73% Of Mass Effect 3 Sales Were On Xbox 360

Did I miss the memo?  Is Mass Effect 3 on the PS3 a broken mess of a game?

I suspect not, but it seems like the buying public didn’t really want the PS3 version, with just 14% of sales going towards that platform, at least in terms of UK retail.  73% of buyers bought the game on 360, with 8% opting for PC.

Other juicy nuggets emerging from today’s charts update?  The majority of sales for Rayman Origins were for the PS Vita version (37%) and more people bought Rage for 360 than for Sony’s platform.  Probably because it was available for about £3 from GAME.

If nothing else, the charts show that, even without GAME, large budget, heavily advertised titles will still top the charts, with EA’s RPG behemoth sailing proud at number one.

Really handy, that.
