How can PS3 sell so much? What is driving its sales? (dont say it was KZ3 cos that's not a sistem seller).

KZ3 bundles are probably accountable for about an eight of those sales, which is impressive, otherwise it'd probably be about ~350k, 100k below Wii, also don't forget some of the promotions that big retailers are offering, $50 off etc.

But the way I see it... Even if there are physically 50,000 Killzone 3 bundles it doesnt mean that the boost from KZ3 is anywhere near 50,000 consoles.

I mean, if I was a guy looking into buying a PS3, obviously I would pick a good bundle instead of a non-bundle if the price difference is much smaller than the price of the full game. But that doesn't mean I wouldnt buy a PS3 at all that month if there was no such bundle.

Potential buyer and those impulsed into buying are different though, if you had a phat PS3 and thought about buying a PS3 but decided not to, this would seem like a smashing deal considering you effectively get $60 off with the game included. Bundles sell, and those who just want to buy a PS3 and don't really care whether it's bundled or not buy it anyway, I think I see what angle you're coming from in regards to this though.
