Grats to ND. Can't beleive GOW sold more than GOW. lol

[Minato-Namikaze]

why? Sales are usually simliar for the franchises, with GeOW being slightly ahead.

[buddymagoo]

What shows is that Playstation have released two massive exclusives on that software list compared to Microsofts none.

And Sony have sold a combined 7,751,508 hardware units. Congrats!!

[Thomper]

Is Gears not exclusive then?

[Cuzzo63]

Wow. Ps3 market share is over 50%. Reminds me of the Sony is gonna go out of business and the Ps3 Doom articles

[animegamingnerd]

man i love my 3DS hands down probably the console i have played the most this year

[o-Sunny-o]

I should buy my 3DS back so many games came out and coming out. I guess I'll give my Vita a rest. ^~^

[Concertoine]

Why do people downvote this lol? In terms of 2013 the 3ds probably has the best lineup versus the other consoles, everyones been playing 3ds this year.

[Lovable]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
So many good games on 3ds, but how come it doesn't satisfy me playing on a small screen? Damn it

[B-radical]

Not bad for microsofts 2nd console the 360 really has built up the xbox name since the first xbox didnt sell that well

[Fergusonxplainsall]

Nice to see Tomb Raider getting bought still. That game is amazing but short.

TLOU is a masterpiece.

[Christopher]

Compared to most games, it's actually a good length game. Too bad the multiplayer wasn't up to par, but it wasn't short.

[Bathyj]

Wow. I knew the last of us was going to be brilliant but I didn't think it would be the best selling game of the year thus far. Obviously GTA5 will overtake it in a few weeks but that doesn't diminish this masterpiece. Well deserved.

[Bowzabub]

Hey! There's that 50% again. xD

[LoveSpuds]

Good to see all consoles have been selling well even over the toughest economic period in recent memory.

Now China is opening the door for console sales in that region I reckon we will see a lot of effort to capitalize on that market and shift even more PS3 and 360, this generation is far from over.

Will be interesting to see what that market does to the figures. Sony must be considered as the only ones supporting their aging consoles properly so you would think this would be the obvious choice.

Having said that, and this might be a sweeping statement, but the Chinese sure do like their fake goods and pirated games so this could be the 360's trump card with piracy being something that is much more prevalent on MS hardware.

[fsfsxii]

You're being too unbiased. Pick a side or the rabid fanboys will eat you up

[medman]

Good to see Naughty Dog and Sony doing well. This dominance will continue into the next generation, and I'm looking forward to getting my hands on that DS4.

[o-Sunny-o]

PS3 still has Tales of Xilia, Kingdom Hearts hd, FF10/2 hd, Beyond, and more.
PS4 tons of Greatness Awaits. ^~^

[DEATHxTHExKIDx]

3DS will probably stay on top till next gen. Or it might stay on top since Pokemon comes out around then.

[specialguest]

PS3 is up there with the 3DS. That's pretty impressive.

[shinrock]

Sooooooooo, VG is on point 2day. I just don't get it.

[DrRobotnik]

I feel bad for the WIIU. The original WII is still out selling it. And right before Sony/Microsoft release there new systems. It's like the Dreamcast all over again.

[AceBlazer13]

Too easy

[ufo8mycat]

The Last Of US desrves every sale - Well done

Am I reading this correctly - only 1.3m total world wide for Bioshock Infinite for 360?!?

Wow that game deserves WAY more sales and considering the 360 is the highest sales platform most of the time, that really is disappointing and a shame.

[Sgt_Slaughter]

The PS3 and 3DS are DOMINATING this year, it's ridiculous how well they are selling.

And both systems hold the Top 5 games sold in 2013 (so far)?

Holy crap...

[CathyRolphe6]

I checked BlackerD22's link and it looks cool actually...DO you guys have any additional info on this http://goo.gl/Fp9qx ?
