El Reg - can you obtain and publish the XBOX 360, PS3 and Wii sales figures for November and December 08 ?
From the very small sample size (10) in my son's school for Year 9 pupils, 8 got the XBOX360, 2 got a PS3. The reason for the XBOX360 was XBOX Live (which adds £40 per year to the running costs) - they play Halo3 and Call of Duty on line. If you add in the networking equipment and XBOX Live the cost of the XBOX360 is close to the PS3 so cost can't be the main reason.
It'd be interesting on a national and international scale how the platforms compare and if the Wii still maintains a lead...
