Yeah, but if you go to the actual best sellers list, PS3 slim is still top, and there are no Xboxes to be seen:

The top selling Xbox is the Elite + Halo 3 F2 at #36

Of course, this will all change as the price cut has only just been introduced

Well, Elite already moved to N17 and Elite + Halo 3 & Fable 2 Bundle is at N18.

@munkeh

Yup. That looks about right.

@whatever
True. This thread is misleading. Sounds like a desperate fanboy trying to grasp any straw.

I think these rankings are based on the pages most visited.

It's the "movers and shakers list" for the games whose sales rankings changes the most

Lol and both are the same price, who are the dumbasses that are choosing to buy it without 2 games?

# Xbox 360 consoles in the top 50...WOW...has that ever happened before? I think the price cuts for both consoles will spur sales, and force Nintendo to make a cut for the Wii this holiday....ofcourse, they will also say it was part of their plan...lol

The 360 isn't going to beat the PS3 on that list or this holiday season. The 360 had a small price cut (and a price increase aswell) but the PS3 has a big price cut and a new model which is certainly something people have been waiting for. The old PS3 wouldn't even fit in some tv furnitures, atleast not without enough room to ventilate heat. I think it will do especially well among older gamers who were teens in the PS1 generation. I don't think it will steal much of the Wii's thunder but the 360 will certainly suffer.

What part is the price increase?

Just to be sure I get this straight the PS3 had a "big pricecut" of $100, and the Elite had a "small price cut" of $100. Is it a matter of perspective or is there a difference in the two amounts?

OT: I agree that the amazon charts are fairly useless, but I would rather be number 1 on those charts then not.

Thanks for the input, Jeff.
