It will be very interesting to see that chart for Jan - Dec as it will include Gears 2, Fable 2, Fallout 3, GHWT, & CoDWaW.

 

That will definitely be interesting. Nevertheless are neither of these titles even remotely close to GTA in sales, so I don't think the overall picture will change. I even think the difference will be bigger. If you read the Gamasutra article you'll see that Wii sold as much software as 360, in a month without big 360 releases and with Fallout and Fable for 360.  And Wii will have continued stellar sales of Wii Fit, Mario Kart, SSBB as well as Animal Crossing and legs for GHWT.

 

 Uhm.. Gears 2 will easily be 2m in 2 weeks in the US, how is this not remotely close? And we still have the whole holiday for it to sell.

Anyway, its no doubt that Wii software will continue to sell in truckloads as the Wii has captured the imagination of the masses and droves of people are buying the software just to experience the hardware.

Having said that, I still think the 360 can at least match the software of the Wii this holiday and I think that is a good achievement as it will have a higher attach ratio, seeing how the Wii has zoomed by in install base.

This holiday is important as the PS2 generation is going to upgrade and have to make a choice now, more so than ever before.
