Worldwide Chart for Week Ending 15th December 2007

VGChartz Reports for the Week ending Dec 15, 2007, Worldwide Sales were:

DS: 1,392,797
Wii: 523,568
360: 502,902
PS2: 491,520
PSP: 466,682
PS3: 450,055

Interesting to note some PS3 Multiplatform are out selling it's 360 counterparts in global sales, such as Fifa 08 (792,542 Total sales on PS3 vs. 711,592 Total sales on 360) , Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 (666,809 Total Sales on PS3 vs. 578,373 on 360), etc. However the big games such Call of Duty 4, Assassins Creed have bigger sales on the 360 globally.

Interesting to see Uncharted was ranked #12 overall Globally selling almost 100 K, yet it wasn't the highest PS3 games, that honor goes to Need for Speed: ProStreet (PS3), which outsold all other PS3 games and 360 games for that week.

[power of Green]

Football selling more on a platform more favored in this region I'm shocked , not.

[Cyrus365]

How so?

360 still has more install base in Europe, than PS3. This is global sales, and last time I checked 360 has 2x more the install base than PS3.

Then explain Need for Speed series, globally 360 is about 10 K in more sales at this point than PS3, basically the same.

I think what it shows, or atleast in my opinion 360 has a big hardcore owner base, in which they tend to enjoy games like FPS, it's no coincidence that 360 has nearly 2 million Call of Duty 4 sold, it's a game that appeals more to 360 audience. I could be wrong though...

[BLaZiN PRopHeT]

@Cyrus365

what the other sports game that sold way more on the 360 than the ps3 also dont forget AC which isnt a shooter that sold way more on the 360. 2 games which arent big in the us selling more on the ps3 doesnt show a trend

@TANOD

Why are you spreading bullsh1t. the 360 is 250(20GB) and the ps3 is 300(40GB)

and please link where MCV said that.

[TANOD]

that chart is STILL INCOMPLETE

The NUMBERS for PS3/X360 and Wii for JAPAN havent been posted yet

delete your story

@POG

no market likes x360 except USA. Vgcharts UK sales data is also inconsistent since MCV UK is reporting that PS3 is after Wii in terms of sales.

x360 sells only in USA but for how long.

BTW in UK x360 costs 199 pound, arcade cost 170 pound vs 299 pound for the 40gig PS3.

so the ps3 is almost 2x as expensive as the x360 in UK

However things would change drastically in 2008

you know that too

as for your shameless claim LO flopped big time in Japan. same goes to Eternal Sonata and Blue Dragon.

FF13 on PS3 will sell more than the x360s combined lifetime base in EU and JAPAN (that could be like 5/6m )

since from 2008 the console war decider will be between ps3 and wii

@BLAZIN XBORG

x360 costs as low as 189 pound in UK

http://www.play.com/Games/X...

the premium x360 costs 239 pounds

www.play.co.uk

@ OTHERS

both these BLAZIN PROPHET and CYRUS are from GAMETRAILERS forum. both of these are huge XBOTS who destroyed that forum

@CYRUS ....PS3 is now just within 1m to catch x360 in terms of total sales in EU . It has crossed x360 in all of EU except UK

Hopefully that stream will be crossed next year

[power of Green]

True but the markets in Europe that favor 360 Mostly english speaking countries play them all.

The countries supporting PS3 are obviuosly buying the game and the console for games like this.

As for Pro Street maybe its not as appealing to 360 owners due to the 360 having more racers to choose from.

Think of it this way, despite the 360 fanbase being bigger JRPG's will always do well on Playstation platforms. Watch DMC4(not an RPG) for PS3 sell almost on par with DMC4 for 360.

[TANOD]

PS3 and X360 JAPAN numbers have not been posted

where are the Japan numbers

People report this story as LAME

@bloodySinner

calm down Bloodmask/roundpeg/pog/elitega mer

[BloodySinner]

Settle down, nasim/shmee.

[The Chief of Mjolnir]

I agree with BloodySinner. Calm down.

[ReBurn]

There isn't enough software selling in Japan to make that big of a difference, anyway. Unless you want to see the Wii's numbers go higher.

[lawman1108]

Scat and vomit video loveing, Hello kitty playing, Pearl Harbor attacking weirdo's.

[Maddens Raiders]

Your comment has been reported.

[BLaZiN PRopHeT]

uncharted didnt rank 12 it ranked 17

[Guwapo77]

I know its not next gen and all...but glad to see them give that system some respect being it is still selling like crazy.

