So many people bad mouth how bad the PS3 has been doing, but this article finally puts things in perspective of how the PS3 is not seeling as bad as people would like us to believe.

You head about lack of games for the PS3. 59 games avalible at Best Buy now. 360 had 23 at this time last year. I guess the 360 is not going to do well since it did not have many games in the same amount of time.

Wow, the PS3 is doing better than most people think! The PS3 is selilng almost as much as the 360 did in its first 10 months, so 360 fanboys should shut up. And the wii is selling more than the 360 which is very sad because the 360 had a year head start.

that cant be true bc it had about 20 titles at launch and definetly had more than 3 by the time a year had passed

Nowhere in that article did it state any numbers about software. The OP may have misread the "23", as the chart tracks ALL 23 months of the X-Box360's SI numbers, while the graph only has the 10 months for the Wii and PS3.

These are for WORLDWIDE sales. The sales of the PS3 are not doing as well as the 360 did in the US during the same 10-month time-frame.

They'll surpass the 360 in 2-3 years (worldwide & US), I have no doubt.

Sony has seen a significant spike in PS3 sales in the UK!

I think we are going to see a huge sales spike come mid November when the 40 g PS3 and the 80 g PS3 price drop have a chance to hit the market. Even more blu-ray players in homes across the world is going to ensure BLU-RAY success!
