PS3 got Europe like crazy... And games like PlayStation All Stars or AC 3 will help a lot there. If Sony is smart they should do a price cut on USA for holidays, since the other regions are all in the pocket.

Deduce profit for a negligible gain in marketshare?

Wow PS3 has a big lead worldwide.

Ps3 is doing crazy in Europe and pretty good in Japan and damn even in USA the console is doing good!

Sony must be happy, i dont think they will win holidays, thats really difficult because of Kinect and Wii U BUT Ps3 selling like this is great it just shows there are still plenty of gamers out there without a Console.

My opinion still the same though : We need a new Generation of Consoles.

wow, Europeans still remember the PS1 and PS2 glory days.

And people tell me there's no brand loyalty.

Well, new set of numbers. I guess my previous comment still applies.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

It's called FIFA and a new model

My point exactly

Brand Loyalty is a factor; most people wouldn't deny that. But FIFA and the Slim are obviously the bigger factors for the last few weeks.
