[DontShoot-Me-Bro]

PS3 and Wii are doing sooo good!

Damn!

Also the DS

Wow PSP nearly outselling 360.

[bioshock1221]

Well I'm guessing it's because many people are waiting for the Slim to come out in Europe which doesn't come out until the 16th in Europe which was yesterday.

[Johnny_Bravo]

Yea its kinda pointless to buy an old 360 for $299, when you can get the even better one for the same price by waiting a few more days.

[Dance]

also reports of xbox slim shortages

[HolyOrangeCows]

But I thought shortages were just an excuse made by PSTREE FANBOIS, Dance.

Oh, it's the 360 now, though, that's right.

[commodore64]

@ orange..

hmmm.. the difference there is that Sony has been claiming there were shortages for the past SIX months, whereas this is the first time it has been claimed for MS.

I guess those little nuances of minutiae are lost on you.

[HolyOrangeCows]

So you get to decide how long shortages last, too, huh?
You're a funny one.

[PSfan09]

there wouldn't be any xbox shortages if Microsoft launched with a good console

good. ps3 has Europe

[The Lazy One]

this doesn't make any sense

if they made a more appealing console, it would sell less?

[demonddel]

EMEAA does not equals the world

[Information Minister]

It doesn't? Oh, that's right... NPD does./s

[ndibu]

Lol...the contributor really nitpicked what info to put out on the summary.
Xbox 360 outsold Ps3 this week again and Crackdown 2 has the top software spot.

[Cyrus365]

no it didn't, it may have overlal, but in Europe region and other region like middle east, Austuralia...360 got outsold.

[trounbyfire]

no beta = no sales

where are all of those "crackdown was a great game" and i would have brought it with out the beta.

whats worse is everyone talks like " its a 360 exclusive" and as of late they have been lacking so lets build crackdown up even if we don't like it very much

G4tv i mean they sounded so down having to say good things about it

[The Lazy One]

The bad reviews are hurting it more than no beta tbh. The first game was actually really good if you played it.

The second is supposed to only be good if you're doing 4 player co-op.

[Johnny_Bravo]

EMEAA 1st week sales for inFamous was 80,000 which is worse than Crackdown 2's sales. If your going to play sales on a game, include the rest of the world not parts of it. Hell, Heavy Rain only sold 25,000 in its first week in Japan.

Uncharted 2 "The best game ever made" opened with 54,000 in Japan. So I guess that's a bad game to right?

Modnation Racers EMEAA 1st week sales are 54,000. That's another bad game to right?

[trounbyfire]

OMG you must think before you type.
1. japan region is the smallest and western games usually sell around that.

2. yeah Modnation flopped big deal, crackdown is suppose to be a main exclusive for the 360. if UC2 or GOW3 sold like that then it would be a flop but they sold much better.

3. all the people that talk about crackdown 2 know its not very good with respect to other open world games, they go"...yeah its not very new and fresh, the graphics suck, the auto aim is really bad, its repetitive, the zombies things are useless and stupid, the voice is stupid"

on g4tv feedback morgan webb actually said she gave crackdown 2 a high score and looked passed the flaws basically because she liked the first one and thought crackdown 2 was rushed.

SHE admitted that she lied about the score and upped it to a 4 out of 5. she said that they don't get a pass for the crackdown 3.

I WAS LIKE WTF....G4 has lost my respect

[Johnny_Bravo]

@trounbyfire - So what's your excuse for inFamous? It sold less than Crackdown 2 in the same region in first week sales. Crackdown is not a main 360 exclusive, Gears of War, Halo, Fable, are example of big exclusives.

Motorstorm Pacific Rift sold 36,000 in its first week for EMEAA, which was a sequel to a big PS3 exclusive.

Uncharted Drakes Fortune sold 86,000 in its first week for EMEAA, and only 34,000 for USA.

I can easily bash a game because it sold bad in Japan, EMEAA, or USA in its first week, anyone can. My point is if your going to bash a game based on sales, use worldwide sales not sections of it.

[koston3647]

HOLY SH!T PS2!

[ranmafandude]

there's still alot of either cheap or poor gamers over there. plus there's alot of piracy so that helps hardware sells.

[Silly gameAr]

Yeah. What's up with that?

[Cyrus365]

PS3 has passed 360 in europe, after launching later. Sony probably thought this how it was suppose to be in US too, but that's not gonna happen, if ever, unless they plan on selling PS3's for 99.99 with Move and a game!

[Counter Strike]

f*** it deserves every sale best console ever. Period

[demonddel]

thats ur opinion

[The real killer]

"also reports of xbox slim shortages

http://www.electronictheatr...

Here in EU is the 360S still avaible, but i don't know in the USA, i think it's the USA.

Those 360S Re-purse from old 360 users will soon empty stock:)

[tatotiburon]

where are all this "vgchartz sucks" comments??...oh i see, ps3 is winning so now vgchartz is relieable hahhaa lol

[WacksOnWacksOff]

EMEAA =/= World

[Narutone66]

I agree. USA=/=World also. But Europe+Asia+USA= almost the world.
Wii=1st
PS3=2nd
360=3rd

[WacksOnWacksOff]

Just poking fun at those legions of idiots who go into EVERY NPD thread EVERY month and say "America =/= World"... in an NPD thread no less.

[soxfan2005]

EEMAA PS3 + 360 + Wii = 60 million lifetime sales. That's Europe & Australia.

By contrast, PS3 + 360 + Wii = 70+ million in the U.S. ALONE.

So, the U.S. - one single country - is a bigger market than all of Europe & Australia COMBINED.

[OutgoingSquall]

Sony and nitendo making the most money.

[HurstDarkStar]

serously, its portable and the cosole has made nintendo a shit load this gen

[OutgoingSquall]

Yeah but use math psp ps2 ps3 are all profits Sony has had 87% growth this year so yeah nitendo isn't the only one making cheddar.

[demonddel]

not true i work for sony i know

[Spenok]

LMAO. Yeah and i work for Obama, and he wants both you, and himself to stfu. As well as put down the controller.

[HurstDarkStar]

so if i bring up all of nintendo;s past consoles wouldnt that destroy that?
