hmmm...i get an odd feeling that 360>ps3. don't know why though. |
I doubt it, we usually get pre-emptive press release spin from Microsoft the day before NPD when they think PS3 outsold them, and they did it again yesterday.

well it was clear it was going to be outsold again.

Well, when Microsoft put out their spin the day before NPD they only have their own internal estimates, so it's quite possible for Microsoft to think they were outsold and for NPD to show the opposite. It's not the first time it's happened when the difference is close.
