This was a thread about 7th gen consoles sales; your logic applies to both the PS3 and XBox 360, as such it is irrelevant and merely derails actually debate.

Convenient. Anything PS3 for you is a derailment from what you would prefer to hear.

You are completely off topic in this thread. Get back to the 28 million Xbox 360's as opposed to the 21.x million Ps3's sold in quicker time.

I see IAP is now banging on about the PS2 in this thread too ...more evidence for him being Fnucknut/UPV, in addition to his comments about his 12 year old child he seems to feel the need to share with us. All very familiar...

LOL.

I suppose the majority of the PS3 user base actually could afford to upgrade from the excellent last-gen PS2.

The rest got caught up on Blu-Ray and KZ2 hype :D

In my simplistic view. If the PS3 hardware outlasts the Xbox hardware whIch are plaqued due to constant RROD failures then YES the PS3 must be better concerning hardware. Can for sure not be worse. Are you refering to the few pixels and frames per second again? KZ2 DEBUNKS THAT FALACY!

Anyway back to topic. Wonder how long that 8 million advantage wil last during 2009. We all wait in anticipation for M$'s next step. We Droids can only benefit as by dropping the price of the Xbox to a point more in line of what the hardware is worth will benefit us as well as we can then purchase the Xbox and help increase the sales numbers thus keeping you hapy and give you all the prove and comparisons to show why the PS3 is the quality wise the better choice now and in future. Sales numbers do not indicate the better console, only the more popular one which is affordble. The WII is clearly proving that point. Oh I forgot. The WII and PS2 are not "consoles"

RROD is a well documented fault in the 2005-2007 models, and those are the models failing from red ring related failures. At least, with a proof of purchase you get a new replacement unit within 3 years of purchase.

It's not the same for a PS3, be it YLOD (yellow light of death), Blu-Ray drive, laser failure or death from firmware update outside the 1 year warranty period.

In terms of R&D, MS pumped millions into the Xbox 360 plaform, and technically speaking its a great piece of technology. A Google search can give you the technical specifications.

In terms of sales, 2009 might be the saving grace for Sony. It's been a damp squib in terms of sales so far.

No, and the XBox 360 hasn't sold 29million either. But soon, my precious.

XBox 360 28.22M
PS3 20.22M

Exactly 8M units!

Check the official sony report. Ps3 is at 21.3million. You're using vgchartz as a source which isn't very credible. They inflated their 360 numbers

I am using the numbers the Xbots suggested here. The real joke is when I used your 21,3 million figure the whole Xbot clan and sundry jumped on me and refered back to the VGA charts figure. So I thought If I use their own figures they have no choice but except that and then have to concentrate on the core issue and is that the more "expensive", Xbot claimed "SubStandard PS3" has met the total sales figures of the Xbox since it's inception except for the full year head start M$ enjoyed. That failed too as they cannot and will not discuss true facts, only distorted and twisted views. They only believe in the conjectured "Wonky" maths presented here by some higly acclaimed member.

Haha! Yes, Sony wouldn't possibly inflate their figures, but a third party source definitely inflates only the XBox 360 figures. *chuckle* Sony really did number on your head didn't they? :D

Hahahahah, you're a regular old riot.
Surely they'd have been exposed for inflating numbers to investors?
Its a site filled with guesstimations and fanboys.
But if you wanna believe them it's fine by me

Are you that paranoid that you believe everyone else is out there to "get" the PS3 and Sony? Yes, the entire world is again the PS3, all those websites and new headlines. Or... just maybe... everyone isn't wrong.

No, I would not trust Sony's figures. A company auditing itself never ended in any trouble, hey? Don't be naive, Sony is appealing to its investors with the numbers.

Oh, but I forget, the rest of the world is out to take the PS3 down. Damn, where did I put my tinfoil hat? :rolleyes:

But VGchartz is the only place reporting that figure :confused:
Thats my point so you go on believing the guessttimation website!
