Also surprised by how many Sony-only selling shops there are in Iran. I saw 3 nearby each other.

Well yea just 7 years ago the name videogame was synonymous with Sony, everyone had a playstation. When I brought my Xbox there and showed them 4 player split-screen with Halo:CE they kept calling my xbox a sony. So i would imagine its still a pretty big brand. However since Iran doesn't get any games from publishers their only way of gaming is through piracy hence why the 360 is so big there now. The only way a PS3 would be worth it would be if a person had a friend or relative that traveled a lot and bought the games for them since importing is practically impossible.

Which markets did you go to that you saw the PS3's?
