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.


I think the OP screwed up and was referring to October software numbers. Everytime i've read an article on last weeks sale they've all mentioned that the 360 outsold both the PS3 and Wii combined in software for the month of October. 360 54% share, Wii 30%, PS3 16%

No official software numbers have been release by NPD as of yet

Edit - Damn too slow Naz beat me to it!


Yeah, I wasn't sure (never depend on some random dude posting on an internet forum), so I put "According to that" and "apparently"...



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick
