Despite heavy criticism of their new console, the Playstation 3, and its pricing, Sony have still managed to come out on top with regards to sales, and profit.

A quick look at the stats over at NEOGAF shows God of War 2 selling a whopping 833,000 copies in March, with GRAW 2 being the nearest game behind it with just 394,000.

The hardware shows the Playstation TWO is still selling like crazy (280,000, more than all the next-gen consoles), but nobody can slow down the Nintendo DS which remained in first place with a staggering half a million (508,000) consoles sold.

The Playstation 3 may be lacking in sales due to all of the goodies Sony packed into it causing the heavy price tag, but in time there should be a noticeable shift in people heading towards Sony's new console, especially when more appealing games come out.
