WTH? Why is Sigma in such a low place? That game needs to be among top 5.

1.1 - Sigma has been floundering...

Ninja Gaiden Sigma has been hovering in the high-twenties to low-thirties range over the last week. During that time at least three 360 games have consistantly ranked higher.

3 - Not very good for the PS3...

Who would have thought that Amazon Japan's TOP 100 Video Games & Hardware list would have more 360 games listed than PS3 games.

The 360's Trusty Bell is currently ranked at #2 while Oblivion (360) comes in at #5.

The 360 Core bundled with Trusy Bell is ranked at #32, so yes, games do move hardware.

The rankings are updated hourly so fluctuation in rankings is to be expected. However, checking the TOP 100 over the last week has shown 360 titles consistantly holding both higher and more listings than PS3 games.

Folk Soul, an anticpated PS3 title, is currently ranked at #46 moving up from a mid-sixties ranking earlier in the week. It has not generated the same level of interest as the 360's Trusty Bell which has been in the top five over the same period.

I thought you Sony fanboys called Resistance and Motorstorm great???

And what about Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Oblivion, COD3, Rainbow Six: Vegas... sound pretty good to me!

PS3 buyers are just dissapointed in their system, it's collecting dust it seems

Since MGS4 and FFXIII have high positions in Famitsu most wanted list, I hope PS3 does way better in Japan at least.
