Despite the obvious fight to be top dog in the home console sales war, Microsoft and Sony executives usually play nice. Sure there is the odd criticism each way but generally, there is some respect and professionalism present. Then along comes Microsoft’s Aaron Greenburg.

According to recent sales reports, the PlayStation 3 by Sony is beating the pants off the Xbox 360 by Microsoft in Europe. That’s fantastic news for the gamer’s loyal to Sony out there.

The Playstation 3 is currently in a definite third place in worldwide sales, although momentum seems to be building for the machine, at the cost of the Xbox 360. But how long will that momentum take to build to a sufficient level to take the Playstation 3 past the Xbox 360, and then potentially beyond the Wii too?

The Xbox 360 is in an unstoppable winning position in the current generation’s console battle. Apparently.

While consoles such as the PS3 may appear to have a higher concentration of good games, knowledgeable gamers may also consider the total number of quality games currently available for each console before buying. It seems that on this score, the Xbox beats the PS3 and Wii quite convincingly.

We always knew Grand Theft Auto IV was going to sell well, but the unit sales, and dollar worth of those sales in the first week after release, which has now been officially revealed, is still shockingly high.

Violent media sells in many forms today, but the question seems to be, is it an influence to steer us to being more violent than we would have been in it’s absence? I would argue yes and no, depending on the situation. I would also argue that it can help us think more about morality and life in general.

What happens when adverts for a video game get pulled as a result of real life violence? Why, someone gets sued of course.

It really just wouldn’t be fair to the hordes of Wii fanboys who harass the comment sections of my work here at Gamer to let the coals cool for too long before giving the fire a helpful poke in the right direction, so to that end, here’s another legitimate media entity that thinks the Wii might not be all rainbows and butterflies: Forbes thinks that the Nintendo Wii could suffer from not offering Grand Theft Auto IV, one of the best-rated and most anticipated games to date.

Wii Fit has sold massively in Japan since its release in December 2007, shifting over a million units and helping keep the Nintendo Wii at the top of the games hardware charts. It recently launched in Europe, and is already sold out in many high street retailers. Next, it’s the turn of the U.S. to get the game, and retailers are looking at intriguing new ways to market the game/lifestyle device.
