Those are old October figures reported by NPD some time ago. Meanwhile in November the 40 GB PS3 has been introduced in the States, which has significantly driven up sales according to Sony.


Yes, Sony claims an extra 30k - 40k a week...
...but that only an extra 120k-160k at the end of the month and won't be enough to get out of the cellar...
...the bigger question is - can it sustain that increase?


Edit: damn I own the 1st post of many pages in this thread...

Assassin's Creed does the double, Call of Duty 4 does the double, and Mario Galaxy makes an appearance near the top after only two days on sale. Well played, little man.

1) Assassin's Creed (360)
2) Call of Duty 4 (360)
3) Super Mario Galaxy
4) Brain Training
5) Assassin's Creed (PS3)
6) More Brain Training
7) Call of Duty 4 (PS3)
8) High School Musical (PS2)
9) WWE Smackdown v Raw 2008 (PS2)
10) The Simpsons Game (PS2)


2 days of sales was enough to get Super Mario Galaxy in at #3 ... which is ahead of the PS3 version of Assassin's Creed @ #5.

@ BrianK

Interesting, apparently the guy with his dusty PS3 is a professional actor:

Taken from NeoGAF:

"Redi Godshaw, the kid with the unusually dusty PS3, is a professional actor and has been paid to act on FOX shows before.

He goes on FOX news, with a horrendously dusty PS3, and it is never mentioned either that A.) He is a professional actor, or B.) His PS3 was far beyond normal levels of 'dusty'.

It just seems to me that FOX didn't provide 'fair and balanced' views of a problem with a foreign electronics manufacturer.

Gaf's thoughts?

Well, FoxNews are not well-regarded here...

@All

As this thread is growing way to big, again, it's close to locking time. Just about now...

Feel free to restart a new one, but as with this one it will be taken of the front page.
