PlayStation 3 reportedly passes Xbox 360 in worldwide sales
According to a Worldwide Video Game Entertainment Console Hardware and Packaged Software 2012-2016 Forecast from the International Data Corporation, which is said to also include the number from December, that show PlayStation creator Sony has finally passed Microsoft in worldwide sales last month (roughly 77 million to 76 million).
While this report does show Sony taking the lead, it is also clear to point out that these numbers are shipped totals and not actually sold to the consumers. Numerous analysts over the years have predicted that Sony would catch Microsoft, so it looks like they might have been right after all.
The forecast also gives mention to Nintendo's future, stating that the company will continue to find sales for their Wii U and projects that they will ship 50 million consoles by 2016.

Congrats to Playstayion! I'm an Xbox user and always will be but this is cool for them I guess. And by the way people the rant will never stop, so stop complaining about it. The consoles are exactly the same except the ps3 has blu ray and Xbox you have to pay for and have party systems, and tons more apps and better dashboard/home and doesn't have the security of a house with no doors and broken windows, not bias here at all.

Efficient All of my friends play xbox, not ps3... guess it depends on your area
I think most people buy ps3 more because of the blu ray player.
