Wow I thought the Wii was leading the pack in sales but looks like Xbox 360 has hit number 1 again.

What gets me if the 360 was in the PS3's shoes on sales the PS3 fans would still be hating on the 360 saying its a pile of crap etc, even with the 360 being number 1 they are all hating on it saying all sorts of BS.

I am no fanboy, talking about a system that is good at what it does which is play GAMES and has loads of GAMES and online etc people think 'oh look stupid fanboy' well I dont think there is anything wrong in speaking the truth.

What I hate is that people act like the XBox 360 is the best thing on the planet, but they never have any justification for it (apart from sales figues, and Live, which don't count).

games?

The 5.6m PS3 sales were the official sold figures released in September, Since then sales have increased worldwide and it has now sold about 9m.

The 360 was actually the lowest selling console worldwide for the last few weeks. It sells more than the PS3 in the US but in Japan last week the PS3 outsold it 6:1 and in Europe it was outsold by the PS3 nearly 2:1. A lot of (very dumb) people seem to think the 360 is kicking the PS3's ass but the PS3 is actually catching it very quickly and will almost certainly overtake it in total sales within the next 18 months. You should remember that the PS3 sold over 100k more than the 360 last week in a period when the PS3 doesn't really have any of its big exclsuives out yet the 360 has games like Gears of War, Bioshock and Halo 3 boosting it.

Here are last weeks worldwide sales which should shut up the idiot 360 fanboys and put things into a more realistic perspective;
Japan
Wii - 352k
PS3 - 57k
360 - 7k

Europe
Wii - 284k
PS3 - 246k
360 - 142k

US
Wii - 325k
PS3 - 143k
360 - 188k

Total
Wii 962k
PS3 448k
360 337k

It should also be pointed out that in its first year the 360 shipped 10.3m units while it has only shipped 7.4m in its second year. You don't really need me to point out that represents a 30% drop in shipments in a period that should actually have shown an increase if things were going to plan.
