1 - PS3 sales have increased 2 fold too....wii tops again

43k from 23k last week

the 40gig will see PS3 sales past 100k mark easily

wii has taken back the lead. BUt great sales for X360 too atleast in NA

@evil angel

Ratchet came out on the 23rd(limited release) and was not available everywhere until the 30th (TODAY) .

This is also VGCHARTS sales figures . keep that in mind. VG changes sales stats almost regularly

we all know u EVIL ANGEL = ROUND PEG = POWER OF F**

expect same numbers for Ratchet next week since it is now available at all retailers

@GAYSTATION

u are the only G** BOT in the forum. There are only few bots in here and u are one of them. each XBOT has to create many accounts to match the ps3 fans in here

There's only one Playstation 3 fan and that's Nazim. And all the other diehard PS3fanboys you see posting on this site? They are all nazim. He just keeps opening multiple accounts to make it same as though there's a large PS3 fan base.

I also find it hard to believe that vgchartz is listing R&C as only 97k to date while Ace Combat 6 has 110k. Since when did Ace Combat 6 become such a big thing here in the states? I hardly ever hear anyone around here (this site even) talk about it, usually its all Mass Effect for the 360.

" R&C as only 97k to date while Ace Combat 6 has 110k. Since when did Ace Combat 6 become such a big thing here in the states? "

Uhm, you *do* know that the Xbox 360 outnumbers the PS3 by almost 3:1 worldwide, and in N.America, by roughly 4:1.

That R&C sold 97k on 2M PS3's is pretty good. AC6 is a moderate-to-low seller.

Xbox 360 owners by far more games per year, and, there are vastly more of them.

If you follow the charts, next week R&C will likely sell about 40k - 50k. However it should sell about 300k total. Although Heavenly Sword only ended up selling 220k units to date.

4.2 - HS has sold over 500 k in EU already

HS would be selling very well during the holidays too

dont discount the holidays champ

HS has sold around 300 k in NA ....It will keep selling very strong during XMAS worldwide. I predict 2m for HS in its lifetime

@person below

HALo 3 is also bundled in across EUROPE>

HS was no 1 in Australia,Spain,France and Germany during its launch week.

It outsells Halo 3 all over EUROPE except UK . even in UK ps3 sells more than x360

In EU it is either ps3/wii/ps2/psp ...x360 doesnt even exist there. same goes to Japan

Heavenly Sword was used as a Pack-In in Europe and it counts as units sold. It doesn't mean that the consumer actually went out and purchased HS.

Are we looking at the same article? How does that explain that the PS2 version even got out sold with its huge install base?

360 people buy games and that is one thing the console has over them all.

The ratio of how many 360 owners bought Halo 3 last week to how many PS3 owners bought Ratchet and Clank is...very marginally in favor of the PS3.

Give R&C another week before passing judgment...it's likely a lot of people don't know that it got moved up a week. Now, if it's still struggling after a few weeks, that would be a shame. It's a great game (finally got to play it on a friend's system) and I hope that PS3 owners realize that.

I would LOVE to have it on my 360.

But if its less then 150 thousand next week will you think theres a big problem with ps3 software? Seriously...no one else think somethings wrong where sold ps3s is wrong?..how does a install base of 2 million consoles, with their best game too date, sell less then 100K...I dont buy that it was officially suppose too be in stores on the 28th and retailers got limited quantity. halo 3 was in stores weeks before release.

Can we atleast stop posting all these bs Amazon news stories? Appearantly Amazon sales figures are not an accurate representation of game sales in general. It seems the only thing the Amazon stories are good for is flame bait.

N4G isnt the real world. Here, on N4G, the PS3 is vastly superior hardware to the Xbox 360, it has all the good games, the sales are higher, the games are better, and EoJ was "sold out everywhere".

Reality doesnt match what the forums on N4G say -- not even close.

20 - no surprise...

I knew GH3 on 360 would be the biggest seller although it came out a day later than the end date (interesting). Happy to see Ratchet get a great start on the limited release. My local Best Buy, and Toys R Us didn't put them on the shelf until this morning, expect to see the same number for the next week.

Wish Zakk n Wiki got more love!!!
