  • 360 GTA IV Outselling PS3 Version 2-to-1 - Considering that there are significantly more 360's in homes than PS3's, it seems a sure bet that the 360 version will outsell the PS3 version no matter what the ratio.

I couldn't give a $hit what M$ says is selling more on what format re; GTA4. It's superb graphicaly on PS3, and gamers should be just having FUN!
Instead we have tossing adults arguing just like school kids, who actualy OWN M$/Sony. FFS!!!!

DO i give a fuck about downloadable content? Nope. Is my PS3 online yet? Nope.
Do i care? Nope :roll:

Does PS3 play BD? Yep. Does Xbox360? Nope :lol: Is HD dead? Yes.

I personaly think that it's more European adults that own PS3, for the simple fact that it's the best BD player on the market and rigged up to a home cinema 7.1 system (via HDMI) blows the competition away.
Game sales are nothing when the hardware performs multiple tasks.
Like-for-like, the PS3 destroys the Xbox -we all know that, other than in the US.

you must be the kinda person that closes his eyes and ears refusing to realize what is going on around you. xbox has outsold the ps3 in every country save for japan. For the majority of people gameplay > graphics, apparently not you. Game sales are in fact everything regardless of how well your rig is. It could be the best rig in the entire world, but if no one buys its games no one gives a shit about it. Welcome to the real world.

PS3 sales surpass Xbox 360 in Europe, says Sony
At Sony's PlayStation Day event, the company announced that it has sold more PS3 consoles than Microsoft has sold Xbox 360 consoles in Europe, despite the earlier launch of the latter.

SCEE president and CEO David Reeves said that Sony has sold 12 million PSP handhelds and 48 million PS2 consoles in Europe.

"I'm also delighted to announce today that we have sold over 5 million PlayStation 3's throughout Europe," Reeves said.

"We are particularly proud of this as it has been achieved in a similar time frame as PlayStation 2 which retailed, if you remember, at a significantly lower price."

Reeves noted that Sony has been consistently outselling its closest competitor - referring to the Xbox 360 - since October 2007, even with the latest price drop. He made no reference to Nintendo Wii sales in the region.

"I am delighted to be able announce today that we have sold more PlayStation 3's throughout Europe than Xbox 360 - even though they launched sixteen months before PS3."

"These numbers are a testament to the strength of the PlayStation brand throughout our region, the ever-increasing number of titles being launched, the rich content on offer and its appeal to different demographics and cultures."

Your the kind of person who doesn't obviously do research before putting your mouth in gear! :roll:

Europe is the hardest nut for M$ to crack -always has been.
Besides, as a PLAIN console it (XBox plain vanilla) has been cut down to barely NOTHING to sell it. It doesn't do nothing else without buying the defunct HD player.
