Target also have 360 Halo 3 and Assassin Creed for 39.00 ...sould out of AC for 360 (still plenty of PS3 version) and two copies of Halo 3 left. Oh and Viva Panata for 14.99!! Grr I paid 40.00 for back in December because my daugther want the game. (It's a horrible boring party games, I though Mario Party was bad ... not sure how game like Viva Panata Party get release....despite being casual games or whatever, kids know good game from bad).


 Wow, pretty good prices. Especially for VP. Here in Japan the game is/was included in their holiday Pro/Premium value pack along with Forza 2. I picked up a new copy of the Forza 2/Viva Pinata bundled games on Yahoo Auctions JP for about $25. Pretty good deal :)

 On topic: There is no way the PS3 will outsell the 360 this week. I think it's time to say good bye to several pro-PS3 VGC members for about a week, hahaha

gebx - even though they were in short supply (lol) vgc still tracked it higher. and i still havent seen a significant boost to prove there werent people getting their 360's. (like you and all the MS fanboys were preaching)

 @gebx

 You just lucky VGC over tracks 360 and under tracks PS3 consistently otherwise you will be away for 3 months. Just look at how close the PS3/360 were for the first 2 weeks of March.

 

VGChartz Hardware data for the period 15th Mar 2008 to 15th Mar 2008:


ConsolePS3X360
America
63,820
69,167

VGChartz Hardware data for the period 08th Mar 2008 to 08th Mar 2008:


ConsolePS3X360
America
66,780
72,978


That's about 10% difference, well within the margin of error and considered a statistical.

 Didn't you bet against NPD weekly sales too? How are you going to validate that bet?


http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?start=100&id=19350 Already been answered Here it is again... I've tried to be as fair as possible kingofwale said: hey gebx, I have a question. Say if VGC reports xbox winning 3 of 4 weeks, But from NPD number, it shows that PS3 is in fact, selling better than xbox (like what happened in Jan), what will happen then? I mean, I love VGC, but I have to go with NPD number since it's much more accurate of the two. gebx said: If NPD shows PS3 won over the 360 I'll eat crow... and all bets will be annuled and everyone will be off the hook but again, I'm pretty sure NPD will show 360 beating the PS3

Well technically, but it's more like a stay of execution(ban) for a little while until the results can be verified.

I have a feeling though that the NPD will rule in the 360's favor for the month of March.

Hmm... seems like the PS3 won this week in the Americas. This means all will be solved next week. The expectation builds up...

I agree with you. If I were them I'd just accept my week ban and get it over with (if thats the case next week) so I could be here for when GTA4 comes. (and the pre GTA4 threads)
