Why are people even talking about Amazon sales? I posted about Amazon sales on VGchartz in the past, and was immidietly and violently attacked by numerous posters almost every reply as I was told how "worthless" Amazon charts are. Why isn't that happening in this thread??? Because it's good news for PS3???".
Anyways, PS3 has ALWAYS been vastly overrepresented on Amazon. PS3 has always outsold 360 on Amazon, even before "slim". The PS3 fat was usually in the top 25 while the top 360 SKU was usually like 50-100. However in the reasl world of course 360 was outselling PS3 all those months.
I'm not sure why. My best guess is that PS3 fanboys go out of their way to order from Amazon to influence the rankings. Fanboys of Wii and 360 are apparantely not that rabid.
Actually when I look at Amazon I look RELATIVE to the past. And relative to the past amazon ranking, 360 is doing a lot better than I thought with it's recent faux price cuts, with no less than 5 hardware SKU's in the top 100 recently. After we adjust for Amazon chart's pro-PS3 bias, I suspect 360 will be easily outselling slim in the real world based on this data.
