For its first week of marketing in France after its price drop, the PS3 had done a very good performance, multiplying its sales figures to a total of 37 000 copies.The second week seems to confirm the interest of gamers for the console since Sony's total sales should be around 20 000 copies. This figure has been unveiled by George Fornay, Vice-President of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) and CEO of its French branch, during an interview this morning and you'll very soon on Video Games Network. If sales show a decline logic level remains at a very interesting for Sony, until the crucial period of Christmas and New year will be decisive. It now expects to know the numbers of their competitors and, especially, a reaction now more than likely that the Nintendo Wii could soon find a lower price.

A similar drop across the whole of the PAL regions would put it at about 150K for the week.

46% isn't that bad a drop. If the previous week was mainly pent up demand you'd be seeing 55%, 60% or bigger drop.

Looks like PS3 could see another very good week in Others.

Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
