Is this a sign of things to come? The PS3 may be overtaking Xbox 360 sales in the UK by summer but it turns out that the PS3 has already beaten Xbox 360 on its home turf. For the month of January, the PS3 moved up to the number two spot in US sales and pushed the Xbox 360 to the number three spot. The Nintendo Wii remained number one.
Is this a sign of things to come? The PS3 may be overtaking Xbox 360 sales in the UK by summer but it turns out that the PS3 has already beaten Xbox 360 on its home turf. For the month of January, the PS3 moved up to the number two spot in US sales and pushed the Xbox 360 to the number three spot. The Nintendo Wii remained number one.
But the war is really between the Xbox 360 and PS3 only. It’s not that the PS3 is selling more but it seems that Xbox 360 sales are just slowing down a bit. The Wii sold 274,000 units during the month, the PS3 followed with 269,000 units and the Xbox 360 with 230,000 units sold.
According to TGDaily, even the PS2 outsold the Xbox 360 for the month. This only accounts for the single month. Obviously the install bases of the Xbox 360 far eclipse the PS3 and the Wii eclipses both of them. All the consoles had a rather weak showing for the month but that’s normal following heavy buying over the holiday season(s).
It’s suggested that the Xbox 360 is having trouble reaching a wider audience that the current install base but the PS3 has a lot of room to expand. Expand it will. A few good games are due out this year with some releasing next year. Until then, the PS3 makes a great Blu-Ray player. The death of HD-DVD is just around the corner. With that being the case why not pick up a console that can also play the winning Blu-Ray format and you’ll be all set when the games come out.
But don’t buy one just yet, the PS3 will supposedly see a revision later this year.
