Great PS3 and 360 numbers.

Is this the first time ever that both the PS3 and 360 have outsold the Wii?

Also great ME2 boost....I hope it can keep that up and get to 3 million (A game that good deserves it!)


Sorry to be a killjoy but we're really heavily overtracking ME2. Bioware said they had sold 1.6 million between 360, retail PC, and Steam downloads back in May I think. That's sell-through, they said they had shipped 2 million after first week.

Look up the numbers from VGC, NPD, Chart Track and you'll find out that something is not right.

Also look what EA said shortly after the release of ME2: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=233156

EDIT: I'm not saying that our numbers are 100% correct, but NPD basically confirmed 1 million sales in the US at the time EA made that 1.6m statement. Between 100k and 200k in UK is also confirmed, so it COULD be a bit overtracked in Europe, but not much more than maybe 100k.

Or the PC version bombed incredibly hard which I don't believe either.
