Man, 360's really on fire in the US. Great job to Microsoft.
It's only going to get bigger once Reach drops.
Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!
Kojima: Come out with Project S already!
If Microsoft could just keep steady sales in Japan they would be set. In the other countries the Xbox 360 outsells the PS3/Wii but they still have a decent sales weekly.

I like your sexy avi better than Seece's robot, so I'll post here, even though he posted first.
Really good sales for PS3 and 360. Who woulda ever thought at $299 vs $200 PS3 and Wii would be basically tied. I reckon 360s must be taking sales away from what would have been Wii sales. I think that's mostly the result of 360 overcoming the last of the RROD bugbear. Imagine what 360 could have done in its first 5 years without RROD.

Wait... what? It's only selling alot because of the redesign, not because the RROD has disappeared, it's now the RDOD (Red Dot of Death) even if there's not so much cases. And some of the 360 sales (not alot, but still) were thanks to the RROD because dudes had to buy another 360, so it would have done even worse than what it did with it...

RDOD? Is it true? Do you have a link? I am thinking about getting 360 soon.

I just found out that RDOD really exists, but it is easily fixable. It is just a HDD connection issue.
It seems that you are just misinformed, dude.

In the last 2 months the 360 has outsold the PS3 by 700k consoles in total ww sales. It looks like PS3 will not be able to overtake the 360 until 2013 at the earliest. Maybe the 360 can hold the PS3 off from taking second place for the entire 7th generation.
