"Microsoft confirmed that 300,000 units were available for the European launch".
"By the end of 2005, Microsoft stated they sold 500,000 consoles in the region".
ssoooo....600k over a single weekend versus 500k upto end of 2005?
Is this me knowing it Mart? Tut tut..........
"if the PS3 will sell about the same as the 360, or just slightly more, the PS3 won't close the gap".
If it sells &qu...
I know one of the citys in the game ;)
"Do Sony fanboys understand that it's hard to catch up when the PS3 constantly world wide sells less then the 360?"
And just to be sociable............you might want to throw the european numbers in that equation to, if we are talking worldwide numbers here...............so add at least..... 600k on top of those figures you mentioned, and i think if my math is correct.....PS3 closed the gap by a healthy amount.
Come now Martin..........."buying an extra HDMI cable for 70 dollars".
Or maybe you could buy one for 10 "bucks"?........
GREAT! but this article has nothing to do with the PS3? ........"Is the backlash justified"? maybe i missed something?
My wheels gathering a wee bit of dust while i play F1, but won`t take long to dust down once this arrives!!
tut tut! feeling defensive this morning are we? Nothing wrong with my 360 since i bought it, and zero problems with my PS3.
"Every PS3 is defective out of the box so Sony can cut the cost on them, not to mention the Controllers are defective and people have disc loader problems".
Yes, ive seen loads of these storys, more everyday infact! Best raise the white flag now huh?
On topic.
I don`t think the backlash is fair, its no...
Are you on drugs?
"Europe isn't like aliens compared to the rest of the world"
WTF ??
hahahaha!!!.............nice! Do often laugh at your own comments? oops, best get another bubble.
Give it up Mart with all these sales figures, your becoming just far too boring!!! I liked you much more when you just spouted pure sh!te!!
Strange also there are no formats listed on the GTA IV website? trailver debuts on the 29th........Microsoft announcement on the 29th............"Could&qu ot; be an interesting day tommorow.
So is this Microsoft doing a Sony and "screwing" us europeans?
lol, no magic 8balls im afraid, but common says things will wilt somewhat, do you think they will continue to sell 165,000 every week in the UK from now on? This is an exagerated figure of course but the meaning is the same. Btw i picked a PS3 up on friday and am over the moon, im just not a fanboy as maybe you thought i was?
Simple answer is no...
The thing about those 70k UK 360 numbers is just how many of these were bought and put straight on ebay to sell on?
600k is a great achievment, no amount of twisting from certain "individuals" or amateur anlysts can deny the fact....an especially great achievement considering its a 425 squid machine!! Well done Sony, done something right for a change. Now try and build on this........How many would they of sold if a 100 notes cheaper? Naturally things will drop off o...
Exellent figures, wonder what the "attach rate" is? I bought 4 games, optical cable and Blue Ray remote. I already had a QED hdmi cable.
"The PS2 was 10 times slower than the Xbox" ??
Sorry, the team you control are called "Jericho team", and the place is Al-Khali, my bad.
Games Blade.....The machine NEEDS games......If they make them....they (customers) will come (buy)!!!!!!!
