DarkSniper5174d ago (Edited 5174d ago )

Another fantastic week for Sony Computer Entertainment as PlayStation®3 dominates total console sales.

No other console has come close to what PlayStation®3 in terms of overall sales numbers. Which means that PlayStation continues to remain the global household icon in interactive entertainment.

With Street Fighter X Tekken selling twice the amount when compared to it's multiplatform counterpart, it's easy to see why Capcom and Sony enjoy a wonderful business relationship. If you are a fighting game enthusiast and you're part of the fighting game movement, The complete version of Street Fighter X Tekken can only be found on PlayStation®3 and PlayStation®Vita platforms.

Once again, Dark Sniper is ecstatic to see PlayStation continue to stamp it's place as the worldwide leader in consumer electronics. With PlayStation units attached to every household home across the globe, Sony is in prime position to make history to three-peat by winning three console generations consecutively.

This guy cracks me up. xD

MasterCornholio5173d ago (Edited 5173d ago )

If there's anyone that you can count on to post in numbers articles.

It's Dark Sniper.

Lol

On topic: I'm happy to see that Vita sales didn't drop as quickly as the ones from Japan at launch. Hopefully there will be some blockbuster games for it this holiday season that will cause a substantial increase in sales. I guess the press can stop posting doom articles based on the sales of the Vita. Because while it might not outsell the 3DS it will still be a success for Sony and a viable platform for developers to produce games on.

He's actually Jack Tretton

CarlitoBrigante5173d ago

Carlito agrees, no other console offers what the PlayStation 3 system offers, with the PS3, you don't need any other console.

yabhero5173d ago

Sony won the last Two gens but they lost this one...

AWBrawler5173d ago

PS3? Threepeat? Does this guy not see the 360 numbers? And let's not forget the elephant in the room (Wii). Fanboys are ridiculous

Fot all its worth, 70,000 the psv is behind the DS and its still selling at a full retail so sony are making a healthy profit on each one. Should pick up even more when more games start coming.

Ps3 is staying consistant as is the ps3. The Ds & Psp are starting to wain now but that is expected after a long time in the industry.

AWBrawler5173d ago

I really do not get the PS3 elitism. I owned one, and the games the fnboys brag on aren't even the best games it has to offer.

I facepalm every time I hear a PS3 owner say they don't like MGS4, Folklore, Ratchet Future Perfect, LBP, Rune Factory, or Tales of Graces, yet they proclaim it's awesomeness and beat their chests.

at least Xbox fans have played their good games, I dare you to find an Xbox fanboy who hates both Halo and Gears. And we all know Nintendo fanboys swear by their big names.

PS2 will go down as one of the greatest consoles ever. FACT! But lets be real, PS3 did not win this gen sales or game wise. That doesn't make it any less awesome, and if you like it you like it. Just stop acting like anyone who doesn't like it is either a Rookie/Casual gamer or and idiot.

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

dveio17d 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.

Jingsing17d 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.

Tanktopmaster9217d ago

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

S2Killinit17d ago

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

Jingsing17d 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.

Tanktopmaster9217d 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
