Everyone, leave him be. If he wants to run this thread, on what is a potentially flawed analysis - let him. There really shouldn't be *any* debate comparing the PS3 performance to the PS2 - it should be comparing the PS3 with the GC:

(Japan)

(Other)

(US)
http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=PS2&reg1=America&cons2=PS3&reg2=America&cons3=GC&reg3=America&weeks=156

Its easy to see that the PS3 is tracking *exactly* like the GC - in the US & Japan anyway.

 however, I even think that PS3 will eventually sell dbl as much GC did so I expect it to track higher in the coming months
