Well there are a few reasons:
1. PS3 sells much more worldwide than in NA. They are very popular in Europe (except UK its 60 to 40 for 360) and Japan (don't let the 5 week X360 win streak fool you, they have made gains of thousands, while PS3 leads like 2.3 mill to 750,00)
Ex. PES (soccer) for PS3 sold 400 k compared to 150 k (360) in Europe.
2. Ubisoft makes 65 percent revenue in Europe. + Haze was released, it ended up making decent profit.
3. Yes, Microsoft might have higher royalties + piracy might play a little bit into this.
People keep bringing up NPD numbers but in reality, WW sales are bigger than NA, and PS3 has that over the 360.[ Guru ] [ Level 17 ] [ Rank: 570 ]bids

This same sort of report came out from EA saying that PS3 was their largest earner. Could someone explain how that happens when NPD sales numbers and GfK/ChartTrack show the SKUs for 360 consistently sell more than PS3? Confused by these reports[ Oracle ] [ Level 21 ] [ Rank: 148 ]bids

indeed we bring up the NPD numbers but I also mentioned GfK and ChartTrack and other than PES, every other game has sold more on 360 than PS3. also what is the source for the PES numbers?