[TANOD]

The CHART is STILL INCOMPLETE

The JAPAN numbers for PS3 and X360 havent been posted yet

[The Chief of Mjolnir]

Please. You´re like: "OMG OMG, this one does not include the Japan sales."

Calm the F down.

[Kyur4ThePain]

Approximate numbers:

Nintendo - 1.9M
Sony - 1.4M
MS - 0.5M

Make of it what you wish.

[BLaZiN PRopHeT]

u mean MS only havent 1 console while ps3 has 3 and the wii has 2? because thats what it looks like.

[Relcom]

Never made the orignal Xbox then? Is that what your trying to say?

[hotshot127]

...

[TANOD]

when the numbers are posted then you might see all of ps2/ps3/psp to be above X360

wait for the JAPANESE data and then see the numbers

[Relcom]

VG charts is VG charts. Take it for what it is, a educated guess.

[TANOD]

VGCHARTS hasnt posted the JAPAN sales data as of TODAY.

wait for the JAPANESE numbers then post this sales thread

THIS CYRUS is from GAMETRAILERS ....He is a trainee who has SPAMMMED a good sales chart

PEOPLE mark this STORY as LAME/SPAM /FAKE....since the chart is incomplete ...The worldwide aggregate numbers are not as a result obtained

wait for TOMORROW for the FAMITSU data

@cerulean SKY

VGCHARTS has a habit of inflating x360 numbers. They inflated x360 numbers by 60k for NOVEMBER in NA, over 180k for OCTOBER in NA .

VGCHARTS usually underreport PS3 numbers eg 30k less reported for NOVEMBER. Some of their data is also inconsistent eg in FRANCE x360 doesnt sell and PS3 has reached almost the x360's total sales (see NEOGAF) . PS3 has sold around 400k in FRANCE. x360 reached 500k in FRANCE last week (MS themselves released a statement on this)

VGCHARTS has PS3 sales in FARNCE downgraded by 100k and x360 sales upgraded by 100k

VGCHARTS x360 sales data is also massively exaggerated

[KingME]

WE HEARD YOU THE FIRST 4 TIMES YOU SAID THAT THE NUMBERS WERE INCOMPLETE. WHY ARE YOU SO FRICKIN' CONCERNED THAT EVERYONE KNOWS THIS. WHAT COULD YOU POSSIBLE BE GAINING PERSONNALY FROM THIS.

STFU!

[Relcom]

I just don't care anymore. People post stuff on this site for their own consoles agenda (most of time) so whatever.

P.S. i reported this story for having a incomplete chart.

P.P.S. You edited the story, so report cancelled.

[BloodySinner]

TANOD is nasim/shmee.

[Milkman541]

No Japen Numbers...What a joke...

[Relcom]

Its *JAPAN* I know you were enraged with your all caps statement. Quick fix. : )

[InMyOpinion]

Actually, it's Nippon.

[CeruleanSky]

The problem with vgchartz.com isn't that it is inaccurate, it's that it's not COMPLETELY inaccurate.

US sales numbers are fine since they are just the well known NPD numbers.

Japan sales numbers are fine since they are just an average of the two major retail samplers.

It's the Other category that is pure fanboy fantasyland. France is one glaring example where the vgchartz numbers aren't even close to the known sales figures. Outside of the major European country sales numbers, the Other category is used to pad out installed base numbers for whatever console the guy running the site likes. It was the Other category that allowed vgchartz to make the ridiculous 10.5 million 360s sold claim back in December 2006.

[SmokeyMcBear]

blibbity blah

[lonestarmt]

so according to this ps3 was out sold by 53k? hmm then add in the huge numbers from Japan prob around 50k, we could have ps3 beating 360 for three weeks in a row worldwide. Interesting, but then again this is vg charts.

[eddispider]

People must be retarded bying that game on ps3. The framerate sucks compeared to the x360.

[Omegasyde]

um its the same game actually. The 360 does have better texture but no frame rate probs on the PS3 version.

I agree with the whol NFS pro sucks however. LoL @ EA for trying to sell "codes" and "game saves". THey will do anything for a dollar nowadays.

[solidt12]

Damn in one week. THAT INSANE! Still waiting on Japan. I was thinking that all systems would be selling like 600,000 plus this week. Maybe next week. oh yeah thats right Japan numbers aren't in yet so maybe all systems but the Xbox 360 because no one buys it over in Japan.

