The 360 and PS3 were almost dead even despite nothing coming out exclusively for PS3. Normally the only time this happens is with Fifa this gen. It's kind of weird for Dead Space (which sold more on 360) to draw it even so what could possibly explain this? To any UK members, was there special advertising or something?

I'm honestly not sure if you're serious. Sorry I'm ignorant to how things catch on in Europe, and I've heard some people say Wonderbook is doing alright in some regions

some Microsoft exec made sure to advertise Sony in a interview

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

haha ok for some reason I remember someone said it was popular in Spain or something but it probably just had one good week or something

Still wtf is going on with this there seems to be a sudden evenness this week when 360 always leads this gen for no reason!
