So who thinks the PS3 will outsell the 360 ?

As we all know the 360 was launched almost a year before the ps3, and it only has a 5 mil units lead.

Just as a reminder the 360 has 20+ mil units sold and the ps3 has 15+ mil sold units so far.

Also the ps3 has been outselling the 360 all year.But now during the holidays chances are that with the new 200$ 360 model sales will improve and m$ might just win this holiday , but let's not forget, the ps3 has 5 titles for the holidays: LBP(which is a potential system mover) Resistance 2, Motorstorm 2, Socom, and Naruto(i'll be buying naruto anyways :P ) the also has 360 has Gears 2,Fable 2 as big tittles and Banjo&Kazooie (As exclusive titles and possibly system movers)

So m$ might just win the holidays but since the ps3 has outsold the 360 the whole year who knows.

But what about after that? will the ps3 eventually outsell the 360 next year? It's possible since it already has 5 titles to look forward: inFamous, MAG, KZ2, GOWIII, GT5 and maybe FF versus

Your thoughts?

It probably will, simply due to X-box's poor reception in Japan.

In the end though, I'd say no one really did that bad in terms of sale this gen though. Both Microsoft's and Nintendo's platforms will out perfom their last gen counter parts. And even if the Playstation 3 doesnt out sell it's predacessors, it'll still sell pretty good.

I really don't care to much though. The X-box has the best game and thats what really matters.

I would probably consider myself an Xbox fan, but I believe the PS3 will outsell the 360 in the end, when the PS3 eventually comes down to the sweet price points they will be flying off the shelves. It may take a few years but I can see it happening. Pablo_Aimar

If they drop the price to 350 or 300 (dough 300 is a dream really) but 350 is more plausible, then maybe we'll see some real increase in sales :D

PS3 will outsell 360, then a lot of people will have that guy at E3 with the "360 will outsell ps3 worldwide" thing in their sig, and add something like "Owned" or w/e to it.

Lulz that is plausible :P

sorry xbox fanboys, owning both consoles, I think the PS3 will outsell the 360. Just look at the history. Which console is still up and running: ps2 0r the original xbox.. it explains it right there. Blu ray won the wars against hd dvd so thats a big deal right there. hd dvd is already outdated. The ps3 is, believe it or not, a much powerful console than the 360. ps3 had a bad start because ps3 was way to powerful for the game makers. they were not used to the technology. next year ps3 will have longer games due to the amound of space on the blu ray disc. when microsoft makes there new xbox "720" the 360 will die because thats how microsoft operates. they always stop working on old stuff. The ps3 will have a 10 year life just like the ps2. the 360 will only have 4 more years to live. The president of microsoft already mentioned it in the magazine that ps3 had more features then the 360 thats why they are working on the new xbox to keep up with the ps3. Sony is the better/smarter company. yes, 360 has better games right now, because 360 is easier to work with. The games are coming for PS3, much better and longer games too. Metal gear solid 4 is a great start! they are making 360 cheaper so people will buy them over the ps3. microsoft knows the ps3 is catching up fast. You really get what you pay for. ps3 has built in blu ray, wifi, free online which is better. Come on now, lets say you buy Madden 09 for both ps3 and 360. why would you want to pay for online for 360 when ps3 is free? they are both the same game and the same features. microsoft is just greedy. I plan on selling my 360 for PS3 games. PS3 is better and it will, sooner or later, outsell the 360! I guarantee you all.

If they continue their price dropping strategy, the ps3 will be free in 2 years. :lol: ($200 cut first year..)hopesfall2own

that would be too cool :lol: i think the wii will be free in 2-3 years :|

You say you own both consoles but I don't believe you, you are a cow disguising yourself as someone with no biases. The PS3 is not much more powerful, it has the advantage of blu-ray for storage size, but in terms of power the two consoles are virtually even. However, I too think that the PS3 will outsell the Xbox 360 because as High Definition continues to get more and more popular, people are going to want a Blu-ray player, and people who also enjoy games are going to spend the extra $100 and a get a PS3 instead of a standalone blu-ray player, as that is exactly what I did. Ona side note though, I think the 360 will win in software sales because a lot of the PS3 users are going to be using it mostly for movies. I know I still buy all my multiplats on the 360 because of the superior controller, superior online.(don't even bring up the price, most people that pay don't really care.)

