Hopefully in the lead up to the holidays these NPD threads will become exciting again.

I figured it was better to play it safe, sometimes some members can take stuff a little too seriously here.

On topic: I'm very impressed with the 360's continued high sales. I didn't expect such a sustained boost, especially without a price cut, but it's testament to the quality of the library and the new console.

• DS: 343K, down 55.3K (-13.9%)
• Wii: 244K, down 9.7K (-3.8%)
• PS3: 226K, up 11K (5.1%)
• PSP: 79K, down 4.6K (-5.5%)

I agree but having gotten into the ps3 I would readily admit it is a great console.

I use both and like them equally.
