Oh, oh, it's my country, and i just see the news at jeux-france.

In "Les Echos", it's write that:

« A ce jour, nous avons vendu près de 500.000 Xbox 360 dans l'Hexagone et 8 millions de joueurs dans le monde sont abonnés à notre service Xbox Live, estime François Ruault, directeur de la division produits de loisirs de Microsoft.

So, the number of 500,000 is not reached. The right number is below 500,000, maybe 490,000 or more, this is not clearly said the right number. Second, it's only an estimation of François Ruault.

For the other number of wii and ps3, in the article of jeux-france. No source, it's an info give by them, with no precision.

NB Before the launch of halo 3, microsoft speak of 430,000 xbox 360 sold in France. So if ioi think he must something, he will certainly use these two numbers for doing good things.

For ps3, if the number of jeux-france is true, also the number of sony (100,000 consoles sold in France since price drop) is clearly false. So, the number of sony was shipped consoles and not sold to consumer. Even if, the last french software charts of week 46 we will know tomorow will show that ps3 is very good in France (assassin creed , call of duty 4, pes 2008.....).

lombard2578,

dont u remember an french article where Sony saied they will have a 500k user base of PS3 in France at the end of 2007 and that it will be more than the Xbox360 ?

100k overtrack for wii

15k for ps3

7k for X360

7k for 360? I just checked and its actually 557k for 360, so its at least 57k a what MS estimates

Without a date for when these numbers are tracking through, it's not entirely useful as a measuring stick for our data, but good for a platform comparison.

Yea like these guys are a reliable source.

But anyways 360 sales in France have been overtracked for awhile, yet still nothing has been done.

I still can't understand how the PS3 versions of Assassins Creed, COD4, PES08 can sell better on the PS3 then on the 360 if the userbase is half the size. Something doesn't compute.

The 360 loads backups, the ps3 doesn't.

 Simple, those are the only good games on the PS3 where as the 360 is littered with numerous triple A games.

@eugene

Your right, I mean the X360 has 100 AAA games, the ps3 only has 1. And that cod 4 hahaha. The wii has 0 . X360 is the best.
