Silent Hill: Homecoming European release pushed back
Irem making Spelunker for PS3, Disaster Report for PSPSales of Sony’s PlayStation 3 console in Japan have doubled during the period of July 23-29, with the latest Media Create data revealing that the console managed to shift a total of 28,829 units, compared to just under 12,000 units from the previous week.
PlayStation Portable sales were also up for the week ended July 29, with the handheld selling just over 35,000 after dropping to 32,894 the week before. Sales of PlayStation 2 were down from last week, however, with Sony’s last-gen console selling just fewer than 12,000 units, though still selling higher than any other previous-gen system.
Furthermore, Sony continues to maintain its lead ahead of Microsoft's Xbox 360, which, despite a spike in sales, continues to lag far behind with just under 4,000 units sold during the same period.
PSU Says...
Well, this begs the question: An auspicious forecast of events, or just a bump in the ever-changing chart track? You decide, but we at PSU certainly feel that times could be changing for Sony in it’s native country, and with any luck, drive the console to gather enough momentum to hit the ground running for 2008; a year that is undoubtedly going to spell the most important yet for the firm’s next-generation system.

I love japan and their sony fan base, but i hate them for even thinking of playing wii's let alone buying them lol, but sony is already moving, moving to the top
Sony really rocks and Ps3 is really the true next generation. and i feel really sorry 4 those guys who are still with their 360. Guys got an advice 4 u go and buy a PS3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333.
sony ROXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX and gonna dominate 2008. mark my words.
and 1 more thing 4 the Wii fans, go n grow up. n if u really wana play something out of this world, go n buy a PS3.
that's nice, go PS3
Sony needs some help. I think we all should just try to motivate the friends who have a Wii or XBox to trade.
But hoe far ahead is the Wii?that is my question
My bad i meant How far.
psn id: gingo... this is definetely good news and this means soon sony will capture 2nd spot at least
who cares about nintendo? they shouldn't be included in this console war. Think about it. the Wii is like those Tiger Brand games from Toys R Us compared to the real contenders.
WHY PEOPLE BHAVE THIS WAY.WE ALL KNOW THAT HISTORY IS REPEATING ITSELF. JAPAN MUST BUY PS3, XBOX360 IS NO CONTENDER IN THAT REGION AS A NEXTGEN MACHINE. PS3 HAS A WIDER VARIETY OF GAMES COMING VEREY SOON. IF YOU GO TO THE JAPANESE GAME SITES YOU WILL SEE PS3 GAMES COMING OUT THERE ARE JUST WHAT THE DOCTOR ORDERED. I MIGHT EVEN IMPORT A FEW, BECAUSE PS3 JAPAN GAMES CAN PLAY ON US SYSTEMS.
SONY FOREVER!
Yeah, Sony is moving some serious consoles right now. I think by the end of 08 Sony will surpass M$. I actually doubt M$ will sell 12 million 360s in its life.
360 will always be dead last in Japan.
It was about time!
It is good news to here.
Nice, very nice indeed.
its a good thing for the ps3 and its only a matter of time that the sales for the ps3 get a real boost with all those exclusives just round the corner now
