Everything looks nice as expected

Dante1124929d ago (Edited 4929d ago )

Yeah man. Great sales for the consoles. Glad to hear that the PS3 finally tied the 360 in their 70 million sales news as well (or shipments don't matter since the retailers buy the consoles). Having a good laugh here thinking out some of the sales enthusiasts and they're sayings. Guess they were wrong huh (Ps3 would never tie or possible become the second selling console ever.) Looks like the Ps3 has sold more units in lesser time as well. Here was my reaction to the news.

Also, I hope everyone has a good Thanksgiving this year. I'm preparing crow for certain people this Thanksgiving. Don't worry, crow being served in very popular in my country.

Edit: @ LX General

How do you feel about Sony's news? :)

LX-General-Kaos4929d ago

The news was pretty positive actually

ritsuka6664929d ago

Nice milestone, but the impression of catching up with 360 is false.

andibandit4929d ago (Edited 4929d ago )

im eager to hear MS news of sold,units, i imagine Halo4 + BO2 must've boosted sales quite alot.

BO2 also boosted PS3 sales, but considering the game is half finished on PS3 it problably works out as a big advantage for MS.

@Dante112,

SONY wouldnt say this in a letter to its share holders! M$ did! They told the world at E3 they led The WORLD in console sales(2011)! See, a statement like that if not true would trigger a lawsuit! Attach a name to SONY's briefings...

How can you catch M$ in a half year? And still layoff & close development houses? No, this is a mindshare report to excite the SONY Fanbase.

Truth is in a companies parts:
LBP Carting- 55,000 units sold in 1st week!
SONY Move sales were also fabricated: no one is buying games for that!

So much for an exclusive!

M$ has led the competition in consecutive months spanning 2 years, no way in hell SONY is anywhere near M$'s 360.

i have to eat my hat... Halo 4 moved "some" hardware...

Dante1124929d ago

I take it that Vgchartz is legit today? Ok. Great sales for Halo 4. Moved quite a lot of consoles.

fabod864929d ago

Is the only indication we have for a global vision until the official data from all the three companies. My comment was more for the fact that i thought that all the Halo fans that bought the game on day 1 had the console yet, so they wouldn't have inflated on the hardware sales. Maybe it's due to the custom 360 bundled with the game.

fabod, I do know two friends that already had a 360, but bought the Halo 360 anyways. They just liked the way it looked so they bought the special edition console. I'm sure it pushed a couple consoles though.

kneon4929d ago

Well I have 2 friends that got RROD on out of warranty consoles while playing Halo 4, so it will move at least 2 new consoles :)

But seriously, Halo does seem to move consoles, though I don't understand why. Surely if you're a Halo fan you already have an XBox, and if you aren't a Halo fan what is the likelihood that you've going to suddenly buy a console to play Halo 4?

xPhearR3dx4929d ago

Halo 4 Limited Edition Console. Nuff said. Halo freaks want that. One of my friends has 2 Xbox 360's and he bought the Halo console just because it was a Halo themed console.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio16d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing16d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9216d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit16d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing16d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9216d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
