UK game sales up 46%

First I should say: nothing to do with me. My money goes to the Japanese video games market.

Sales of video games in the US were up 46% this August compared to last year. Recently, Sony cut the price of the P$3 but $100 to "just" $500, and Microsoft cut the Xbox 360 by $50 to $350. This saw sales fo the 360 up 63%...but sales of the P$3 down 18%. Sales of the Wii were down 5% from July but were still the same as the P$3 and the 360 combined.
