PS3 YoY US up 77K to 388K
PS3 YoY Japan down 25K to 40K
PS3 YoY WW up 32K to 800K

So that means PS3 Europe had to go up a decent amount YoY in Europe even though last year was GT5 launch week. Sorry dont buy it.

how do you know this?

Looking at last years numbers. 

PS3 311K US
PS3 65K Japan
PS3 267K Europe
PS3 768K WW

Compared to opening post that says PS3 800K with 388K US and Media Create said 40K Japan.

so what dont you like about it?

He is saying that PS3 can't be up YoY in europe this week because it had GT5 launch last year the same week.

A price cut is more universally appealing than a single game.  TBH I can't make head nor tail of numbers as stuff keeps changing - as Kow says all over the play currently.

However, I wouldn't find it too hard to believe the price cut pushed PS3 up YOY in Europe.  Even in UK it probably pushed it up a bit and outside UK probably more.
