Christmas week update:

1) As noted by Sigma, VGC scaled back their numbers for PS3 a bit last week so it didn't quite hit 1 million.

2) On the other hand, PS3 had another 900k+ week.

3) 360 sold better for the week this year than last year.

4) The above two notes are apparently the result of Christmas week being one day longer this year than last year, but both numbers are still surprisingly high to me.
