If I am not mistaken, hasn't 360 sales dropped in Others every week since Halo Wars released, including a 20k drop on release week?

----------------------------

2-weeks?

More like 7-8 days of combined data between 2 territories.

 

 I find it interesting how you describe Halo Wars being released in terms of weeks yet make sure to pin down KZ2's release in terms of days, even though it was released before Halo Wars.  Way to be subjective.

Anyways, this gap will be wiped out by Japan's PS3 sales and WW sales should be pretty close either way once again.

red bolded part: he was using the same argument haters used against kz2 (counter attack?)

green bolded part: him answering a question of mine

no it doesnt count as a price cut, it is just a cheaper version of the console, would any1 say that the 160GB is a price increase, no it's a different model.

Well the thing here is that nobody ever brought up and was bashing on Halo Wars numbers. If you read my post history I already admitted that Halo Wars numbers are extremely impressive, especially considering the fact it is an RTS. You will find that in last weeks numbers thread.

You just can't call one bundle that actually gave a boost "sad" when there was a Halo Wars bundle, that even came with Halo 3 only to have sales drop and then respond with "Doing it's thing".

 

It may seem completely subjective but the point wasn't really to point out Halo Wars, but to show that people are wrong when they thing Killzone 2 bump that week wasn't impressive when it in fact really was.

 

Also read Blackstars post. I didn't even realize you took two completely different conversations and tried to spin them around on me, lol.

Then what you're saying is, technically PS3 only had 1 price cut?

PS3 never had a price cut in Europe, only the introduction of the 40GB model if I am not mistaken.

Also PS3 has in fact ONLY had 1 price cut, of $100 dollars, not $200 like many think.

And just like that PS3 returns to last place.

Bit surprising it dropped that much to be honest what with Resident Evil about to be released.
The worrying thing about this week last year there was nothing out but this year PS3 fell below those numbers even with new bundles and a sort of price drop. You can pick up the KZ2 bundle and LBP for £269, that is a £30 ($60) price drop. With recent high profile games out and RE5 to come i guess it really does show how bad the recession is and how bad that is hitting Sony. This week last year the top PS3 game was Army of Two with 50k sold. How different a year makes hey?

I really wish the PSP sold better outside of Japan.

 

60 isn't bad for the psp for now

I think lbp is gonna give it a big boost :)

 

if it didnt give ps3 a boost, even after all the hype.

why would you think nthe psp would get a boost from it?

 

sound illogical if you ask me.

No, the launch price tag was for a different model, the 40GB model is different. Sony never said it was a price cut, it's a cheaper model. If microsoft brought in a different model at a lower price would we call it a price cut? i doubt it.
