1 - Ps3 #1 on vgcharts in software and hardware. hmmmm.
Looks like ps3 version would sell more than xbox in the long run at least in Europe.

love that photo. Ps3 is crushing xbox underneath. And wii is trying to crush ps3.

1.3 - Yes, but
It's hard not to notice that Nintendo owns spots 3-10.

1.4 - @ the killer
the ps3 may have sold more in Europe, but the ps3 has no sold more in the "Others" region. vgchartz reports the 1 million difference there and not the Europe region.

so even if vgchartz is not accurate, you cant blame them for not adding up their own numbers right

2 - Wii continues to roll -
but the PS3 is clearly pwning the lot of European next-gen gamers. Europeans are so smart.

(waits for vg chartz beatdown comments)

2.2 - That is correct hotshot -
my 60GB went down on 7/4/2008 and I have yet to get home and return it to Santa Monica. Once I get home I will add you on my 20GB. I'm actually thinking about picking up an MGS 80GB just to have bases 1 thru 3 covered. I suggest that you send a message to both
Maddens_Raiders and
Super_Maddens_N4G or even
Kaz_Yamauchi
as the last time I checked they were both full or nearly full. Take care.

2.3 - LOL Maddens, Cover Those Bases
And I thought I was a bit OTT for considering the 40GB Gun Metal as my second PS3, You might just have convinced me!!

No..that side has ALWAYS been s**t!! Even when Xbox360 before sold more VGC always overexaggerate the 360-sales for some reason! It´s pure bullocks that side and no one should even care about that site!

Why does this crap keep getting posted it can't be trusted. It is almost like its getting posted because the numbers say PS3 leads despite it being true, VGC is proven to be BS week after week yet its almost like a *see my console is winning* type of thing.

If these charts is anything remotely true, then I'm surprised GTA: San Andreas on PS2 hit above the top 50 lol

10 - It's just a benchmark...
But not something to swear by. These charts simply show how Europe is still pro-Sony. Great news for Sony and Nintendo.
