LinkSynopsis:
The beginning of the end of an era -- the PS2 appears to be going through the early stages of its death throws (if this sales trend continues of course). That is the lowest I have ever seen it.
ME2 is on fire (and sounds like it deserves it).
No Bayonetta on top sellers.
Everything else seems pretty respectable.
