Originally posted by ask_rabber you forget it was out a year earlier and that is one of the big reasons its the most popular.
that doesn't explain the extreme margin. i can understand a slight lead from being out a year early, with this gap closing as time progresses, but it's actually widening. The most recent figures i've seen show the ps2 selling 33 million units, the Xbox 4.3 milion, and the gamecube 4.5 million. That's not even a contest.
