Nice.

Edit: Surprisingly good sales for Wii Rock Band. It's a shame we still won't get the real version.

[TheRagnCajun]

woa I'm waaay off!

[TaKeRx]

WOw

[Frillen]

yeah!

[Mama Robotnik]

[szaromir]

Nintendo domination yet again. Wow at Civilization being in Top 10.

[Dante]

PENDULUM SWINGING!

Weeeeeeeeeeeee!

[Holtz]

HOLY SHIIIIIIIIT!

[Count Dookkake]

So how'd that Snakebump work out?

[Xyphie]

Woah, MGS4 out of top 10 already?

[MiamiWesker]

Oh god, MGS4...

[jman2050]

So 360 was 2nd in the HD race...

[TheFightingFish]

Nice to see Civ. Rev on there. Hopefully we will see more strategy games done right on the console from here on out.

[Bricfa]

very interesting.

[The Faceless Master]

oh my

Many thanks to NPD for their support. HW DS 608k Wii 555k Playstation 3 225k PSP 222k Xbox 360 205k Playstation 2 155k

Pwnageee!

[Zombie James]

PS3 and PSP still outsold the 360, even with the price cut. Wow.

[Opiate]

Almost no effect from the price drop for the 360. Steep drop both in raw sales and weekly sales for the PS3.

Wii sales down in raw figures but up in weekly figures.

MGS4 completely gone, already. Bundle is presumably still selling well, however.

[solid2snake]

but but but 360 is supposed to be second :(

[BenjaminBirdie]

Man, who said he heard the 360 got like a killer $299 boost?

Yikesville!

[Pai Pai Master]

Whoah.

[FreezeSSC]

didnt the 360 have a price drop?

[Kyoufu]

[Mama Robotnik]

[RBH]

Xbox 360 205k

Wow, that's pretty mediocre.

[thuway]

WTF... PS3 beats 360???

[gutshot]

Wow @ cheap port Rock Band!

Guitar Hero World Tour on Wii could have ridiculous sales if done right.

EDIT: Star Trek gifs are the new LOTR pics.

[Zihark]

Hey i was pretty on with the PS3 numbers.

[Fredescu]

360 dead and buried?

[yoopoo]

Access to top 20?

MSG4 dropped like a turd.

[BLaZiN PRopHeT]

wow i was way off. and im shocked about the 360 numbers


didnt think MGS4 would fallout of the top 10 until next month.

[iceatcs]

OMG PS3 and PSP above the 360 mini price-cut.

[timetokill]

Wow, for some reason I had forgotten about NCAA Football ...
(at least, the game... looking forward to another great Trojans season )

Nintendo continues to clean up, it seems. We could be seeing some of these titles throughout the rest of the year!

[Coin Return]

Metal Gear out of the top 10 is surprising.

[jman2050]

but but but 360 is supposed to be second :(

Second to last?

[bathala]

Civ Rev. pwned MGS4 :P

[Sho_Nuff82]

MGS bump over, 360 20GB bump is barely noticeable, mediocre numbers for NCAA, great numbers for SC first week, WTF at Civ Rev making the top 10.

[BenjaminBirdie]

So how'd that Snakebump work out?

I don't think that's this month's story, my friend.

[John Dunbar]

didnt the 360 have a price drop?

i think the gamecube got those as well.

[Jammy]

360 needs help, both in terms of hardware and software. Its versions are no longer outselling its PS3 counterparts by a huge margin.

Wii domination. Everything Wii is supply constrained and Wii Fit STILL almost takes in the top spot of the month.

MGS4 drops hard.

[Pasco]

wow, 360 price drop does... nothing?

[goompapa]

Bye bye Solid Snake, those fans are HARDcore

[donny2112]

$50 ain't nothing, Microsoft. Drop the 60GB to $299 with bundled games this fall, or you're going to be in some trouble.

:( at PS2 NCAA 09 not making the Top 10. That means the Software Predictions will only have results for four games this month.

[Aladuf]

:( @ MGS4 already being out of the top 10

[mr stroke]

ps3 still beating 360? whats going on here?

[Omikaru]

Woah... Two surprises for me; no MGS4 and PS3 is beating 360 again.

[Kusagari]

How is 360 still behind PS3? Seriously, that's gotta be freaking MS out a little.

[djblackice]

MGS4? Come on Snake, you can do it.

sad face :(

[antiloop]

No MGS4 means NA fails.

>p
