More PS3's sold than the 360 in Europe

Think the point may have been that PS3 sales are really close taken into account the 360s lead-time and how poor/expensive the PS3 was seen a while back etc.

Considering its an IP that people consider to be a 'playstation' game, thats still pretty damn impressive. But regardless of how well it sold compared to PS3, it outdid the previous sales record for the 360, clearly showing its not declining.

20 millions consoles sold
money mainly made from selling games not the console
why is it dead again?
so you are saying your business brain is to consider it dead when console sales slow down never mind the money you can make with your already installed userbase?
do you wonder why games still come out on ps2?

By how much?? and lets make the math here.. How many 360's are there compared to PS3's ? Twice as many.. So unless GTA IV has sold twice as many on the 360 then its not selling as well as it should on the 360..

Not true at all since no one knows the demographic of the 360 owners. I would imagine there will have been saturation for over 18s purchasing the game whereby doubling the number of consoles does not necessarily double the number of gamers eligible or who desire to buy the game

If Microsoft ever had a chance of winning the console war this time round, they've almost certainly blown it with the RROD. Doesn't matter if it's fixed its legacy will remain with them until the end of the 360's lifespan, and even if they decide to do a next next gen, people will just be that little more warey.

Unfortunately 10mil UK/US loyal xbox followers are simply not enough to keep the console and brand alive, with all the bad press aimed at the general punter public that it has rec'd

The 1 billion cost last ditch effort at adding 3yrs warranty was the final stake.

What we are seeing here is the last of the best days for the 360.. From here onwards it will slowly slide down and down the hill and the PS3 climbs and climbs.

As much as this statement is extremely bold I would have to agree that not only have MS damaged their name within the console industry with the RROD issues but more importantly they haven't really be able to expand their software library beyond the 18-25 year olds. This where Sony will always be one step ahead because of the diversity of their software, something Nintendo have capitalised on this generation.

In addition to this I also feel MS aren't helping their cause by releasing the premium software on the PC (albeit slightly later on), especially when your market is primarily in this age range as most have fairly decent PC's capable of playing these games.
