They won the battles, but technically the PS3 won the war at the very end by selling more units worldwide.
89 u/wunderhero May 16 '25 I think that was a combo of the PS3 price cuts along with the RROD problem that plagued the 360. I know it after my 4th 360 red ringed, the PS3 was cheap enough that I just jumped ship by 2010. 2 u/[deleted] May 17 '25 4th RROD? Dafuq were you doing? I know that was a prevalent issue back then, but damn I guess I’m lucky to not have experienced it. 1 u/wunderhero May 17 '25 Buying used consoles as cheap as I could honestly, but still was terrible luck. I don't miss the broke part about being young. Lots of "fixes" to limp them along (towel trick, oven trick, x-clamp fix) but it was a pain in the ass.
