If those numbers are true then i think it means PS3 has been over-tracked 11 of the past 12 months on here. That would be quite an alarming pattern i think.

I was expecting bigger numbers from Mario Galaxy 2, but I don't know how many weeks this list cvers (it's only for May or May-June) Also huge drop for UFC this year.

It's just May, or with these numbers just one week of sales.
