    Interesting data. Hard to use Madden as a judge of overall sales numbers due to American Football being rather unpopular in non US territories, but an almost 2:1 ratio is hard for any publisher to ignore. The pathetic showing on Wii is a bit confusing though. Did it get bad reviews or something? What about SoulCal 4 on PS3? Thought that would be big in most territories but it doesn't even show on the charts. Also interesting is the number of consoles sold. With the wide knowledge that there would be a price cut on the 360 the next month, it still outsold the PS3. With the huge boost in sales after the price cut this is going to put more than a crimp in Sony's Style.
