Good to see PS3 sales increase over christmas. I expect them to drop to last throughout the year again though.

However, Look at the game attachment sales on this site. Gaming wise for Sony this is serious trouble.

Call of Duty 4 has sold 4.3 mill on 360 and only 2.6 mill on PS3.

 

Ok sir, you phail at maths. CoD4 on PS3 has a 27.6% attachment rate. CoD4 on 360 has a 25.8% attachment rate.

This guy debunked the OP, yet everybody has ignored his post.

The reason is because that doesn't debunk it. He has some flawed reasoning, however...

PS3 should have a much higher attach rate then 360. Not just a slightly higher attach rate when it comes to individual games.

While attach rate goes up total over a consoles time on the market. Individual game attach ratio drops drastically.

I'd guess on multiplatform games, the gamecube absolutely annihlates the 360 in attach ratio.

With a 7 million difference the attach ratio difference should be much higher... if that 7 million gap was made up, from what we know of attach rates it would suggest the PS3 would still sell less copies of CoD4.