If at least 53,000 Ps3's get sold in Japan last week then the PS3 could of outsold the 360 in worldwide sells again.

[power of Green]

Please post the Jap #s Tanods tip is broken.

#15 you think PS3 is undertracked in Europe? I can only imagine how undertracked the 360 is in Europe. Sh*t 360 has been undertracked by thousands even in the US the last few months.

[SmokeyMcBear]

ahahahahahahahaha... undertracked in the us.. hahahahahahaha.. you did see the comparison between NPD numbers and VGcharts numbers right.. ahahahaha... undertracked.. right...

[Account deleted]

well this story is incomplete as all of the others pointed out,, but hey don't bash out vgchartz otherwise how can we even make our weekly fan-wars npd numbers are monthly, one fight in a month or four FTW but i must be pointed out that the ps3 is undertracked in europe(france is a good example) hey can anyone provide with a way to get my hands on gfk charts i can't seem to find them thx in advance

[Lightning Mr Bubbles]

I think in Japan PS3 outsold 360 by like 30k, if they lucky. So 360 still won this week by 20k.

Last week PS3 won by a little. So obviously it's a bad sign for PS3. They're moving back instead of foward again.

In the end it all leads to the same thing. The PS3 is doomed.

[SmokeyMcBear]

oh boy.. noooo games.. the ps3 has nooooooooo AAA games... oh some say.. compared to the library of games the 360 has.. and the fact that is still 100 dollars more expensive.. haha.. doomed is right buddy.. but you got the wrong console

[salgoods]

in Japan? ONLY by 30k? with GT5 Prolouge out. not likely.

[Primetimebt]

If japan wasn't added I take a wild guess and I will say monthly total for the PS3 and 360 are as followed:

PS3- 30K low
360- 8K high at best

[ddamaged1]

ps3 50k wii 45k xbox 360 1k and i think thats it

[Bladestar]

mmmm... so... let me get this straight... Sony fanboys victory dance didn't last too long... The xbox 360 is not back at outselling the PS3 worldwide! ... yeah.. and don't say... that this list does not include Japan.. since we all know that the PS3 is not selling 52,000 consoles a week... so, even if you include japan.. it still not selling more consoles than the xbox 360.... kind of sad that even after having a $400SKU (cheaper than the elite)... sony can't beat the xbox 360 consistantly.

[Lightning Mr Bubbles]

You brag about PS3 $399 Sku being cheaper than the Elite.

That $399 is PS3's low end sku, The 80GB is more popular. 360's low end sku is $279. Their most popular is the Premium, I think.

360 is outselling the PS3 worldwide yes. But I'll try to be logical atleast.

[Bordel_1900]

Now who's the sad one.....

[Lightning Mr Bubbles]

my guess

Wii 80k
PS3 29k
360 20k

Remember Japan got Lost Odessy or whatever not too long ago. So that should boost up their sales.

PS3's white sku and price cut already wearning off.

In the end it all leads to the same thing. The PS3 is doomed.

Edit:I say A and B are the same. Being in third place is an embarresment. Might as well go the way of the Dreamcast. I won't look at you any different.

[Achievement Unlocked]

either

a.) ps3 has been outsold and outperformed so much that its the next dreamcast.

or

b.) ps3 will remain in 3rd place this gen.

my vote goes to answer b.

[lonestarmt]

your insane and not in the good way. The first week LO game out 360 barely sold over 6k. There is no way in hell its at 20k. The numbers normally drop off. Wrong again lighting haha

[chrno6]

360 sold for 20k???? It sold for only 7k when LO was debuted, and u expect it to drive sales to another 13k after 2 weeks. I don't blame you since apparently many 360 fanboys are incapable to understand basic math and the relativity of time.

[DJ]

When is VG Chartz going to start including the entire Globe in its Global estimates? I still wonder how long they're going to get away with publishing information that's essentially false...

[ReBurn]

As long as it continues to drive people to their site and bring in a stream of ad revenue.

[power of Green]

Holiday increase in sales + PS3 selling either a bit more or more than likely 5 or 6 thousand less than 360 does not = a PS3 comeback.

[DJ]

VG Chartz is notorious for understating PS3 figures by 15% and overstating 360 figures by 10%. If you want factual information, use NPD or data provided by console manufacturers. VG Chartz is just a bunch of guesswork.

[lonestarmt]

o really?? haha ok in the summer ps3 was loosing 4 to 1, now it beats the 360 or barely looses to it world wide. Not its only lossing 1.6 to 1 in america. Sorry green, comeback as already happened.

