That baby looks braindead from playing too much Halo.

Well, according to numbers PS3 with less time on market overtook 360 in Europe. With a massive price cut and heavy advertising 360 is selling a little more than PS3 in Europe right now (if I go by numbers here).

So they've stopped PS3 increasing gap for the moment but according to previous press releases PS3 remains ahead overall in Europe LTD. But marketing is about spin and perception so they're hardly going to talk about that, instead they'll focus on short term and hope the economic crises pushes more people onto their console over Christmas.

Why not? At least, MS delivers marketing and not bunch of psycho alien girls ;)

Last week Gears 2 sold 46k in Italy, so the boost was expected but 2-1 is just amazing. And in Spain 360 is also outselling PS3. It seem only Japan is left where PS3 still outsell 360 by 3-1 even after huge price drop.Bad times ahead for PS3 but price cut will undo the damage done by 360.

I'm pretty sure these companies can't release inaccurate statistics.

From this article :

Microsoft has sold 7 million in Europe, and Vgchartz is showing 8.6+ million in Europe+Others, i think it's a bit overtracked.

Thats what some people thought for the states a few weeks ago when M$ released that info. I tend to believe them after seeing the NPD #'s for America. I am pretty sure that Corporations releasing false information on purpose is illegal as well.

So it is confirmed then that the 360 is undertracked big time in Europa?

Good job they were a year early...
