interesting.

Dutch love PS3 and football. no doubt FIFA 09 (PS3 version) came out top.

[PirateThom]

It did, scroll to the bottom got "All"

1. FIFA 09 - PS3
2. FIFA 09 - 360

[zimbo007]

expect PS3 to outsell x360 by big margin in europe this week

Fifa/PES are huge franchises in europe

BTW Uncharted has passed 200k in europe according to ESLA. so around 1.5m in europe by now. It also sold 300k in Germany according to Gamona.de

Fifa 09 was advertised as ps3 exclusive in almost all parts of europe except UK

In Spain,Germany,Italy and France PS2 version outsold the x360 version

http://www.game.es

LOL what a shame?

@omega

x360 never outsold PS3 in europe
the PRICE CUT never made any impact in europe except UK
However UK SPIKE for a week/2 isnt enough to offset the huge differences in other EU territories

www.game.es
www.amazon.fr ??where is x360???and its games
www.amazon.de
www.micromania.fr

U dont find x360 in there

[Sofa King Retarded]

i hope you own stock in Sony corp. Otherwise your life is just sad

[JOLLY1]

The 360 software is doing quite well. I guess (according to nasim) the 360 is constantly being outsold by the ps3. Yet the software sales show that people buy 360 game. Yes fifa sold more on the ps3, but the Xbox versions sold more on Brothers in Arms and on Star Wars. Good Job MS.

[lawman1108]

First it's the UAE in the Middle East now this. Just sad how you Sony Homo's try and spin sales. The PS3 has a sucking chest wound and is bleeding out waiting to die. Face facts

[JOLLY1]

Must be some sort of slam in his country.

Seriously kid what did I tell you about pming me? Don't do it. Your information is wrong and lame. I think that it is great that the 360 got #2 on the software sale charts with no advertising. That is incredible!

here have this tissue

expect massive bump in PS3 HW sales next week thanks to Fifa 09

Too bad x360 version isnt even advertised anywhere in europe except UK

PS3 version will pound the x360 version in Spain/France /germany and italy --regions which make up 70% of eu sales

sucks to be an XBOT

hahaaaaaaaa

PS3 will get HW boost but too bad no one cares about x360 in europe

[Omega4]

Seems like 360 games are doing better than their PS3 counterparts except for Fifa...at least for now

But considering the 360 is outselling the PS3 WW for a while now including the EU due to the pricecuts the difference is obviously very VERY small

[Why o why]

UK and NA ONLY. The rest of europe aint feeling the 360. Also theres not enough exclusives on the 360. Its blown its load and only have Fable and gears in the forseable future.

Not enough 1st party studios to keep up

look at it this way you either accept that the year headstart for the 360 was wasted because the ps3 has caught up or overtaken to the 360 or that the ps3's attach rate is equal or better than the 360's with less units out there

[Omega4]

What ever makes you feel better, personally i like to live in the real world rather than a fantasy one like you

"Not enough 1st party studios to keep up" Funny you should say that cause even though MS got far less studios it still manages to put out more exclusives than Sony in a fraction of the time

[Why o why]

like what in 2008??

please do tell mr 'reality'...lol

and keep up as in 'you're doing ok now but what next' keep up

[White-Sharingan]

"360 is outselling the PS3 WW "

have you been hiding on a rock? this isnt 2006 anymore

sure the sales may be higher worldwide this month but you state for a while; last time I checked 360 got a price cut recently

not a while ago

plus im pretty sure that will revert back to normal pretty soon (360 being last on WW sales)

[Agent VX]

Yep, the Danes like their football (soccer). Fifa is looking good this year, too bad its an EA product.

As for Why o Why - Wow, your full of complete deceiption and lies. The 360 for the last few weeks has been obliterating the PS3 in sales world wide.

Last Week Sales
The worldwide sales for the 360 = 178,421
The worldwide sales for the PS3 = 118,720

In each region, the 360 outsold the PS3. This is also true in for the Danes.

EDIT: It is actually funny how I now never see "Console Sales" articles on this site now that the 360 is outselling the PS3 worldwide. They just suddenly stopped. Wonder why that is???

[Agent VX]

Thats funny, I really don't remember talking to you!!! It's nice to see you don't read my comment and then call me a moron.

Believe that I was directing my comment to "Why o Why", but hey, if you have to call someone names for no reason, I don't mind.

[Why o why]

that the 360 sales are better than the ps3's. Ur kidding urself fellas but this little sales spike is only that. The 360 needed it MS wouldnt state that Europe is loyal to sony for no reason and since theres more than just the UK in europe its easy to see why they would say such a thing. Every little helps and the little spikes doesnt change the fact that the ps3 outsold the 360 last year (according to MS not the fanboys) and for the majority of this year......suck it up

and Omega4

since i see you have bubbles but have not listed the exclusives you speak of ill condider that an admition of sh!t talking. Just another 'bag of chat'

[zimbo007]

PS2 version is beating it comfortably in Germany,Spain,France and Italy

www.game.es

haha what an embarrassment?

