and Playstation products

The single PES on PS3 outsold x360's entire SOftware library by almost 2:1 in October

No wonder Konami supports PS3 so much

[chaosatom]

They could make so much money on RPG on Ps3 in Japan that's its worth going mulitplatform.

[JOLLY1]

you're funny nasim

[JOLLY1]

nasim isn't funny at all!

[tortella]

even at 1/4 the price of ps3 no one wnats it except for some british

[Fobuo]

Italy is Playstation nation

[MaximusPrime]

So is Germany, Spain, France etc etc

[tortella]

PS3 has 85% market share in Middle east

same goes to India , Pakistan, China and other south east asian nations. Anything tagged SONY sels there no matter how expensive products are

[Bathyj]

That little speck of land just outside the United States called "The Rest of the World" is a Playstation Nation.

You think its fun to visit, you should try living here.

[aaquib09]

In the middle east, they're stacked. Therefore, they can make smarter decisions about what they buy since money is basically just a number.

[duarteq]

PlayStation Brand has 85 % of the Portuguese Market. Even Mr. Ballmer said that in a recent interview. that's why Microsoft will be opening Microsoft Game Stores in the next months... The last hope for them.

PS3 AND SONY ARE INNOVATION

[Sarcasm]

"The Rest of the World"

LOL that made me laugh pretty hard!!! bubble for you

[Fishy Fingers]

So... like their football.

[tortella]

but on PS3 and Playstation Brand

[The Matrix]

Italy is addicted to soccer.

[The Matrix]

What are your guys' problems? I didn't even say anything flaming your precious "football." I bet these guys gave me negative bubbles too, can someone help me out and give positive bubbles. Thank you.

[ash_divine]

wow, didn't realize how serious people get about the whole calling football vs. soccer thing.

@the matrix, I'll gave you a bubble bro.

well, off to go play some socc... I mean football.

[Bathyj]

You'll have to forgive us unenlightened slobs who use the term soccer. Usually its because we have many forms of "Football" in our country and "Soccer" isn't the most popular one.

In Australia we have AFL (Aussie Rules (thats what its called, Australian Rules, although we do rule, just clearing that up)), Rugby League (the best Football), Rugby Union, and Soccer.

Of course none of them are as good as Cricket.

[ultimolu]

And they say the PS3 doesn't sell software....please.

[OmarJA]

The 360 is not wanted in Japan & Europe FACT...

"Jump Out"

[Spike47]

that Sony messed up on launch, they could have made much much more money. :( And now they are still doing fine. Sony would be smart to toughen up the ads and bundles.

[Arsenal4Ever]

football not soccer. get it right americans. joking.

[heyheyhey]

argh... FIFA owns PES this year

[Why o why]

i play football with the default directional pad not analogue sticks (i know they can be changed just like the buttons to a more PES layout;). PES still beats FIFA imo

[dylandurden]

...we insanely love both football and PlayStation. :)

[foxeye13]

Yup,

And I confirm that here in Portugal we love our ''Futebol'' (as we say it) and our PS3... !!!ALOT!!! loool

(well I don't actually love football games as much, but IT sells like crazy here, top 2 selling games are at the moment PES and FIFa I think... at 3 is Little Big Planet... :D )

[Arsenal4Ever]

Europe FTW!!!!!!!!!!

[Sarah Palin]

The Italians love 2 things the most: Futbol, and that lil loveable ITALIAN plumber.
Does anyone besides me find this adorable?

[aaquib09]

Go back to Alaska.

[krouse93]

Lol i could actually picture sarah Palin saying that in that Alaskan accent

[eddyo3991]

In Europe, they Love Sony over Microsoft. When the Xbox 720
arrives, the PS3 will be cheaper and if Blueray is completely accepted, the PS4 and PS3 combination will deliver a knockout
blow to Microsoft.

[cmrbe]

The italians really are Soccer and PS mad.

[Arsenal4Ever]

Even in EU running at 500 euros+ we still buy the consoles. Cause Sony = QUALITY...

[OSIRUSSS]

Liverpool fc ftw

[eliasg]

PES is crap but still italian , greeks and spanish buy it...

[SnakeShady]

i'm embarassed that Little Big Planet isn't in this chart.

[Harry190]

Testing

[Sonydrone4life]

Oh boy 100,000 in a month. Gears 2 sold that in about 2 minutes. Can somebody post the sales for Uganda or Uzbekistan. The drones are getting desperate for some positive numbers. Two PS2 titles in the top five is pitiful.

[foxeye13]

I think you are right... Top 5 games, two ps3 titles, two ps2 titles and one x-box 360 title...

Now that I think about it, kind of embarrassing, that even the ps2 titles outsell the Xbox titles... Really embarrassing... Just shows that somewhere in the world people are just waiting for that price drop from Sony on PS3, cause until then, (outside the USA) people prefer their ps2 or Wii over Xbox...

So who should be embarrassed again??? :|

[Sonydrone4life]

Who should be embarrassed? Probably the company in last place. SONY and the Pstriple. HAhahaha

[Pika-pie]

They really like their football games
