This makes me laugh so hard. That means the numbers posted on the main page are totally off.

stop trolling, the numbers are fine (+/- 10% for all consoles)

 

 

Not that I agree with him, which I don´t but, for example:

VCG - PS3 - 180k

NPD = PS3 - 225k

45k difference - 45/180 = 0.25 = 25% off

 

PSP has more than a 10% difference too. I´m too lazy to do the others, so I´mjust gonna end it here. :D

 

 To put those figures into a bit of context looking at the actual numbers that is the equivelent to 1 months sales of PS3 in the UK. That is a big difference.

While people are laughing at the 360 they are actually forgetting/ignoring PS3 sales actually fell over 50% from last month. That is a big drop.
