I think both consoles got boost from little game called, GTA

Yep, it's exceptional.

But I do caution too much optimism, darth. This is, what, 3-4 weeks of sales in America? It's a good sign, to be sure, but I want to wait for at least 2-3 months to see if this sustains itself, epecially given how Japanese sales went. It seemed like the PS3 had rreally surged forward in Japan, was sustaining itself... and then bam, right back down to last year's levels.

I doubt that will happen in America, but again, let's wait and see. Regardless, very good showing for the PS3!  

@Bod...

yes I think I will slow down the optimism....lol

This is amazing! Glad to see the Ps3's Hardware selling great, especially this time of year, WTF is going on? Anyways hopefully the momentum of the Sony monster continues to increase. As the Wii proved that the momentum can last a loooong time.

Look at how much ps3 is geting over 360 lol.. in total ... omg and in NA omg. LOL owned. blu-ray ownage!

On a side note the PS3 also reaches the 4 million mark in NA.

Why is Sony not having any supply problems then? Is MS DEFINITELY drying up the sales channels?

I think this shows the result when a few things happen:

1. You drop your primary SKU by $50 in the first 28 months.
2. A competitor comes in and starts offering added functionality for not much additional cost, even though you have a game advantage.
3. For some inexplicable reason, your supply channel is suddenly dry.

MS better pull their head out and pull it out fast if they want to keep the PS3 at bay in North America. They need updated SKUs, a price drop, and GTA advertising every place with enough room to slap a poster.

Other than that, things are really looking up for the PS3, though the real battle has yet to start this year. We'll see if MS has the balls to start testing Sony's mettle in the price war when GTA IV hits.

PS3 sales are great. I'm sure its Dynasty Warriors. LOL.

Actually, I think a big factor is how many releases the ps3 is getting this year compared to last. It an insane difference.

Actually we undertracked ps3 in America last month.

Damn, Wii makes another superjump as supply is increased. From 47k to 200K, wow!

360 may be higher next week too? I wonder if MS can increase their supply, or if they will announce a new SKU or something?

PS3? Doesn't make too much sense, unless it was some people waiting for the Blu-ray/HD DVD thing to end. We'll see if it can keep it up in the next few weeks.

edit: damn, DS just spanked the PSP this week!  Will PSP sales continue to drop?
