Those are pretty impressive PS3 numbers, it'll drop below 200K next week but should hover around that number for a while until the holiday season kicks in.

PS3 over 360 by 100k?

We're at 1.7 gap.
Is this the lowest the gap has ever been?
Next week could be 60k over, which, with the math, should bring it to 1.6 or so.

Decent temp spike for PS3 as expected, no big explosion though.

10 week countdown?

4weeks until halo4 and Cod hit... That'll increase the gap by a couple hundred thousand on its own. Then we have the holidays, where 360> PS3

no?

You don't know the 10 week countdown thread? I'm sure you do.

I know halo and cod are coming out, and that 360 usually beats ps3 in the holidays, that's why I said 'BRING IT'.

You say no, but your body says 'ready'.

I thought this was interesting.

Basically the DS dominated in the main territories, but look at Dat "REst of the World" section! If Nintendo were to push that then the DS would not be stopped. Now the DS has this Christmas and that will be about it for it, beyond price cuts, which should be very few from now on.

Pos	Platform	North America	Europe	Japan	Rest of World	Global
1	PlayStation 2 (PS2)	53.65	53.28	23.18	23.57	153.68
2	Nintendo DS (DS)	55.66	51.53	33.01	12.43	152.63

it's more like:

ds dominated in one main region called japan, usa and europe is pretty even and ps2 dominated in rest of the world. so no, ds didn't dominate "in the main territorries" when it only dominated in one single country because that single country loves to play with a handheld on every place you can imagine^^