In the long run? Like I said when it first launched -- it's inevitable.

This holiday season? Well if a $200 360 doesn't get MS the win then I wil cry for gaming.

As we all know the 360 was launched almost a year before the ps3, and it only has a 5 mil units lead.

Just as a reminder the 360 has 20+ mil units sold and the ps3 has 15+ mil sold units so far.

The 360 will outsell the PS3 this holiday season in NA, thats for sure. Worldwide PS3 probably will win out. Its close though.

Yea, i do own both consoles. And a ton of people use there ps3 more than a blu ray player. did you play metal gear solid 4? did you play siren? Do you know that there are a ton of games coming out for Ps3. (Infamous, little big planet, gran turismo 5, ps home, resistance 2, motorstorm 2, saints row 2, Warhawk 2, Socom, and so much more exclusives) the games will be much longer too because blu ray has alot of space on it! yes ps3 is more powerful, look it up at google. 360 is not even close to even with the ps3. does ps3 break down like the 360. Its more than high definition, the ps3 games next year will be much longer than 3 xbox 360 games put together. Ps3 users use there console for games too, not just movies. superior online for 360 LOL all it does is freeze. you go ahead and waste your money for online gaming. I will laugh at you when the ps3 does outsell the 360. just wait and see. your just a 360 fanboy who will hate to see the ps3 take over so you take it out on people. im not even going to argue with someone who doesn't know who there talking about lol! i pay for 360 online, and i dont care either but where is the money going too? they aren't improving on live at all. I rather pay nothing online. Ps3 is better and you know it. 360 games are pretty much sequals from n64 games or games that are already for ps3 and wii. 360 only has like 4 exclusives that they thought of on there own. ex: halo and fable. other games that microsoft thought of suck. we will just see in the future. and i am getting rid of my 360, im sick of the red ring of death and the freezing online. microsoft should have just stayed with computers.

I personally dont care which one sells more. I own a 360 because I prefer the games, Live, the interface and the 360 controller over what the PS3 offers!! That is my opinion and you all have your own as well. I can tell you though that I simply dont see BluRay as a difining difference maker this generation. I mean here we are two years in for the PS3 and the only game to utilize the space that BluRay discs offer is MGS 4 and unless you own a 1080p HDTV, watching a BluRay movie in 720p or 1080i is no better than if I were to go buy a upconvert DVD player for $100 that can maximize the resolution of a standard DVD.

then you should be on the 360 forum because SW is basically the prediction forum of what console will sell more in the end and why.

And i do believe that sooner or later PS3 will outsell the Xbox 360.It already has in Europe.

Yes it is :P you know some people have the 6 sense :o

It probably will, simply due to X-box's poor reception in Japan.

In the end though, I'd say no one really did that bad in terms of sale this gen though. Both Microsoft's and Nintendo's platforms will out perfom their last gen counter parts. And even if the Playstation 3 doesnt out sell it's predacessors, it'll still sell pretty good.

Dude if you ever been to japan you will notice that people really dont care about PS3s or 360s.All they want are portable devices like the PSP and cellphones...etc..etc

PS3 will do ok until I can go to a department store and buy a Blu-Ray player for $150. At that time the PS3 will face a few issues.

($360 + $BR player = $PS3) = bad news for PS3.

I think the PS3 will out sell the 360 again this year. As a consumer, it will be other factor mixed in:

1) Analog T.V. will be killed in Feb, give people a reason to buy a HDTV......or buy a convertor box, who wants that tho.

2) With a possible HDTV sales, there might be a Blu-Ray player sales (PS3 or stand alone), people buy both games and movies for x-mas. Transformers, Ironman, and The Hulk will be out on Blu-ray this x-mas

3) Once the 360 Arcade systems are gone, the $200 price will be gone too.

or a convertor box, buy who wants that

Al3x_n90

360 will outsell ps3. firstly, japan makes up small sales nubmers compared to the rest of the world. But with the new JRPG's coming it is picking up in sales each week. Second, the new price point will sell tonnes more than PS3 this holiday, Third they hav emany new games on the horizon, some of which casual gamers will want to get, along with the new price point, it will sell.

thirdly, its not arrogant sony, and ps3 refuses to drop their prices still.
