Almost 6 years into this gen, which console the majority here in SW prefers so far?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Most likely the PS3. I like 'em both very much, but the PS3 is giving me more bang for my buck now. :)
System Wars: PS3 Rest of the world: 360UCF_Knightnot at all where i live . befor 2009 it would be the 360 but since then ps3 has just taken over here

IMO XBox360, for my personal taste it has a better library of exclusives. But I woudn't mind a ps3 either.

Sure there's probably a load of PS3 owners on Timmy's block, but that doesn't make the PS3 more popular overall. I'm not sure how this is confusing you.

Maybe you didn;t understand his post., 360 is beating PS3 WORLDWIDE so that would mean the WORLD so far prefers the 360 (ie the WORLD does not include regions):shock:

I'm not sure how this is confusing you. you said it your self. your assuming the 360 is more popular and you do not equal the world I'm not sure how this is confusing you. different levels of popularity in different regions All those regions are part of the world. It is a cohesive whole. The 360 has sold more consoles worldwide. You know.. since worldwide consists of the world. That would make the 360 more popular in the world. The PS3 could be more popular at my local elementary school, but that would not make it more popular in the world. There's no easier way I can explain this phenomena.

Oh I got ya.
So the 360 has sold a decent bit more than the PS3. But the world really prefers the PS3 because people could have purchased more of the console they like less.
I see I see. Perhaps all those closet PS3 fans are just waiting for the tenth or so price drop. Or they could stop buying two 360's, don't they know that's not helping Sony any?

Yes the world prefers the PS3 over 360 although it has sold millions less because of Spartas situation you heard it hear first, this place never ceases to amaze me.

Your friends don't = the world which is the post you repsonded to. Every consumer has a choice to which console they want to buy at the store well millions more PREFERRED to purchase the Wii over the 360\PS3 therefore the majority prefer it understand. Multi console ownership is not the norm, and your situation is not indicative of everyone else. The mojority of buyers PREFERRED the Wii over the other consoles, so please stop the spin.
[QUOTE="TH1Sx1SxSPARTA"]prefered=/= popularUCF_KnightNo. Preferred = More sales. A concept that seems to be difficult. nope not always
[QUOTE="TH1Sx1SxSPARTA"]prefered=/= popularUCF_KnightNo. Preferred = More sales. A concept that seems to be difficult.
So gamers like myself who have givin both the ps3 and xbox360 a +1 to their sale totals not get to have a preferred console?
I posted this in another thread but I feel it's worth posting here as well because it's relevant...
A little old but there's a lot of truth in here whether you like it or not

Single console owners outnumber multi console owners.

Sparta actually makes a decent point. You can measure sales, but you can't measure personal preference. And sales and preference aren't the same. I own both but prefer the PS3, so how does my 360 sale equate to 360 preference? I even have a friend who only has a 360. He bought it at launch and built up a collection. After playing PS3 at mine and other people's houses though, he said that he actually likes the PS3 better, but with his huge 360 game collection he sees no point in switching over now. And he won't buy a PS3 cause his wife won't let him. So he is a 360 customer, but he prefers the PS3. I'm not saying one is preferred to the other, I'm saying sales, especially when they are that close, is not way to determine preference. It would take a huge poll to determine that.Please Log In to post.
