PS3 is 40k higher than the PS2

Wow, is the PS3 really doing this well? I almost find it hard to believe.



  

I made a mistake, slap another week on the PS2 because there is about a 6 day difference between the timeframes

Ps3 is doing brilliantly to be honest



+24K shoka.

The ps3 has sold really well this year and is ontrack to outpaste the ps2 at the moment.



I think a more fitting comparison would be, PS3 2007 vs PS2 2001, because that was both their first in all territories
