In the world of Gaming, the rivalry between PS3 & Xbox 360 has been going on forever and it has been close. If there has been a area where Xbox 360 had an edge was the Global Sales Figures but finally the tables have been turned and PS3 has overtaken Xbox 360 in Global Sales Figures.

A new forecast by Games Industry International claims that the Sony PS3 has finally overtaken the Xbox 360, taking the lead in units shipped at long last. I know that Sony is loving this. According to Games Industry International, a “market analysis” document by Lewis Ward of IDC (the International Data Corporation) called the Worldwide Video Game Entertainment Console Hardware and Packaged Software 2012-2016 Forecast shows a prediction of hardware as well as software sales over the coming years.

In December 2012, “Sony’s PS3 managed to surpass the number of Xbox 360s shipped worldwide (about 77 million vs. 76 million), despite the PS3 launching a year later.”

So looks like Microsoft is not so dominant after all and with the PS3 having so many stand out titles, looks like they are gonna be unstoppable.
