Interesting that the ps3 version of SF dropped below the 360 version.

 

 Why is this? Isn't the UK a more pro 360 country similiar to the US? I was actually suprise that the PS3 version topped it last week, was there a precedent when Soul Calibur IV came out?

Actually no. They are pro Japan. I go there every year...and they f'n can't stand anything we do unless we attach it to their greatness. There are cool peeps in the Uk though.

Um I think I got lost in a tandem, I was referring to the superior sellthrough of the 360 in UK compared with the PS3. No reference to nationalism here :)

When I say pro Japan I meant Sony. Oh well.

Seriously? Sony has some good rep I guess, but I find most of their electronics overpriced and gimmicky. Give me a Samsung LDC TV any day :D

Layton wasn't released in UK until November last year..It has some good legs but is prone to supply constrains from time to time...

Wonder how long it'll take to release the second game in the west.



Playing: Borderlands(great co-op,HUGE amount of content),Too Human(better late than never lol),Saints Row 3(Penetrator ftw),Minecraft 360,Harry Potter Lego. 

Patiently waiting for:  Tomb Raider, Borderlands 2

We expected Killzone2 to do this didn't we? Well I did...

It is THE one and heavily advertised shooter for the PS3 versus a RTS game on a console. Actually I am glad, that Halo Wars made it on no 2.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

Hmm Halo Wars.

ok Lets just say it does exactly 17.6% of Halo 3's First Week in Europe (908,192)

That Puts it at 159,841 Units.

Not too shabby, it will have better legs than Halo 3. should reach 1m in europe

great for killzone!

+ Thats 17.6% is just for UK

it could be selling at a higher % outside UK expect sales of Halo Wars to be

140k - 210k

and in America?? possibly over 500K for 700 - 750k First week maybe 1m