[Primetimebt]

330K this week in north america for the 360 is favorable mark. I doubt its really that high but the least the 360 fanboy can have wet dreams at night until the NPD number come out again and show them they're still in last place in world wide sales.. Enjoy and flame on..

[Relcom]

The american charts just got released. Enjoy your future flameing.

[zerolinkgannon]

Hell, The DS is a beast!

[HondaSIRowner]

That game was the 360's last hope to sell big units in Japan, but failed to do so.

Never again will 360 be mentioned in Japan. The doors are now slammed shut on MoneySoft.

The only two that exist is Nintendo and Sony.

[eagle21]

Look at ps2, it might sell on par with 360 in America this December. And outsell it worldwide. PS3 needs japan numbers which I am sure will put on par with 360 or more. Look at PSP! Great week for everyone but Nintendo and Sony sell so many damn systems it's unreal.

[JasonPC360PS3Wii]

I'm realy starting to feel sorry for the PS3 and it's fans (((NOT))) I like it when Droids pull fantasy numbers out of their butts.

[moolox]

is this like a world series baseball thing for chartz.

Global sales matter and there both level pegging behind the wii.

Simply put for you stepford MS boys.

If US jonny sells 5 apples and 2 oranges and rest of world jonny sells 6 oranges and 3 apple how many of each has he sold. looking at the figures MS have the same problem they had last time they are selling well in there core market but they can't take it to the next step which is the global leader.

[i_like_ff7]

count japan in, and im guessing ps3 will sell more.

[HondaSIRowner]

Its been 1.52 million since the beginning of November, it should be around 1.80-2 mill. Change that $hit!

[ISA_Scum]

People, seriously, it's VGchartz. Ignore this, it's not real info. Wait for REAL numbers.

[Xbox is the BEST]

when VG charts shows anything in PS#3's favor its real info right?

[kevin1122]

why dont you actually use that line on someone who has said that instead of attacking a random poster you pencil d!ck,

[Xbox is the BEST]

there is so many I don't know were to begin, but by your response I guess it's directed at you.
Do Blu and Play B3hind

[TwissT]

I know the VG chartz numbers are educated guesses I didn't expect the numbers between 360 and Ps3 to be close. The Ps3 may be in 3rd but you people have to admit its making a really good fight.

[HarryEtTubMan]

iTS SOOO FUNNY... Heres whats really happeningin the world guys.... THE CONSOLES ARE ALREADY TIEING. PERIOD. When Japans numbers are added and everything is authentic the consoles are selling almost IDENTICAL. Thats good for a 399$ PS3 and sucks relly really bad for the 360... LET IT BE KNOWN... THEY DONT HAVE A CHANCE IN HELL OF EVER WINNING by the Time the PS3 gets dont selling in 9 years. Period. I love it!

Face it, the PS3 is keeping up with the 360 sales at a 150$ higher price and with "no games". IMAGINE NEXT HOLIDAY. This is the FIRST PS3 SEASON with Europe, the US and Japan all selling at the same time. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CONSOLE!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA PS3 IS GONNA WIN SOOO BAD I LOVE IT STUPID IDIOTS

[ReBurn]

The console sales don't tell the story quite like the software sales do. The attach rates for PS3 software are still really bad. UT3 selling less than 70K in the first week? Wow. I thought that game was going to kill Halo 3, but after 12 weeks Halo 3 still sold nearly twice as many copies. Unless Sony finds a way to get us PS3 owners to buy more games than movies the platform is going to suffer.

[bootsielon]

360 and PS3 are roughly tied. 360 sells like 3000 a week, PS3 like 55000.

[WilliamRLBaker]

wow how many multiple accounts does this guy have? wish the admins would do their jobs.

[Account deleted]

i heard that the gfk figures are way more accurate than vgchartz, that might be interesting so we can compare sales outside the states, so can anyone post something about this... (i know posting links here is banned but i dunno if you can find another way thanks in advance)

[jorellpogi]

PS2: 491,520 - PS2 might reach 130+ million by the end of 2008.

[Cyrus365]

So new Global sales after getting the japan data is:

DS: 1,641,797
Wii: 691,568
PSP: 624,682
PS2: 512,520
360: 511,602
PS3: 503,055

PS2 actually manages to out sell 360 by under 1000 units give or take a few. 360 out sell Ps3 globally by 8000 units or so.
