Every week I see the media create or famitsu sales charts and the overall emphasis I get from it is the PS3 > 360 numbers.

Do the PS3 fanboys here realize that the European and NA gap between 360 and PS3 more then totally offset this? Does everybody here realize that this is japan were talking about.....where the origional XBox only managed to sell 450 000 lifetime (360 now almost at 900k).

We all care about sales, but I think posting hardware charts to claim ownage in one of 360s weakest regions is hardly a good argument.

Me too. You can't claim ownage when you are getting owned yourself. I would understand if some one was posting only PS3 sales with 360 sales in Japan but I never seen that as being the case.

And I'm sure lems won't be championing NPD when they roll around next week, or UK figures, etc. Everyone does it.

ok we get it you're a lemming and it hurts you seeing threads with Japan hardware sales knowing 360 is always in last place along PS2... a suggestion just read the many threads were lemmings remind cows of how 360 is outselling it in other regions and you'll feel better about your beloved console..

In the meantime i'll enjoy playing games (not sales) on both my PS3 & 360 :)

Well as the 360 is outselling the PS3 there, I'm sure the TC is very interested in those numbers, ie the hypocrisy of SW

Look at This chart

Even though the ps3 launched earlier than the 360, the gap isnt that siginficant, we are catching up. I read yesterday that in the last week of Dec in japan, a LOT of ps3 units were sold, I cant find the link but will post if i find it.

In actuality the TC has a point as japan is now a minority holder in the gaming market, I know everyone plays sales but some of the posts regarding japanese sales figures are quite astounding, claims that the ps3 is doing amazingly and the xbox360 is dead based solely on japanese data is somewhat puzzling, as I have said before, Sony have a pivotal year in front of them and we shall wait and see what strategy they employ, but the japanese figures are much less important than say ten years ago and as such are not appropriate to draw conclusions from, My personal opinion is that Europe will once again be the major battle ground where a price cut could see serious gains by sony, gains they need I might add.

I hate people who say this daft stuff. They saved console gaming. PC gaming was always going strong with the Vic 20, C64, Amiga, Spectrum, Amstrad, Apple, IBM, BBC (to name some) all having a huge raft of games.

shame on you forgetting to mention Atari as well :)

But i do agree with you, PC gaming has always been present.. people only remember NES saving the gaming sector (which is partly true) but lets not forget the the contribution above systems gave in the form of games true the years...

I'm not so sure. Considering PS3 and Xbox 360 have sold pretty much the same amount with X360 having a 16 month lead...

Well a few months ago when X360 was briefly leading PS3 in Japan sales those same numbers were still getting posted weekly.
