WOW IM SO EXCITED. *goes off to PLAY some games.Bromz

I find that funny everytime I hear this one. Yeah right your going to play some games. Why are you posting on the forums and clicked on this thread.

Holy heck; why does france not like the 360? :? It's so weird that it's like half an hour through the channel tunnel from the UK, yet the cultural differences are immense.

The 360 sells really well in the UK consistantly. Yet it fails completely such a short distance away elsewhere.

I love it how they also completely fail to realize that when a console gets more sales it gets more support, and usually ends with the rival platform losing support. It will be the DS and PSP all over again.

surfer, you give sheep a bad name. For a long time they hadn't posted anything about sales, and just let the others squabble about the PS3 selling a little more. Now you're bringing back the sheep sales stereotype. Feels good to be a manticore nowadays.Shinno441

Oh cmon! i bet if the ps3 had those numbers they would use them
