Thanks for the results Xisi, although you were pretty slow this month. I even managed to get them on KFZ before here for a change

Surprised at how well the PS3 sold though...

Yeah, I'm getting killed at work. I should stop taking 1 mo vacations hahaha.

Options for analysis (I will do as you bid, NGW!):

1) Why MGS4 moved hardware so much better than GTA4 did (<--I think this will be the most interesting)
2) Nintendo and 3rd-party relations
3) The future of the PS3 in America

I go for option 1, why do you think MGS4 moved so much hardware?

I'm not on my computer at the moment but I will put together a stats package again like I have the last couple months. I'll most likely have it posted in the morning. I do have a couple new comparative stats that I haven't done previously.

GTA was always cross platform so perhaps it was not being sold by microsoft or sony as a reason to upgrade.

That doesn't seem like it would be enough though. GTA was so huge it seems crazy that no one was motivated to upgrade for it.
