Yeah, we have Gfk saying otherwise.

what is true what isn't?

It depends. Do you trust GFK or a random guy with 20 posts and no link?

No, you can tell its incorrect by simply looking at GfK data. Afterall GfK gets a fairly sample from retail and i can't see them being off by 40 - 50%... not to mention SONY reports shipments / sales-to-retail not sales to consumers



Chart track/GFK has made errors in the past. Remember this?

Anyone can guess. It takes no effort to throw out lots of predictions and have some of them be correct. You are not and wiser or better for having your guesses be right. Even a blind man can hit the bullseye.

"La serata di ieri dedicata da Sony all'evento make.belive è stata anche l'occasione in cui finalmente Sony Computer Entertainment Italia si è un po' "sbottonata" sullo stato della base installata delle console PlayStation in Italia; il tutto è stato raccolto dalla viva voce del suo General Manager, Gaetano Ruvolo. La situazione è la seguente:

- 4.550.000 PlayStation 2
- oltre 1.500.000 PlayStation Portable
- 680.000 PlayStation 3"
