wow 12th biggest week for a game for ODST, that is awesome sales.

Im guessing that is what 250k or so?



(29) 27 PS3 QUANTUM OF SOLACE?????????

Why the hell is the PS3 version of QoS climbing up the ladder? Is there a sale on or something? The game is mediocre at best and there is no sign of the 360 version to match an official price drop from Activision




PS3 is outselling most 360 major 3rd party titles - seems a continuation of the Batman trend, despite the continued smaller install base.

~225k for ODST

For the UK, or for Europe and Others as a all? If for all the PAL region, that seems quite low in regards of "Halo 3" first week.

Re UK chart: Interesting to see which 3rd party titles have higher sales on 360 and which have higher sales on PS3.

PS3: NEED FOR SPEED: SHIFT; BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM; WET; QUANTUM OF SOLACE; IL2 STURMOVIK: BIRDS OF PREY; FAR CRY 2; CALL OF DUTY: WORLD AT WAR

360: MARVEL ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 2; GUITAR HERO 5; COLIN MCRAE: DIRT 2;

The balance being in favour of PS3 and especially for the new release NFS should mean PS3 HW in UK is higher than 360 for last week.

Also interesting to see some of the Wii old favourite getting a significant lift from last week. Could well mean Wii went ahead of PS3 in the UK last week. Expect another significant narrowing of the PS3/Wii gap in Others, but will Wii flip into the lead in Others overall?

Maybe people trying to preorder Tecmo's "Quantum" ? :D

And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

interesting analysis. it will be next to impossible for multiplatform title to win on XBOX from now onwards in Europe.. 



In Uk there some PS3 Slim bundles with World At War and not sure, but in a soon future, yes, there will be bundles with Shift, FIFA 10 and Uncharted 2.

@Noobie - wait for Modern Warfare 2!

It all depends on the game - some are more suited to the Xbox audience, some to PS3.

So u r saying that MW2 will shift more units on XBOX even in Europe than on PS3.? i will keep an eye on it.
