The ps3 doesn't look like such a bad decision by sony afterall huh?

I mean when you consider all the awesome games it has later this year as well as the price drop its most likely gonna be getting its not hard to predict that the 360 will be very close to being surpassed by it come spring 2008.

The fact that the PS3 has sold THAT many at it's price point in such a limited time is extremely impressive.

I agree that it could probably have the same amount sold as the 360 in a year. Of course the Wii will probably be miles ahead of them both by then.

Exactly.

So what if Sony have shipped 5.5 million Playstation 3's. That doesn't stop them from sitting on store shelves.

Does anyone know where that number's from? Because I'd like to see a more accurate source than some newspaper talking about BR sales, for some reason this article reeks of vgcharts/nextgenwars. Not saying it isn't right, just that I hadn't heard about Sony releasing official numbers lately.

lol so if 10 million xbox 360s shipped 1/3 people go through 3 xboxs so for every 5 xboxs there are 3 consumers hmmm that means only 6 million ppl actually have an xbox 360 bcz the other 4 million are ether on the shelves or broken and returned haha, but seriously im pretty sure 5.5 million have been sold bcz i keep hearing 6 million shipped, but this guy says 5.5 million sold so believeable

Even if all sales numbers are eduacated guesses, then it would still be in the 3.5 mill area. A 2 million margin of error is really huge.

no way thats a big lie. Wii has outsold the PS3 2 to 1 overall. that would mean Wii is allready at 10 million. which its not. and 360 is working around 12-14 million. since its been outselling it every month. I think that article means 5.5 million bluray players sold every month. because i highly doubt all those PS3s were sold. nexgenwars has them at 3.5 million so does vgcharts. and i bet so does everyone else. there is no way they sold 5 million units.

2-1 ratio would be 10-11 million. and i highly,highly doubt the PS3 got 5.5 million sales. its been outsold by the 360 and Wii almost every month in almost every region. with the exception of japan buying more PS3s than 360s. also the gba has been outselling the PS3. and u honestly think the PS3 has sold 5.5 million units. Im betting they meant 3.5 or overall bluray sales.

Check your receipt. Did they charge you for 2 million systems?
