was that when the new Bundles will be released too?

When will xbox's price cut take place? If it's last week, apparently there's no showing in xbox' number.

I'm going to say about 25-40% increase in sales. and 600-800K sales in Blu-Ray alone for GT5P + downloads (probably around 200-400K)

It was 3days of those numbers just posted.

It's only 2 days (Friday and Saturday).

Optimistic predictions for 2008 (Feb 5 2008): Wii = 20M, PS3 = 14M, X360 = 9.5M

this week is the week where in ps3 launched in eruope last year. euro/others sales last year was at 586k

and the movie bundle is coming out this week while the gt5:p bundle is coming out next week...hmmm...i wonder if sony timed this to try and get a sales growth verses march last year...though i highly doubt it.

price cut was 14th + 15th = 2 days only

It doesnt change everybody expected something better than just +5k
(UK PS3 sales = UK Xbox360 Sales = 19k = wtf ?)

I expect 100k for the PS3 du to the bundle.

Time to Work !

Personally, I think when the bundle GT5 Prologue will be released :

Hardware = 90 k
Software = 600-700 k

The impact of GT5:P will be huge!!! in EU.

Normal people dont know about forums or investigate sales or are interested with any of what is going on here.

One thing they know is Gran Turismo+Playstation+must have

I dont blame them though, good choice hehhe

I like technology when its moving forward..

80-85k steadily for at least 4-5 weeks, probably until MGS 4 and GTA IV hits and the real numbers start appearing.
I think we'll see 110-120k through springtime and even more come fall.
The real problem now is Japan, where the PS3 is flailing around like a seal on dry land, and NA numbers certainly have room for improvement.
Both those territories will come around eventually, there will be many software related reasons to own a PS3 (finally) this year and the hardware should reflect that.
