Both Microsoft and Sony have set up offices in India and India got XBL much before many other countries. But India got PSN only the last month. Microsoft has a huge set up in Bangalore, Hyderabad and Delhi and has one of the largest research centres outside US in India. Console sales are nothing worth writing about to be honest as most gamers here are still playing CS and DoTA in dingy cafes. But over the past two years I've seen a rise in awareness on gaming on consoles in India and seen the sales rise by a good 100% consistently.


what baffles me is how DOTA and CS has been so popular in internet cafes (the chinese brought to latin american countries throuh migration) for so long and worldwide, from middle east to the caribbean!.I know they are low specs games, but why exactly DOTA AND CS.. Even after several of those latin countries long past the economical limitations of the late 90ths and a huge chunk of the population already owns gaming systems, some players go to cafes that HAVE MW2 and SC2 (legally so they can play online) and still rather play CS(not source!) and DOTA!.
