I had Coco Pops this morning, normally it's a very hard choice between those or Honey Loops but i'd run out of Honey Loops so i'm kind of glad that decision was made for me.

Why is a pubic bone called a pubic bone? does it grow hair too?.

Damn it Jim what was in that bottle you gave me.

I love it when they announce sales like it matters anymore. What are we expecting from this news. What, 360 outsells ps3 for a month in america, so Sony cancel PS3 production? No, that would be ridiculous. There are no winners in this industry, since as soon as one console starts losing sales, the company brings out the next gen console. Then other companies follow in their footsteps. It's a big endless cycle. All these announcments do is bring out the fanboys.

I feel a "Lol, sony fagz" is only round the corner, I'm getting the hell out of here.

6.9 million, i actually counted them myself when they got out the shops so you have to believe it. One was a bloke coming out of Greggs with a sausage roll but i remembered to take him off the list.

If Sony released the same time as MS then Sony's overall sales would be ahead by roughly 10 million. So if you take a year sales from the 360 which is an average of just under 10 million, (5 years and 50 million sold) that would put MS at 40 million and Sony at 49 million. I suppose someone will say that is wrong but... it isn't.

I've contributed to both as I've had more than one of each (2 PS3's + 4 360's) but I just don't get 360 only owning fanboys when they say, ha Xbox has sold more than PS3 so... It doesn't take a genius to see in reality PS3 has sold more minus the year head start MS had.

I can't stand Sony fanboys or Xbox fanboys that claim to have both consoles to convince, their self? other people? that they're not a fanboy. Sony fanboys will claim there 360 is collecting dust and 360 fanboys claim they only use there PS3 for a Blu-ray.

I am actually using my 360 as a DVD player atm as mine has broke so I'd rather the 360 disc drive break as it has less time on the warranty.

I have both and i play both... but yes you got me i'll admit i am a sausage roll fanboy. I prefer them hot, so those cold sausage roll loving fanboys can kiss my pale white arse, your choice is not only wrong it is in actual fact illegal in some countries.

To answer your earlier question martin this is the fella i saw coming out of Greggs, in hindsight i should have known it wasn't a 360 he'd gone for.

I could be wrong, but the 360 only had a years head start over the european market, the jap and US market releases were far sooner.

Your "logic" is quite flawed. Why would you calculate the 360's average yearly sales to calculate 360's first year sales? That makes no sense. 360 had sold 7 million units by the time PS3 launched.
If the PS3 had gone on sale at the same time as the 360 it would have to have been even more expensive than it was at the time it actually launched, and the fanboy's claims that "PS3 has no games" would actually have been quite true. There can be no doubt that this would have severely affected sales numbers.
Sure, the PS3 has closed that 7 million gap to about 4 million, but with the outstanding success of Kinect, we may see this gap open up again. The fact still remains that Sony have gone from the clear market leader for two generations, to last place.
And, to date, Sony are the only console manufacturer that have actually removed functionality (Other OS) from customer's already purchased machines. Maybe you don't care about the removal of the Other OS feature, but there are many who do, and it shows a serious lack of consideration on Sony's part for their customers, as well as setting a worrying precedent. This behaviour has certainly cost Sony some potential sales.
I sound like a 360 fanboy now, don't I. Well, maybe I can balance that out by saying that, although I do pay for Xbox Live, I'd rather not have to, and I'm unhappy with Microsoft's licensing arrangement for controllers. I'd love to be able to use my Logitech steering wheel with my 360 without having to use an expensive adapter.

There's plenty around Fife at Rosyth, Dollar, Inverkeithing, Cowdenbeath and Kirkcaldy. You don't have to go to Dunfermline just somewhere near it, no one wants to go to Dunfermline, even those who live there. Come on, you know its worth it just for that steakey goodness.

See how you change people with your NPD sales stories cvg, he went from a happy sausage roll lover to wanting one of these meat sacks in just a short amount of time. Next he'll be saying he doesn't want a bacon butty, he's happy enough with a tuna baguette.

That i would not condone, a Tuna Baguette's nice but compared with the almighty Bacon Butty then there's only 1 winner.

And hey its a friday baiting article, they always end up food related. I'm just waiting on Mark, Stonecold and all the other usual suspects throwing their suggestions into the mixer.

Morrisons do a very nice Linconshire sausage roll, you get it cold and have to stick it in the oven for a few minutes but it is lovely, if you can't get to a Stephens bakers for a steak bridie that is.

Well i think you have to go to a specialist sweet shop to buy quarter bags nowadays so maybe some sort of specialist bakers could make those sausage rolls. Either that or you'll just have to make do with the party size sausage rolls, which for some reason people like to stick on cocktail sticks with lumps of cheese or pineapple.

But for the love of god don't post any more s**t on horse semen shots, can hardly even stomach a coffee just now.

If Sony released the same time as MS then Sony's overall sales would be ahead by roughly 10 million. So if you take a year sales from the 360 which is an average of just under 10 million, (5 years and 50 million sold) that would put MS at 40 million and Sony at 49 million. I suppose someone will say that is wrong but... it isn't.

I've contributed to both as I've had more than one of each (2 PS3's + 4 360's) but I just don't get 360 only owning fanboys when they say, ha Xbox has sold more than PS3 so... It doesn't take a genius to see in reality PS3 has sold more minus the year head start MS had.

I think that's the most stupid arguement/comparison i've ever seen on this website.

I find it funnier that even if the sales of 360's have been boosted by say 5 or 6 million people buying a second (or third, or fourth) to replace a busted console... that's 5 or 6 million people who would still buy a notoriously dodgy product than buy a PS3 at all.

NPD also reported that Microsoft sold over 2,6 million Kinect's for XBOX 360 over weekend. Just imagine how much it that!!! BTW, you can find some interesting news about Microsofts new Kinect on http://xboxkinecthub.com

This isn't even a US site, so i don't know why anyone cares.

You obviously cared about it, as you commented on the article. Judging by your response, you are a bit disgruntled….?

Which makes me more of a reliable person, when it comes to commenting on both platforms, compared to yourself.

Now, move along, you waste of space...
