GAF is down

This is arguably the biggest NPD since GTAIV for them, despite Nintendo giving away their Wii figures early. 

Plenty of gaffer's bet that the ps3 would top the 360 last month in November NPD because Sony came out bragging about their numbers, while MS stayed quiet. They were all proven wrong.  Of course, the 360 had MW2 bundles and the gift card deal, so it winning was no real surprise.

This month, however, is pure ps3 vs 360 sales, in the biggest month of the year.  It'll set the stage for what console sells better for the the first part of 2010, and for the non-believers on gaf, they have no idea which one might come out on top.

I'm sure the majority of sales-age gaf are F5'ing like mad right now.

Most of them expect the 360 to win anyway. It's funny how quiet MS has been about these numbers the last couple months.
