It's selling very well in Australia as well. I can't recall if it was said to
have beaten both rivals in some part of that country. It shows it has
potential. It shouldn't be a localised effect... it's a network effect. All it
needs is that initial momentum and the price cut has just boosted PS3 sales in
Amazon by 2500%. Overnight! Some companies have other interpretations, but I
haven't bothered posting these. You have to find out who is with whom. Some
companies invest (game wise) in one particular console.
