Called it back on sohh. By the end of the gen you'd all see who the prophet is. Trashbox loses for not catering to international gamers and devolving gaming into pc filth. The world has spoken. We dont want a console of pc ports.
Welp.. it was inevitable. I'm just sad that some of you won't accept the fact that 360 plain and simple got outsold though. Trends from years ago called this happening, due to the PS3's success outside of the US.
Barely use my Xbox my damn self now, BUT.... that controller
, I play all my PC games using that.

Courtdog is in the thread like this
All companies report units SHIPPED in their financial reports. That's the only thing they can go by and they are legally bound to do this. It's the reason they try to pump out as many units at the end of their quarters/fiscal year (I work in distribution, I see it all the time in the distribution centers I travel to and work in).
It's impossible to really know what retailers SOLD in their stores not having each and every store/retailer's selling data. Some of your major chains can report this back to Sony and MS, but not everyone can or wants to. All MS/Sony/Nintendo knows is when a retailer places orders for additional units when their stock runs out.
yea lets keep posting SHIPPED numbers

Of course they are. Instead of "fixing" them, replace it with a new unit which you can technically count as a sale.
@MightyHealthy did you get replacement 360s or your original fixed with the amount of consoles you lost due to RROD and other shyt? Keep in mind yall that this man, Xbot King, went through like 7 or 8 360s...

meh, that was my first post in this thread...regardless I wouldn't be bragging about hustlin' backwards which is what paying for XBL is.
What's also commendable is the fact that even if PS3 wasn't at 77 million PS3's shipped worldwide, it's still crazy that it reached that number compared to the 360 which launched a year earlier and at a much cheaper price.
No, thats the whole bullshyt that been going on this gen.
Microsoft reports systems sold, sony and nintendo report systems shipped
Once this practice was known, Microsoft started reporting shipped as well because shipped will always outnumber sold
Sony was doing this so investors wouldn't leave sony because the ps3 was about to make sony backrupt
There was article after article of ppl saying how sony should abandon the ps3 before its too late
They didn't... MGS4 came out which helped drive up sales
The HD-DVD battle also helped once they finally won there
And the only reason all this even happened is because sony wanted to push a new medium onto the world
BLU-RAY
Sony gambled on the fact that ppl would adopt the new format, and that alone is the only reason ps3 is even in the conversation still.
Now nobody is buying one for just a game console. They buy it with the thought process of they'll play games on it too
But when sales come out for systems or games, the ps3 is always a joke
Everything I just said is FACT
I could prove it by showing you how much sony loses each year on the ps3
From 2006... Sony Losing Big Money on PS3 Hardware | PCWorld
To 2012... The Escapist : News : Sony Losing Money on PSP, PS3
People who are "fans" of ps3 to the point you call them "fanboys"
They are the ones putting up a front like if the ps3 isn't this dead console that can't control its online network. Its top game has been plagued by cheaters for years, nobody talks about it like if its not a big deal
Then they want to kill the messenger...
If you don't care, why are you speaking about it in a thread that you freely choose to enter
um yeah but your name is cockmeatsandwitch... u will never win courtdog
Went through 2 myself,most of my friends who have xboxes got RROD too
Switched to PS3, never looked back
