Default PS3 leads in Resident Evil 5 sales thus far

Hundreds of Japanese gamers lined up overnight across the region yesterday for the release of Capcom’s hotly anticipated Resident Evil 5. Thanks to some quick blogging over in the Land of the Rising Sun, we can also reveal which version of the action horror sequel Japanese punters are favouring.

Surprisingly enough, despite having sold roughly 300 percent more consoles in the region, the PlayStation 3 version of Resident Evil 5 is reportedly outselling the Xbox 360 version by more than 400 percent in total.

[PS3] Resident Evil 5 (Capcom) - 222k
[360] Resident Evil 5 (Capcom) - 56k

Though this may not be too surprising from those who realize the unbalance in install base, the percentage difference in sales is significantly higher than expected. Hopefully Capcom takes notice of this and realizes the potential for profit is there for future titles.
I think i just pulled a cyg... LoL... but im just reporting, you decide
