NexGenWars is no longer a reliable source

The first comment covered it quite well

Uhm... Everybody knew this already, right? He takes salesdata that is known the latest and calculates how much are then sold every second.

He lets the time run and calculate the extra sales with it, untill the time that the latest sale data is out again.

Obviously NO ONE can show realtime sales. Not even VGA Charts.

BUT this guy has tuned down the numbers also. He did it with the 360, which he first had scaled to high. But still. If he calculates back to a second from sales data known, I don't see the problem. Yep it won't be completely accurate, but on the other hand it's the closest you get probably.

Because 600k PS3's sold in Europe. Says who? Sony? Analysts? real number?

Take that in mind

You think anyone who doesn't say something good about Sony is a 360 Fanboy. Do yourself a favor and stop being Sony's little puppet.

I don't see what's so wrong. The difference between the three was so great that the accuracy wasn't that much of a factor. Actually, the most it was inaccurate was the 360 by .66%. That's not that much of a difference. I mean, it's not like Next Generation has a team of Advanced Mathematicians running these numbers. It was probably a slight error coming from a person that is slightly less than perfect at number crunching.

Nah but its controller is actually comfortable and easy to hold. It seems Sony went for looks with their controller and haven't changed it at all. What are these ideas Microsoft took from sony? Having a disk drive? How bout Sony using the center button on the controller just like Microsoft did?

Just like sony did? Lmfao. When the 360 came out the PS3 controller looked like a boomerang but they changed it and put a button in the center later. How the hell is Microsoft copying Sony?
