Did DMC4 360 really outsell the PS3 version in EU?

DMC4 is probably just a game that the Xbox 360 owners in Europe like. I mean the 360 install base is still bigger in Europe, so why would the numbers be wrong?

Besides, i don' t think the Swedish and The Netherlands(where i'm from) markets are that big of a deal for the total numbers. Plus your other examples with PES 2008, Burnout and Assassin's Creed are all games in a different genre. Why would it be the same with DMC4.

Just wait for the numbers we get on monday to see if they were right. What i do think is that the PS3 version has longer legs in Europe than the 360 version. But we'll see.

I think the UK is the exception due to various factors, both versions hit the UK top 5 though (unlike in Germany), but the 360 version outsold the PS3 version due to the 360 still having a larger install base there and probably because the 360 version sells cheaper.

It's good to stay humble with regard to the infuence of your own country, but Sweden and the Netherlands combined with other small countries like Belgium, Norway, Denmark, Protugal, Switzerland, Austria, Finland, Poland, etc, etc is still a force to be reckoned with!

712 million people live in just Europe. The main markets UK, Germany, France, Italy and Spain combined adds up to only 60 + 82 + 64 + 59 + 45 = 310 million, less than half of the European population!
