madcap_laughs Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Wow that is alot. If Sony doesn't get their head together with the Ps3 though the 360 will just own these results. I doubt that any console will EVER be able to match these results, or even come close No company has even come within 50 million of these sales, the closest being 50 million consoles behind, nearly 20 years ago. I doubt that the PS3 or 360 will sell over 20 million Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macmaster92 Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 You have the realize though that these new consoles are going to be around for a long time before new ones come out. We keep seeing mroe and more alterations for The 360 the Wii and the Ps3. I mean how much better can you get then what we have right now? Their is only so much you can push the graphics until either the price explodes or the T.V.s can't handle it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flametrooper Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Sony sucks. (Sorry, I just had to say that.) Okay, I edited so this isn't complete spam. The Ps3 is losing to the Wii and 360, and the PSP isn't that great a handheld when you get down to it. Sony fanboys irritate the hell out of me, I'm sorry.

And that is opposed to being irritated by fanboys who are loyal to a company who have admitted that every single one of their consoles is defective in some way?

Chocobodude0 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 The PS2 was also out a while before the Xbox hit shelves. It was a great console and was pretty important to bringing gaming into a higher mainstream level. ...Which the Wii's doing now. :P It's kinda sad to see the PS3 not live up to it's predecessor at this point. :?

underu2000 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Uh, i didn't mind fanboys till now. I happen to own both xbox and the 360, and i feel offended by this. And so, i reveal to you, the horrible-ness of the ps3 sales! http://nexgenwars.com/ <----Very useful site. The 360 has sold nearly 8 million more than the ps3, standing at approx 11.4 mil and 3.7 mil. The wii is catching up to the 360 at an alarming rate, with 8.6 mil. And the ps2 may be selling more than the 360, but its also selling more than the ps3, its own improvement. That is wierd. In fact, the ps3 was dead last (not sure of now) in sales IN JAPAN, behind handhelds and the American 360. Wonder where those 96 million went, huh? Mind you, i think the ps3 will make a comeback eventually, in a few years. The ps3 has a longer lifespan than the 360 and much more so than the wii. All it has to do is to establish an install base, and its superior hardware will outlast either rival. But until then, go xbox! Life is a joke. Yeah, I don't get it either.

blade995 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Some people had to buy 2 and 3 ps2's because they kept breaking out of warranty. That does not mean 96million unique people prefer the console. Look at the current generation fanboy. The PS3 is in last :P . Don't worry you will grow out of liking Sony like I did :lol: . The Wii might come close to reaching ps2 sales in 5 years. They can't even keep them on the store shelves and it was released in November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mixand Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 but does that mean its a better console? maybe because theirs more fanboys like you.

Kiriyama Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Ugh, I hate fanboys. PS2 has been out longer, is more well known due to the Playstation and had a more wide array of games. Look all the next gen consoles are great. Well I'll still to try a PS3. Wii, well its great for some exclusive games. 360, excelllent gameplay on games and easy to grasp.

Guest Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 The PS2 has also been around for longer. But either way I prefer the PS2 over any Xbox (360) anyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megakiller32 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 The PS3 needs some good advertising, not some crazy story about semi naked women jumping on a bed while suitcases explode. (Thats the advert i saw in England.) Then it finishes with a naked women on the toilet peeing, saying "This is living." DID SOME MENTALLY DAMAGED RAPE VICTIM THINK THIS ADVERT UP? Despite the advert, i still like the PS3. Quit Runescape 30th May 2006.Thanks to Hawkxs for my signature :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sycosis5 Posted July 13, 2007 Author Share Posted July 13, 2007 the reason the PS3 isnt selling is the price and there are few games for it but once Metal gear solid 4,devil may cry 4,GTA4 and assassins creed come out im geting my ps3. The point im making is that no console has ever.EVER.Sold as many units as the ps2 and the X-BOX is 94 MILLION UNITS BEHIND! And the ps2 was out a year or two before the x box i will admit that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps going from such a strong position, to a console that's not selling off the shelves just a few months after it's released is even more astoundingly bad IMO... The Wii's actually selling faster at the moment than the PS2, so don't sing your glory songs yet. :wink: | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doughnut Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Play station has been around for what? A decade and a half now? For 6 years Sony had been collecting fans, after those six years Microsoft comes along. With a 6 year fan base, plus the fact that Play station 2 was a good system isn't it logical that they would be number 1? Plus since the prices have dropped so much, the xbox owners who don't have enough money for next gen may go with a play station 2. (Also, what the **** is with all these topics that try to start arguments?)

adam_ross0 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Then again, as was said earlier, a lot of those sales were resold consoles. I know of about 3 people who have had problems..two were fried completely. and the other we had to take apart and fix the problem. It was a simple error that could have easily been fixed with another 2 days or so of delay -.- and there's also another thing..yes, the ps2 was the greatest console of last gen. Yes, the xbox was kind of a me-too console...yes, the gamecube failed..but hey, Microsoft and nintendo learned from last gen..now they have some of the greatest consoles I've ever seen. Sony? In my opinion, they just made a 3rd Ps2..except buggier, and it won't play Ps2 games :notalk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doomy Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Probaly because ps2 was released first, so everyone bought and then realised they didn't need both and then didn't but xbox? XBox360 will sell more then ps3 imo. Doomy edit: I like sheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
