Great sales for all consoles.

New releases are doing exceptionally well.

12
Forza Motorsport 4 (X360)
Microsoft, Racer
3 120,167

881,606
38
Gran Turismo 5 (PS3)
Sony Computer Entertainment, Racer
49 36,468 6,633,691

This gonna get good in the coming weeks...

I agree, especially since Forza "3" is bundled for MS this year and it's overall sales may eclipse GT5 because of it.

Those bundles are supposedly already out but I haven't seen an increase for F3 or Fable 3. My guess is retailers are getting rid of the older stock before bringing those bundles out.

I dont trust BF3 numbers, almost a million difference between ps3 and 360 but ps3 has constantly more active online players. If we can trust this site(http://bf3stats.com/), but its linked from bad company site also, so i guess its legit. I checked few times over past few days and EVERY time ps3 had more active players.

Yeah PS3 usuallly has the most players in the morning. But when school is out and people are back from workt he Xbox 360 numbers jump and have a huge lead over PS3.(right now the Xbox 360 has the most players with a lead of about 20k over PS3)

Wow, the PS3 and PC are basically tied with the 360 trailing. The opposite to what this site shows


As of now the stats reflect the site pretty well

I think the answer is that most of the 360 BF players are from America (that is, a bigger percentage than for PS3/PC) so they will come on later than the Europeans.


Yep between 3 and 8 PM Central Standard Time is when the most users are on for 360 games.

Gears of Wars sales are quite bad in terms of legs, its getting outsold by games from months ago,

gears isn't known for great legs like uncharted is, most of the gears fanbase buys the game straight away but gears will get 7m+ but very slowly

Those online numbers for BF3 are low considering all the hype and buzz and the millions of copies sold and compared to the numbers for a game like Black ops.

Gears and similar titles are typically frontloaded and no one expects them to hang around the top ten for very long. But, you'll be hard pressed to find console exclusives besides Nintendo games this gen that have the same opening week sales and lifetime sales.

Great sales all around, and for PS3 for doing up a 300k week! PS3 is number 1 so far this year in overall software sales, but that will change once MW3 comes out, will be a good finish this year though.

Very impressed with UC2(5 million incoming) and ME2 as well.

True,but with UC3,it should be pretty close.

Don't forget Skyrim!
