Sony is ahead because of the price, and for no other reason.

Changing the goal post!??? Who the hell bought up Halo???? I was saying in general the Western/American gaming market is larger and more dominate than the current Japanese market.

And if we are going to be fair the American gaming market is WAAAY larger than Japanese/Asian one. So Halo not being popular in Asia doesnt even matter... Why do you think the 360 was able to survive without Japan?

You do realize that China is apart of Asia and that the largest video game company in the world is a Chinese one.

Sony is ahead because of the price, and for no other reason.

Right that's why it still sells more even though it cost more now.

You talk about global success, yet ignores Asia. You do know that some japanese exclusive games sold well in Japan alone that matches the global sales of western games. Western gaming market is only dominant in the west. FACT. They tried to invade the east, but failed ultimately while Japanese games have proven in the past that they can not only dominate the Asian territory but also the western shores. How do you think those japanese AAA franchise became so famous?
