I have also doubts about CoD4 (Xbox 360) selling 3 times as many as PS3 version (0.45 mln vs 0.14 mln). It's true that in most countries Xbox 360 is the leading platform (acording to European charts) with only one exception - Spain. Hovewer in UK Xbox 360 version sold only around 2 times as many as PS3 version. As UK is the country where Xbox 360 advantage over PS3 is the biggest I found it hard to belive that other, less-favouring for MS markets could help Xbox CoD4 enough to beat PS3 version 3:1. (As the charts are avalible for a few days now I am assuming that only first week of CoD sales are taken in account).

 The 360 version sold 2:1 in UK To all other versions combined. Link

Here are the charts for that week. The charts also include a PC version! so the 360 version outsold the PS3 version>2:1 in UK. As for the PES. The PS2 version>The 360 version>The PS3 version.
