Healthy opening weekend software sales boost record breaking launch. Just as it revealed that Resistance: Fall of Man and MotorStorm had swept into the top two spotsin the all formats listings this week, ChartTrack also confirmed that overall, PS3 games were sold at a software-to-hardware ratio of 1.65. Considering the price of the console, this represents a significant success for platform holder Sony, although its predecessor PS2 boasted an opening weekend attach rate ratio of 1.67. The high volume of software sales meant that the new Sony format put in an impressive showing in its debut week at European retail. Six new PS3 games entered the top ten, with 13 in total across the all formats top 40. Five of the 13 were also PS3 exclusives.

Ummmm, 1 + 5/12 does not round to 2, otherwise you might as well say that the PS3 is a year old.  Rounding like this is great for the Wii, 1 year on the market and the thing still sells out within 10 minutes at best buy each sunday.

That's one year and 5 months, go back to school, and an attach rate of 1.6 doesn't seem good to me, wasn't the PSP the fastest selling handheld in the UK, where is it now compared to the DS? hardly damage control

what's scary is to bring down the attach rate from people who have 5 or 10 games.... there must be some people out there with 0 games!!! hehehe

How do you know? you live in most other countries? Here in Holland Belgium and Netherlanths the sales are better than x360s.

 

Apparently you don't know anything, so shut up.

what's your point? PS3 is owing 360 cos it's out for a couple of months (days where i'm from) and people already have 2 games, while you x360 gamers have your console for a year and only have 5 games? 

 Man, that's such an weak argument you gave us.

Heh, i myself have 20 360 games. 1.65 isn't horrible, but the 360 has had a fairly high attach rate since launch. Yes, it's been above 1.65 since launch.

That's not fair, it launched globally and had more units sold than the PS3 this time last year. Now lets cry.

 I know we Dutch are proud of our country but to name it twice :lol:

 

OT: 1 or 2 games attach rate is not bad this early on I guess.

That's what I usually do myself, get the console and 1 or 2 games to get me through the first week(s)

Yeah, because the population of the UK is 20% of that of the US, 20% of the market size of the US and wait for it...

even with the launch, the PS3 is still behind the 360 in sales, in the UK.

 

Thanks for trying....bye bye now...

 

 

PS-   an attach rate of 1.65 is PATHETIC.  The 360 has an attach rate approaching 5.

BTW, Resistance and Motorstorm are the only currently released exclusive games that don't suck, so of course they're in the lead. After all, they are Halo and Excite Truck rip-offs.

I like your calendar.  According to your rules the PS3 has been out over a year too..Nov 06 to March 07....that's a year right?  How's still sitting in third place taste?

 

The 360's been out 1 year and 4 months....
