 the PES series is the favourite game for most of the Arabic gamers ,,

it's really surprising that the ps3 is the market leader there :S

i thought the hacked 360 is gonna take the lead in the arabic countries

 

 no it's not, winning eleven is (or maybe that's just here in my country).

 

modded 360's should have taken the lead in the region but that didn't happen (there are modded wii's but nobody buys them because it doesn't have popular soccer or shooter titles,the ones that made ps and ps2 popular), but the fact is that the majority of people either don't know what xbox360 is or don't care. everybody i have met says that they will buy ps3 once it becomes modded.so expect a rise in ps3 hardware sales in others once that happens.
