Anyone know the accurate count of total units shipped for the 360? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Console_wars#Worldwide_sales_figures_5 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Console_wars#Worldwide_sales_fi... shows PS3 outselling by a hair xbox, but i've seen far more people w/x360 than ps3.
- Irregardless 14y ago> but i've seen far more people w/x360 than ps3. That would make sense if you live in the U.S. The PS3 is ahead worldwide, but the 360 is winning by a landslide in the U.S.
- jcurbo 14y agoIndeed, in my completely anecdotal experience, the Sony products (PS3, PSP, Vita) seem far more popular overseas (especially in Japan) than the 360. Microsoft has had a hard time getting the 360 going in Japan.
- OmarIsmail 14y agoThis isn't actually true. Numbers from around the world are hazy but it looks like the 360 is ahead worldwide by a million or so. The lead will be extended over the holiday with Sony potentially surpassing next year since jan-sep are the months Sony outsells the 360 worldwide.
- purplelobster 14y agoThe 360 has sold way better in the US, while the PS3 has sold better in Europe and Japan. Their individual advantages and weaknesses evens out pretty much. Overall, the trend seems to be that the European market is becoming as important as the US market, while Japan is increasingly insignificant (every new generation sells less in Japan)
