US Week Ending 01st March 2008
Wii: 218,189 (+176%)
Xbox 360: 102,622 (+17%)
PS3: 89,585 (-5%)


Worldwide, the PS3 was 2nd
Ending 29th February 2008
Wii: 375,643
PS3: 179,416
Xbox 360: 152,619

Actually, VGChartz should NEVER be taken seriously. It is a estimate that is OFTEN wrong. Even HMM employees have warned against depending on it. I believe only the software sales in the US are accurate (if that).

Yes it's a great system, as I own one too, but if you own a Honda...are you on the Honda site calling Chevy's..."Shitty Caveliers"? If people understand the 360 has a higher rate of failing...whatever floats their boat. I just think the people who buy the 360 vs. PS3 are two different consumer types....dumb and smart Sorry...just had to fit in with the thread

The PS3 is going to be the center for all my entertainment needs...I box vs. more on the shelf is much better for me.

I said good day...

I think it's in response of all the mud and false information that has been thrown from the MS and their 360 fans. Now, it's time for I told you so(s) and other forms of ridicule. Revenge is a dish best served cold.

They know that the XBox 360's life cycle has already reached its climax and is going downhill now!

I know. Are they forgetting that the PS3 ACTUALLY has shortages? The 80GB PS3s have been unavailable for some time now in B&M stores.
