“Statistics published by top game developer Tose show that with 42 million the total number of PS3s sold globally have exceeded the Xbox 360 by a million units.
The statistics come by way of a presentation by Tose (a prolific Kyoto-based game developer best known for not being known, as their games as usually credited exclusively to the company outsourcing the work to them, most often Nintendo) at the Kyoto Cross Media Experience 2010, published by Famitsu.”
On a side note: SDF will be covering E3 with the usual unbiased, unfiltered coverage throughout the rest of the week. Expect videos, impressions and more to be posted in the coming days.
Unless Natal Kinect has the ability to warp space and time it’s safe to say that many of the ‘live demos’ shown at Microsoft’s conference were indeed faked.
Overall SDF’s unbiased impressions of the MS conference were of boredom and disappointment. Between the downgraded visuals of Gears of War 3 and Halo: Reach, to their Wii-too Kinect demos we can’t say we are confident in the 360′s future. Perhaps next time they attempt to ‘revolutionize’ the gaming industry they shouldn’t copy games that were released in 2006. Embarrassing MS.
