And then it had amazing numbers that made the PS3 a force in europe? Yeah maybe we should hold off on any Elite is not selling threads because I forsee future ownage. It may not break records, or have a 100% sell through rate, but I imagine it's selling much better than rabid fanboys want you to think.

Plus, sheep and lemms faces were red when the ps3 actually did well on the euro launch......

The PS3 is not a force in Europe. People in Europe are still quite satisfied with their PS2...what the hell makes you think they will run out and buy a PS3 for 800 bucks?

Of course it is. So many people are deluded or enjoy making up stories just for their own sad humor.

It did sell well, until all the hardcore sony fanboys bought theirs. Then it started dropping weekly.

The ps3 was sold out on all online retailers, in uk, germany, and italy. It wasn't sold out in france. You could still buy xbox 360 on almost every online retailer, go to walmart, circuit city, and best buy. They all still have xbox 360 elite's. You cuold almost go into any story and buy it. It was and will be considered the worst launch in probably video game history. I will expect the sales to lower for xbox 360 not higher the next month because of this failure.
