Yeah. Half of the purchases are because it's a BR player. Especially the European ones (where the attach rate is higher than the 360's ).

 

Is that true? You'd think facts like that would stop the whole "PS3 owners don't buy enough games" stuff.

 

Not by a whole lot, but yes. VGC has PS3 at 4.96, 360 at 4.40, and Wii at 4.95.

 

*sigh*

I will repeat what I said in the Others weekly comments section:

"As for those talking about the PS3 attach ratio.... read what it says above the total software table:
SOFTWARE FIGURES ARE LARGELY INCOMPLETE!

The older a system is, the more software data is missing for PAL figures. So the Wii is slightly above the PS3 (although it includes Wii Sports, but there is a good argument against taking it out when talking attach ratio, who would buy a Wii but no game?)
The X360 will be missing a lot more data though and will have the highest ratio of the current gen in Europe just like it does in Americas (though it won't be as much of a difference as in America, and on a "from launch" basis is probably on par with Wii and PS3)"

 

Hmm that's interesting I didn't realise PS3 had a higher attach rate then Wii (not counting Wii Sports).
