If you actually believe Ps3 is ahead, then by all means let me know lol. It's certainly been on pace to pass 360, be it 1 mil ahead or behind. It would just mean Ps3 outsold 360 by 8-10 million since the Ps3 launched.
I don't care who is ahead..
The long and short of it is
1)They are pretty much at the same place
2)This late in the gen it ultimately doesn't matter.

And going into next gen it doesn't matter. They will continue to share a pretty similar library of games. Sony has the momentum mostly because Microsoft kept tripping over its own two feet with their console, and are priced 100 bucks more.

Also helps that gamers have shown their disdain for Kinect so making it a mandatory part of the package only hurts some folks interest.

That said the delay of Watch_Dogs and possibly Drive Club now.. leaves the PS4 in a curious place this holiday season since it really does lack a truly killer game.

As does the One, but I do think with decent marketing.. MS can trick folks into believing Ryse is worth buying.

I'm not trying to get an "out"

In the grand scheme of things, does it matter if MS is ahead by or Sony is ahead by a million?

Saying you don't care and it doesn't matter after everything you posted is an out, period. But don't worry, I won't continue questioning your intentions.

1)Never said I don't care or I wouldn't respond. :P
2)And what intentions? Always thought was a Nintendo fanboy on here.. so who am I defending in this case?

This is the most boring argument I've ever seen.

Hush you! :P

Anyhow, DriveClub has been officially delayed until next year for the PS4.

I really do think the 100 dollar price difference is a huge saving grace this holiday season
