Xbox 360 was adjusted up by 120k

Once, casualness, twice, coincidence, but three times or more is more than suspect, now we have the proof: MS moneyhats VGC!!!

 

I do agree, trying to make up for November NPD difference in a low profiile way. 30K last week and a 120 this week, which makes up for the 150K more reported by NPD. Things like this never happens to PS3.

I think the week of 15 Nov got a big upward adjustment. The 360's worldwide sales for that week are now above the PS3's, it wasn't like that originally.

PS3 makes it 6 weeks in a row selling above 500K worldwide. Nice achievement, though it pales next to Wii's 5 weeks above 1 million. I't a shame PS3 didn't make a 1 million week, this holidays. Without a price cut before the next holidays it's unlikely to get a million selling week then either.

All I know is the gap between the PS3 and 360 was ~5.4 million before these numbers (where the PS3 outsold the 360 by almost 200k), and now the gap is just over 5.5 million. These were some big adjustments indeed, (+ for 360).

The smallest the gap has ever been was when the PS3 first launched, it was ~5.3 million

I am very excited to see the PS3 be closer than EVER before (hasnt happened yet). But with Adjustments like these... it is frustrating having to wait.

Once the PS3 is within 5 million, than it is definitely going to be a big deal. Microsoft will just have to stuff the chanel and claim they are still ~8 million ahead of the PS3. I hope Microsoft sees what is going on and are not in denial of the fact that within a month (regardless of what suprise adjustments are made) the PS3 will be closer to catching the 360 than it ever has been.
