The PS3 is likely to outsell the Xbox this month, according to stock analyst website.
SimExchange reports that this month, the PS3 will probably shift more units than the 360, something it has not done since the end of 2007. Sales of the two consoles have been fairly similar since then, with the 360 selling just that bit more than the PS3. Though there have been conflicting reports through the NPD that show the PlayStation 3 has been consistently outselling the Xbox 360 throughout 2008 thus far, however, the NPD does not take Wal-mart into account when tallying up their totals.
SimExchange is a website that lets people play around with virtual stocks concerning the video game market, so validity of these claims are questionable. In the real world, sales of the PS3 were good last week, so maybe there is some truth in what they say?
What’s driving these sales is a mystery, but unfortunately the poor sods will be lumped with 40 gig units.
Stay tuned.
