PS3 selling better than Xbox 360 did…a year ago
According to recent NPD sales data, the Playstation 3 is selling faster than the Xbox 360 was at this time last year. Unfortunately for Sony, beating something that happened a year ago doesn’t really matter. What matters is what is happening now, which is the PS3 being outsold by the Xbox 360 - so you can’t really blame them for wanting to make things look better than they are. Not to mention that at this time last year there were severe shortages of the Xbox 360, where as there are plenty of PS3s sitting unsold right now. The PS3s may be selling faster, but that doesn’t really mean anything considering that a year ago there weren’t any Xbox 360s actually left to sell any faster.
