AMERICAN HARDWARE SALES (OF EUPHORIC SEXUAL GLORY)
Our brave friends across the Atlantic are continuing to STICK IT TO and RIGHT INTO Sony, with PS3 sales DOWN 18% during October. Despite the launch of some shit user-generating, administrator-deleting content game about being a teddy bear and having your hard work removed that was all the rage for about 36 hours. Here’s a list.
US HARDWARE SALES FOR OCTOBER, 2008
Wii: 803,000
DS: 491,000
360: 371,000
PSP: 193,000
PS3: 190,000
PS2: 136,000
ANALYSIS:
Selling fewer consoles when you’ve got your most important game of the year out AND it’s nearly Christmas is a 10/10 on the SEGA Saturn UK Launch Disaster Scale.
SOFTWARE SALES EQUALLY SHAMBOLIC
1. 790k – Fable 2 (360)
2. 487k – Wii Fit (Wii)
3. 375k – Fallout 3 (360)
4. 290k – Mario Kart (Wii)
5. 282k – Wii Play (Wii)
6. 270k – Saints Row 2 (360)
7. 231k – SOCOM (PS3)
8. 215k – LittleBigPlanet (PS3)
9. 202k – NBA 2K9 (360)
10. 193k – Dead Space (360)
The ‘We Died And This Is What Heaven Is Like’ theory gains strength.

Hahahahaha[snip!] @ IE6
November 14th, 2008 on 5:01 pm
Is good to see how pompous assholes die a slow death
November 14th, 2008 on 5:17 pm
Isn’t the site breaking in IE6 a sign that you need to install Firefox? Of all the bad things to come out of Microsoft, IE6 is the worst.

“So on January 31st 2001 we said Sega is leaving hardware. We were selling 50,000 units a day, then 60,000, then 100,000, but it was just not going to be enough to get the critical mass to take on the launch of PS2.” ~Peter Moore, on Dreamcast’s demise.
How much do you need Sony? You lost against the Dreamcast, the martyr of the videogames.
November 14th, 2008 on 10:31 pm
Looks like this HAHA deleting frenzy’s only made things worse.
Cocks.
November 14th, 2008 on 10:37 pm
Wii Fit and Wii Play is STILL selling?
“berin” – close to Berlin.
November 14th, 2008 on 11:45 pm
It’ll be nice to see how this list looks next month when it’s had more than a handful of days on sale…
November 15th, 2008 on 12:00 am
I’m from the Iberian Peninsula and I’m amazed you’re right, we have bought more PS3 than Wii or Xbox. Very ashamed.
November 15th, 2008 on 12:03 am
We should’ve let the fucking Nazis have the Iberian Peninsula to keep them quiet.
I bet the Volksspielnmachine3 would be awesome!

He who spends time regretting the past loses the present and risks the future.
Cunt – someone who posts pseudy shite after their comments
November 15th, 2008 on 2:32 pm
Zorg’s “HAHAHAH” deleting spree is almost as bad as Sony’s LBP level deletions. And just as funny.
November 15th, 2008 on 5:00 pm
>It'll be nice to see how this list looks next month when >it's had more than a handful of days on sale…
yes, as GOW2 should increase its lead over LBP even though it got released later than LBP..
typically idiotic, sony-loving, cunt of a comment from anon…. just fuck off and clean yr room or yr mum will have will spank yr fat arse
November 15th, 2008 on 8:24 pm
anon above: please kill yourself, you are equally a cunt
November 16th, 2008 on 4:25 am
I find it deeply ironic that us UKR veterans who positively pride ourselves on being cunts, use the very same word to describe the scum we detest.
It’s time we thought of a word 10 leagues below “cunt” to apply to PS3 owners, fans, and anyone associated with the stupid money hemorrhage that is “SCE” (or Sony’s Consumer Embarrassment as I like to call it).
cuntralidge : They commit it on a daily basis, which has nothing to do with my word verification
November 17th, 2008 on 5:41 pm
How about simply “Sony Owner”, which to all intents and purposes instantly identifies anyone as the worst possible kind of fucking idiot, ten levels below ‘cunt’.
November 18th, 2008 on 10:59 am
Haha. da ps3 iz fuckin’ shit. sony r losers. da xbox 360 is da shizzle my nizzle.
Yo – rawk on UK:R dudes. fight da power!
teh cell iz goin’ down y’all.
Sonic 4 da win an’ big up ur ting!
Respek.
