:-O
Absolutely insane sales..
I don't see a gap I see the mount everest
The ps4 will outsell the Ps3 so easily! And it's undertracked aswell so the gap is even bigger
According to these latest charts, Xbox One is selling about as well as the PS3 did. Wasn't PS3 considered a flop for the first year or two as well?
Half life 3 confirmed!!!!!
A question: why this massive increase this november?
PS2 lifetime...here I come!
Damn Sony, I wonder why they won't give up on the phone business. They should go full force in the gaming industry. They obviously have the huge lead over every other company in terms of home consoles.
Their phones are improving to be quite good, they had a bad/slow start with lots of issues which hurt their brand. I would like them to stay.
PS3 should pick up some steam soon though. when Ps3 slim and Uncharted 2 release.
No! the PS4 won't outsold the PS3! This is not 2005, this is 2015! A new generation of gaming with Smartphone and PC on the lead!
Smartphones is another topic- that is a factor when talking about handhelds.

Very true, but it's damaging the console market too, especially in Japan.
