I think the PS3 numbers have been severly undertracked, especially this week.

There was an article a week ago or so with quotes from someone from Chart-Track talking about UK sales and how the PS3 had been outselling the 360 for many weeks in the UK. Someone went over to vgchartz UK weekly sales charts for the past couple of months and they had the 360 outselling the PS3.

The site's US and Europe numbers appear to be rigged to inflate 360 sales and deflate PS3 sales just enough to make their site seem legit.

They blew it in January with the bogus US numbers and now everyone is on to the scam.

Holy Crap...
1 Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (PS3) 374,607 - 374,607 [NEW]

and it sold this much in two days????
I wonder what the full game is going to sell like....

Well i guess it can be said that it was expected

very impressive indeed....and to think that alot of retailers were sold out..imagaine if there was more to go around....

and we dont know how many ppl downloaded the game also...
Shut this user up Let user speak
dude_uk - 644 days 18 hours ago
11.2 - I know
its exactly what I was thinking...

many people just chose to download it straight from PSN...
I for one was tempted to buy it from HMV online for 17.99..
and many stores emptied very quickly..
i want it...but can't have it... lol

but funny thing is....is that some people think that it is coming out on 360 too...
I was talking with a friend yesterday after college and i said...
"have you seen gran turismo 5???"
he was like "yes.. the graphics look sick"
and i was like " I know man....i want to get it but i don't have any money"
and he went "I'll just get it for the 360 when it comes out"

i wanted to laugh so hard...but it would have been embarrassing to do it inside the bus :P

anyway i told him that its coming only on PS3 but he didn't want to believe me so...ohh well...

13.1 - Nice try...
"360 isn't doing too bad for the year older console, against 2 heavyweights,"

Nice try so now the Xbox360 is the old underdog? What are you gonna say next "There where shortages"? Do better.

dude sales should be increasing when a console enters it's 3rd year on the market...not decreasing....something is wrong..and it aint no shortages.

seems like ppl outside of NA have lost in interest in the 360...!

Stop twisting reality until it makes you comfortable. The decline in sales that the Xbox360 is seeing coming off a price drop. I can't remember when a console has ever had a price reduction only to have a sales reduction follow.

You're tryin to make the Xbox360 seem like a last gen console which has now done it's time an had a good run with the new guys. When in reality the Xbox360 is failing against the very console you all looked down uppon and labeled a failure just a short year ago.

So again yeah "Nice try"

13.5 - PS2 didn't have that issue
Doesn't look like the PS2 or the nintendo consoles are having issues being old tech. Must be an xbox issue, oh well time for a new xbox heh :P

Yeah, 360 aint doing too bad considering it's... What??? Considering it just went through a price cut? Shouldn't sales increase after a price cut?

After all the shouting the Xbox camp have been doing over how GT5P is only a demo, your precious console hit 3rd place and got beaten by a demo even after a pricecut. Niiiiiiice!

360 did beat the PS2 so I guess at least that's something LOL

And I don't see too many PS3 fans agreeing with VGcharts unlike you Xbox fans from last year. Most PS3 fans have always considered their numbers bullshit.

Sounds to me like some people are grasping for straws now concerning the lacking sales of the 360.

EDIT: In Europe that is.

You need to come out of YOUR fanboy box first before you start calling foul on someone else. It doesn't matter what system you route for, vg chartz has always been suspect to scrutiny.

And secondly, "legit" info????

you're kidding right? You're quoting vgchartz of all places with this "legit" info

Nuff Said

I do like to see how the sales of GT5P are helping the PS3 sell like hot cakes in Europe. I guess iven the "demo" of a GT game can be a system seller. lol
