ah balls... those 360 numbers look like crap.

Let me guess the front page will show the 360 under 10 mill again!

The PS3 barely dropped. It's the 360 that had a bigger one. Compare last month's numbers, both are 4 weeks.

April
360 - 174k
PS3 - 82k

May
360 - 155k
PS3 - 81k

Either way it's bad business for both Sony and Microsoft. GET OFF YOUR ASSES AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! 



So is this it?

DS . . . . . 459 . . +20%
Wii  . . . .  375 . .   +6%
X360 . . . 167 . . +41%
PS3 . . . .   88 . .  -17%

Sony fanboys rejoice!



Reality has a Nintendo bias.

Sony must be glad the ps3 did not plummet any further maybe there is hope yet , to sell 81k systems at such an awful price and with ziltch games is a total miracle i expected 60k . MS have really got a problem great game library and yet 155k something is going on , maybe the hardcore gamers have not decided yet between the 360 or ps3 . Some might well buy a wii to keep them going until they do . I  would love to know what the ps2 brigade are doing so far amongst my friends its ps2>ps3 or wii . Though heavily in favour of wii right now , however a big but most agree the ps3 will appeal if cheaper , how much though varies . I suspect a price war soon , 360<$300 and ps3<$400 let the battle commence .

I would love to see PSP or PS2 numbers right now...

But I think this may be all the data we get for a while.

Don't forget, this is US only. 360 figures are a little lower than I expected, but probably about right. The data from this site does seem to be "pro" 360 though ;) [joke]

Difference between GBA and PS3 = paltry 100's
