GT5 12 months away. That is gonna hurt Sony massively. Here in UK it seems people have given up on PS3. My local game shop has decreased the PS3 stuff to 2 bays. While 360 now has 8 bays and Wii 12 bays. Same thing that happened to original Xbox and GC

Funny in Ireland the 360 only has two bays, PS3 Getting 5, Wii 6

 Yep I wouldnt know. Ireland isnt part of the UK unless you mean N.I. But I would imagine Ireland may follow suit as will EU if sales continue like they are.

@ blazinghead... what has Ireland got to do with the UK?

Nothing. I wasn't denying 360 had more shelf space in UK, i was just saying it was funny/strange PS3 had more shelf space in Ireland , the market being very similar taste wise.

Generally, in my local big town, the PS3 was doing quite well, then again... I haven't been there since the price cut.

Oh, and Ireland is an English speaking country...

 @bolded. What does that have to do with anything? Republic of Island isnt part of the UK. So it wouldnt affect UK retailers. In other words the small sales ROI put towards EU numbers are not corelated with UK's.

^ Look at fourth post in the thread.