@OMEGA THE TROLL IN THE GAMER ZONE

X360 never beat the PS3 in europe/PAL region

I repeat NEVER

the price cut had effect in UK only

It made no impact in europe

www.game.es
www.amazon.fr
www.amazon.de
www.micromania.fr

U dont find x360 in there

PS3 might have beaten x360 4:1 in PAL region for the week
Fifa 09 wasnt even advertised for x360 anywhere in europe except UK

[JOLLY1]

No advertising and it still got #2 on the list? That is pretty impressive I must say. Thanks for pointing that out nasim. With the fact that it beat the ps3 in software sales on 2 other multiplat games it really shows that a lot of people purchase Xbox software.

[MaximusPrime]

its great to hear that whole of Europe is devoted to PS3. Unfortunately, UK yet to catch up.

Im from UK and there are mixed supports. i cant tell which console is on top.

[heyheyhey]

i know man...

i've seen just as many 360-owners as PS3-owners and GAME and the like dedicate the same amount of space to both consoles... so it's hard to notice who's winning

one thing i've noticed though is that WHSmith only stocks PS3 and Wii games... not 360 games

[MaximusPrime]

unfortunately whsmith in my area doesn't stock PS3 games. (who cares? WHsmith mainly deal with magazines and stationaries)

Both GAME and HMV has more PS3 rows of shelves than xbox 360's.

recently in GAME store, PS3 hardware and software were moved from the back of the room to the front, near the entrance. The xbox 360 hardware and software are now in the back. I have noted more PS3;s hardware and software have been sold in my area. Dont know about elsewhere.

[Internet Trolling Ex]

The way it has been,the way it will always be

[cow moolester]

The English speaking countries in Europe tend to go for the 360. That's UK & Eire.

[heyheyhey]

yeah, and you'd think we're smarter than that lol

but seriously, it's very neck and neck in here..... 360 leads LTD sales by 0.7mil, but the support is there for both sides in equal measure

[eagle21]

And PES. It will this year as well. :)

[FaSeCeX]

dont u belong in the open zone? i swear u pull things str8 out ur @$$...the 360 has more total sales world wide <<--does not mean they're outselling ps3 world wide, it only deceives u because it came out a yr earlier
look at sales for both consoles in THEIR 1st 24 months..then come back and talk lol i dont kno what they are but i can bet they are probly very close...i let u fanboys look that up..if the "360 is outselling the PS3 WW", like u say it is, and the ps3 still has games like r2, k2, heavy rain, lbp..then so be it..QUANTITY does not bring QUALITY, buddy ;)

[Sena Kobayashi]

By the way some of you guys are talking its like the Dutch charts is the new Japan charts. its like ohhhh FIFA09 Ps3 sold better thant the one on 360! Oh yeah this must mean that the 360 is failling! But when you think of it brothers in arm sold better on 360 and so did StarWars and come to think of it X360 Outsold the Ps3 in japan for 3week straight and now your taking the dutch charts that seriously.

[mboojigga]

Bottom line....bubbles for you

[JOLLY1]

I love making fun of nasim for posting the Dutch charts. He will try and find any chart that has one ps3 game above any 360 game. Then he will instantly post how the 360 is floping. It is quite comical. Oh, and in case you didn't know zimbo is one of nasims 10 different accounts.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

haha so true Sena! Isn't it funny how all of sudden since the 360 has been beating the PS3 in regions like Japan that all the like vgchartz have stopped being posted on N4G?

"I love making fun of nasim for posting the Dutch charts. He will try and find any chart that has one ps3 game above any 360 game. Then he will instantly post how the 360 is floping. It is quite comical."

Comical?? Try just plain sorry.. haha Great point!

Oh and expect all of us to drop yet another bubble for posting this. I noticed the bubble taking has gotten a lot more agressive from the fishheads now that there arguments are starting to fall apart.

[Mr_Potato_]

It's a spike in Japan for the 360 due to 3 RPG. Seriously it made 24k sales -> 12k this week, it's already over lol. Stop dreaming guys, the crapbox is still dead in Japan.

You're hilarious.

[Sena Kobayashi]

360 outsold the Ps3 3weeks straight in Japan . Normaly you guys always talk about japan and now that japan isnt buying the PS3 for a few weeks yall talking about how much the Dutch people love the ps3. tssss

[rafaleon]

Xbox outselling PS3 in most European countries, exceptions are the biggests markets such as FR,GER,ITA and SPA, in Central and Eastern Europe PS3 does not exist.Take a look at Sweden Q1 and Q2 chart:

http://n4g.com/industrynews...

[Grooski]

So what you're saying is that first half sales in Sweden show

(i) PS2+PS3 sales selling over 2 times the Xbox.
(ii) PS3 outselling the Wii
(iii) PS3 sales tripling over last year.

Damn Swedes, can't you show Sony the love??!!

[DeZimatoR]

Danes are the ppl from Denmark, you idiot! The ppl from Holland, or The Netherlands are the Dutch.

Geez, your ignorance makes me sick...

P.S. Omega, yeah I'd also like to know what are those awesome 360 exclusives released in 2008 until this moment. The only 2008 360 exclusive I can think of is Too Human, but I think that isn't considered 'AAA', or is it?

:D :D :D

[Internet Trolling Ex]

Fifa 09 selling better on ps3,confirmed

[JOLLY1]

Brothers in Arms and Star Wars selling better on 360....Confirmed

[ChickeyCantor]

i have to buy that damn soccer game for my brother( since i owe him, he paid for the Ps3 so i would get an extra controller and FifA a game i will never play.

and yes i live in the netherlands >_>,
