Xbox to outsell PS3 in 2010

The war of words between platform holders Microsoft and Sony shows no signs of abating with Xbox 360 group product manager Aaron Greenberg categorically stating that he believes his company’s console can maintain its sales advantage over PS3 in the coming 12 months.

We believe we’ll outsell the PS3 for the full year,” the exec told Destructoid. We did in 2009.

We never underestimate the competition. We know they have a lot of great games. They’re very formidable. They have great history in this industry.

But we believe if you are a gamer and you want great games

We have more titles, more exclusives, we have the leading online community, and being able to bring really completely innovative technology like Project Natal to market this holiday, are all things that make us unique.”

Though he didn’t lay out a strict timeframe, PSN boss Peter Dille said earlier this month that he believes the PS3 will eventually overtake Xbox 360 in unit sale terms.
