I compare year to year sales. To give you a good way as to what to expect in sales. For August 06 xbox sold 259k in 07 they sold 277k. In sept 06 277k to 07 528k. Now oct. 06 218k to 366k. In nov and other nov of past it did 511k. So Nov 07 360 should do in the 470 or more. PS3 has no data to go by as it wasnt here last year. And in Nov 06 it was low to the low launch numbers they did. But if we go by the highest the PS3 has had is Dec 06 with 491k. The question is.? Can the PS3 be as popular...

The total software sales for the whole week.

360=1,601,115
WII= 915,226
PS2= 624,008
PS3= 417,667

If you follow total software sales for the week the 360 in NA destroys every one every week. This week again they outsold the PS2+PS3 combined at 1,041,000 to 360 1,601,000. Even if you delete the sales GH3 on 360 the total of the rest of the sales will total 800k just 200k shy of PS2 + PS3 total sales including GH3 for those systems. Just a...

Aprox. In April I went to BB. (been a customer since 98 maybe) The guy at the counter said "Your card has expired you need to renew it." I was like "o.k". He said I need a credit card so I can renew it. I gaved him my Bank check card with the VISA logo. He said "No I need a real Credit Card not a bank card with visa on it." I said "ummmm WHY it's accepted like a credit card every where I go, including to pay gas." He said "our policy requires a rea...

This game is crap. Is this a PS2 game ported over straight to 360.? WOW just horrible. Fifa 08 is a wayyyyy better game. How does Konami get a way with murder.?

Means more than anything. Xbox is already attracting the hardcore gamers. (Sony hardcores will never buy a xbox) Medium to casual players keep hearing how great xbox is, along with Bioschock, Halo3, now Half Life2. With Mass Effect coming in NOV. Word of mouth spreads and I see two things happening in America. The more and more people buy 360s' or wiis' the more PS3 wont never hit big. WHY? Because lets face it Hardcore gamers and sony addicts can sell to a certain amount of people. In order ...

Halo3 destroyed Zelda. Link has nothing on Chief. 3.3 million to 224k on the DS. JUST WOW. great signs for Bioschock and Madden. As I yet to buy Bioshock but I will probably buy Orange Box first and Bioshock in the holidays after Mass Effect. Now for HS doing only 139k is kinda a dissapointing task. Motorstorm hit 194k in it's first month back in March and they where less PS3's out back then to more PS3's out now in Sept. So HS didn't have the appeal like some of you wanted. LIAR doing only 5...

Wii did a hell of a good job. NIN popularity is back. I am glad to see that. X360 went from 170k in july to 276k in august to 528k in Sept. Nice jump due to great sales of Madden to Bioshock to Halo3. Now on PS3 159k in July to 131k in august to 119k in Sept. Even after it's first price drop in July still can't crack the 200k. They really need that 40gb for 400$. Overall sept was the best selling September in the last 6 years. Back in 01 was when the PS2 was at the HELM, was the best Sept of ...

AllanWakker wont be playing ALAN WAKE when it comes out on X360. But we all know what he will say "I have a quad core intel and a 8800ultra to play it on PC so who needs the xbox.. XBOX SUCKS".

One of these for the only reason of putting a cheap streamer on my BR TV. Every other streamer cost 300 and don't play games. With this I get a streamer to my BR tv + 5 games so my son can play (he loves feeding frenzy and boom boom rocket) + 5 more trial games. Some of you really love to spin things around hu. I sometimes think either people are joking and if they are not joking they are dammm retarded.

I hope they sell cable card or dish tuners on retail so more people will jump in using MCE for recording HD shows. Although ati has a cable card tuner it is only bundle on HP or Dell online orders. I am waiting for NOV so I can order my quad core with cable tuner from HP. I will also buy a 1tb hard drive for just to keep my recordings. Once I get two tuners in my MCE I will say goodbye to my faithful Motorola DVR with it's lousy 160gb. So yes MS has alot of ways to keep the lead on Using MS s...

Not just helped itself but seemed to have helped out the 1 year old title of Gears @ #24. With motorstorm sales also being counted with the free 80gb ps3. Who knows how many are them real sales compared to freebie sales. I am guessing 400k retail sales and 100k free 80gb sale.
The thing is this software will dictate the budget of the games and whether there are sequels to some or not; or future releases on certain platforms and this is something to think about. NBA 08 PS3 (not to be co...

Always talking about the POWER of green or the POWER of Blue. Who cares. I for one am looking at the Aracde bundle as I need a cheap streamer box and since the X360 comes with streaming capabalities and dvd playback, for daddy and BOOM BOOM rocket for my son. I would put the new HDMI 360 in my LV with my 20gb, and put the older xbox, in my BR, so I can stream stuff I download from Vongo or have recorded using my Digital Tuner with cable on Vista Media center. The streamers like apple ITV, lin...

Arcade pack for 279, I need another cheap video streamer and with dlink or linksys versions going for 300. This new aracde pack will be loved by my son, he loves BOOM BOOM rocket and Me so I can stream HD and non HD video to my Bedroom TV. I have Vongo + a Digital Tuner using Vista media center, I record un-encrypted HD channels. I will put the HDMI new xbox on my LV and put the older xbox on BR. By the end of the year I will give myself a 120gb drive and put the 20gb on the BR box. For those...

MGS 2 worldwide did I think around 6.5million. MGS 3 worldwide did around 3.9 million. That is almost half of its audience. By the time MGS 3 hit there where wayyyyy more PS2 sold then when MGS2 hit. With more PS2 out there and more people caring about MGS3 it should have outsold MGS2 but it didn't. It lost 2.6 million fans. That tells me that people didn't care about MGS as alot of you think so. What makes you think MGS 4 will even be s system seller.? The only ones that keep there user base...

Would be great. All the future third party extenders will support Divx and their partners doing those DVR boxes using Vista also support Divx. I smell xbox Divx/XVID support soon.

The NPD numbers speak for themselves about whether it's worth the extra 100bucks hu.

I DEC of 07. To get the Elite 120bg. Most likely by then they should be all 65mn. And give my 06 pro 20gb to my 8 year old.

Almost A year means 10 or 11 months. Which is what he said. He didn't say A Year. He said ALMOST. Learn how to read.

But didn't MGS3 sold only 3.7 million world wide.? While Halo 2 sold 9.2 world wide. Also MGS sells good in Japan, Halo doesn't.

But when comparing PS2 launch in America and 1 year later it had sold almost 8 million consoles. No competition in 2000 to 2001. FWD to 2007. With two good competitors the PS3 has sold 1.75mil in 10 months. A far far shy of what the PS2 had. Failure will only be decided if 3rd parties start to lower PS3 quantity of titles. Who knows where the market will be in April 08.
