Many other websites have this info too. I would find the gamespot datasheet, but I cant. If anyone has the link feel free to post it.

Interesting stuff, has the PS3 was supposed to surpass XBOX in these things a while aago and it finally has.

Doesn't change the fact there are more 360 games released, More high scoring games on the 360, A higher variety of games in the high scoring area on the 360. After 5 years the ps3 finally has...2 more exclusive games that scored well enough.

Kinect can save face for Microsoft only in the USofA. PS3 sticks to the gamers, the year the PS3 has tons of exclusives and the year Microsoft decided that Kinect is the future is the year PS3 overtakes 360. How symbolic.

So after playing the exclusive card for over 4 years to justify the 360 as superior to the PS3, you are now ditching that and sticking with overall quality of the library card? What happens when the overall quality of the PS3s library surpasses the 360? What card you then going to hang on to? Kinect selling more than Move?

It is for sure, without even referencing the article. Besides Gears 3, I can't think of 1 360 exclusive game that I want this whole *year* or for that matter that's even coming out this year, besides Forza 4 and I don't care about it.

even if it's true (which i doubt), there's hardly any claim for ownage. in reality every console maker won this gen, while sony won the least compared to how well they did the 2 generations prior to this one. more competition is better anyways...

New card: Sony won the least because of previous generation market share.

what about XBLA? there are plenty of gems released every year. oh yeah, those aren't retail games, so they don't count.

i would wait until after e3 to sell the 360, we should hear some more news about steel batallion and the new panzer dragoon...

And who knows how many of those 360s sold are actually the units out in homes working since the white 360s failed so often for years and people went out and bought new ones.

United States is the only country in the world where the 360 outsells the PS3. Something about Americans makes more of them go for 360.

Wait, so theres no reason to own a console other than what is announced to be released? So most gamers dont build a library of consoles and games that they like to play, god forbid, more than once? Aside from the Last Guardian and maybe R3 and Socom 4, there isnt much new going into my ps3 other than games I have and love. Guess I should sell it? Or buy exclusives I am not interested in just because they are exclusive?

A lot of XBLA games come to PSN and or PC too and I'm not sure if a system is worth keeping around for downloadale games.

those sales figures are according to some "analyst" who also predicted that by 2012 the PS3 will be at 120 million and the Wii at 20 million. :lol: :lol:

but people will attempt to use anything as "ownage" i guess

Yeah, I mean who would waste their time playing only downloadable games? This guy only plays real, solid, disk-media games that come in tangible, round, awesome disks, like League of Legends...

My copy of LoL did come on a disk. :) I got the collectors edition. Thanks for trying though, you *almost* succeeded. Maybe next time...try harder.
