Another source for discussion:

“This is not the US. [Europe’s] quite different from the US in terms of market shares.” said Reeves. “…PS3 outsells Xbox 360 about 3 to 1. PS2 outsells Xbox 360 by 4 to 1…. In Japan, Xbox 360 does nothing….They have a good lineup and I think they’ve done a fantastic job coming into the market. But they said last year, ‘we’ve got the greatest lineup and this is the year we’re taking off.’ They’re just repeating it.

 

Unless tracking services are magnitudes or order off or he's comparing launch numbers against ordinary sales, I don't see how this is possible.

 

Between this and "PS2 outsells the Wii in every region, end of story," it seems like Sony execs just make up numbers.

 Since launch PS3 HAS out sold 360 by x3 in Eu, so hes right.

And given 360 lack of popularity in half the countries and VGs inabilty to get and decent numbers from those markets.  You really dont know whos selling how much.

 

you cant compare launch numbers with non launch numbers

last week ps3 only sold 6k more then 360, so i guess vg charts is really really off, and ps3 is selling alot more and xbox isnt selling any i guess at least according to you
