Dante Posted March 14, 2008 Author Posted March 14, 2008 PS3 outselling 360. Very nice. but the Xbox360 software is doing better.
McMad Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 PS3 outselling 360. Very nice. If you are remarking the fact that the PS3 is selling at a faster rate than the 360 then yes you are correct. If you are remarking that the PS3 has sold more units than the 360 in total then you're wrong. The 360 has been on retail for over two years now and that graph only details the first 18 months of each of the consoles' existence. The PS3 has some catching up to do although it could very well take over the 360 around the release of MGS4 or next Christmas.
Caris Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 I just meant in January and February 08' the PS3 has been on top.
Fierce_LiNk Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 To be fair to Caris, he did say "outselling", and not "outsold."
McMad Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 Fair enough. The sentence could still be interpreted as; 'the PS3 is outselling the 360 - in total'. Sad to see the 360 coming in last place but at least the software sales are still going strong.
Dante Posted March 14, 2008 Author Posted March 14, 2008 Going get crazy sales each month in US now. March- Smash Brothers April- GTAIV and Mario Kart May- Wii Fit June- MGS4 and Ninja Gaiden II
