im sorry but this all means nothing in the real......

there is no comeback for Sony.........they are being buried further into last place every week since june.

360 has more A, AA, AAA games on metacritic.com..........proving you dont need exclusives to get a better library.

if delaying gears to the holiday to get more sales is any indication..........thats when well see another price cut.

54%..........

2005 called, it wants its statistic back.

It was August 2009. I have the issue.

yes but it covered all 360s bought from launch until late 2007 was it?

either way instead of doing Jasper only 360s (the right thing to do at the time), they foolishly did a survey of all 360 purchased throughout its lifespan.

everyone here seems to forget that the origional xbox was better then ps2 in every way hardware wise.

online, 4 controller ports, standard Hardrive, more RELIABLE, better graphics potential

seriosuly...........yes guys, do your research. MS had better hardware then Sony not too long ago

WilliamRLBaker

EXACTLY............meaning that next gen if MS releases a good product that people will pretty much leave the past 360 issues they had behind them.

Still funny how even though everyone knows this the 360 still continues to outsell the ps3.......better to risk RROD then buy a PS3 :P

Thanks for proving my point.

to many console gamers......PCs only purpose of existing is to give consoles ports.......namely 360/pc games.

PC looking out for their young cousin the 360.

2005 called, it wants its statistic back.

* After they took short cuts and launched the console with the highest failure rate in history? Well over 60% for launch models and still significantly high. * After their whole console was built from cheap materials, bad disc drives, weak fans, cheap plastics, noisy, lack of features like WiFi and Blu Ray etc... * After they not only CHARGED FOR ONLINE, but instead of LOWERING the price they RAISE the price? * After they FORCE DEVS to charge for DLC ONTOP of Live fee's... Shouldn't DLC be free because of the Live fee's? Not according to M$. * They abandoned the original Xbox early in it's cycle, and now it seems they are abandoning the 360, is one high profile excluisve a year really enough for the whole second half of this generation? Bungie is gone so Halo is gone, if someone else makes Halo it isn't really Halo... Just the name. Will you put up with M$ Next Gen? Will you put up with Online fee's and Xbox Live getting mroe and more expensive? Will you put up with having to pay for EVERYTHING on Live ONTOP of the Live Fee? Will you put up with faulty cheap badly designed hardware that'll peak graphically extremely early in the generation? Will you put up with Lack of exclusives and living off multiplats? Will you put up with overpriced accessories? Note: I'll make one of these for Sony and Nintendo If this thread has any success :]Insecticidius

someones upset MS business tactics put Sony in last place :)

in all honesty the 360 is a fantastic machine with the best online, many multiplats that ps3 doesnt have access to, and games that are replayed for years after they are released.

Halo, COD, and 3rd party releases.

we arent like ps3 fanboys, who only play exclusives and treat multiplats like garbage.

And which of those PC ports is a system seller? None of them. Games like Risen aren't going to sell a console ...

You think Sony would be dumb enough to release late? the only reason they released after the Xbox was cause of a problem with blu-ay and even after releasing a year later (18 months for europe) huge price tag, no games AND competition from the Wii it's still going to outsell the 360.

Sad really how well MS started and how poor they've become over the past 2 years.

-Snooze-

Lol were talking about a consoles first year on the market. it sells itself on being new alone. all im saying is MS has plenty ways to secure games.

Sony really surpised a lot of us this gen by showing how dumb they can be :P

Sad? they are again making more profit then last gen, they have way more sales then last gen, and have way more develoepr support.

Its sad just how far sony fell from the top. the fact that your content with them taking 2nd place eventually" just shows how far the standards have been lowered.

lol keep it coming, this is fun.

I actually don't care where sony finishes. I dont own a PS3. I own an Xbox thank you very much :)

I do however feel that much like sony before them, MS need a reality check. MS dominating the early stages of this gen led sony to create some excellent new IPs in order to lure in customers whilst MS havbe just purchases timed exclusives (poor ones) and timed DLC(Terrible idea)

MS started this gen with the need to impress and they did, the creation of Xbox Live 2.0, titles like Kameo, Gears etc. They've become stale lately, content with coasting until the end of the gen. If that's what YOU want from a console manufacturere then fair enough. I just expect more :)

thats how industry works. you deliever in the early stages and then you coast until the next generation.

I dont blame MS for widning down in its consoles 5th year. thats business. Kinect casual popularity and 3rd party devs will carry 360 for years to come without MS direct support.

Sony should have done that with PS3, deliever in the beginning.
