| mrstickball said: MikeB - ever notice that the UK is a much, much larger market than the markets your talking about, and *maybe* the fact the UK version sold about 1.5:1 would be enough to merely send the X360 version 4,000 units over the PS3? |
Europe is made up of many small markets, the UK market is a small market as well, which by itself is a small minority of the whole.
Some consoles sell there better than others (in comparison to other European countries), this also has to do with localization efforts (the native language for UK people is English just like is the case for the United States). Microsoft performs as good as no localization while for example Norwegian people (from a country with a tiny population of 4 million), Italian, Spanish, etc can all play many of Sony's PS3 exclusives with native voices and text.
