The thing is though yeah it is not that great when you compare it to the past sales but MS are nowdays the only company to come out and say something. It is easy for us to criticise them when the others give us nothing.
Reading that report above they seem to indicate that if it was not for the 360 games sales would be terrible. If it is the worst month since 2006 with 360 having near half the market then what does it say about the other two? They need to man up and start putting their numbers out imo.
VGC did well this month in tracking of the 360 (even though it is still under-tracked for like the 8th month in a row or something now) but as yet we don't know the other 2 numbers. When we have those then we will have a better idea of how the market is right now imo. There are two interesting comments in those reports and that is that now NPD and EEDAR have said PS3 and 360 are pretty much neck and neck worldwide now, NPD going so far as to say they expect 360 to outsell PS3 worldwide for 2011. Which when you look at the VGC numbers makes that look a bit silly. Either NPD are seriously over-estimating the 360 or VGC have been over-estmating the PS3. I think most of the netural people know which is the more likely!
