BIA: Hell's Highway 'Realism' trailerWhen game publishers talk, people listen. But when that publisher is EA, people stop what they are doing and take notes. With as much sway in the industry as EA has, they have a huge grasp on the inner workings and future of gaming.
EA recently made a prediction that the Nintendo Wii would continue to dominate in 2008, to no surprise. One startling guess that they have made, however, is that the PlayStation 3 would outsell the Xbox 360 by a large margin.
According to the predictions, the Wii would outsell both of its competitors soundly, with an estimated 12-14 million units this year. Very solid numbers compared to Sony and Microsoft's projected sales of around 10 and 7 million respectively. So, according to EA, the PS3 will sell about three million more consoles this year than the 360.
Now, keep in mind that these estimates only pertain to the North American and European market and are guesses based on research. Be sure to check back for all the latest in sales numbers here at PSU.

ya hopefully this means better ports
I hope that translates to Good PS3 game version compared to 360's. Also some exclusives wouldn't hurt.
Interesting since they hate the PS3.
coming from ea :o
and thats comng from ea... HA HA HA HA HA omg they themselves think that the ps3 wil outsell the 360 yet they give ps3 users the short end of the deal omg dumba**es
on another note, of course the wii will outsell them $200 cheaper and user friendly to non gamers but its really a whole other market because theyre going after a completely different demographic nintendo said it themselves several times
EA said this? Amazing
i guess they want to capitolize on the ps3's sales surge! ok ea welcome aboard! psst, heres a tissue, now wipe that brown off your nose!
EA really knows that we hate them
I don't beleive this I need a source. Because there is no qoutes in his article.
psn id: gingo.... EA said this this yet they continue to make shoddy ports and crapness on their ps3 versions even though they have the answer right in front of them and that is leading development on the ps3
EA aint as bad as you all think and i would think u would buy some of their games when they come out, like Army of Two, Battlefield:bad company, and ect. to support them so that they will begin making all there games on the ps3 first.
Who cares about those games! I'm not giving a dime to EA! They suck!
Woo EA backing up PS3? I can already see mass effect coming to the ps3.....
EA said this about the PS3? Where is the news headline about h*ll freezing over and monkeys flying out of the Kool Aid guys butt. Both of these must've happened considering what EA is predicting. OH YEAH!!!! I really hope this happens.
ironic
EA said this man thats amazing man they know sooner or latter the playsation 3 will win the console war and they know the future is bluray.Lazy bastards
Wow.. Did this come out of Micheal Moore's mouth? Lol.. So EA wants to jump on the bandwagon now??? I still say F@ck EA..Start showing us that you know how to develop on the platform before you start sucking its _______...
I CANT BELEIVE EA IS BEING SO STUPID!... oh wait, there not? Man im so use to them saying the hate the ps3 or somthing like that. Well this is a change. Maby Microsoft got of with a bad start with them or somthing today. Or maby... :-O maby they have finly relized that they need to make some good games for us! :-D
Now EA is betting on the PS3? This is soooo interesting! Since they left out the Japanese and Asian markets (predominantly sony-owned), I guess we can assume those numbers will be higher for the PS3. Great news!
wow, EA finally waking up and seeing the light.
PS2 out sells 360 in japan 2:1 enough said on the asian market. My friends and I have talking talking about PS3 outselling crashbox3fixme in 2008 ever since we saw the line up for games. EA is stating nothing else then many of us PS3 user's already knew. It does shock me though that they are finally adimiting it..
Let's just hope this comes true.
Heh. Odd coming from EA.
The only thing I ever see EA do is if they have bad PR, they say things to get back those who were swayed by their antics and whatnot and this is no different. Stop choosing other consoles as their lead consoles and stop making crappy ports. It doesn't help the PS3games division at all.
They didnt think so highly of the ps3 in '07 did they?
please lads...learn to spell...(im looking at you reccodog)
punctuation isn't bad either ;)
otherwise...blatently obvious...
Now EA start talkin'.
I told myslef that I would not buy another EA game 2 years ago, because they suck big time.
I bet its because they know everyone's going to buy Crysis, exclusivly for the PS3. This is good news, because EA is a big company and will hoepfully make their games lead platform for PS3.
sounds realistic to me
thats because 360 doesnt have mgs4 or killzone ii
@Lp47PS3 You must be able to see the future! Wow that's amazing! I actually have the ability to see the present, and at present Crysis has not been announced for the PS3! Goober!
Yeah good news but its hardly rocket science, the 360 has been out for 2 years and most people have already bought one!
yep it would be even better when those moders crack the ps3
