Yeah, no shit. Fifa is obviously going to outsell Halo3 in every european country outside of the UK by virtue of it being on the three biggest installbases in europe : PS2, PC and Wii.

Pro Evolution Soccer is not as big as Fifa. Fifa is a much more established franchise than PE. PE may be the better game but Fifa has more licenses.

I'm assuming that Forza jumped due to hardware bundles right? That must mean the 360 got a pretty nice spike due to Halo 3 sales.

Interesting that the PS2 is still the primary sports console in Europe, whereas the 360 has overtaken it in the US.

I don't understand the Wii sales of FIFA at all of course.

And I would've liked to see Sega Rally do better, but it was clearly sent to die by releasing the same week as FIFA/Halo, unless it has serious legs it won't do anywhere near DIRT's numbers.

Hahaha, More Brain Training beat the Wii version of Fifa!

Also, RE4's gone now? I think I missed last week's thread - was it still there?

MySims shows some good legs in UK. Not bad, considering I have never seen any TV commercial for it and didn't know it was even released before I've seen it popping up in the PAL charts.

I see. So after all, you are not implying that an actual person, somewhere, is supposed to feel humiliated because of a sales chart.
Or do I have too much faith in humanity for negating this possibility ?

I have a feeling it's best days are behind it, unless it's sold out again.

Nothing to mourn about, though. It's already shattered Capcom's sales expectations.

Also, the most recent set of data seems to be showing that Wii owners simply aren't interested in sports games (or at least, traditional sports games. Then again, Strikers bombed in Japan...)

From Chart Track:

It’s no surprise that Microsoft and Bungie are No1 in the All Formats Chart with ‘Halo 3’. ‘Halo 3’ storms in as the second fastest selling game ever in the UK, behind ‘Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas’.

The UK’s love-affair with Rockstar’s PS2 San Andreas almost 3 years ago is still the benchmark for week 1 and lifetime sales. However, the PS2 installed base back then was around 6.6m (after 4 years) – Microsoft have to make do with ‘just’ 1.4m in less than 2 years. Released on Wednesday 26th September for the first time on Microsoft’s Xbox 360 format, ‘Halo 3’ was bought by 1 in 3 Xbox 360 owners in its first week, whereas 1 in 6 Xbox owners bought ‘Halo 2’ and back in PS2’s heyday (week 44 2004) 1 in 10 PS2 owners bought ‘San Andreas’. Although ‘Halo 3’ had a headstart on San Andreas with 4 days of sales in its first week rather than San Andreas’ 2 days, the launch is still very impressive, helping to more than double the sales of Xbox 360 hardware to the highest level shown this year and even beats Nintendo’s Wii for the first time since week 13 this year. 68% of Xbox 360 software sales this week were of ‘Halo 3’ (compared to 56% of PS2 software for San Andreas’ launch), pushing Microsoft’s format to its highest sales week ever (comfortably beating week 51 2006 which was the previous highest).

‘Halo 3’ is not the only massive game to be launched this week: EA’s ‘FIFA 08’ kicks off at No2 in the All Formats Chart with the biggest opening week of any FIFA game. The PS2 version accounts for 44% of sales, the Xbox 360 version 26%, 20% on PS3 and 10% across the remaining formats (PSP, Wii, PC and DS). The Xbox 360 version of ‘FIFA 08’ is the third fastest selling Xbox 360 game in the UK, behind ‘Halo 3’ and ‘Gears of War’. 83% of all Xbox 360 software sales were for ‘Halo 3’ and ‘FIFA 08’.

There are a total of 7 new games in this week’s All Formats Top 40 released by 5 different publishers – Microsoft, EA, THQ, Sega and Activision. The next highest new entry is THQ’s ‘Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights’ at No5, then ‘Sega Rally’ at No7 and EA’s ‘Skate’ on Xbox 360 at No11. Activision’s PC-only ‘Quake Wars: Enemy Territory’ can only manage No16, while THQ’s ‘Ratatouille’ sneaks in at No39 in anticipation of the film’s UK release on October 12th.

Summary:
Halo 3 = second fastest selling game of all time, after San Andreas
360 hardware sales more than double, 360 > Wii
1.4 million 360s sold in UK
360 has highest software sales week ever
FIFA 08 is 3rd fastest selling 360 game
Biggest opening week of any FIFA game

Annoyed by what ? By the sales-age people who constantly take these things way too seriously ? Hell yeah.
By FIFA 08 Wii poor perfomance ? Am I supposed to be just because I'm a Wii owner ? I don't get it.

Your watching at the wrong time. Last weekend, I switched into some cartoon shows on Kabel1 or RTL2 and there was a commercial. It's clearly targeted at children.
