Oh nice work quoting sales figures to indicate popularity, little thing you didn’t take into account:

PS3 sold out... the reason the figures are low are not because people aren’t buying them, it’s because there are none to buy, and although you could I guess you those figures to illustrate how Microsoft were more prepared at lunch than Sony, it doesn’t really add any weight to your current argument...

If you wanted to prove a point that “system X is inferior compared to system Y” then you would raise a point such as Xbox360s serious design flaws causing constant crashing and hanging in game. In fact I’ll quote from a law suit against Microsoft for its ‘defective console’ …lol. “Microsoft rushed the release of the ‘defectively designed’ Xbox 360 onto the market in order to beat PlayStation 3 and Revolution, specifically mentioning overheating of the power supply and CPU as the cause of the various Xbox 360s crashing.” Yeah…they got more systems out there quicker, good on em… I’ll wait for a ps3 :)

Hear hear!

I just bought a brand new computer myself. I'll wait until next Xmas to pick up my new-fangled gaming console. By then the prices will be lower, the bugs fixed (or at least popularly identified), and there will actually be a decent selection of games.

As for the person who quoted sales figures: shut it. Even if all of the consoles were released at the same time, popular (herd) opinion has nothing to do with quality.
