Well based on that info if true then i would guess maybe 360 numbers were correct and PS3 numbers were mybe in line with the old data before the adjustments so was probably overtracked. Either way i can't see there being too much difference between the two.

Mass Effect 2 numbers could be undertracked though. Guess we will find out soon.

PS3 is in stock on all the websites.
If it was as hard up as that would of thought online sales would of been effected too? But i don't live there so have no idea how people go about getting their consoles!
