Rounded it's ~30 million as it's not near 40 million yet.

Sony sold 33.5 million PS3 until the end of 2009. (So 5.5 million more PS3s than the XBox 360 sold by the end of 2008, despite the extra delay for countries other than Japan/NA and the difference in entry pricing)

Hilarious. You just had to post the damage control eh? You just couldn't let it go..

Indeed, I agree the 30 mill figure must be wrong for other reasons.

But since when did companys not paint the brightest picture? They shipped 33.5, they would say that, not 30 million. No company would round DOWN sales .. for goodness sakes MikeB I wish you would read back your posts before you hit the button.
