PS3 Launch in France official numbers (PS3 won the launch weekend)

Yes, you read the subject line correctly: France. The place where everyone claims the PlayStation 3 launch was a complete and utter disaster. While the launch events may have been a disaster, it's important to be able to separate those from the actual console performance upon launch. In that respect, France gave the PS3 a very, very nice welcome.

Despite the reports of the PS3 selling 600,000 units across Europe in two days, one cannot help but speculate what each region sold in a similar period. According to George Fornay, prez of SCEF (F for France, silly), said that the number of units sold in France over a two day period totalled to 78,000. He expects the 100,000 mark to be passed by the end of this coming weekend. This number trumps the 360 and Wii launches for France, even the PS2 only sold a bit over 60,000 units. Awesome! Keep it going, Sony!

Yeah right.

France bombed compared to Sony expectations. They set their standards way to high and then just let gamers down. 

haters owned btw the GTAIV trailer suckedR-Dot-Yung

Yeah it did. Speeding up to show the shadow effects is so lame, and the graphics are too cartoony for a GTA game.

Least it looks better than the PS2 graphics. :lol: Oh and I guess the PS3 can't do realistic graphics after all. :roll:

When Microsoft starts posting PS3 pics to sell its games or makes up fake fan websites to boost handheld sales you won't look so foolish.

The 360 has the better GPU so why would the graphics look worst on the 360 version?

I got to admit your Sig is very clever. ;) Oh I guess Sony fanboys have a lot of time on their hands to come up with something like that since they aren't playing any games on their PS3s.

We can't help it that Sony is good at meeting the demand for their console. We can't help it that Nintendo has a hard time equiping a Wiimote to a gamecube.

Last time I checked I saw games were being made for the PS3, and the Aussies must have loved them cause 7 were on the top 10.

So you don't deny that the Wii is nothing more than a Gamecube with a Wiimote, nice one way to go.

I was reading a thread today comparing Wii graphics to the Dreamcast and I am sorry to say but the Dreamcast had it beat. Check it out its still in the first page of SW. Not intending to flame though, but that my opinion.
