IndustryGamers has just received the July NPD video game sales data, and as was predicted, software sales were down again, dipping eight percent to $403.3 million. Hardware, however, driven in part by the Xbox 360 slim and price reductions on older 360 models, climbed 12 percent to $313.8 million. As a result, total industry sales were down just one percent in July, reaching $846.5 million. Year-to-date, total game industry sales in the U.S. are now at $7.51 billion, which is behind 2009's pace by eight percent.
The developer of Garry's Mod has announced it is in the process of removing all Nintendo-related content from Steam Workshop after receiving a takedown request from Nintendo.

Terrible sales, sports games on top ouch.
Interesting.
A disagree for wondering where Starcraft 2 is? Ah.......K?
PSP is dead seriously, not even 100K. And PS3 demand is shrinking now that the slim effect is gone.
As for the 360 just imagine Aug when the $199 releases. Then Sept with Reach and the bundle.
The gap will likely grow to 7ml by year end with Kinect coming.

Will be big but not a huge system seller since there are over 4ml GT PS3 owners already from GT5P. I will sell 500K units max in EU and thats not a lot.
@DuneBuggy
If Kinect takes off it can.

Gears 3 says hi. And by the time the PS3 reaches $199 it will be too late.
Big sales for X360. I did not expect that much. It would be interesting to know the numbers for StarCraft II.
