360's natural decline is starting to take hold, by now everyone who wants one has one. The PS3 has only been out for 2 years and it's just now hitting it's peak.

If the 360 sold well all over the world it would not be a problem. but the ps3 does which helps.

anyway its not just the US facing hard times,there are also problems arising in the UK too.

That and where games are, develoepsr go, and consumers follow. I think this fall will show the 360's return to sales king (minus the wii of course)

and yet ps3 which is more expensive sells more.

Thats because its geared to the wealthier consumer (Bluray) that arent affected all that much by the economy.

one of my teachers owns a ps3 simply because it came packaged with an hdtv he bought...

LOL at all the idiots. Nice joke TC. Create a chart of sales over a small period, and watch the idiots stampede.

Fanboys sure love charts. Funny they have no clue how to read them. You guys need to read more, think more, and post a whole lot less.

OMG, PS3 sucks! ://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=Wii®1=All&cons2=PS3®2=All&cons3=X360®3=All&weeks=1

OMG, PS3 is killing 360!

http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=Wii®1=All&cons2=PS3®2=All&cons3=X360®3=All&weeks=80

OMG, PS3 is crushing the 360 and the Wii!
