360 predicted to outsell PS3 2 to 1 this holiday
Using the super factual NPD software sales numbers, various market indicators and a pinch of black magic, the analysts over at simExchange released their predictions for the holiday video game hardware sales. And 360 sales are predicted to be fantastic.
SimExchange is estimating that, from now through the end of the year, Xbox 360 hardware sales will double that of the Playstation 3, moving 2 million consoles compared to the PS3's 1 million. And those estimates even take into account the PS3's recent price drop. W00t! But the holidays won't be completely Xbox green this year, because the Wii juggernaut is expected to take home the blue ribbon with sales estimates hovering around the 3 million mark. But if you're a firm believer of the "next-gen" war being between the Xbox 360 and PS3 then you can safely claim victory ... or at least claim analyst numbers victory.
