Also, Id just like to ask people where these sales numbers are coming from?
The ONLY play where the Xbox sells well is USA.
USA:
- Wii
- Xbox
- PS3
JAP:
- PS3 (1st place last 2 months, uesd to be 2nd)
- Wii
- Xbox (Always been last place in Japan except 2 months last year here it took 2nd.)
EU:
- Wii
- PS3 (PS3 is always 2nd Europe, only country its not is UK…)
- Xbox
We are surrounded by American media telling us that Xbox is the best here in UK because we Bum USA.
In the USA is rare that people have Ps3s because there media rams Microsoft down there throat, its a shame really.
oh and Japan wont like buying Cheap trash, Honur ect too
And your Warped sales numbers are also not taking into account that Xbox had a 1 year headstart, and yet its still being outsolf in Europe and Japan.
gf.
Japs will totally buy cheap trach, Wii dishonours the whole fucking industry

i could never convert to mac.
that would be like leaving sins for msv
although id never swich to mac, they are very pretty, and good luck joining MSv there website went down 2 years ago xD
I'm so glad there are people who know what theyre talking about.
I despise people who overlook the major problems of the xbox and the sheer cheapness of it.
It's not like i'm saying "LOLZOR RROD HAHAHA!
I too owned an xbox,emphasis on the owned.
I was so pissed off that i was paying for internet gaming when i could get it for free.#I don't even need to justify why the ps3 is better because nathan and the others have done it.
It's a good job i take very few of this clans gaming oppinions seriously.
Otherwise i think the only game i'd own would be haze.

great salesmen and corprate junk does not make for good gameplay.
I don't sit here fapping over sales.
"5 million copies sold UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! money shot"The fact that sales for xbox and wii are more than the ps3 just proves my point.
human race are retarded and will buy anything cheap and theyll buy what their fri3nds have,who also like cheap things. -
I have an Xbox :$:$:$:$
but tbh, i don't play it much.. It does suck and i wish i never got it.. Rather play my ps3 [WHEN I ACTUALLY CAN AFFORD A NEW GAME] instead.
Sorry for being a noob and having an xbox
Its cool,its good to have varied gameplay.
You have some games i'd like to play like fable 2 and gow2.

More problems for microsoft this was on a gaming site, lol sounds like microsoft trying to get away without refunding for there cheap parts in there consoles.
don't get me wrong I like the xbox 360 but geez refund the people for your hardware problems.When Microsoft announced they were extending their warranty for Xbox 360s that received a E74 error, I was curious how different the code was from the red ring of death. Not very, it turns out.
I contacted the company earlier this week to find out what a E74 code meant and whether it was possibly just a rebranded red ring of death.
Here's what they told me:
Once a repair is made and a person gets their 360 back, does the clock reset for the extended warranty in regards to this error?
No. The same terms of the three-year warranty associated with three flashing red lights error apply.We reported in 2007 that Microsoft was reworking their 360s to no longer give the red rings to report certain errors because people were sometimes misconstruing them. Is that the case?
No, that is not accurate.Can a 360 still get a red ring error, aka the red ring of death?
Yes, the three flashing red lights error message can still be present on the console in the event of certain general hardware failures. We have made improvements to the console that will reduce the likelihood of an occurrence of this issue. The majority of customers who own Xbox 360 consoles have a terrific experience from their first day, and continue to, day in and day out.Is the e74 code a replacement for the red ring of death?
No. The E74 error message can indicate the general hardware failure that is associated with three flashing red lights error on the console. This issue remains relatively narrow in scope and a very small percentage of our customers have contacted us about this issue. Again, we have already made improvements to the console that will reduce the likelihood of an occurrence of this issue.But wait. What's with the contradiction? How can an E74 error message apply to the same hardware failures that are associated with a red ring if they're not the same?
"In some cases there is no difference. As we said, the E74 error message and three flashing red lights can in some cases indicate the same general hardware failure. However, it is not the same failure mode in all cases and there is no single root cause for these malfunctions."
So it sounds like there is an overlap between hardware issues that cause the E74 message and hardware issues that cause the red ring of death.

^ Basically meaning that… They have reprogrammed the 360's to not show ^
the 3 flashing red lights so that it is not in the media attention as much, and so that Microshaft don't have to pay out for this error... Which is the same as the RROD.Sneaky lil' #$%*&

I;m not going to settle for a toaster made out of cardboard just because its £50 cheaper than the chrome one.Sales matter,to whom?
Sales matter to people who make a living off of this shit.

But good sales,does not constitute for good gameplay and my enjoyment. -
Fair do's chase…. You speak some sense

i think it hade every oppertunity to be a good system. but they rushed it. they were more worried about being the first one. rather than the one with the best quality. however i guess they could just say screw u and not fix the problems with longer warranties. basically thier crappy work and rushing things in the begining is costing them now.

so true my buddy bought a ps3 plugged it into a bad socket fried the machine. so he had the socket fixed and bought a xbox because "that is the system everyone talks about or has!!" so stupid

I;m not going to settle for a toaster made out of cardboard just because its £50 cheaper than the chrome one.Ok soo You have the money to buy the best quality, i have the money to buy it, but lot's of people don't. I don't know about UK or US but in germany you can get x360 for 150€ brand new with game, and ps3 is around 400€ plus one game. That's not 50£ but a bit more. Some people don't want to put so much money in entertainment so they choose something cheaper.
I don't know how much money ur getting in your job but make a note that not everyone can get everything that's the best out there.so true my buddy bought a ps3 plugged it into a bad socket fried the machine. so he had the socket fixed and bought a xbox because "that is the system everyone talks about or has!!" so stupid
That's called marketing, it doesn't matter if they talk good or bad as long as they talk.
I work in a company like that. Ryanair everyone knows it, people either love us or hates us, and you know what ? Nobody gives a shit cause people still fly with us. Why? Cause it's cheap, it doesn't matter that you have to pay lots of cash for bags or check in or other shit, it doesn't matter that you even have to pay for water on board, and some crew treat you like shit. People fly cause it's cheap and they don't want to pay 300€ for flight with British Airways or Lufthansa but they pay 30€ for flight with us.
It's the same with Windows, Xbox 360 and whole Microsoft, there are so many bad things about this company and still 80% of people have Windows at home, they have so many x360 and other stuff. It's all about marketing and the rest comes after. -

I don't know how much money ur getting in your job but make a note that not everyone can get everything that's the best out there.This quote is pretty fun because PS3 outsells xbox in germany, and its a MUCH higher price.

And theres people who cannot afford British airways flights and people who can, if everyone is as who you say british airways would be bust now, so some people must enjoy quality.
You have practically admited that PS3 is a "Better Console", its done good because anything else would by lying, if you can compare Everything from 360 - PS3 the playstation will shine in all Areas apart from live, thats because there no charging £40 a year for you to use your own internet.

I never said there are no people who enjoy spending more money on flights. I fly with other airlines as well although i have free tickets with Ryanair. It's the same with x360 and ps3 nobody forces you too buy either. You always have a choice.
Windows isnt cheap, but its forced on you, I dont know ANYONE who has gone out and bought windows for then £100+ that it is to buy, people either get it already or download it.
Windows is not forced on you. You always have a choice between Windows, Linux which is free or Mac. I've chosen mac and you know what ? I have no need for windows never had.

I've never said ps3 is worse console. I sold x360 over ps3.

Well germany is pretty funny country, average salary is 800-1000€ as everyone is driving brand new BMW or Porshe. Seriously.. xD
