Popularity doesn't mean crap though and the original Xbox was a "Much" better product. I bet you were a cow back then just like the rest of the ****ing Lems in here who jumped on the bandwagon. Just a lame COD kid.[QUOTE="Murderstyle75"][QUOTE="CallOfDutyRulez"]
LOL... Even better. The xbox 360 sold more than 3x its predecessor did. I can't wait until the 720 puts you cows in your place.

I was. During the PS2 gen, SONY was making money hand over fist. They have truly disappointed this gen. There is no way I can support them, especially now that they're not even making $1 billion in profit annually.
PS2 sucked ass. The only reason it had games was because of a similar bandwagon to that of the 360. The first good games didnt even come out for a full year after launch but for some odd reason it was selling out despite all the shitty titles in 2000/200110 TOP HIGHEST PS3/360 EXCLUSIVES ACCORDING TO METACRITIC.

No, worst case for cows is that it didn't pass the 360, which is very much possible. In fact based on what we've been told by sony, its THE MOST LIKELY scenario. But noooo cows will just not accept that LOL keep begging for the 6 year late victory[QUOTE="RR360DD"][QUOTE="trollhunter2"]
its not a good idea to post vgchartz here :? But anyway even without the ps2 sales, ps3 has either surpassed xbox 360 or they're even. In the worst case its a tie :cool:

Don't know the exact figures, but from Sonys reports its somewhere behind.

Marketshare is relevant, but I'm not saying it guarantees success (look at the PS3) Its just a foundation to build upon. A foundation the 360 never had.

And yet most of the 360's success came from J Allards vision which left in 2010. Much of what Steve Ballmer is now doing with the brand is not far off to what Crazy Ken did to the Playstation 3[QUOTE="Snugenz"][QUOTE="kuraimen"] I only hear empty words full of years from you Lem.kuraimen
Full of years, i admit it, i'm stumped...
Oh tears, no no no no, the only tears you see are your own while you're trying to read my posts, because they're so full of truth.

Poor Lem is in full denial :(Poor child is projecting his delusions, i'd get you the help you need if i knew which street you were sleeping rough in, i guess its beside a public library so that should narrow the search.
....lol I just went through and counted the threads that received enough posts to warrant counting, that thread subject being that the ps3 has outsold the 360 world wide in total systems.
Since 2011 there have been 15 threads that warranted counting, Every single one sheens such as eltormo, kuiraman, casharmy...etc have guaranteed us the information presented proved that the ps3 had sold more than the 360 world wide....15 times....

I guess this pretty much describe RROD and lemmings.
Oh sorry, you have me confused with someone who gives a shit which console sold more,no no no, i'm just hear to laugh at people like you and kuraimen who's happiness relies on the PS3 overtaking the 360 in sales.
If one of your kids liked the 360 more than the PS3 would you disown them?
lol took 4 minutes thats all it took to find out metacritic numbers.
xbox 360 highscores all time 70 and above 854
Ps3 highscores alltime 70 and above 710Â
remember both lists include rereleases, hd remakes, xbla and psn releases, as well as I believe dlc so since both contain such things its equal and fair.

Show me a link where they said that they stopped production in December. Even if they did there was still stock in warehouses, and still in stores. Do you think Sony just recalled all the PS2s worldwide back to their plants and disassembled them? No they will continue to sell them until they are gone.

And that doesn't change the fact that PS2 sales dropped 35% from 2010-11 compare to 2011-12 sales,from .4 million units to just 4.1 that is a 2.3 million drop,even if you apply half of that to 2012-13 sales that still is 1.15 million units less sold,which would put the PS2 at little under 3 millions sold,and would put the PS3 over the 360 by like 150K or more.
The link only points to Sony stopping shipment in Japan. Not the rest of the world.
It's really beside the point anyway. It still doesn't change the fact that Sony, for some reason, felt the need to start combining the PS2 and PS3 numbers for the last year.
You still have no factual way to separate the two numbers for the last fiscal year.
So you have no accurate, official PS3 sales numbers then right?
So you're just speculating?
Pulling numbers out of your ass?
Why don't you get that?Â
XBox has made serious ground in the US and UK. However, the 360 is not selling as well worldwide and it had a very large amount of advantages this gen. I don't question that XBoxes growth has not been impressive, but can they keep it up? We'll find out soon enough.Shewgenja
And one very big disadvantage. The RRoD, and MS's poor handling of it. This caused many people to see the 360 as an unreliable piece of hardware. Which turned off some people from buying it.

I say BS.. The gaming media happily played along with whatever the MS spin doctors fed them. Where was the uproar when Peter Moore called the Xbox 360 failure rate "a moving target"? Oh wait, there was none. Where was the media when Sony announced the $600 launch price? Firmly in the MS camp booing it, despite the fact it has been by far the cheapest system to own even at launch price due to no fees involve in ownership. Not ONE journalist would come out and say the PS3 was a smart buy when compared to the 360. Probably only a few PS fansites ever made mention of this. Every time a Playstation franchise moved to the Xbox as cross-platform it was a "crushing blow" to the PS3 but when PS3 got the likes of Ninja Gaiden and Elder Scrolls? Barely mentioned. NEVER has a console been treated with such velvet gloves after its launch than the Xbox 360. It was crowned the king of gaming and advertised to death in a blanket of marketing rivaling nothing seen before. What is actually more surprising than the success of the PS1 and the Wii is the fact that the PS3 wasn't dreamcasted this generation.[QUOTE="coasterguy65"][QUOTE="Shewgenja"] XBox has made serious ground in the US and UK.

Are you seriously going to sit their with a straight face and try to act like the media, and pretty much every PS3 fansite made no mention when games like NG, TES, Bayonetta, or ME went to to the PS3? It was all over the place. You really only see what you want to see don't you? I may have to withdrawl my earlier statement about how you are a cow, but how I didn't think you were a blind PS3 fanboy.Â
The PS3 had every advantage going into this generation. It was a Sony product. The Playstation name, It had a rabid fanbase. The PS2 was huge, with a huge install base, who would blindly buy the next PS product. It was hyped as being more powerful, with more developers in line to develop for it. etc...etc. The media did nothing but hype the PS3.
I am.. I didn't even begin on how "BluRay was risky" when only three or four studios weren't exclusively on board with it? How, even to this day, Sony's overall financial woes are tied in somehow with its gaming business despite little to no evidence that PS3 was impacted? How every American-based analyst who says Playstation will fail was touted as source-material for game journos. I left out plenty of stuff in my post, actually. No tinfoil hat necessita. There was a very deliberate and conscious effort to crown Microsoft this gen. Even before the whole Ferrari laptop scandal it was well known that MS was going into this generation ready to buy advertising left and right. Guess what pays journalists bills? If you guess advertising, you'd be correct. It's not some kind of crop circle phenomenon so much as a basic common sense thing. Perhaps the gaming journalists weren't even aware of how they were bought off, but the Xbox was supposed to be the new cool shiny toy.. The one thing not factored in was the Wii taking all of the casual gamers by storm early on and buying the Playstation 3 time to reach mass market price before the 360 completely shut the door on them. That's just God's honest truth.Please Log In to post.
