overtracked by 320k is pretty serious

Maybe VGC counts a wider area or something? Otherwise that's pretty inaccurate.

No, not rly.

I translated the website using *shudder* babelfish, so excuse the poor grammar. But I would like to pick out some quotes from the site

With respect to this last data, Sony has been declared trusting of the attainment of the goal of a million consul PS3 in the houses of the Italians within been born them 2009. Between the merits of this acceleration marked from Ruvolo figure obviously the recent cut of price; also the fact that PlayStation 3 or substantially immune from the pirateria phenomenon contributes according to Sony to the happened one of its flagship.

The subtitle of the entire post is infact "The goal of a million PS3 within been born them in the Beautiful Country."

I think you should think before you jump to conclusions Dream1

Even if we go by old GFK numbers from the end of April:

Perculiar.

Also interesting that they say how many PSN accounts there are, and how many unique users - 470k and 280k respectively.
