apparently 360 outsold PS3 2:1. If that is true then the PS3 numbers are very good, perhaps very slightly overtracked. It would be 155k, obviously there is Canada but probably only has a few thousand considering there is no black friday.

 According to that, "360 software outsold PS3 and Wii software combined."

 Vgchartz has

Wii: 2,521,741

PS3: 943,709

-------------------

Total: 3,465,450

 

360: 2,369,203

 

Difference: 1,096,247

 

And apparently it OUTSOLD them combined, not sold the same as, so the actual difference is some number greater than that.

Well now that they made that claim I have to doubt their data.  That's never happened (or even come close to happening) in the last few months.  I call bullshit on that.  I can't imagine they would even have access to retail sales data of Sony and Nintendo software.  So yeah, now I wonder if they made up the first claim too.
