A few weeks ago when PS3 2009 passed PS3 2008 YTD I questioned whether it would be able to build up a big enough lead to still be ahead when it caught up with 2008's MGS4 bump. With the help of the FFXIII demo it should do that quite easily now.

Famitsu:

Through week 18:

PS3 2009: 472k
PS3 2008: 385k

Through week 24 (MGS4 week):

PS3 2008: 504k

Media Create:

Through week 18:

PS3 2009: 495k
PS3 2008: 393k

Through week 24 (MGS4 week):

PS3 2008: 513k

With six weeks to go PS3 should already be ahead of it in 2-3 weeks time by Famitsu, and 1-2 weeks time by Media Create.
